Olive Garden Menus Review
Editorial
“The dish that made Olive Garden famous, and it is still the best version of chain alfredo in the country. Order the smaller size and add a protein; the full plate is too much of one thing.”

Menu Hacks & Pro Tips

#1Order the lunch portion on weekdays before 3 PM and add grilled chicken; it is a smaller chicken alfredo for far less.
#2Ask for a side of marinara and mix a spoonful in for a pink sauce the kitchen calls rosa.
#3Get an extra side of alfredo for breadstick dipping instead of ordering the dipping sauce appetizer.
