Olive Garden Mchenry

Dined in for 2 family birthdays the other night. Food was good and the restaurant provides each birthday person a free dessert with a birthday song. Friendly service and very attentive even though the server had several tables. Always a good family experience.

Food is always good. But the staff always is exceptional. Every single time. Our server Monica (McHenry, Illinois), was engaging, quick witted and sassy without a touch of rudeness. Just made a good meal great.

Olive Garden might not be the most authentic Italian restaurant, but it's a good Italian restaurant and a popular chain. The food is consistently good, if sometimes expensive, and it's always worth the visit in my opinion. It's also one of the few restaurants that has food options that are completely vegetarian, which is sometimes a tricky proposition... Vegetarian safe cheese is not available at all restaurants or on all dishes here or anywhere else, but at least there are some options at Olive Garden.

We experienced a minor issue with our food, but the manager, Brian, addressed it quickly and effectively. The highlight of our visit was our server, Gage. He was incredibly fast with his service and made sure we had an endless supply of breadsticks! In a world that often prioritizes facts, it was clear that Gage is passionate about his job. Thank you for making our Saturday a wonderful experience!

I took my 3-year-old son out for our first lunch date, and it turned out to be a wonderful experience. Our server, Angel, was incredibly helpful and polite. The staff was also lovely, and the timing was perfect since the restaurant wasn't too busy. I look forward to returning with my son for another visit!
