Bewertungen von Olive Garden Santa Ana
I eat at the bar with someone that has never been there and they just loved it, I thought it was great, the food was hot the breadsticks were on point and everything was perfect
Whenever I'm close to an OG for lunch I don't hesitate to eat here. The food is always excellent. The cost of fast food these days is just ridiculous, where as you can enjoy all you can eat soup, salad and bread sticks for $10 or my favorite all you can eat soup with lasagna for $13. Walk in and sit at the bar, never anyone there, and enjoy the best deal in town. The bartender isn't very busy so you'll get great service and friendly conversation if you want it.
Our server was the best! Karen made sure we had a great time.
This is the best Olive Garden to go to! I had this server, Malki, and he was the absolute best! He introduced himself, was really funny, polite, and super attentive. He brought the food quickly and it was extremely delicious! I strongly recommend the never ending pasta bowl! I got the fried zitti with alfredo and shrimp fritta. Easily the best pasta I've had in my life. I will probably come back very soon and, of course, I'll ask for Malki. (You shouldn't though because he already belongs to me and I claimed no takie backsies. Mine. )
The waiter and service was out of this world. The perfect place to take a date or get back together with your ex. I mean it wasn’t a serious fight just a misunderstanding. The endless breadsticks just kept coming and my Diet Coke was never empty.
Norma is AWESOME! She's sooooo super bubbly, attentive, polite, and knows her stuff. Her giggles are happily received & contagious. She made our meal time a great experience. We had the Neverending Pasta. I had the Crispy Chicken Fritta over Angel Hair with Creamy Mushroom sauce. The sauce was creamy & had a pleasing taste. Hubby had the Italian Sausage over Rigatoni with Meat Sauce. I tried the sausage. It was one of the better ones I've had. Overall, a great value combination of entree choices & pricing. We'll be back. Oh! Give Norma a raise!
Just left a few minutes with the best customer service! Nate was extremely patient and always finding ways to help us out even though our food was taking a little longer than expected, he made sure that he felt very sorry and made us laugh throughout that wait time. He has a very kind heart and a good sense of humor! Definitely would enjoy having him as my server again! He made sure my mom had a good birthday !
This is one of the better locations out there. The service is honestly really good. Our server was Bailey, and she was the best server we’ve had than any other locations. She was very attentive and very welcoming. I would recommend this Olive Garden on service alone. Food was good as always.
It was my first time visiting this location. Came out for lunch with my parents. We were seated right away. Our server was on point. The food was served fairly quick and was good. We had no complaints. Multiple servers came by to check up on our table to make sure everything was going well.
My favorite place! The minestrone soup is a great vegan option
I was a party of 3. Food was served in a timely manner. Jerick was a great waiter, and showed great customer service by checking in on us multiple times asking if we would like refills of drinks, breadsticks etc. He was charismatic, kind, and professional. Thank you Jerick. We appreciated your service.
The wait was long but once we got sat, it was quick. Service was good. Only thing was they never refilled our water. Everything else was good. Food was awesome, came out quick and they gave a good amount. They also comped my wife’s cake for her birthday.
Dined in with a friend Wednesday around 4pm and we had the best service by a great gentleman. I think his name was Josue, or Jose, but young man was very attentive! It was his 2nd day as a waiter and he is going far! We spoke to the manager about the great service but wanted to post it on here! Great job young man!
Amazing service from Joesph G our server! Definitely would recommend him, super helpful and so nice! Thank you!
The food was amazing but we did feel a little rushed still no issue everything was brought out quickly and the quality was very good
Evan was our server the night we came in for my son’s birthday. He took very good care of us and even got my son free cake for his birthday.
Absolutely loved the garlic bread sticks. And the chicken and gnocchi soup is delicious.
Huge shout out to Kat C. She was amazing. Amazing service and very friendly and on top of things. Would definitely come sit in her section again!
We sat with Angel and he was an amazing server! He was very attentive and kind. He made the over all experience great. We will be coming back and asking for him!
