Olive Garden Calabrian Steak & Shrimp Bucatini Complete Information

The Olive Garden Calabrian Steak & Shrimp Bucatini is one of the most popular classic entrées items on the Olive Garden Menu, priced at $23.99 ($23.49 to $30.29 depending on your state). A standard serving contains 1220 calories.

Ingredients Summary

Sirloin tips grilled to medium, sautéed shrimp, bucatini pasta, Calabrian chili cream sauce, fresh spinach and diced tomatoes.

Taste Profile

Creamy with a real chili kick, the bucatini's hollow center trapping sauce in every bite. The steak brings char, the shrimp sweetness, and the spinach keeps it from feeling heavy.

Health insight

At 78 g of protein it is one of the highest protein plates on the menu, but 2,960 mg of sodium is well past a full day's limit.

Healthier alternative: The 6 oz sirloin with broccoli instead of alfredo gives steak with far less sodium.

Editorial
“The most restaurant like dish Olive Garden serves right now. The chili cream sauce is worth the price; the steak is cooked medium and arrives that way.”

Menu Hacks & Pro Tips

#1Ask for the steak cooked to your preference; the menu default is medium but the kitchen adjusts.
#2Request extra spinach at no charge to stretch the sauce over more bites.
#3Order the lunch soup and salad first and take half of this home; the sauce reheats well.
