I recently dined at Gulfgate Olive Garden and ordered the Shrimp Carbonara. Unfortunately, my experience was far from satisfactory. The dish had very little bacon, almost none, which was disappointing. When I mentioned this to the manager, he walked off without addressing my concern. He later returned with a cup of sauce, attempting to show me that it contained bacon, but it was clear that my dish had next to none.
This lack of attention to customer feedback and the dismissive attitude of the manager left a bad impression. I expected better service and a more satisfying meal. I hope the restaurant takes this feedback seriously and improves their customer service and dish quality.

From the Hosts to servers to management, everything was great at THIS Olive Garden! I dined in and they were awesome. The famous salsa was fresh and.made me want more
The food was great and.the attitudes of the employees here were absolutely fantastic! I didn't want to leave. They really made me feel welcome and valued. I will pass up there Olive Garden restaurants, to visit this one!!

Food was good as it usually is from Olive garden. My only complaint here is the service. Our waitress looked like she did not want to be there. Not friendly at all and almost cut you off while you were speaking. The location itself is nice inside with plenty of parking as it's in a shopping center.

Had an afternoon meal at the Gulfgate Mall Olive Garden February 17; we parked and walked to enter the restaurant. While waiting to be seated I took photos within the new restaurant; the right side of the building is a spacious to go order area. The left side has a spacious bar and dining area that is very different than the other nearby Olive Garden locations.
We were seated at a table near the window and Angela greeted and promptly attended to our requested food and beverages. I'll have to have the kitchen slice the Italian sausage so it looks better photographed in the 5 cheese marinara pasta entree ordered 😅. The other entree, seafood alfredo with broccoli, was beautifully prepared. Bill was expected (food has gone up everywhere), but the ambiance, food and portions were great.
Though I'd rather have an Applebee's or another restaurant built at Gulfgate (NRG Olive Garden is not far away from there!), we will definitely return because of the food and service received. Stop by because seeing is believing.
