This is regarding the Olive garden at 1380 highway 65 in Fayetteville Georgia. Since when is it okay to take a woman's tip and fire her from her job when she has an autistic son and then call the police on her because she cried? What kind of people run a restaurant like this? I think that they owe her a public apology and her job and her money back they had no right to steal that from her and until then nobody's we're going to boycott them. We're going to give them bad publicity because they did her wrong and we don't appreciate that

Sticky Table
Sunday Jun 7, 2026, I went to Olive Garden arriving shortly after opening. The table I was seated at looked like everything was in order. The book I brought with me stuck to the table. And the feel of the table to my touch was just off is the best way I can describe it. I was served promptly and the meal was what I expected. Thinking the cover of my book was the problem, on the way out I tried putting it down and sliding it on a couple of other tables. Slid quite well. I now call this the book slide test. As I left, I decided to tell the manager. 3 employees were standing and chatting at the front counter. I told them I'd like to talk to the manager. Short blond girl snickered and said she'd get him right away. She did not pick up the phone to call. She did not seek him out. Instead, she turned to the other two and continued talking to them. Seeing her response, I left without opportunity to express my disappointment to management.
This business is trash, and whoever runs that Fayetteville location is disgusting. Firing Brook Skyes the literal day after a customer left her a life-changing $700 tip on a $32 bill is pathetic, greedy power trip.

How dare yall fire that poor single mom…
How dare yall fire that poor single mom and not allow her to have her tip !!
Oliver garden taking that woman's $700 tip and firing her also calling the cops on her shame on you. You've lost a lot more than $700 with the bad PR and customers hearing this who won't dine with you anymore.
Olive Garden, y’all are actually disgusting. A hardworking server gets a $700 tip and you snatch it from her? Telling her to write zero on the receipt then firing her the next day when she gets upset? She’s a single mom trying to provide for her autistic kid and you still took her money because it’s never enough for you greedy fk.
Corporate theft at its worst. That girl deserved every penny. Shame on you

Sunday Lunch in Pensacola, FL
Went for Sunday lunch. Ordered entree and soup. Entrees were cold. Soup tasted "funny" and my daughter's second bowl had no gnocchi in it -only 1 small piece of chicken. The waitress was embarrassed and harried but did the best she could. Will not be returning. The quality of the food has gone down and it seems the prices have gone up.

Happy Mother’s Day
Happy Mother’s Day! I asked for extra sauce on the side and they left the noodles bare and gave me enough sauce on the side for about ten noodles. So much for me not cooking today guess I’ll go see if I have some Ragu
Service was great, place was clean. Servers very polite and considerate. My complaint is the food, soup was bland with little flavor. So was my friends soup very bland. Bread sticks were cold and no butter on them like there used to be. Very disappointed.

Great Service!
My wife and I had a great dining experience. Adriana, our waitress, was very attentive to our needs. We asked for a few modifications be done to our dinner selections and our waitress took care of them with no problems. Would visit that location again in the future:
4805 Capital Blvd.
Raleigh, NC 27616
Ordered the $20.49 grilled chicken alfredo and was extremely disappointed because the pasta had about one tablespoon of alfredo sauce whie the grilled chicken was plumped up with what tasted like salt and water. The grilled chicken had a texture like jello within it.

I ordered fettuccine Alfredo
I ordered fettuccine Alfredo. And received a very small portion. We go to Olive Garden several times a month one of my favorite restaurants. I complained this isn’t the portion I normal get. The manger refused to do anything about it. I didn’t want it free just charge me for what I received. I have pics to prove

OLIVE GARDEN EXCELLENT CELIAC MANAGEMENT
My husband and I went to Olive Garden in Lakewood yesterday, I have Celiac disease so need accomodations for a gluten free meal. VERY IMPORTANT. I ordered their Gluten sensitive meal on the menu and stated I needed that because of a medical need. Right away, the lovely server, Alex, assured me, I had no worries. And, my meal was followed by, in fact, even prepared, by Fabby, the manager. THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH!!!!

The Portabello Ravioli dinner
The Portabello Ravioli dinner was just excellent. It was recently taken off the menu. IT NEEDS TO BE BACK ON THE MENU. It was great. Iwould eat it every day if I could.

Horrible waiter
Food was very disappointing, and the service was disrespectful, defiant, even offensive. The waiter was obviously ignorant of his tasks but very knowledgeable in disrespecting his customers. Out of a party of ten, at least one is never going back to that place: me.

Thought I'd take my daughter out to…
Thought I'd take my daughter out to what I had remembered as an affordable, excellent tasting eatery. Our service was fine. I ordered the bottomless soup, salad and breadsticks. When we got the salad I ate a plate of salad and so did my daughter. When I went for a second plate I noticed a rather long hair in the main bowl. It wasn't one of ours both being shorter haired. I removed the hair and requested a second bowl but we'd mostly lost our appetite by that time. And when the check came it was for way more than I would consider reasonable. We took our food to go. The next day I went to eat the leftover salad and lo and behold another hair. I don't think I'll be going to another Olive Garden. At the very least it won't be the Salinas, Ca location.