My family and I came to this Olive Garden in Santa Ana and the food was great. It was my first time here at this location and it was my family’s second time. But what was even better was the service by Gage. He really went above and beyond. They say first impressions is something you’ll never forget, and we will surely not forget Gage’s. His initial approach to our table was awesome. He came with a smile, so energetic, great charisma and amazing work ethic. He always made sure if we needed anything else or any refills and didn’t make us feel forgotten like we usually do when we go to other locations. Our food came out in a timely manner and super hot. Just how we like it. Gage Is definitely the definition of great customer service. His managers and Olive Garden are truly blessed to have him. I hope that the management team and Olive Garden really consider Gage in some sort of promotion after reading this and especially after hearing he has been at this location for quite some time. Thank you Gage for your great service and your humble hospitality!😊We will definitely be back at this location. I definitely recommend anyone to ask for Gage when they visit this location.
We always have the best experience with Mr, Miguel. Great service, everything was amazing! Thank you Miguel and Olive garden for your service. Sincerely, JAVIER
Great value for money and beautiful food. The endless pasta option was beautiful and the salad and breadsticks were a great compliment.
Best customer service. I never had to waive down my waiter, he was marvelous with attention. Made sure my whole family was take care off. Who ever is hiring your employees needs a raise, all of them carried such a lovely vibe to themselves. Our waiter was also bilingual which was awesome for my parents.
I recently visited the Olive Garden on Main Street in Santa Ana, and I must say, the experience was exceptional from start to finish. From the moment I walked in, I was warmly greeted by a very nice hostess who immediately made me feel welcome. Her friendly demeanor set the tone for the rest of the meal, which only got better as the night progressed. Once seated, I was fortunate enough to have Joe as my waiter for the evening. And let me tell you, Joe was an absolute standout! His level of attentiveness and professionalism truly elevated the dining experience. Right from the beginning, Joe made sure I was comfortable, checked in on me frequently without being intrusive, and always anticipated my needs before I even had to ask. It’s rare to find such a dedicated server who genuinely cares about your experience, but Joe went above and beyond. Throughout the meal, Joe made sure my drink was never empty and checked in regularly to ensure everything was to my liking. He was incredibly knowledgeable about the menu and made great recommendations. I especially appreciated how he took the time to ensure that any requests I had were met with a smile and prompt service. His positive attitude and attention to detail made me feel like I was more than just a customer — I felt like a valued guest. The food, of course, lived up to Olive Garden’s well-known standards. The breadsticks were warm and perfectly seasoned, and the salad was crisp and fresh, as always. My entrée arrived hot and delicious, with generous portions that made for a fulfilling meal. But it was truly the service, particularly from Joe, that made this visit special. It’s clear that the staff at this Olive Garden take pride in what they do, and that’s something that can make all the difference. I highly recommend this location for anyone looking to enjoy a relaxing meal with great food and even better service. Make sure to ask for Joe — you won’t be disappointed! And a big shoutout to the kind hostess who started my visit on such a positive note. I’ll definitely be back, and I hope to experience the same level of care and attention from the staff, especially from Joe, who truly made my visit memorable.
If you're looking for a restaurant that serves large portions of delicious food, this is a great spot to try. The servings are generous—definitely enough for more than one person. The restaurant is clean, well-maintained, and has a warm, welcoming atmosphere. Our server was friendly and attentive, and although the food took a little longer to come out, it was worth the wait. This place is located in a small shopping plaza that's conveniently near other restaurants and shops, and it's also close to major freeways, making it easy to find. It can get very busy on weekends, and it's not uncommon to see crowds waiting outside, especially when parking is tight. Luckily, when we visited, there wasn’t a long wait. Overall, a solid choice for anyone who wants hearty meals, great service, and a convenient location
I had a very nice experience today at the Olive Garden in Santa Ana. I arrived around 12 noon on Saturday and this was a good time to eat there. We were seated right away and I noticed the 1950's Italian crooner's music being piped through the restaurant which brought me right back to when I was a small lad at home with my family for Sunday diner. For lunch I picked The "Tour of Italy" plate with the house Salad and Bread Sticks. The salad was served with Tomatoes Red Cabbage and Croutons. I loved the tangy Italian dressing and the bread sticks were soft inside with a slightly crisp buttery crust. The "Tour of Italy" plate was marvelous, the Chicken Parmigiana had a crispy outer shell that did not get soggy with the sauce and cheese that was draped over the chicken. The Lasagna Classico was just how I like it, firm but not too wet. The Fettuccine Alfredo had the best sauce. it hit all the buttons. The server was attentive and it was an overall wonderful experience.
