Olive Garden Kids Menu Menu
The Olive Garden kids menu has 11 meals for children under 12, ten of them at $6.99 with a side and a drink included, and the grilled chicken rotini at $9.28. Choices run from pasta with tomato, meat, alfredo or five cheese marinara sauce to pizza, chicken fingers, macaroni and cheese and three gluten sensitive rotini dishes.
Kids meals at Olive Garden are priced as a bundle: the entrée, a side such as grapes, broccoli, mashed potatoes or fries, and a drink. Pasta meals let kids pick fettuccine, spaghetti or small shells and add a protein for a small charge. This page lists every kids meal with the typical price, calories from the official guide and allergens, and points out the vegan, vegetarian and gluten sensitive choices. Adults get the unlimited breadsticks; kids get their own basket too.

Olive Garden Kids Menu Overview
Four sauce and pasta meals form the core: tomato sauce, meat sauce, five cheese marinara and alfredo, each with a choice of fettuccine, spaghetti or small shells. Then come cheese ravioli, macaroni and cheese, pizza and chicken fingers, and three gluten sensitive rotini meals served with grapes.
Every meal except the grilled chicken rotini costs $6.99, which makes the kids menu the most predictable line on the bill.

Healthier Ordering Tips for Kids Menu
- Tomato sauce pasta (80 cal for the sauce) with grapes is the lightest kids meal on the menu.
- Pick grapes or broccoli over fries to save about 240 calories.
- Milk or juice beats soda; both are included in the meal price.

Final Thoughts
The Olive Garden kids menu is cheap, flexible and sized right, with a side and a drink built in. Tomato or meat sauce pasta with grapes is the everyday order; pizza and chicken fingers are the fallbacks; and the rotini meals mean a child with celiac disease is not left out.
