About
Olive Garden Italian Restaurant, located on Capital Blvd in Raleigh, brings a delightful taste of Italy to the table. Known for its casual and cozy atmosphere, it’s a fantastic spot for families, students, or anyone craving comforting Italian fare. While reviews mention some inconsistency in service and seasoning, diners rave about the warm hospitality, extensive wine selection, and delectable desserts like the strawberry cake. With affordable prices and a wide array of gluten-free and vegetarian options, it's a welcoming destination for lunch, dinner, or a quick takeout meal.
I recently revisited Olive Garden and was delighted to see improvements since my last trip! 😊
The soup was exceptional - creamy and loaded with tender potatoes and savory sausage. For my entrée, I had the shrimp scampi, which was cooked perfectly. My husband enjoyed the Tour of Italy and we each had enough for leftovers!
We ended on a high note with the strawberry cake for dessert - light and bursting with strawberry sauce.
Our server was attentive, checking in frequently to ensure we had everything we needed, making our experience feel special. Can’t wait to go back! 🍰