This was our first indoor dining experience in almost 10 months! Olive Garden did an excellent job spacing out patrons. There were at least 2-3 tables between each group dining. Every host, server, and staff member wore a mask. The food was delicious! We ordered the Chicken Parmigiana, Lunch Fettuccine Alfredo, Kids Cheese Pizza with fries, Asiago Tortellini with Grilled Chicken, and the Giant Stuffed shells with grilled chicken. Salads and breadsticks were brought on regularly! We were all so very satisfied!
First time at this location. Great dinner experience! We had spiked strawberry lemonade, Pink Moscato , Herb salmon, Tour of Italy, and Chicken Alfredo. And of course we had to have salad and breadsitcks. Everything was delicious. Best customer service by Mili . R she was very attentive to our needs. . Definitely be changing it to my go to location.
First time coming here and will definitely come back all because of Jewels! She went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and was very attentive to all of our requests.
When we went to eat on Friday night there was an amazing server named skyler(Skylar) and she was the best server we have ever received. My fiance was eating soup and when he was finished she noticed that he didn't eat part of the soup and specifically asked if he would like it without. The attention to detail and customer service was above and beyond to where we will be going back just for the customer service that was provided. I hope she sees this review because she was amazing. :) Thank you.
Came here to celebrate my CIL's belated birthday. We chose this location specifically because they have outdoor seating and allowed us to bring our dog. Parking: We visited on a Saturday evening for dinner. There's a large parking lot, but it was very busy. Finding a spot can be difficult. Ambiance/Environment: Just like any other Olive Garden, there's a wait outside and packed indoor and outdoor. Since we opted to dine outside, we waited less than 15 minutes to be seated. There's a cover and heaters around the outdoor seating. Service: Thank you Miranda for the exceptional service! She offered our dog some water, and I appreciated her for also being discrete about surprising my CIL with a cake for his birthday. She checked on us multiple times to ensure we were satisfied, waters full, and cocktails refilled. Throughput was surprisingly quick after ordering considering how busy it was. Food & drinks: I ordered the Shrimp and Chicken Carbonara, and my other cousin ordered a Shrimp Scampi. I also ordered the Spiked Strawberry Lemonade. We chose salad and soups for our appetizers. The bread is toasted to perfection as usual. The shrimp and chicken were cooked and seasoned well. The sauce was creamy, and it coated the pasta evenly. The spiked lemonade was fruity and strong. Pricing: Prices are what you'd expect from a supply chain restaurant. I honestly dislike supply chain restaurant prices, but we enjoyed everything.
We had an amazing experience at Olive Garden, and our waiter Jorge truly made the difference. He was kind, attentive, and genuinely caring the entire time. His warm and friendly energy made us feel welcomed and taken care of. It’s rare to receive such heartfelt service. Thank you, Jorge, for making our visit so enjoyable!
Came for lunch, it was so delicious. We got salad, soup, and chicken tortellini Alfredo, chicken was so so good! A nice crunch on the outside but sooo juicy and delicious on the inside , the kitchen knows what they are doing back there! Our server Yudi was so sweet, attentive, and on point, she offered us refills at the perfect time. Her great energy and attitude was contagious, she’s the best NEVER LET HER GO🫶🏼🫶🏼
Top notch Italian food ... Especially for a chain restaurant. Out server was fast, friendly, and efficient. Her right biceps was strong from hearing all that cheese onto salads... And anything else we wanted it on. We all had different dishes from lasagna to shrimp to fettuccini. We kept sharing and couldn't decide which was best .. All of them!
