    Sicilian Scampi was outstanding though $10.00 for 8 shrimp, sauce and bread seems a little extravagant for an appetizer. Also had the Tour of Italy which was good but the chicken parmigiana could have been better if they opened up a TV dinner. Restaurant was clean, friendly and service well above par. Would probably return again.

    I had the Four Cheese Pastachettis, served with Italian sausage. I love the salad and bread sticks; fresh out of the oven and a dusting of garlic. The flavor was probably five stars but the sausage certainly wasn't hot off the grill, with cooler spots throughout, but still very tasty. Overall it was a pleasant experience and I'd be happy to go back. Our server was Shane, and he was attentive and fast; my drink never got empty. Our entire visit time was probably an hour 15 minutes. But don't get the chicken parm. I'm told the beef medallion over pasta dish is fine.

    Let's go have dinner at a place that we know to be quick and reliable we said... Boy were we wrong. From the moment we walked in, the experience was nothing like anything I'd experienced before at other Olive Garden restaurants. The waitress showing us to our seats obviously struggled with this simple task (I would hereby like to apologize for making you get up and walk 20 feet). As she walked us to our table, she asked where the bus boys were (smart to bring your customers' attention to the fact that the place was a mess with a lot of uncleaned tables, but couldn't really blame her as I was wondering the same...) We were there on a Thursday night so the place wasn't all that busy, but service was extremely slow... Our waiter (Aries? Not 100% sure - couldn't understand his mumbling very well) had to be reminded to bring out salad and breadsticks (given how little salad they gave us, maybe they were hoping we wouldn't remember that that's what this place is famous for so they could save some money?), which eventually he did. The rest of the food (two very standard items on the menu) took an extremely long time to arrive. My food was okay, but the breaded chicken in my coworker's dish looked so gross he ended just eating the actual pasta. So overall, very very disappointing experience. It will be a while before I dare to step foot again in an Olive Garden.

    Great dinner. Whole wheat pasta with sun dried tomato sauce was excellent. Clean quite atmosphere, excellent all you can eat salad. Friendly service. Hard to find good quality food at a reasonable price, that healthy too.

    Worst OG me or my husband have ever been to! Went multiple times and every time was a terrible experience! From being seated (table not even cleared yet), hot salad plates, small salad portions, crappy breadsticks, terrible service, and terrible food! We will never be back! The OG in Bossier is absolutely amazing!

    Nice location with decent food. The restaurant itself is visually appealing and they appear to be doing a good job of keeping the place clean. The service, from the hostess to the waiters, is usually very polite and helpful. The food here is sadly just mediocre. It's not bad but it's also not good enough to stand out. Nothing special enough to warrant coming more often than once a month or so. My one real complaint with this location is that it's very loud. Every time we go it seems there is just way too much noise to be able to enjoy your meal. This is also a large part of why we don't go more often.

    The restaurant is nice but I don't like the taste of food. Most of them are salty to me. *_* Also, the service was not really attentive.

    Slow service. Bread was cold. Server rang up our bills wrong at the bar. Awful.

    I know this isn't the greatest restaurant in the world but we had a gift card. Normally, I enjoy Olive Garden. The salad and breadsticks rock, and there's usually a decent plate of spaghetti. The breadsticks and salad were great, but we had about a twenty minute wait for the entrée. We had already gorged ourselves with the starters, and at this point, our server seemed a bit rude. By this time I was ready to go, but we haven't eaten the main course yet. When it finally arrived, I could see that my wife's and middle daughter's dishes had been sitting for some time. It was a lackluster finish to our dining experience.

