Was recommended to try this restaurant and very glad we were. Great staff, great service and great food. Both the beef and the lamb were cooked to perfection, the accompanying potatoes and vegetables were just as fabulous. Very nice starters as well. So if you are in the area and fancy some excellent food in good surroundings, along with great service give this fabulous restaurant a try.

We've been looking for a good place to eat with a wide variety of gluten free and vegetarian options which are actually open and don't close at 5.30 or 8 O'clock. Usually head to the country but thought we'd try The Olive Garden, what a real gem we have now found. The staff were excellent throughout being friendly, helpful for those with dietary requirements, knowledgeable about the menu and always attentive but not in your face. If you need more, you're given an electronic gizmo for calling for attention or your bill. We ate outside in one of the "sheds" which was light, airy, comfortable, clean and more than I'd expected. The menu, like the portions, is immense. Apart from the "steak and chips with Tommy k" brigade there's something for everyone (and they do the steak - not sure about the Tommy k) and more for the more adventurous. The meals were served piping hot and the portion size impressive. We did manage a small pudding which was also delicious. I can't comment on how authentic the menu is but it makes me want to go and find out. The cost for three of us with drinks came to £20 a head which is far better than I've ha given the quality of service and meal than I've tried in a long time. Great place, thank you and well done. We'll definitely be coming back.

Food is absolutely amazing with generous portions. I love going or ordering from Olive Garden. I think that overall food is worth it and service is great. Also been there as part of a small gathering which was nice as well.

We booked a table for sat night where we were put was ok except over bar area and all we could here was staff slating customers and kitchen staff the phone constantly left in answered I appreciate they said they were busy to other customers coming in asking for tables we were served 1 drink and were never asked if we would like more and we would have done we would have also liked a sweet but were never asked that either so in the end we decided to leave I mentioned these issues when we paid the bill a random waitress said sorry but the lady who seemed to in charge who had been very verbal in bar area throughout our time in restaurant never said a word as this was our first wedding anniversary we could actually celebrate because of lock down we feel very let down and disappointed shame on your service Olive Garden food was ok

My wife and I visited this restaurant and was thoroughly unimpressed by the poor level of service shown by a female waitress. The disregard for manners and lack of common courtesy means that my wife and I will take our business elsewhere and will not be recommending it to anyone else. It's a shame as the food was great, it's a shame the female waitress I was 'served' by could not uphold the same level of standards, let alone small talk. I hope you take this review seriously and understand that poor customer service can and will push the business into the ground. Please re-train the member of staff that attempted to look after us. Kind regards, David and Sue.

My mother in law took us here for dinner when we were visiting them. The menu was decent enough but for a greek restaurant I thought there was a serious lack of lamb. I had prawns to start of which there were plenty in a tomato sauce and for main I had a chicken gyro but it was literally just chicken in a pitta bread with rice and a side salad and I chose taramasolata as my dip. Washed the meal down with a cosmopolitan cocktail which was nice. The staff were friendly and attentive.
