Our server Zane was the absolute goat and checked on us the perfect amount and he blessed us up with some Andes mints. He was awesome and very understanding of our indecision and even helped us to make choices that came out absolutely amazing. S/O to Zane. Food was solid too.

What can I say? It is olive garden. It is quite acceptable for industrial scale food and beverage. The soup and salad are great. You can't go wrong with a marinara something or other, or perhaps a masala or picatta depending on your tastes. The wines are ho hum, but industrial scale efficiency limits that too. They have to find industrial scale producers at certain price points. They simply cannot offer similar priced but higher quality smaller producers, because then a menu on the west coast wouldnt match the east coast, and what if some dumazz regional manager has no taste for quality wine? So it is what it is, but megacorp food and beverage, Inc. is not bad if you don't have a better option at a similar price range available

Lisa was AMAZING! She was the server that come to us once we were seated. However, the hostess was NOT. She was rude and unprofessional. She was a young lady who was rude from the get go.What had happened is that we decided as a party of 6 go online and sign up online to check in. Once we arrived we checked in on the app at the parking lot it said "thank you for checking in, we will send you a text message once your table is ready." Assuming the message we received we went inside and sat down. NO ONE GREETED US WHEN WE ARRIVED!!! We just simply sat down and noticed we were the 6th party online in order to be seated. After waiting for almost 20 minutes and the rest of our party arrived we had not been seated and noticed the hostess talking smack about us when another lady went up to her and was starring at us. With the hostess there was another host with her a young man who were just starring at us and did not assume to notice we were waiting on a table. As a hostess YOUR JOB DESCRIPTION is to make sure the GUEST feel WELCOMED, CARED for and VALUED!!! (you can even google search this, its basic information that you should know as a host).The hostess lady was so rude as soon as someone from our party decided to go up to her and ask how much longer it would take she said she does not even have us signed in. We then proceeded to say we have been signed in through online. The host then said "if you read the instructions online you would have seen it said come to the host to check in." We let her know it did not and just said that it will send us a text once the table is ready. She then in a VERY snarly way she said "if you would have read the instructions it would've said to check in with the host." She then checked us in and started talking about us to the other young man hostess. Minutes after that we received a text message saying our table was ready. We got up and the lady hostess COMPLETELY ignored us and took around 5 minutes to even sit us down. She then told the young man hostess to sit us down instead. When he took us to our table he just stand there and did not greet us or say ANYTHING to us about how our server would come and attend us. Lisa then came and she was AMAZING by doing her job and trying to be as fast as she could with us and was such a nice lady.

Took awhile to seat a slightly larger group( no reservations allowed) after seating everything went great. The food was as expected, good chain food. The service was admirable, checking on the group for refills , bringing to go containers, etc but without being overbearing and intrusive. The atmosphere was as expected

I typically am a fan of Olive Garden. This was my first visit to Fayetteville. Portions were small, salad portion contained hardly any lettuce and was not enough for two people. I ordered the Tour of Italy. Very little sauce on the fettuccine alfredo and the chicken parm was over cooked. I actually took a tiny bit as I was concerned the person I was with would not have any. They refilled one of our drinks with a different drink. So disappointing. Would not return to this location. I dined there often when I resided on the East Coast.

Just wanting to send a shout out to the server that waited on my younger teen daughter and her friends tonight. They were there for a Galentines date night, and Kim T. was spoken of very highly by them. As a server myself, and as a Mom, I just want to say how much I appreciate the care she put in to make them comfortable in a more grown up setting. Thanks Kim T, and keep up the good work! You’re awesome.
