I visited post lunchtime, and was immediately seated in a booth near the bar area. The restaurant was very quiet at this time of day but there were several tables occupied with diners. It was a good 10+ minutes before anyone came and asked if I wanted something to drink. My friend soon arrived and it was also quite a wait for our order to be taken. At this point, still did not get my tea. Next was a long wait for food, easily 20+ minutes. We ordered Endless Soup, Salad, & Bread sticks, which should have been fast fare. When the food finally arrived, there were no bread sticks. Had to ask the busperson halfway through the meal (only person who was nearby). Soup and bread were both lukewarm.
Other than the slowness of getting our food and the mediocre food quality, I would like to commend the wait staff for the friendly attitude and desire to please. Overall, I don't know where the hold up was, but it definitely impacted any future desire on my part to return.

“We had an excellent experience today at the Olive Garden in Bowie. The service was outstanding—our server was attentive, friendly, and made sure we had everything we needed. The food was delicious, perfectly cooked, and served promptly. The atmosphere was warm and welcoming, with a cozy and relaxing environment. We truly enjoyed our meal and will definitely be coming back!”

went here this afternoon 1:30-til 5:30pm to celebrate my aunts surprise birthday. Everybody showed up she was so surprised and a lot of happy tears every few minutes since everyone's been busy and she's in a nursing facility. Our waitresses were great Hannah & Cassie they executed the entire party well , on down to the packing up and To-Gos! Request. The Team sung happy birthday , a random lady even got up from her table to say happy birthday and join in on the song dedication lol. I got the New Steak Gorgonzola Alfredo which was very good ! , the steak was very tender, apparently my other two aunt's and cousin followed suit and got the same!. My cousin crushed his and now texting me he's hooked and was it seasonal or nah lol. Everyone else got the regular Alfredo's, My 5 yr old niece passed out her cupcakes it was just a great time and happy joyous celebration!!... Thank You sooo super much for Everything and taking great care of our table Hannah & Cassie your customer service was very kind genuine and accommodating.

Took my son to this location for his birthday. He loves Olive Garden! They were so sweet to sing to him and give him a dessert. Our server was very nice and funny ☺️

Everything was good until the end. The waitress charge us for an additional 6 drinks. When we each paid for our portions separately, there were still 6 drinks left. She said, "I don't want to argue, so I'll ask my manager to take them off". That statement made it seem as if we were lying even after showing her the paid receipts. That was very disrespectful! We were only 11 people being charged for 17 refillable drinks... unacceptable service!
