"After my 4th meal here, breakfast and dinner, I can confidently say everything was great. The staff is friendly and I didn't have to circle the whole dining room to find a clean table. The fried zucchini is amazing! As long as my forearm and as the pieces are so thick, a zucchini is cut straight in length into 4ths lol, it does not end overcooked, and still has perfect texture. I don't know what oil they fry deep, but it doesn't exaggerate the taste of vegetables, wow. The part-corner brush has a perfect crunch and does not sweat. The frits are also perfectly cooked. The shakes taste like real, creamy, ice cream cream. , and are thoroughly mixed uniformly on a consistent texture. Great. Breakfast was great, with plenty of portions and eggs that were not overcooked. The chicken was not in stock when I tried to order the spicy chicken sandwich, but the burgers are very good. I found that the sauces are not always evenly distributed, twice I had a half dry sandwich until I found the stack of a thousand island. That's a bummer. I also found the avocado too old to be too old for my taste, and knew it from my burger after I had paid extra for it. I love ALL being padded in the dining room. The tables are generously spaced, so there is enough space to walk around without having contact with other mosquitoes. The bathroom was saved and clean every time I used it, even the hand soap smells beautiful whaaat?! A miracle! The parking lot is in rough shape as most of El Centro and parking spaces can be difficult when they are busy, especially because they guide the passage line through parking. I'm not from here and I don't know these restaurant chains. I'm elated, I've learned to never mess with rally again, which is a miserable waste when Farmer Boys is an option!"

"I had two very nice dinners here, partly because the service was so warm and friendly. During the second visit, I was a little surprised to find a bartender who didn't know how to do a martini... and made me dirty what was good, but not what I ordered. (Aktuary, it was pretty good, and I told her so. Bands were good. The steak was decent, but not to the same level."

"Okay so I’ve always like this Olive Garden because most of the time they have friendly service but my last visit there which was 2 weeks ago was not the best. First it was a Sunday and yes it’s always packed and crowded with a wait time of at least half an hour. Once we got our booth everything was good but the first server that we got was a little rude (thank goodness she had to leave) and then our second server was a little nicer. The thing that bothered me the most is that I had the stroller next to our booth and servers kept handing plates and everything across the stroller (my 3 month old was in there asleep) instead of on the side. Like is it obvious that you are not supposed to pass HOT plates across a baby on a stroller and there was space on the side, what if something would’ve fell on the baby?! only one server that wasn’t our server that did give us our plate through the side. Also our server kept hitting the stroller (accidentally) when giving us our plate.Now regarding the food, it was good, just like any other Olive Garden but don’t expect the service to be fast because it is not.And another reason for my 3 stars is that the restrooms were disgusting, very dirty."

"Excellent customer service! I was having an issue with the Subway app. I went there in person and was able to get everything taken care of with friendly and patient service. Also tried a new footlong I've never had before... the Subway Melt! One of the best I've ever had! Highly recommend."
