What is your favorite dish at olive garden?

Question

I love their wedding soup. Campbell's just came out with a wedding soup but it is not as good as the olive garden!

Answer 1

seafood portofino--someone made a comment about OG not being particularly healthy (what major chain restaurants are?  lol) and I agree.  I would rather cook at home but OG is yummy and seafood portofino is my absolute fave!!  :)  yum!

Answer 2

chicken parmesan with tons of mozzarella and fresh parmesan with my spaghetti

Answer 3

Portabella mushroom ravioli.

Answer 4

endless soup salad and breadsticks. with the minestrone soup <3

Answer 5

I always say homemade is best, The "OG" does have a loyal following, but it is prepackaged, sodium laden food (which most americans love)....But since this is not a question about how healthy Olive Garden is I will answer this,  try the all you can eat salad, its pretty good but you'll still be thirsty all night long from the INCREDIBLE amount of salt OG adds to the dressing.

Chicken parmesan with the zuppa toscana

Answer 13

Answer 14

As an Italian (who knows how to cook) I'm forced to say that NOTHING is good at the Olive Garden.

Well, some of their soups/salads/bread are passable, but those arent exactly hard things to make.

Their pasta? Horribly mushy (havent they ever heard that al dente is the proper way to make pasta???)

Their sauce? Blech... pizza sauce at best. Their cream sauces arent any better either.

Their meat? Over done and dry...

Spicing? Amatuerish, abusive of oregano too.

Seriously people, support your local Italian restaraunts. It's usually cheaper and almost always better quality.

Better yet... look online and get recipes. Experiment with your own sauces and meats. Italian food can be easy and/or simple to do with some practice.

Answer 15

honestly there are alot of good things there but i will have to say that the endless soup, salad, and breadsticks,, and then  the porttabella mushroom & shrimp... or with shrimp... but it depends because each oliive garden has a different menu. : )