Hello Would like to tell you about the great service and person, that served us. Yareli WOW..... May have been the best service every. She is very kind and was very attentive to our table.

Olive Garden You have a great person working for you. Please take care of her. Yareli Hope this message finds you. Thank you for making our visit nice and easy. Like I said. Your my favorite!!! Your service was 20 stars People,ask for her Olive garden Santa Ana Thank you Mario Moreno Sanchez
The food was incredibly delicious, and the staff were all so lovely, especially the South American lady ( Brenda) who served us. She was genuinely warm and made us feel very welcome. They even surprised us with a yummy cake that said “Welcome to the US” on it. Such a sweet gesture! Highly recommend this place
I just bought to go and all I have to say is that the whole atmosphere felt cozy the staff of Olive Garden very attentive ,and the Manager Andrew very sweet guy . Was concerned about my waiting and even offered me a free drink raspberry lemonade this was my choice to go . Thank you I will certainly come more often
We had an outstanding experience at Olive Garden thanks to Mr. Arturo! He gave us top-notch attention from start to finish — professional, kind, and genuinely attentive to every detail. It’s rare to receive this level of service, and Arturo went above and beyond to make us feel welcomed and taken care of. Olive Garden is lucky to have someone like him. Highly recommend asking for Arturo if you want the best dining experience!
Our server was Grace and she did above and beyond! She was quick, kind and helpful! She walked us through everything when we had questions about the menu and made sure we had our refills with all our sides and drinks! She always had a smile and I saw she still had time to help fellow coworkers, would definitely would ask for her next time!
Attended dinner with a group. We were seated on the patio. I enjoyed it, because the weather was perfect for it. The drinks and food was served quickly. It was delicious. My food was filling and yummy. Our waiter Gage, along with the other waiter/bus boy were very helpful and made the experience so much more. Parking was great, I had very little trouble finding a parking spot. Overall, the experience was amazing. Also, we got to sing along to Happy birthday, which is always fun.
If you’re looking for The Authentic Taste of Oliver Garden and a very great and wonderful restaurant than this Olive Garden is the perfect place for you and the family. Not only is their customer service one of the best I have seen at an Olive Garden in years, but one of the freshest made food. Our food was right out of the oven with fresh bread and soup. The manager was very kind and noticeable at all times, asking if we needed any at all and this was at a busy time it was busy but everyone (staff was in great manners and very respectful as well as courteous. Thank you again we will be visiting again. 😇🙏🍝 PS the Tour of Italy with Mushrooms is amazing 🤤
I recently visited Olive Garden in Santa Ana and had a wonderful experience. The restaurant was clean and well-maintained, and the staff was friendly and attentive. The menu had a great variety of Italian dishes, and everything we ordered tasted fresh and delicious. I especially loved the unlimited breadsticks, soup, and salad that came with our meal - they were both so tasty and satisfying. The prices were also reasonable for the quality of the food and service. Overall, I highly recommend Olive Garden in Santa Ana for anyone looking for a tasty Italian meal and a pleasant dining experience.

Years, coming to this place, food is ready well, but the place stands for the way their waitresses handle service. People responsible for handling the hosting sometimes are a little distracted but not to get mad. Waiting on weekends, maybe I a little bit too long.
Food was great! My only issue was our waiter Miguel M. It was our first time visiting this location and we had certain questions and he was absolutely very dismissive. He kept cutting his off whenever we'd ask. He was very attentive but we truly just didn't like how dismissive he was. I feel like he was rushed and was just taking care of us very fast and he had other tables to attend too which is understand being busy but being dismissive is not understood.Food was absolutely great!!! Definitely will visit again!
