An Olive Garden is coming to my town!
Let the bashing commence.

(By the way, I'm on the side of "if you like the food, eat there, whether it's authentic or not". Personally, I adore the potatoes.)

2. what is an olive garden...aside from the restaurant. can a garden really be made from olives?
Or did they just choose a Mediterranean word with garden?
is there a pasta garden?
how about a Chianti garden?
lets go to the oregano garden.

on writing this I think you actually can just add garden to some word and make a restaurant out of it.
the garlic garden.
the pesto garden.

3. I like their Tuscan potato, sausage and kale soup.
I know that's not what it's called, but it's super tasty. Some DUer posted a recipe for it a while back, I recreated it and it tasted exactly the same. It's a great fall/winter soup.

5. I was thrilled when they built one on the south side of San Antonio
I don't care. I like the breadsticks and salad. I make my own pizza at home.

And yeah, I lived in Sicily for 1.5 years, so I know what good food tastes like, but still, its a place to relax with my sisters.

Do think their tortellini sucks. Don't even make it with cream sauce and proscuitto.

6. I have a pitbull named Olive
I'm thinking about making her middle name garden. My wife asked why I would do that and I said "because Olive Narwhal just doesn't sound right"

now she thinks I've lost it :rofl:
