    Food was okay but the customer service was horrible. Felt like the lady who served us had a bad day, she didn’t serve well.

    Our fondest dream just came true. We just left Disneyland and came to the truly happiest place on earth: Olive Garden on Tustin. And they gave us....bottomless Alfredo sauce with endless breadsticks. Thanks to Eric and company...they are truly magic workers. We can die happy.

    Best customer service we have received in a good while. After having a bad experience with hosts at the Santa Ana location, we drove to this location. I'm so glad that we did, we were celebrating my nephews birthday, and we were a party of 10. Hosts was really friendly, and we were seated quickly. We had 2 servers (Chris and DJ) best servers ever!! We will definitely make this location our go to because of the service we received. If you're visiting here with larger parties, these two as a team rock, highly recommended.

    Service was good. Coffee was good. Eggplant parmigiana is my favorite here so it was good family time. Veggie soup was great. Ambience is fine. Lot of families. Better to make reservation. I visited on week day so had to wait for 15 minutes.

    Place was quite busy when I visited, but we got a table really fast. The waiters and waitresses are so pleasant. In my opinion, service and quality went downhill after the pandemic at many restaurants, but not Olive garden!! They are my first choice when I go out to a restaurant. The food is always good, fresh, and delicious. Service A+. They still offer the same great food and service, no changes. Thanks for that!! 👍

    First time visiting this place, our service Vicki was very friendly and have so much patience. We loved their unlimited breadstick, soup or salad. They were not busy when we visited Sunday lunch....will recommend this place to visit....also, enjoyed their shrimp and chicken carbonara.....A++++

    There were two ladies that served us the night of Dec 22nd. Jackie and another gal that starts with “k” who was sooooooo nice and professional!! Loved that experience!! Please let me know her name so she can be recognized.

  • 4/5 Lawrence W. 3 months ago on Google New
    I'm not a big Tipper, but I was so impressed with this waitress name Jackie. However! She received a big tip from me . She came to my table about six or seven times, asked me was everything okay, and I like that. I told two of her coworkers, they need to be like her, and I told the manager, I appreciate her service, she's a good one, keep her. This was the one in Tustin.

    Even though Olive Garden is a nationwide chain, or for that matter a worldwide chain, we always have good food at Olive Garden. Today was no different! The food was tasty. My wife ordered the chicken parmigiana, and I ordered the tour of Italy. We always fill up on the incredible breadsticks first, so never have enough room left to eat the entire meal, but no need to worry, they are happy to provide take home containers so you can finish the food later! Our server was so friendly and attentive! Very good experience! The only thing that I can say negative is the price of eating out of getting is getting so expensive, and Olive Garden is no different. For the two of us, almost $60.00, not including tax & tip. Still compared to other restaurants still a reasonably good value.

    Service was absolutely amazing! It was packed that night for dinner but we received all our courses quickly and our server Adrian even brought a birthday dessert for my son celebrating his 23rd birthday without us even giving him a heads up. He saw our birthday hats! Such a great night thanks to our server and team!

  • 1/5 Hristo V. 9 months ago on Google
    Place was great until just now. I have been visiting the place for the 5 days each day having my dinner. I always sat at the bar and because people like Daniele and Abby are great, I always chose to sit there. Today, all of the sudden I was told that I can’t have more than one bottle of wine for the night. For 23 years living in this country, I am facing such issue. I know it’s not Daniele’s fault, but she was the bad news messenger and I really feel bad for her. Management, don’t try to parent your customers. This is how you lose them. I don’t need you to control my consumption of anything. I wish I can put -5 stars!!!!

  • 3/5 Rich V. 1 year ago on Google
    Ordered to go today for me and my daughter Order using their app not over the phone Had to repeat myself like 5 times They gave us silverware for 1 person even though the receipt said 2 Daughters pasta was undercooked and chicken tender was terrible my daughter spitted it out Chicken scampi was fine and so was the soup and that’s why I am giving at least 3 stars

    I went here today. Our server Chris was great. When I did have a problem the manager came over and was so kind about the situation. This is the best Olive Garden I have ever been too. We will only be going to this location from now on. The food is great and it comes out quickly. Just a great place to go for a nice lunch or dinner with friends or family. Also if you are thinking of getting dessert get the tiramisu. It is delicious!

    Last minute lunch outing with the kids and decided to try Olive Garden! Kids have never been to that restaurant, and I haven't been to an Olive Garden in years! Very clean and quiet location. The staff was great from the moment you walked in! As we walked in, we were quickly greeted by the host and escorted to our table by another professional employee. A manager (I assumed) was walking around greeting guests at tables, making sure everyone was content. Our server, Jordan, was AWESOME!!!!!! Very professional, attentive, and patient with the kids (all under 11 years old)!!! One of my petpeves is having an empty drink during my meals. Jordan was on top of it!!! I did not have to ask for refills for any of our drinks!!! Made our experience pleasurable!!! Thank you Jordan for the EXCELLENT service!!!! I go out a lot and I notice a change in customer service in today's time. Jordan is a perfect example of how great customer service used to be and should still be!!! Thank you again!!!! Jordan definitely deserves a raise!!!!

    Been coming to this Olive Garden for years. Service and food is always top. Our server Jordan and team took great care of us.

  • 5/5 Abel F. 1 year ago on Google
    Absolutely wonderful service at this location. The wait was a little bit too much, but the food, the staff and overall experience was wonderful. Our server Luis was the best, really attentive all night and he got our orders out really quick. My family and I will definitely be coming to this location again.

  • 5/5 Alicia M. 1 year ago on Google
    My father doesn't do well with loud music , too many peoples talking at once. They were seated in too loud of an area but we requested to be seated in a closed section and they did and worked out great! We got a server in training and she had the best attitude ever. She kept up with our bottomless soups and was very kind. Food was great. Tasted very freshly made. Best experience yet!!! Great job sweetie sorry I forgot your name.

  • 5/5 Barry F. 1 year ago on Google
    I went for the never ending pasta bowl. The whole experience was great. Parking is easy, I had immediate seating, the wait staff was very friendly and the food was hot and flavorful. Five stars.

  • 4/5 Shin K. 1 year ago on Google
    Lunch special is good. The price is between $10-12. You may choose one from soups or salad with the main dish. There are not that many people during the lunch time in this place.

  • 5/5 Jazmine B. 1 year ago on Google
    We got a table right away when we walked in & our waiter was excellent. He always made she if we were good or needed anything extra. The food was nice and hot when it came out and the wait for it was very small. I give this place a 10/10 It still has not disappointed me.

  • 4/5 Inpudicus L. 1 year ago on Google
    Been coming here for many years. The service and food quality is better than some other Olive Garden's around but there is one better near by. We come to this one half the time because it is closer to our home. Over the years we've seen quality here drop and climb again. So overall, this location is good. Not great, but good.

  • 5/5 Judy L. 1 year ago on Google
    We were here at 1 pm on Saturday. Not busy and the service is pretty good. Spacious and delicious food. Endless soup and Salas always our choices to pick. The kids meal is a great deal and y two kids ( 4 yr and 7rd) finish all the food on their plates. Definitely will come back again and again.
