Olive Garden Italian - Paducah

I ordered the Stuffed Chicken Marsala, but it didn't come with garlic mashed potatoes, and it seems the chef forgot to add the sauce that was supposed to be on top.

I was really disappointed with my order last night. Given that OG isn't exactly budget-friendly, I expected better. I wish I could say the cheesecake was the worst part of my experience, but unfortunately, there were other issues as well.

We ordered the soup salad, and it was wonderful. The zuppa is a creamy soup with sausage and potatoes, and it's my favorite.

The salad wasn’t fresh. The service was quite poor; the waiter smiled, but that was about it. We were seated at a bar table, and the bread was hard as a rock. My seafood Alfredo was extremely buttery and really didn’t taste like much other than that. The waiter was not attentive, even though he had a clear view of our table. The spinach dip was good, but the pita bread was over-fried and stale. Many staff members were loitering in front of the building when we arrived and when we left. I’m not one to complain, but this was a disappointing experience. I wouldn’t return to this particular Olive Garden.

The food is excellent and served hot, and the tables, chairs, and floors are all very clean. The service is great and efficient. However, it would be nice if the music volume were lower.
