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

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.

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.

From: T & L Willard

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!

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.

From: Darrell

The salad and breadstick alone are a reason to come here. Love it! Service is always good!

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.

From: Casey Keyser

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!

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.

From: william

top notch food. a smidge expensive, but it's worth it every once and a while.

From: matt

Good food and service. Get there early though or you may be in for a bit of a wait during the prime dinner hours.

From: Jimmy Peyton

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.
