I always wondered how expansive and incredibly tasty the Olive Garden menu truly is. I've seen their commercials packed with endless breadsticks, rich pasta bowls, and desserts that can truly make anyone's mouth water, so what exactly do they serve?

I did some intensive research and came up with a complete breakdown of the Olive Garden restaurant menu, from their signature endless soups to savory family meals and sweet Italian treats. We will closely look at what is actively on the menu, what makes it so special, and why people absolutely love eating at Olive Garden.

I've carefully organized the complete Olive Garden menu into 16 different categories like Classic Entrées, Soups, Desserts, and more to help you quickly find exactly what you're craving today. From small appetizers to full family-style meals, everything is neatly arranged below for your convenience.

10 Ways to Save Money
at Olive Garden

I've put together a quick list of genuine, tested tips that actually help me stretch my wallet without feeling like I'm cutting corners on my meal.

1

Sign Up for the eClub

I always recommend just typing your email into their website. It gets you a free dessert or appetizer on your very first visit, plus they actually send me decent coupons on my birthday every year.

2

Stick to the Lunch Menu

If I show up before 3 PM, I get practically the exact same food as the dinner menu but I pay significantly less. The endless soup and salad combo on the lunch menu is an absolute steal for me.

3

Box Up the Free Breadsticks

Right as I am finishing my meal, I always politely ask my server for one final basket of free breadsticks. They almost always bring a fresh batch directly in a to-go box for me to take home completely free.

4

Use 'Buy One, Take One'

I love that I basically pay for my dinner tonight and they physically hand me a completely separate, chilled fresh pasta meal packaged perfectly to toss in my fridge for lunch tomorrow.

5

Split the Tour of Italy

It is a massive plate consisting of three completely dense foods for me. It is genuinely way too much for one person, so I just split it with someone and grab an extra side salad.

6

Order Kids Meals to Go

If I order online for curbside pickup, nobody actually checks my age. I easily order off the children's menu to snag a smaller, way cheaper meal that still hits the spot perfectly.

7

Ask to Sample the Wine

Before I aggressively commit to a full glass or a whole bottle, I actually ask my server to taste a tiny sample of most house wines to make sure I like it first, absolutely free.

8

Swap the Noodles for Free

I learned I aren't permanently locked into the exact menu descriptions. If I want angel hair instead of rigatoni with my chicken, I just ask them to swap it. There is zero upcharge for basic noodle swaps.

9

Buy the Giant Dressing Bottle

Since I love the house Italian dressing, I don't buy the tiny bottles at the grocery store. I literally ask my server to buy a massive restaurant-sized bottle of it for a really fair price to take home.

10

Wait for Seasonal Promos

The famous Never Ending Pasta Bowl usually rolls around in the fall for me. It is literally the cheapest way I can feed myself impossible amounts of pasta and try every sauce they offer.
