In Short
Established in 1982, this chain gained a following for its laid-back atmosphere and generous portions. Patrons settle into comfortable booths and tables in dining rooms with plants, artwork and décor reminiscient of the villas in the Tuscan countryside. Starters include scampi, sausage or pepperoni pizza, and several soup choices, as well as a signature seafood dip (crab, shrimp, cheese and marinara). Entrees include classics like lasagna, fettuccine Alfredo and chicken parmigiana. There are also "Garden Fare" options, which promise 30 percent fewer calories.

Olive Garden's "cuisine" has about as much to do with Italy as fortune cookies do with China. At best, the menu consists of highly Americanized Italian dishes and an assortment of wholly American Dishes. What they do to pasta here would make a vistor from "the mother country" laugh, then cry.

This is not an Italian restaurant people, get real. Most of their food comes in pre-packed frozen doggie bags. This place is a lesson is pre-packaged grub for cattle.