It was a regular old Olive Garden but with a twist, like they tried to incorporate a bar/club inside and the waiter had a sad look in his face as he attended us, probably just a long day. Outside there was a nasty smell and when you enter it turns into a less pungent smell of toasted bread and garlic. They atended quickly but still feel like they didn’t find us “family” as the slogan says. Kind of depressing. But either way the food was abundant, the taste was typical, and the waiter kept a good tab on us knowing a lot about the plates and the wines.
It might be that I am hungry when I go, but the food is delicious each time. The service is pretty good but there were times where the waiters have completely forgotten about us. The food made up for it though! I love the staff, I know they have a lot on their plate, quite literally since they are coming in and out of the kitchen to deliver food.
Yummylicious chicken & gnocchi. Very flavorful i recommend. But getting inside was a bootyache, takes a while. Im very happy i came to eat here. 👍 Edit because my lasagna arrived Also delectable. Couldn't finish it because I was full sadly but my 7 bites or so were pure heaven. Love this place I hope to return soon
I use to attend the Olive garden across this place (main place) but I really enjoy the interior and faster service here. Even my family was surprised on the timing to get our plates. Although I do it sucks you can't split the salad and soup ... So just a heads up. Other then that . Prices have gone up by a dollar per plate from a year ago. Wait time for a table during dinner is roughly 20-30 minutes. (A little recommendation for food.. try the chicken and shrimp cabenera and ask the server to split it for two. Trust me.... You'll get full haha, also keep in mind a lot of Disney tourist come to this place. So just heads up )
Hold off on the whole negative comments and reviews about "Olive Garden not being a real Italian restaurant". Regardless they started from somewhere and worked to be a Nationwide family food franchise. They did well somewhere. For the VAST majority of my visits, service is great and the food is delicious. Even if it's not "Italian food". I love their Zuppa Toscana. Change my mind. Table service and random wine tastings make this place even more enjoyable. Great deals and Veteran Friendly!
This place is good. Usually I come over with my friends. Customer service is good. Waitress are really polite My usual favorite is egg parmigiana and gnocchi soup. Always the best. While checking out they provide some complimentary mint chocolate treat if you don’t get, do ask them. It is one of the good chocolates since it’s their signature chocolate- quality is good too. Ordered wine- price was not bad.
We celebrated my friends 19 aniversary, one of my friends had the chicken and shrimp carbonara and one of the shimp was undercooked, he felt a little sick later, the Alfredo sauce and chicken was delicious and juice, the chicken and gnocchi was delicious too, the service was good, every one from the staff was nice too, I liked the music,
I have to say. I was pleasantly surprised with our dinner tonight from Olive Garden. I have been to many locations over the years, and I am generally disappointed. We ordered our food to go over the phone and I picked it up a few miles away from where we were staying. It was pretty good, but the Togo staff was extremely nice and professional. Thanks to everyone at thos bbn location. I'm sure we will come here again another stay.
For many years, Olive Garden has been one of my favorite restaurants. I can say that all was good, I liked the environment even though in this new location they don't have the grades decorations they had at the Main Place Mall. AndbMy Mother and I were in the restroom, just about finishing eating, and I had given my card to the waitress to pay... when we came back, our table wasn't available and my food to go was placed on one of the head rest from a waiting area sofa...this I didn't like, it was not correct..not to me... anyways... the shrimp scampi was not my favorite there... I still love Maggiano's and The Cheese Cake Factory Shrimp Scampi...No other restaurant makes it Delicious like them😊
I highly recommend their “Super Salad” before ordering your main dish. It’s so peak fr fr.
Went on Valentine’s Day with a family and wait time wasn’t too long and service was great. I ordered the Calabrian Steak & Shrimp Bucatini it was very bland lacked flavor sauce and flavor but the Steak was tender.
No complaints from us. We showed up on a Thursday around 6:30 pm. The wait was between 10 - 15 minutes for a party of four. Parking can get hectic, especially on the weekends and evenings. When we parked there was still visible empty parking spots, and we left around 7:45 ish, cars were waiting for empty spots. Front host was not too welcoming, not very approachable, a “Good evening” or a “Welcome would be nice.” But she did acknowledge us as soon as we came in! But our waitress, Shyne, was awesome, attentive, excellent recommendations, very kind and professional. Our food came out fairly quick, they were busy. Everything was as ordered, food was good and tasty. Good restaurant! Recommended!
