Worst experience on mother's day. Over a hr wait, get inside and half the restaurant is empty (can not be blamed on COVID spacing as most tables were seated side by side). For how slow the service is they are over staffed, I'm talking 5 servers in a area large enough for 3 tops.Now let's move on to the food.... If you look at the photos that is a rotten onion that was pulled out of our soup that tasted moldy.When brought to management nothing was done other than giving us a little over $5 off of each $6.99 soup that we barely ate before finding that bad onion in it.
I had a great meal at this olive garden. Our server was fantastic and the food was good. I highly recommend this Olive Garden it was delicious.
Appetizer was good and hot. We had the fried mozzarella cheese. The salad was not up to par. One! Yes I said one. One olive in our salad. No cheese, not even offered. Our entrées took over an hour to get. Again not offered cheese. Was told by Marion A. that he was going to comp us two adult beverages, but was charged for them and they weren't even what we had order. This was at 2789Miamisburg Centerville Rd. Dayton, Ohio
I love the pasta here & I love the steak however each time I order it, it’s under cooked. I ask for well done no pink however as you see it’s always medium well. Unless your eating in the restaurant & can send it back to have them make a new one I wouldn’t bother if a picky eater. When I called the manager didn’t ask what they issue really was or how she planned to coach her team to correct the issue as I indicated this wasn’t the first time just we can credit your card if you like. What I would like is to place an order for my steak & be able to know that when I make it home to eat it @ the bare minimum it’s going to be cooked to the standard in which I requested.
Food was delicious! 1st experience was bad, the server never even gave me water and i had to hunt down the table-ware. My second experience, Corina (the server) was AWESOME!!! 10 stars for her!!! She was so kind, friendly, and an overall great server!
Great staff, friendly service! Especially quick serving of food if you know your order when you first sit down like we did. Wait staff was on the ball and attentive but not overbearing. Food was hot and fresh and delicious! Since we ate on a budget that day, we shared all our dishes and they were more than accommodating to divide our meals accordingly and help us choose our meals to stay under budget. Very pleased with our visit!
We went to Olive Garden for a date night. Were looking forward to it as we had not been there for quite a while. It was awful! Service slow to begin with, but we took that in stride since lots of places are short handed right now. My husbands food was a very small portion, thrown onto the plate in a very sloppy fashion. In addition, it was burned - cheese from lasagna was burned crispy on the plate. He told the server, and she did not even offer to get a manager, or to take his meal off our bill. So we spent almost $50- for an awful meal. Next time we want Italian, we will go to Fazolis. Less expensive and the food is always at least edible.
Tried to make a reservation for 5 days from now for 15 people or reserve a room. Willing to pay a deposit. Talked with Manager and was turned away saying they wont take a reservation due to staffing issues. Even though its 5 days before and that gives them plenty of time to line up employees for that day. I guess they are doing so well they dont need my business ......
I will say the food was good. My waiter, Colin, however not so much. After he took our initial order and brought our food he never came back. My entire party of 4 went without a single refill. We also ordered the Neverending alfredo sauce for our breadsticks and had enough for 3 breadsticks amongst us. We asked for more when he brought our main course. We waited 40 minutes and had to ask another waitress to get our waiter so we could get the check and leave since no one was in the mood to stay longer to order dessert. If not for the waiter, the experience would've been fantastic as we love it here.
At about 4:30 P M today we visited the Centerville, Ohio Olive Garden.Our Check # is 29153. We had to wait 3o minutes to be seated because they only had TWO servers but THREE girls at the front acting as hostess. We asked for a booth and walked past two of them on the way to the table we were escorted too. Our waiter was so busy talking to the people at another table, that we had to call to him to get his attention. As we sat waiting to be seated we witnessed a family of five, and two couples turn and leave because of the wait to be seated. I have NEVER experienced this kind of serve at an Olive Garden before and I am not sure if I will ever return.