    Okay. Go ahead and do it. Go ahead and rip off any street cred stripes off of my sleeves that I may have garnered through these years because I'm about-ta throw down an Olive Garden review up in this Yelp, and I knooow that Olive Garden (or, as I call it, "The OG") may not be all "hip" and "cool" and it isn't filled with all skinny-types, all tatted up with arm sleeves of tattoos and piercings (customers or staff), and it isn't dark and otherworldly, tricky or hard to find, risky or dangerous to venture into or towards, no, I know this. And let me be the first hypocrite to stand on this very carpet and say that I have laughed along side you, and I so, maybe the loudest, at the very pedestrian nature of this particular eatery, That being placed firmly and permanently on this public record. What comes next is one of the strangest phenomenons that I, personally, encounter every three years or so. And that is that during this distant and yet extremely dependable time frame, I, me, will start to develop the most unique and unexpected (at the time) craving for Olive Garden, and almost exclusively, for their soup and salad. And it was on a most recent evening of a federal Monday holiday, that said craving took hold at the given end of a three year time table. And as the credits began to roll from a recent, most excellent viewing of the big screen re-make of 1987's Robocop, my body ravaged with the pangs of hunger, yes, for this was an unfamiliar feeling at this point, after having my body purged for most of the weekend from a most detestable and disgusting food poisoning incident from whereabouts unknown, but of whom suspects are few. Yes, as the credits rolled of this fine film of which you should and must see, the feelings of hunger and of craving met and intertwined. And as the Mazda, sped from the parking lot of the movie theater, the headlights beamed straight ahead looking for it's next target to illuminate in all of the night's darkness: that familiar faux setting of Tuscan Village in all of strip-mall-ia that is "The OG"! But as I arrived that's not what I saw. What I saw was the hard and dependable structure of a Red Cross triage, for I was coming back from the most severest form of the bubble guts I had had in seven years, and this restaurant, with its' soup and salad sustenance was going to bring me back to the land of the living! After flailing about in gastrointestinal misery over the long, hard, excruciating Valentine's/President's Day weekend, I was once again ready to re-attach, to tether alongside something, really anything of culinary significance. My car barely in park, the parking brake somewhat locked and secured, I rushed in and told the kind hostess I would sit anywhere where ever the service would be the quickest. She seated me at the bar. I half-glanced at the menu, knowing already exactly what I was going to order when prompted: Caesar salad and Toscana soup! The short wait began. A lonely and yet lovely maiden, much younger than I, also sat at the bar, gently sipping her chabli-cosmo-whatever-it-was and looking into the glowing abyss of her cell phone screen. I glanced her way much as I had at the menu, and looked onward as well at the two large television screens burrowed into the walls above the bar that were portraying various winter-time dramatics, and reindeer games. My salad arrived in a bowl much larger than I expected. I feared not, the young maiden seated near me at the bar, and paid her none of this mind for this mind had but one track at this moment, and I did not allow her to take my breath for I was conserving my breath for the mass consumption of food and gulping of air that was about to take place! Common courtesy, much less, common decency had been disposed of in but a mere moment, the moment that I took the very stool on which I was currently perched. Manners be darned. I went face down into that Caesar salad, never to look back up, a hog at his trough. The soup arrived and it was more of the same oafish behavior. Nary a spark of silverware was being utilized properly. I was a Viking at his table. Not caring of witness or witnesses to this barbaric display. As quickly as this much-awaited food had arrived, it was now gone. And so was I. And now I was on my way back to the land of the living!

    It was just last week that I tried Olive Garden for the first time. I kept hearing that it was awesome, yet expensive but the food was well worth the money. Gotta say: it isn't. The wait staff was friendly, our server named Tony was pretty cool and made sure we were taken care of. There were plenty of employees just lounging around in areas, but they didn't seem to get in the way of our server or our food. Speaking of food... I ordered the Chicken Parmigiana with a side of spaghetti (mostly so I can taste their sauce). My friend ordered the lasagna. When I got my entree, it didn't look spectacular. The sauce looked like under-seasoned tomato sauce and, for the most part, it was. Very bland and forgettable. As though they simply opened a jar of Prego or Ragu and warmed it up in a pot. Both of which I don't like. Why? Because I'm used to eating real spaghetti meat sauce with actual ingredients and ground beef. The spaghetti noodles had the taste and texture of being re-heated. So I guess they boil their noodles in bulk to keep ahead of the demand. The Chicken Parmigiana looked and tasted like they baked a Tyson's fried chicken patty and covered it in their bland sauce and topped with mozzarella. I also tried a bit of my friend's lasagna and was just as disappointed since the sauce was just so bland. The breadsticks and salad were nice and tasted good. It's pretty sad how the side dishes taste better than the entree. My verdict: I love the atmosphere and the staff were nice, but I was also there when it wasn't busy so I have no idea how the staff hold together under pressure. It's Shreveport, so the average quality of service is typically low The food was forgettable and under-par. $30 for two meals wasn't as bad as I imagined, but still too expensive for the bland food they served. I could go to walmart with $30 and make the same entree and feed 5 people with it and make it taste better with my mom's spaghetti recipe.

    Really good food at a fairly average price. However, 3/4 times it has taken longer than 30 minutes for breadsticks to be brought out (the pre-appetizer). Attractive atmosphere compared to most mid-tier restaurants. However, there tends to very loud children in the evenings. Good service, and good food at the cost of long waiting times.

