Olive Garden - Friendswood

It 's True What They Say U Do Feel Like Family! Outstanding Server Never A Long Wait; Excellent Food.. Tour Of Italy Has Always Been My Favorite Dish...

This location was getting better, but the last two visits got worse and worse. Last time there was a hair in our food, this time we were seated in the back and literally forgotten. The people in the booth next to us experienced the same, but were given all this food to take home at the end that made them question why. We on the other hand were given lunch portions of food when we didn't order a lunch portion. I thought lunch portions were for weekdays anyway and not the weekend. The salad had almost no dressing on it. The soup was cold. A server walking by decided to help us after seeing us still waiting for someone to help, and numerous servers as well as the manager walked by without saying anything to us. We almost left until someone took our order and someone else took our table, both saying it wasn't their table. Two people were helping a big table and that's it. When the guests at that table left, he kept coming and vacuuming by us when our floor wasn't even in the vicinity of that table and wasn't dirty. It was absolutely ridiculous and when I tried to fill out a survey on the kiosk, it said something was wrong with it, so Idk if they saw it but someone needs to fix these issues ASAP. I felt bad I even suggested going here for lunch today. We thought this location was the best but it's headed in the other direction.

This Olive Garden has consistently been very good. The food is always hot and delicious, the service is great, and the prices are somewhat reasonable. The prices have definitely gone up in recent years, but I feel that you get good value here. The unlimited soup or salad with your entree is always a nice bonus. Never tried the drinks or dessert here so I can't speak to that.

We kept the server running back and forth for things we forgot to ask for the last time she was there, but through it all, she stayed pleasant and polite.

The food was very good, the taste, quality and looks good, the service was amazing, the staff do the job correctly. It had a vibrant atmosphere. I would recommend this place Overall 9/10