They try their best to give you good service. I appreciate that a lot. The evening I went, we had a server in training so there were other servers helping him out. When he told us the dofferent soups, I wish the trainers would have corrected him (at least in private) about how to pronounce some of the names of the dishes that were typical Italian restaurant staples like minestrone soup. The server pronounced it as "mine strone" instead of MIN-uh STRO-nee. Servers were very friendly as were the hosts at the front.

Olive Garden is what you expect overpriced food with mediocre service. The servers didn't wear gloves before putting their dirty hands on our plates. Also we walked out paying well over 100+$ for a family of 4 so yeah sucks for us but that's the reality these days.
Mobile order needs serious work. Never got text confirming pick up is ready. Arrived and called to say stall number, said it would be out shortly, waited 15mins. Still nothing. Had to go in to find food sitting there, no attempt to bring it out or communicate anything. Do better.
Food was good, but the server did not tell us that a little plate of marinara would be an extra $5.99 and the bread sticks tasted like they forgot salted butter so just sprinkled salt on there directly: very salty. Our meal cost a total of $53 including taxes, because we got a calamari appetizer and the Italian fried doughnut dessert
Great restaurant with super servers, with exception of it taking 25 freaking minutes to get a damn beer!!!!! Everything else was exceptional but I do think their prices are a bit high for what you …

The seating procedure was a joke, assigning 7 people in a 6 people booth, and refused to re assigned us to a bigger table. The food order got all messed up, appetizers never came out, no refills, nobody removing dirty plates. Really bad and uncomfortable experience at this location.

The table are unclean and forks are not wash well no one want eat things using that. water stain all over iron tools, the way manager solve the problems are useless.
The more you order, the more you are appreciated. It means more money, more tips. I don't like this feeling. I mean the service was fine but I felt the waitress frustration at the same time. They rushed you, ''eat and go ". The food is good but not the real Italian flavors. The manager was on the phone the entire evening!!!! Anyway, I was disappointed. I wouldn't go there again for sure.
After a busy day, we decided to have lunch at Olive Garden in the City of Santa Ana - Main St., CA. My wife’s soup (Toscana) had a dark broth and a strange favor. It was immediately sent back. The Waitress brought a new bowl and the color of the broth was completely different. Even the waitress commented see noticed the difference. My wife asked for the Manager, who never came. My wife’s Ravioli arrived Hard and Crispy as though it had been kept under a hot plate for a long period of time. Again, my wife asked for the manager. I asked for a second helping of Bread Sticks, and the waitress brought me two. The waitress never offered or brought additional salad. The Manager, who had the appearance of a teenager came to our table. My wife explained our disappointment in the food quality. All she said was, “I can have it remade, or you can order something different”. No apology or offer of a free dessert or a discount. The manager did bring me additional salad and extra sauce for my wife’s ravioli. By this time, I had already finished my meal and we didn’t want to waste anymore time. My wife and I boxed up our meals and left. In our opinion, Olive Garden has gone down in the quality of their food, but continue to keep their high prices. We were not treated as “Family”.
Dined at this location Saturday night. Ordered soup, salad and breadsticks, along with my friend, and an order of chicken Alfredo, and the Alfredo sauce for dipping. The waitress completely ignored our table, we had to ask several times for our salad and which they only brought enough for 1, and our Alfredo sauce. Never got a refill on our drinks, had to ask several times for a refill of ice tea and Diet Coke. Finally, when the waitress came to our table and made eye contact with us, I asked her if she was going to bring our salads and she had the nastiest attitude. Our soups were cold, the salad that we finally received, had an overload of onion and dressing, when we asked for no onion on the salad. She didn’t even offer to put cheese on it. Let’s just say it was a horrible experience and I will not be back to this location.