    We had the very best time. We walked in and were immediately sat by the sweet host. We were promptly greeted by the kindest server(Jacob was his name I think) and he took very good care throughout the entire meal. I highly recommend him to anyone that goes to eat there. I had the chicken and shrimp carbonata and my friend had the stuffed chicken marsalla. Both were awesome. When Jacob wasn't at the table we had several people come by and check on us and make sure we were doing ok. One of the other servers tho was such a small skinny girl. She probably had not eaten in who knows how long. We offered her some of our food but she said no, and that where she comes from there isn't much food so she is used to going without. As sad as that was to hear it shouldn't cast a bad light on our wonderful evening. We will definitely be going back. 5 stars!!!!

    Uh, it's Olive Garden. What more do I have to say? If you haven't been, go some place else. Unless you really want to... I only went in because my mom was craving their stuffed mushroom and fried calamari appetizers, which were alright. I chose the lasagna fritte, which is basically fried mozzerrella wrapped in lasagna noodles. Service was kind of on the slow side, though we were in the quiet side of a busy lunch day. We didn't get our glasses of water until after our orders were placed on the table. Hello? It's humid Louisiana weather here! I'm thirsty...work with me. Oh yeah, water refills = non-exisistent. Olive Garden has never been my cup of tea, and I'll be back if the parental units decide on it. Ps: $6.95 unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks? When did they start charging for breadsticks??

    Terrible! This was the first and last time I'll go here. First, we walked in and there were 2 couples waiting for tables, which baffled me because I noticed 4 empty, dirty booths and no one at the bar. But we took our buzzer from the "oh so enthusiastic" hostess who had her phone on her hostess stand. We sat and waited for about 15 still staring at the dirty tables and the hostess stand surrounded by wait staff chit chatting. We counted 5 groups of people leaving, and the # of groups waiting to be seated grew to 7. After 20 minutes our buzzer went off and we walked to the hostess and she simply pointed us around the corner. We were seated at a booth that had 3 dirty tables surrounding it. (which weren't cleaned until after we got our entrees) Our waitress was Casey, she was very nice but obviously didn't know the menu. We watched one guy giving another girl a massage in front of the server computers, and probably spent 90% of his time hugging the other wait staff and talking. The food was "OK" but nothing to be excited about. Their draft beer was broken, and we were informed by our waitress it had been for weeks. The tomato bruschetta was horrible.Their one saving grace was the Strawberry-Mango Limonata that was very good! But not good enough to make me go back. To top it all off, we walk to our vehicle to see 6 employees sitting outside smoking! I just don't recommend here at all.

    I would give this place no stars if it was an option. I got there are 5:30pm to order something to go and it took them about 15-20 mins to take my order. I waited for about 30-45 mins for my order and i was not the only one. What made matters worse was the manager was there doing nothing to help me! This place lacks the customer service attitude that i am use to from other Olive Gardens i have been to. This place needs a huge overall mangement on down Do not go here!!

Italian Cuisine

The immense popularity of Italian cuisine globally isn't unknown. You can find an Italian Pizzeria around every corner of almost every city in the United States. Not to forget that in every house, people enjoy mac and cheese as comfort food. But it would be wrong to believe that Italian food starts with pizza and ends with good pasta as this Mediterranean country has much more to offer other than these two dishes. In Italian Cuisine, there is a high use of fresh tomatoes, all kinds of herbs, great quality of cheese, all types of meat, seafood and fresh handmade pasta. Many find it hard to believe that Italians have been making noodles long back.

Italian and Greek cuisines are always mistaken to be same, but they are poles apart. The primary difference between the two cuisines is the use of cheese in most of the Italian dishes. Italians love to cultivate their own cheese and process them as per their food requirement. It is believed that some cheese is so expensive that cheese producers secure them in lockers.

If you are bored eating the same old pasta or pizza, you can try some of the authentic Italian dishes like Risotto, Polenta, Ribollita, Lasagna, Fiorentina Steak, Bottarga, Ossobuco, Carbonara, Focaccia, Arancini and Supplì. Another item which Italians love to relish every morning is a good cup of Italian Coffee. Once you taste a freshly brewed cup of Italian Coffee, you might not visit Starbucks ever again. Authentic Italian food is made with heart and soul, so go find a restaurant where you can relish Italian cuisine in your city.
