The History of Olive Garden

Olive Garden Italian Restaurant was founded in 1982 when General Mills opened the first location in Orlando, Florida. The restaurant was created to bring the warmth and hospitality of Italian dining to American families at an affordable price. The concept was simple: serve generous portions of classic Italian food in a family-friendly atmosphere with exceptional value, highlighted by unlimited breadsticks and salad with every meal.

In 1995, Olive Garden became part of Darden Restaurants, which was spun off from General Mills as an independent publicly traded company. Under Darden, Olive Garden grew rapidly to become the largest Italian casual dining chain in the United States. The Culinary Institute of Tuscany was established in Castellina in Chianti, Italy, where Olive Garden chefs travel to learn authentic Italian cooking techniques and bring those flavors back to American kitchens.

By the 2000s, Olive Garden had over 800 locations and had become an American cultural icon. The unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks deal became legendary, and promotions like the Never Ending Pasta Bowl and Buy One Take One drew huge crowds. The restaurant continued to innovate with new menu items while keeping beloved classics like Chicken Alfredo, Lasagna Classico, and Fettuccine Alfredo as permanent fixtures.

Today, Olive Garden operates over 900 locations across the United States and Canada. The restaurant continues to offer its signature Italian-American comfort food, a welcoming family atmosphere, and industry-leading value. The breadsticks remain an American icon, baked fresh throughout the day and brushed with garlic butter. Olive Garden proves that great Italian food can be both delicious and accessible to everyone.

Olive Garden Ordering Guide: Best Value in 2026

Getting the best value at Olive Garden starts with understanding what is included free with every entree. When dining in, every entree comes with unlimited soup or salad and unlimited warm garlic breadsticks. This means a $14.79 entree gives you a complete multi-course Italian meal. Ask for as many refills as you want.

The single best value at Olive Garden is the Unlimited Soup, Salad and Breadsticks at $10.99. For one low price, you can enjoy as many bowls of soup, plates of salad, and breadsticks as you like. Choose from five signature soups including Chicken and Gnocchi, Zuppa Toscana, and Pasta e Fagioli. This is a complete, filling meal at an unbeatable price.

The $6 Take Home Entree is another incredible deal. When you dine in and order a regular-priced entree, you can add a second pasta entree to take home for just $6. This gives you two full meals, the first with unlimited soup, salad, and breadsticks, for the price of one entree plus $6. The take-home options include popular dishes like Fettuccine Alfredo, Spaghetti with Meat Sauce, and Five Cheese Ziti al Forno.

For feeding a group, Olive Garden Family Pans are an excellent value. A Fettuccine Alfredo Family Pan serves 4 to 6 people for around $34.99, which works out to about $7 per person. For larger events, catering pans serve 12 to 15 guests at very competitive per-person pricing. Add a catering salad and breadstick bundle to complete the spread.
