The restaurant I chose to evaluate is the Olive Garden. The Olive Garden is a well-known corporate chain restaurant that offers a variety of Italian dishes. The Olive Garden is a mid-range price, causal restaurant specializing in Italian food. The atmosphere here is welcoming, the food is decent and the service is mediocre. A particular visit last month proved to me that Olive Garden lives up to the expectations of its guests. The casual attire allows me to feel relaxed like I am at home. It was loud at times but gave me the feeling of being with a large Italian family eating good food and having fun. The walls had very decorative décor and gave the feel of an Italian marketplace. Pulling into the oversized parking lot, the first thing I noticed was all the landscaping and how well it was maintained. I found the restaurant overall very well maintained and clean. ------------------------------------------------- Olive Garden offers a wide variety menu of Italian specialties. First I started off with an appetizer. Next were the soup or salad, and breadsticks while I was taking a look at the menu. It contained a wide range of lasagna, chicken parmesan, seafood, and pastas. The meal I ordered was the Chicken Parmigiana. It came with Parmesan-breaded chicken breasts, fried and topped with marinara sauce and mozzarella cheese and was served with spaghetti. . I was very satisfied with my appetizer, the all you can eat salad and bread sticks, and of course chicken parmigiana. And finally the service at the Olive Garden caught my attention. As soon as we walked through the door we heard, “Hello, how are you and welcome to the olive garden”. We were taken to our table and asked if we would like to order any drinks. Our drinks were received and the order was taken in a timely manner. The server was very knowledgeable of the menu and was very polite while taking our order.
