I work at Olive Garden. I’m in my last two weeks so I feel comfortable actually posting this lol Our food is cooked fresh, but because we sell SO much of it every day we have to prep certain things in the morning and chill them before heating them again. Pasta is precooked, as well as sauces, and soups. I have gotten food poisoning twice, from the braised beef and from the chicken Parm. Eat those items at your own risk. Desserts are made by a third party, sent to us frozen, and we fridge-thaw them and serve. The breadsticks come to us frozen, we heat them in a designated oven, coat in margarine, season with garlic salt, and send them to the table. If your marinara or Alfredo sauce is mixed into your pasta, not centered on the top, your food was sitting in the window for so long it died and they stirred it back to life. Eat at your own discretion. If you order from the to-go station, they have your food ready to go to the bag 10 minutes before your expected arrival, and they put it in a warmer to keep it hot until you pick it up. If you are later than you said you’d be, your food will get old and stale. Show up to pick up your order when you said you’ll be there, otherwise it’s not their fault the quality sucks.
My location doesn't get the breadsticks frozen.. Ive heard this is a thing elsewhere but at the 3 locations I've worked they all get them prebaked locally and delivered 3 to four times a week.
As an employee of 3 years in 3 different locations in the South, this video represented pretty accurately the food imo. The sizes are similar and honestly the food was plated well. As a lot of commenters already said, the food isn’t fresh, there’s a lot of freezing and thawing happening with most things, but the food isn’t trash. And working for the company is pretty awesome too, I get really good health benefits at pretty affordable rates so, it’s not like some 5 star gourmet place but Olive Garden ain’t that bad, just saying.
I don't think people understand this is filmed throughout a day then edited. She may have had more alcohol than what you see and also she may have sat w said alcohol in her system for a while between takes so she's tipsy when they film again. She doesn't just eat in an hour, this is filmed throughout the day.
I work there currently. We don't microwave very much at all. There's only 2-3 items (mostly in the appetizers) where something is microwaved. Everything else is on the grill, in the saute station, everything is fried right then and there, pasta is cooked and re-boiled in pasta boilers, soup is always fresh.
@@marissatierney4773 lets work this out. What you wrote "they are shit isn't..." or they're. "Their" is the correct "their" because it shows ownership. Look at that over "there" . You're or you are welcome.
I love watching you try all of these restaurant menu items because that way I get a real life preview of exactly what things look like and you give such honest and true opinions of the food. Love your channel! Thanks much!
Can you please add subtitles to this video and make it audio accessible to those who cannot hear but wish to know what you are saying regarding the food? Thank you kindly
Olive garden is where me and my husband went for dinner the day before our wedding and they paid for our entire meal plus dessert. Was one of the best experiences at olive garden that weve had
Glad to see someone giving Olive Garden, an honest review of how they think the food taste rather than just automatically trashing it. I have been to love Olive Garden . I have been to Italian restaurants and paid three times as much and not been as satisfied. I can’t say that every dish I’ve had there is the best dish I’ve ever had, but I never leave their disappointed.
I almost questioned what *fluffy cheese* was (in terms of...I dunno, anything) then I realized she is eating *lasagna dip* . I *LOVE* this channel... its like a ghetto Bon Appetit that made love with Thrillest.
Julie is just so sweet and I love all of her videos. I rewatch them after a while because she makes me smile!! Keep these videos going forever please 😊
I think she meant like stereotypical fruity. Like those sweet or sour fruits. But tomatoes are like sweet and acidic. You wouldn't call tomato sauce fruity, now would you
Julia, you are amazing. Rewatching alllll of these in memorium of the series ending. Thank you for all the glorious episodes. You are beautiful and funny and smart. Thanks for sharing all of that with us over the years.
Nasya Carter Nah only people who haven’t been out to real, scratch kitchen restaurants “love” olive garden. Shit is one level above frozen marie calendar’s meals.
I dislike Olive Garden but my MIL insists on eating there. I ordered some sort of steak...it was thin and looked as if it went straight from the freezer to the flat top. It had congealed brown blood around it.Fettuccine is safe. Ill do that next time and not drom being basic. Its to save my stomach.
The stuffed chicken Marsala is always my fav, I wish it always looked that good though! Never that much sauce anymore. Fun fact...Olive Garden actually has some of their recipes available online. And included in those recipes, is the stuffed Chicken Marsala recipe. =) It has about a thousand ingredients, but it is so. damn. good.
I LOVE the Chicken and Gnocchi soup. It's freaking amazing. 9 times out of 10 I go there just to eat the soup and bread sticks. Of their actual meals I've only tried their basic ass spaghetti w/ marina sauce and their Chicken/Shrimp Carbonara dish. It's actually really good but it's also pricey.
Not true. Pasta is boiled, cooled in an ice bath, stored and re-heated in pasta boilers. The sauces are made fresh as well as the soups. True about the desserts though. 😅

my first time going to olive garden.. i didn't enjoy the breadsticks i thought they were to bland and smelt weird..almost like vinegar personally I prefer the bread sticks at little caesars.. but i mean oh well it is just bread 🤷 (p.s I LOVE THE sausages, meatballs, and chicken Alfredo sauce!)😋😊

