  First of all, I’d like to say I’m obsessed with the Gnocchi soup (I recommend dipping the breadsticks in it). I also ordered the grilled chicken cheese stuffed tortellini. The tortellini was so soft it melted apart while eating. Very good and the sauce was too. I don’t eat salad but my partner swears the sauce is the best had. We also have always loved their margaritas. Best I’ve ever had, strong but tasty and smooth. We also didn’t have to wait forever for our drinks, they came a few minutes after being seated. We were welcomed coming in, and our waitress was very attentive. Although we did have to ask for breadsticks, they were not brought with our soup and salad. Our waitress even put our food in our to-go containers. When we were leaving we were also wished well by the staff. For a busy location we were surprised by the attentiveness and friendliness of the staff.

  First and foremost, Olive Garden is one of my favorite restaurants. I try to stop at Olive Garden whenever I find one because the food is usually amazing. I stopped in this location in Bloomington and it was not up to expectations. The service was horrible. Outside the person who greeted us coming in and one of the three employees sitting near the door visiting with each other, there was not a single piece of evidence they wanted customers. The waitress/server ignored us three separate times. First, we ordered a chicken Alfredo and got fettuccine Alfredo instead. We didn't complain. It happens. My son said he did not want cheese on his soup and she put some much cheese we were a bit put off. Our final issue was her overall rudeness. I get that jobs can be rough. We can all have a bad day. I just didn't feel like we were wanted there and for the price we paid it was a terrible experience. The bread sticks were hard as the bricks used to erect the buildging. I will not eat here at this location again.

  Our experience started off amazing! Our waitress was fabulous and immediately brought us extra breadsticks. We were so impressed with how busy she was and how attentive she was that we were going to give her our weekly Covid tip (we choose someone once a week to give a huge tip to as a thank you for working). Well, it quickly went downhill. She never came to check on us after our food was brought. There wasn't near enough sauce on my alfredo, so the noodles were sticky and dry. My husband's chicken in his alfredo was legit grisly, we didnt get a single refill until 10 minutes before we left and she never brought us a single refill on the "unlimited" breadsticks. Then we asked for a box and it took another 10 minutes. There was even extra food on our bill that we had to wait for them to take off. Needless to say, our weekly Covid tip is still up for grabs and I'm sad I didnt get any breadsticks with my slightly tasteless leftovers today! **update** we went again in april 2022 and the service and food are still not amazing!

  Hubby was craving Lasagna so we stopped for lunch. I just got the soup ( Pasta Fagoli) and salad. We both enjoyed our meals. Veronica was a super server!
