Fantastic food and service. Definitely

Cold food, hair in the bolognese, the staff were quite rude to be truthful. Very unhappy would not recommend or go again.

Food was mediocre but unfortunately that was far from the biggest issue. The young waitressing staff were lovely, however the manager, Mohsin, has a disgraceful attitude. Being rude, picking arguments with customers, personal attacks and getting in our faces is NOT how to run your business. I can only sympathise with the staff who work for him as if he will speak to customers in such manner, who knows how he treats them. It was my first time dining here, with a group who had been numerous times before. I won’t be returning. Save your money, or spend it on other small businesses (or even big chain restaurants), who deserve the money more. 1 star is being polite, however I cannot give less on Google. As mentioned in another review I have seen, the owner was sat eating food in the waiting/bar area with the sports channel blurring through the restaurant. Very unpleasant visit. Glad it was my first and last.

Disgusting! When ringing for a table for tonight, I remembered this restaurant takes a Taste Card and asked if this was available on a Saturday. I was informed yes we accepted it on a Saturday. As this wasn’t a common thing I rang again to check if it was available on a Saturday and again it was confirmed. When coming to pay the Taste Card was refused. I did say I had rang to check this twice when booking the table. The manager then came to the table in a disgusting manner and belittled the whole table in front of a busy restaurant. I took this conversation to the bar to save the embarrassment of my family, including children, to be told “I am a chancer” and “I’m disgusting to ask for this on a Saturday” I replied and said I rang twice to which he said “I employ part time staff and they don’t know anything”. I’m not sure I have ever been spoken to in a more disgusting manner and over something that could have been resolved with a simple “I’m so sorry for the misinformation”.The attitude of the Manager Mohsin is disgusting towards customers and his staff.Please stay clear to avoid this type of behaviour.If I could give this place 0 stars I would!To say we will never be back is an understatement!

First time trying here last night, lovely restaurant, not too busy, food was delicious, service was quick staff are lovely too. I had the beef stroganoff as I've never had this before it was really nice + really filling. Garlic bread with cheese was delicious!

Olive garden continues to be THE best Italian in the area. The food is always fantastic and I come about once a month so have had plenty of the dishes. The service is always amazing, the staff are always welcoming and accommodating. Forever will be one of my all time favourite restaurants and I could not recommend it enough.

We ate here yesterday as we were passing, family of 5 plus two adults, food was very nice, I had the Rigatoni Amatricana which was excellent. We also tried a pizza I had never had before which was the Parma Pizza, which had Parma ham, walnuts and honey! ?

Don't let the outside fool you as despite appearing a little run down once you enter you'll find really really good food and a lovely atmosphere and decor with excellent friendly service.Recommended.
This is my favourite Italian restaurant. For my 40th I was taken to San Carlo in Manchester by my parents which was expensive and not worth the money. My husband brought me here to the Olive Garden 2 days later and it was fabulous. The food was fresh and tasty, the service was genuine and welcoming. Definitely coming back!

We booked a table for 17:45 on a Sunday evening for 7 people. 5 adults 1 child and 1 teenager. We arrived on time and were quickly show to our table. The restaurant was quite full with a couple of large parties. We ordered drinks and then our order was taken. We then waited for our starters, and waited and waited. At around 18:50 we asked were our food was. We were told that it would be 5 minutes. At 7 oclock we again asked. We explained that we hadn’t had our started to which the manager looked shocked. He came back to say our mains were ready and that the chefs had made a mistake. We then said so we are not getting our starters. He explained we could have our starters and they would make our main meals fresh. At this point we decided it would be better to leave. In fairness we were offered a free meal, but as this has happened before in this restaurant were we have waited a long time for meals. Everyone deserves a second chance not a third. The place is being badly run. Nobody checking on tables or in charge of certain sections of the resturant. If we had a waitress or waiter who was looking after the area we where in they would of noticed that we had had no food. We felt like we were just forgot about and then the chefs were blamed. The manager should have a better grasp of how the restaurant is operating. Its a shame because that pizza oven is being wasted. We won’t be back.

First visit to Olive Garden and we had a fabulous experience. All of the staff were friendly and efficient. The food was delicious. We had the flat iron steak and the ribs. Both were perfectly cooked. We then had the home made tiramisu. Again, delicious. Highly recommended!
