Olive Garden

I enjoy Olive Garden and very much looked forward to our lunch on Sunday, August 18. Decided to try something new; but when the Chicken Margherita arrived, I was sooooo disappointed. Plate looked like something was missing. There were three small, thin planks of zucchini which looked like they'd been cut in half. Not much sauce on the chicken, and frankly there wasn't much flavor. I did not comment at the restaurant because I was with a group, but I actually left the restaurant hungry. The salad was good. For the price of this entree, there should have been more zucchini. It would have also filled the plate and made a better presentation. I knew there would be no pasta, but I would recommend an inexpensive (99 cent) option to add a small serving of pasta with the sauce on it. There was definitely room on the place for pasta or more zucchini.

My husband was a little disappointed in his Chicken Piccata. It was very good, but he would have enjoyed more sauce. He had expected pasta to be served with it (as at many other restaurants). In fact, when we discussed it on the way home, he said he thought they'd just forgotten to put pasta on our plates and didn't want to complain.

We pass two other Olive Gardens to meet friends at this location. It always good. This time, we were very disappointed.
