Love the salad (without croutons) and the pasta and meat sauce was tasty

All I can say is yuck....Tried it several times. Pasta is undercooked and covered in watered down sauce. Also tried grilled kabobs, totally over seasoned and overcooked. We received a gift card for here for Xmas, still haven't used it. Pretty sad when you don't even want to go get a free meal.

I tried the gluten free pasta. Never again. It was overcooked and was more like glue than pasta. I was very disappointed and will not ever be returning to this particular Olive Garden.

My experience tonight at Olive Garden was excellent. The waitress was knowledgeable about my options. Then the manager came over and acknowledged that I had requested for gluten-free options and insured me that they would change gloves to maximize safety. Then a third person came over to serve food and he pointed out that it was gluten-free and that they changed their gloves when making my food. I don't have allergies, but I am sensitive to gluten. I don't know if it would be safe for celiac, but it was safe for me.

I just went to Olive Garden, stated my allergy, and then ordered Gluten Free pasta option they have, if I dont remember wrong it was Gluten Free Rotini with meat sauce. I didn’t get any reaction, (I usually get respiratory and skin reaction to gluten) and it was absolutely delicious!!!

I have eaten here twice and both times it was great! The servers are knowledgeable and their menu has everything labeled well so you can see what you have to choose from! They also instantly knew and aknowledged no croutons on the salad as soon as I mentioned a gluten allergy. I do wish they had more sauce options than what was listed.