"The breadsticks. They are unlimited and they are fluffy and they are amazing." Me: Yes. That"s bread. I'm french, every restaurant here have fluffy bread in unlimited use XD
@@panyietelka I think you get only the overcooked baguettes, because the only times I eat bread so hard I can barely chew it, it was when I eat dry bread ^^'
This was fun. Haven't been to Olive Garden in a few years. My go to dish (capellini pomodoro) was dropped from the menu so I moved OG to the back of the line.
Wow this advertisement WORKED. My fiancé and I decided to go to OG for lunch today, after 10 years of not going there, because of this video - which was a huge endorsement for the restaurant, well done. Well, this video majorly overplayed how good the food is. We both left very disappointed.... the food is not great and that’s me being polite. I feel like we just realized we got played lol. And their prices aren’t even cheap! Why spend money at Olive Garden when you can get a good pasta and a legit Italian restaurant for the same cost?
Liv Jaho haha!! Right! OG is always a disappoint and the price doesn’t make it easy either. Like I can literally go to a mom and pop restaurant in LA, pay the same or cheaper price and leave happier than going there. 🤮
I probably won’t be able to judge the food in Round 3 and 4 accurately anymore. 🤣😆 So glad you kept your sanity til the end to still be able to judge then rightfully. 😅 Hahaha So happy you didn’t pass out! 😊😊😊 Thank you for posting this. I see Olive Garden from the window of my hotel. That’s how I ended up watching your vid. This whole time I thought all they serve is all-you-can-eat soup and salad. 😅🤣 Thanks so much again!
I'm absolutely shocked she didn't order Stuffed Mushrooms!! That's the best appetizer. My favorite dishes are the Chicken & Shrimp Carbonarra, Shrimp Alfredo, and Create Your Own Pasta with Gluten Free Rotini, Creamy Pesto, & Shrimp. I'm a huge 🍤 shrimp lover.
Why is there always someone who has to say the same things everyone already knows? We know Olive Garden isn’t real Italian and we know Alfredo isn’t Italian. And we don’t care. 🤷♀️
🔥JULIA’S TOP OVERALL 3:🔥

spoiler alert its not fresh ...sauces arrive in bags ,ravioli is frozen ,pasta is boxed ,and desserts arrive pre made

"The breadsticks. They are unlimited and they are fluffy and they are amazing."
Me: Yes. That"s bread.
I'm french, every restaurant here have fluffy bread in unlimited use XD
huh ive been many times to different parts of france and only saw dried out pieces of baguette ... cant even bite them theyre so hard
@@panyietelka I think you get only the overcooked baguettes, because the only times I eat bread so hard I can barely chew it, it was when I eat dry bread ^^'
I would skip lunch and dinner, and go straight for the dessert! 😋 The Peach Bellini looked delicious, and I don't even drink!
So entertaining and hilarious!! Keep keeping it real!! 😂😂
This was fun. Haven't been to Olive Garden in a few years. My go to dish (capellini pomodoro) was dropped from the menu so I moved OG to the back of the line.
GREAT TRYING ALL THE MOST POPULAR ITEMS ATE OLIVE GARDEN !!!
No one:
Absolutely no one:
Me about to start my period: orders the entire Olive Garden menu
Your the best!!! Thanks.
BJ'S BREWHOUSE!!!!
YOU MUST GO TO THERE.
i work there i definitely support this suggestion lol
Wow this advertisement WORKED. My fiancé and I decided to go to OG for lunch today, after 10 years of not going there, because of this video - which was a huge endorsement for the restaurant, well done. Well, this video majorly overplayed how good the food is. We both left very disappointed.... the food is not great and that’s me being polite. I feel like we just realized we got played lol. And their prices aren’t even cheap! Why spend money at Olive Garden when you can get a good pasta and a legit Italian restaurant for the same cost?
Liv Jaho haha!! Right! OG is always a disappoint and the price doesn’t make it easy either. Like I can literally go to a mom and pop restaurant in LA, pay the same or cheaper price and leave happier than going there. 🤮
I knew it! I went to olive garden in 2016 and decided to never go back. This video was kinda tempting me to go back but your comment seals it.
I probably won’t be able to judge the food in Round 3 and 4 accurately anymore. 🤣😆 So glad you kept your sanity til the end to still be able to judge then rightfully. 😅 Hahaha So happy you didn’t pass out! 😊😊😊
Thank you for posting this. I see Olive Garden from the window of my hotel. That’s how I ended up watching your vid.
This whole time I thought all they serve is all-you-can-eat soup and salad. 😅🤣 Thanks so much again!
You definitely need to try the Chicken Scampi, Chocolate Almond Amore and Frozen Tiramisu!
"tried to make it and it tasted...scary" wow, my college-student-tryna-be-gourmet ass understands exactly what she means
"Oh I love this cup" about a standard margarita glass. Lol.
I'm absolutely shocked she didn't order Stuffed Mushrooms!! That's the best appetizer. My favorite dishes are the Chicken & Shrimp Carbonarra, Shrimp Alfredo, and Create Your Own Pasta with Gluten Free Rotini, Creamy Pesto, & Shrimp. I'm a huge 🍤 shrimp lover.
After many years, Olive Garden is still my favourite family restaurant.
I love Zuppa Tuscana soup. I make it all the time and find it tastes great with Sweet Italian Sausage. Try it, you will love it.
Italy just died. Not even ONE dish is like the italian one and in Italy “pasta Alfredo” doesn’t exist. 😭
Alfredo sauce is actually made in france and the original recipe is actually different than the one we see in america
Ani Ghazarian yeah it’s a butter sauce instead of a cream sauce I believe.
Who cares lol
Why is there always someone who has to say the same things everyone already knows? We know Olive Garden isn’t real Italian and we know Alfredo isn’t Italian. And we don’t care. 🤷♀️
I get so tired of seeing this comment. Like no one cares enjoy the food
