Olive Garden Italian Restaurant Review »
When I think of Italian, I have to admit that I really don't think "Olive Garden". But our son wanted to go to a movie to meet some friends, and around the Northlake mall, there isn't a huge selection (there is a large selection, but most are chains) so we decided to try the new location and see how it was. The building is awesome. It's like a Tuscan villa. The food is pretty standard fare.
You probably won't be disappointed, and the bill won't be too bad, but it's not going to knock your socks off either. It left us just feeling so-so. The baked cheese appetizer was the bet thing we had, and that left quite a bit of time for realizing just how average the rest of the meal was. Even the desserts weren't that great. Better to have something good than nothing, but they should finish well instead of starting well, so you're not sitting there thinking about how good the first thing was.
