Wonderful dining experience this evening ..
Food superb ... perfectly prepared ..... could not have been better ..... we all three had the same thoughts about our food we ordered ! Was also nice that several people stopped by to ask us about our food and to see if we needed anything.

good food for the price

Never understood why in the world people suffer through a long wait for defrosted pasta...oh, yeah, it's cheap...it's sad to see places like this prosper, while Carrabba's, where everything is made fresh in the restaurant and hundreds of times better, languishes on route 40...a location switch would be interesting...

Good food and service!

Some really good food!
we all liked it very very much thank you!
Date: October 12, 2007
it amazes me how different the opinions are. I used to LOVE olive garden, but then I actually went to italy... and, well, I came back and it's not quite the same. everything is good, you just can't expect authentic italian cuisine.

Excellent salad, but be careful if you order a martini. In fact, if you want a "dry" martini, why bother with any vermouth?? They don't understand the concept of a single drop. So spare yourself and the poor waitress the hassle and just ask for a martini with NO VERMOUTH.
My meal was very tasty. I felt like I was in a time machine too, but that's for another day :)
Buon Apetito.

Love it...food is fresh and consistent. Prices are great. Im a VP of a co. here and used to work at it back in college. I know the food is fresh, I know how it's all prepared. It's a good deal for a quick bite. If you want REAL Italian food, go to Italy or at least Baltimore. Frederick is so-so in the restaurant biz period.

Pizza was not very good. I do think they have good breadsticks
Date: December 21, 2006
I absolutely LOVE olive garden. The breadsticks & salad are delicious alone. MY favorite meal is Eggplant Parmigiana. It is by far the best I've ever had.
The downside is there is ALWAYS a wait. Not even a 15 min wait either. At least 45 minutes usually. But it is worth the wait.

The McDonalds of the italian food world.

I love O.G.!!!!!! Never fails...:) honestly some things are expensive, moderate and reasonable. But its delicious food!
Date: August 11, 2006
Haven't been there in a while but service is always excellent and food is even better. So, there is a wait. There is a wait at a lot of places but everytime I've ever had a wait at the Olive Garden, it's been worth the visit.
Date: June 13, 2006
We found the food pleasing and plentiful. Menu contains quite a variety. The prices are not bad. Staff/service was above normal. Our only complaint is that they are always so busy, and sometimes the wait is way beyond control - 2 hours was quoted to us as the wait time on one recent visit - unfortunately just a bit too long for us, but otherwise we have always been very satisfied.

OK for a corperate restaurant. Food is fair, not authenic Italian, service was poor, atmosphere is LOUD, could not relax and enjoy my night out. Long lines - over a 1 hour wait - definately not worth it knowing that I could have gone to Venuti's and avoided all of the above.

With all the Italian food options in Frederick, why go here? It's not that good. Their idea of authenticity is just adding too much garlic to everything. Not working. If I wanted that, I'd eat a clove of garlic. But I don't. So I don't go to Olive Garden and that is why. It's not that tasty. At least the service is usually good.

This restaurant is consistently busy anytime after 4 PM any day of the week, be prepared for a wait. Food is perfectly acceptable and well priced, but the crowds are baffling to me. I would recommend this place more as a good choice when travelling and you want a reliable chain to eat at, more than a destination if you live in Frederick where there are dozens of better, less crowded restaurants.

3 words for dessert: Black Tie MousseCake. Try it!
Date: March 10, 2006
Yes, the Olive Garden is consistent. They do offer large portions of food, but it is not anything that I would call real Italian. Why there is always a wait for this place I will never understand.
Date: September 29, 2005
The salad and breadstick alone are a reason to come here. Love it! Service is always good!
Date: May 8, 2005
Olive Garden is one of the chains that varies a lot from one location to another. This is one of the nicer ones, in that it is very clean, the service is reliable and the food is consistently good.
Date: March 5, 2005
I love there food! I eat there almost 4 times a week! The severs are all well trained, and the hostess are outstanding and get us seated quickly!
Date: February 2, 2004
Not by any means exceptionally authentic 'mediterreanian'. Pasta is so-so. Authentic wise I'd say Taurauso's does a better job there. Didnt notice anything else ostensibly med. on there, nothing greek, israeli, etc. come on guys jazz it up. Won't be going back anytime soon, food isnt bad, just why bother if its not accurate?

Comments on this restaurant?
I appreciate the consistency of the Olive Garden's menu, flavor, service, price and friendliness. Each time I enter an Olive Garden I can depend on selecting a quality meal from the menu.I look forward to patronized the Olive Garden when we visit Frederick,MD or any of the other Olive Gardens.

A food factory, incredibly mediocre. I can't imagine why people line up for this place, especially with much better independently owned restaurants in Frederick.
Date: July 8, 2003
top notch food. a smidge expensive, but it's worth it every once and a while.
Date: March 8, 2003
Good food and service. Get there early though or you may be in for a bit of a wait during the prime dinner hours.
Date: March 4, 2003
Excellent cuisine, and large portions are some of the good things about the restaurant. Price is medium, but salad and breadsticks are free with every meal. The service is excellent and everyone is very friendly. The only problem is that there are no reservations and no call ahead seating, so sometimes it can be a long wait.
