Madonna! I hate those awful commercials. And the music, it went from somewhat real Italian, Neapolitan, and Sicilian sensations from the Mob Hits collection, to I don't even know what kind of stuff I heard there last time. I live in Connecticut and my Sicilian-born grandparents cannot stand this place! The only people in there are blacks, "Mirican's", or other people like me who cannot get enough of the salad, breadsticks, and chicken fingers. But, if I wanted REAL Italian food, I'd go to a local restaraunt.. that's what makes living in this part of the country, a truly AUTHENTIC Italian experience.

All 4 of my grandparents are from Sicily. I know goo authentic Italian cooking.

True, the Olive Garden ain't it, but I still go there occasionally, and I coud find so many more things to be upset about than silly commercials.

Who cares?

Personally, my husband and I enjoy the Olive Garden. What I have to point out about their "corporate culture" is their waitresses. Waitresses have a very hard job. Olive Garden's "corporate policy" is to have their female employees wear button-down collar shirts WITH A TIE. I think it is very inconsiderate to demand that a woman dress like a man just for an "image." I would wager that a man came up with this dress code -- I couldn't do this to another woman. In fact, next time I go there, I will tell them this.

Sure we are, we just won't eat there. Great shrimp scampi, in your dreams!

In Rochester, its 'Mario's Via Abruzzi'. The OG is for anglos and third or fourth generation Italo-Americans whose ancestors changed their last names.

I would rather eat at Olive Garden than in London.
Believe me, that isn't saying much.