There’s a reason why every waiter says “can I get you started with any appetizers?” This means the appetizer will keep you occupied before the food gets delivered. Apparently our waiter, Nick, forgot this golden rule. When I brought this up, he looked dumbfounded but it is his job to check on the food. I didn’t make a big deal about it since I didn’t want to ruin anyone else’s night but mine definitely was. I hyped the appetizers and sometimes, the only reason I visit. I still tipped but maybe cut back on the tables if it’s a busy night. I think I could’ve overlooked it if the waiter was more personable. Disappointed
I’m extremely disappointed with the experience at this Olive Garden. My spouse and I arrived about 30 minutes after opening, only to be told there would be an hour-long wait. That in itself was frustrating, but what made it worse was what we saw: only about eight small parties (2–4 people each) were seated and being served. I took a look around and counted at least four hosts up front, four employees in business attire, and around ten servers actively working the floor. With that many staff on hand and a mostly empty dining room, there is absolutely no reason we should’ve been told to wait an hour. It felt more like mismanagement than anything else. This location has clearly gone downhill. What used to be a dependable spot for a nice meal now feels disorganized, uncaring, and poorly run. Very upsetting and frankly unacceptable.
Walked into the restaurant about an hour before closing so I would like to give them the benefit but the place was filthy, we got seated after walking through a bunch of trash on the floor. Once we were seated I looked behind me to see spaghetti on the booth. Service was very poor and rushed. My drink was empty and not refilled until I asked, and when we weren’t even finished eating our waitress came over and told us to pay our bill so she could clock out. Very poor experience.
Where out of breadsticks even tho it was still 2 hours till closing. Then they told us that after we already got an appetizer. And then after asking for it to go it took a whopping 20+ minutes just for the appetizer. I didn’t even wanna keep waiting I just walked out, time wasted and 15 dollars down the drain. Don’t think I’ll come back to this location(hostess with the spider tattoos also seems to not wanna be there)
Most horrible dinning experience I have ever had happened yesterday there. Everything was great until upon leaving. Our waitress came over apologizing over leaving a salad bowl with our dirty utensils still at the table, the most confusing thing is I had no idea why she was apologizing. But apparently another person that works there let her know we had been making not nice comments about her and her service and flagged her down to get the dirty plates removed from our table. I was like “what the hell? We never said anything or flagged no person down to come over??!” A lady in a wine colored shirt literally came over to our table and asked if they could remove it and we simply said “sure, thanks”. Understanding our servers position, it was still super incredibly embarrassing and harassing to be put in that position about us making comments about our server that never happened. Looking back now I felt like we got out in work “drama” and used as pawns. Very under professional of the lady and came and took our plates and then ran off to our server and told her we said things about her which was never true. I told our server to bring her over and we could clarify these allegations; but of course she didn’t want to come because they were false. I asked to speak to the manager and although he gave me a 25$ gift card for my experience… I could tell he could care less about the whole thing. I go there so often with my family and friends it’s crazy now I gotta reconsider ever going again now.. so humiliating.
This location is usually my favorite location. However, yesterday 9/1, we had a bad experience. The napkins and silverware were dirty, I asked for another set, and it never came. The zuppa toscanas potatoes were super hard couldn’t even bite into them. Service wasn’t good. The server wasn’t attentive. She seemed bugged by the napkin situation. Because of that I didn’t remind her about anything, I felt more embarrassed. I don’t know if we’ll go back to Olive Garden. We were very disappointed since we go there at least once a month.

A Familiar Comfort, Elevated: Olive Garden Santa Ana
We all know Olive Garden, right? It’s that familiar spot for unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks. But let me tell you about the Santa Ana location – it’s got a vibe that genuinely elevates the experience, making it feel less like a chain and more like a dependable local favorite for a comfortable Italian meal.What truly stands out here is the service. Multiple diners rave about the staff, and it’s clear why. Take Miranda, for instance. She’s the kind of server who remembers little details,
