I and my friend Ryan had a server name Stacey at the Miller Lane Olive garden who was the best server either one of us has probably ever had in our entire lives not only was it a great dining experience with good food and them accommodating us with a showing up minutes before closing but we had a friendly great personality server who went out of her way to make sure we had a great meal if you go to that location make sure you request Stacy as your server and tip her well as she deserves it. And I just realized while taking photos of the receipt that we were even there a half hour after closing and they were still extremely courteous

When the server first approached our table of 8, she “jokingly” chided us to not order just water. She made a relatively big deal in that we needed to order regular drinks, e.g. soda, tea, etc., and again “jokingly” said if we did order water, she would give us a hard time. Although some of us felt uncomfortable, we took it in stride and all but one ordered a soft drink. We also ordered full meals. She chided the one who ordered just water. When we got the check, we noticed that a glass of iced tea/soda was $3.49. We can only surmise that she did this to increase the tab and tip. Although the service was quick, food was good, and the hostess very friendly and helpful in getting us a table of 8, the “do not order just water” took away from the meal experience. Regardless, she got at least a 20% tip (there were separate checks), but we suggest this practice of shaming people who only want water with a meal be stopped.

Absolutely 5 stars for customer service, food preparation for takeout. Placed a large family meal on line. Set the time for pickup. The order was ready on time when arriving at home the food was perfect lasagna was hot with the soup and bread sticks. The salad was cold. They where very generous with plasticware and utensils. Everything was perfect for a family reunion. Thank you for a great meal.

We absolutely love Stacy. She is so amazing every time we come here. She honestly makes our family laugh and just sets such a relaxing and fun atmosphere. She’s thoughtful and not only kind but extremely hilarious. Truly, she makes eating here a true delight. The world needs more of Steph.

Great job. The place was clean and welcoming as you would expect from an Italian restaurant. The pleasant aroma of garlic and sauces filled the air and the seating area was spacious. The food was prompt and delicious. We have a slightly picky child and the wait staff was very accommodating with just the small things.

Stopped in to celebrate my grandsons 2nd birthday! Had a great time ,Jordan our waiter s was very cheerful and was quick to help with suggestions and with keeping our salad and breadsticks full(THANK YOU!) FOOD was outstanding !

It's just always good here.. food, service and atmosphere... our waitress was awesome... I wish I could remember her name!

Guest relations reached out about my review below and my next order was great. I ordered same specialty order w the mushroom sauce and it was perfect. Salads were fresh, food was hot, service was quick and friendly. Thank you! ***Check your carry out order! Salads were not fresh and the custom make my own pasta order w chicken shrimp and mushroom sauce had a teaspoon of mushroom sauce. And the food wasn't hot. I was there early for my scheduled time. Disappointing when you spend that much on dinner and tip the carryout workers 10%. Someone should be doing a quality check.

Our servers were prompt and friendly. Drink refills done right. Food was prepped to order and delicious. We were a larger party so having no option for call ahead seating is a draw back we will consider in the future. It was drizzling fur the first 30 minutes of our wait and we had over an hour wait and options for that wait were benches outside (in the rain) or sitting at the bar (not 8 seats available and 2ppl in or party could not sit in high top seating) or in our own cars. Would suggest choosing a less busy time for large parties (6 or more) as we were there on a Saturday evening. Also check weather to be sure outfit bench sitting is feasible. Again, once seated service was excellent and we all enjoyed our meals and getting to chat and visit a bit. I fur one enjoy the music, too.

It could be cozier. I don't need a blanket or anything, but it does feel more like an Applebee's (not the actual food) than a restaurant I'd spend $110 at for three people. I feel like we sat quite close to other diners. No alcohol. No app. 3 entrees, 1 lemonade, 2 waters, 2 desserts. My portion of seafood alfredo was very large, it was noodles and noodles and NOODLES. A bit of shrimp and scallops... let me be clear, it taste great. I would go back sometime if my kid requested it. The salad & breadsticks are a classic; I think I pay for the nostalgia.

Chicken gnocchi soup tasted like FLOUR! couldn’t make a medium well steak. I didn’t even get to eat. Go to the Olive Garden by the Dayton mall 100000xs better !

Tanner, our server was EXCEPTIONAL! if you were in a bad mood before he greeted you and remained it's because you're an _ _ _ hole. My entire experience was great and it was because of Tanner! Thank you Tanner for your OUTSTANDING CUSTOMER SERVICE! Put him in management!

Was seated and waited for 20 minutes to be waited on. It's not like they were busy, hardly anyone was there. Two servers waited on the tables across from us and never knowledge we were even there. No have you been waited on or someone will be with you in a minute or let me get the manger. Tried to stop one but they took off too fast. So we left without ordering. My husband and I both said something to the 3 ladies waiting to seat people. Not one of them said to us "Please wait and I will get a manager".

Loved the lunch deal. We had the all you can eat soup, salad, & breadsticks. The food was delicious served in a timely manner, temperature was perfect & the atmosphere was lively & energetic. Our waiter was engaging, attentive & it was due to her professionalism in the restaurant thats what made the experience worth the 5 star rating . It's a great place to dine in & take the family to.

Great place for Italian , very clean and everyone was super nice , great for quite date or family dinner....

Elizabeth was "on it" with her wonderful customer service and her bright, welcoming smile this afternoon. We enjoyed our meals, and it was very refreshing to have a pleasant waitress.

It was my birthday 🎂 🥳 and my friend Kim took me out for lunch. We had a great time with the BEST waitress Stephanie. She gave us great service, but she was more like a friend. She gave me cheesecake with a candle in it and had me to make a wish, I had to give her a hug. Thank u Stephanie for treating us so kind. I just sorry I didn't take pictures. So when to my favorite restaurant, ask for Stephanie 🤗. Have a Blessed Day!

Our server was amazing! She was a new hire and she was very good! Our food was delicious and we enjoyed every bite! The servers name was JADA J. on Miller Lane in Dayton OH

The food was good. Our server Stacy was so sweet and super funny, she made the whole dining experience fun and stress-free! Even know they were busy, she always made sure we were happy and had everything we needed!

Seated in less than 15 min. Waitress was very knowledgeable personable and professional. Food and service was excellent. Always a ys a good experience at Olive Gardens. I would highly recommend. Highly recommend. Very clean. God Bless

Very great customer service, great food, and great overall cleanliness. Our waitress was Abby, and she did phenomenal, great and friendly smile, amazing suggestions, and got our food to our table promptly and safely. I would definitely recommend this to a friend, and will definitely come back.

My family and I had the best sever I have ever experienced at olive garden. Her name was Naomi and she was very friendly, fast, and efficient. She got us our menus and bread sticks right away and had the food out as fast as the order went in.

The food was great. Ordered the endless soup and salad bar, salad was great, bread sticks were good and the chicken gnocchi soup was out of this world. Ordered shrimp scampi which was amazing. The waitress was great, checked back several times. Clean restaurant and friendly staff.

Morgan was our server and she was amazing! The food was hot, it didn't all come out at once, nice atmosphere, friendly and polite staff. I highly recommend Dayton Olive Garden over Lima, Ohio's. Just saying 😉

The food was absolutely delicious. They were really busy but the food came out on time and was delicious. I have been going to Olive Garden in different cities for a long time but this chicken parmigiana hit different. We got a table next to the bar and the waiter was very friendly and nice.

We had a 10-15 minute wait at the door. But once we were inside and seated. Receive our menus and before you knew it we had our drinks and our salads which were good and fresh as well as the breadsticks. Our waiter was on time with refills and the food we ordered was very full. No complaints from me.
