Olive Garden Italian Restaurant in Chico

I had a wonderful experience my first time dining out at Olive Garden with my family. I give the restaurant we ate at in Yuba City 5 stars! Everything was delicious from the free salad and bread sticks to the meal I ordered . It was all perfect! Not to mention the customer service was spectacular.

I had not been here in a long while, but it’s one of those places thats always the same, you know? I’m giving this place 5 stars mostly because of the service. Our waitress was so cool, she was a pretty person with a big smile and good energy. The kinda people I LOVE. We were kindly greeted and seated as soon as we walked through the door. As soon as we sat down we ordered our drinks and they were brought to us at the speed of light along with a salad and bread sticks. We ordered the Shrimp Fritto Misto for an appetizer and they came out HOT. I even told the girl, like wow are you guys always this fast? I was impressed. The salad was fresh, the bread was hot, and the appetizer was hot and crispy. I recommend you give that appetizer a try next time because it was good…. okay and the food came out quick and hot as well but at that point I was too stuffed to eat it and had to ask for a little box and take it home. I’m guilty of going HAM with the appetizers. Overall I give this visit a 10/10. If I end up going back in the future and they let me down I will update my review accordingly.

The Olive Garden sure saved the day!I didnt much want to go all the way to Chico, but my old pal Blaster Irongates daughter was having problems with one of her professors there at the Chico State. Theres nothing I like better than being able to lend a hand to a struggling student, so I went all in. Ill tell you, nobody can top the Olive Garden for consistently great pasta, and no matter which location you dine at the food is always a 5 star item. Oh, and we set that professor straight, believe me because we put the fear of God into him, hell be teaching his coarse and no longer teaching his viewpoints, thats for sure.

Tonight I was accidentally given the wrong order to go. Even though the receipt was correct, the food inside the bag was not. Which I did not discover until I got home. I went back to the restaurant and said what happened. Not only did the manager Vicky apologize for the mistake, she quickly got the correct order, but then went above and beyond! She also refunded the cost of the meal and gave us a $20 gift card!! I was blown away by the gesture. All I wanted was the correct order. Thank you so much!! ☺️☺️☺️☺️

I just had the soup n salad dish. I was real impressed by how good the Kale, sausage n potatoe soup was, wonderful flavor! The salad n bread sticks were good as always. Ive always like the salad dressing, red onions and croutons. The bread sticks complement the meal off. My waitress was so sweet, her smell was my dessert.

We went there for an early dinner on a weeknight. The place was empty but we were told itd be a half hour wait for a table by the windows and only at the bar would we be able to sit right away. Because they had no servers. What?? UNBELIEVABLE. But we didnt want to wait so sat by the bar.A chicken pasta meal was 23 dollars!!!!! (Plus rax/tip) I mean we were not at the Ritz. We ordered it and shared it. It was pretty good. The chicken strips tasted kinda weird, sort of rubbery. The pasta was good though and the gal who served us was really good.In 1019 I learned olive garden removed my favorite dish from their menu and nothing else even comes close. So we hadnt been there since. I had hoped to see it back on the menu but no. So I wont go back.

4-6-19 - The service was great today. I had one of the specials they had, chicken parmigiana (chicken was literally about 12 inches long), and my husband had the streak and Alfredo. I tasted the steak, and the seasonings were nothing to die for but was good, but the chicken was great. Service was wonderful, and the waitress/server (Amanda) made sure we had a free dessert to share for our anniversary. For an appetizer, we had the loaded pasta chips. They were pretty good as well. Kinda larger than I expected. I could have used that as a dinner plate, lol.4-13-23 - Todays service was excellent. Our server was great about everything. He made sure our drinks were filled at all times. He came frequently to make sure everything was up to standards. He packaged up our leftovers perfectly. It was a great visit.

Tonight we celebrated moms 74th birthday dinner at Olive Garden and we had Brandon A. As our server, he was excellent from the start, we couldn’t have asked for a better waiter! Thank you for making moms dinner more special and thanks for all you do! Thank you from your party of 7 that sat in the corner! You are greatly appreciated!

The endless soup, salad & breadsticks won me over! Its been at least 10 years, and it felt like it was the same. Consistency is so hard to find these days. Thank you for being the best!

Food was great. First time having a birthday at a restaurant where the waiters sing happy birthday. Good experience
