Edit - I'm now reading the fine print - and apparently the $12 only entitles you to unlimited spaghetti & rigatoni. Everything else costs an additional price. Fuck that.
They were never good. You just got more discerning with age.fuck Olive Garden. They used to be ok, but that was like 20 years ago...
right now they're the Chili's of italian food.
Yeah it's just a situation where they bring a full bowl and then each subsequent bowl you order is smaller (same with their bread sticks they bring you less as time goes on). It's nice that apparently you can take any unfinished pasta home but it's also crappy food.
at one point they were a medium tier chain Italian place. Not on the same level as a real italian place or any type, or even a higher level Italian chain like a Maggiano's . But they were passable. You could get okay pasta. An entire +14oz steak selection. This was around 1995 to 2005 I guess. My last trip there was this year and it might be my last visit.
Well they're owned by a huge corporate conglomerate, so they expect growth and profits. They're always messing around with cutting corners and trying new things to get people to eat there. So that would explain it. They've had big leadership changes too. When MBAs get into the restaurant business, this is what you get.at one point they were a medium tier chain Italian place.

what is this now?
I mean, they're not amazing, but c'mon fam.Well think of it this way, a box of Kraft Dinner\Mac and Cheese is a better Italian meal then Olive Garden.

the world is a very big place and I've seen it used both ways with no questions. So yeah when did it become more than a regional dialectical choice?
well just like the lawyer boom of the 70s-80s we got the mba boom of the 90s 00s, and yeah everything improved big time.Well they're owned by a huge corporate conglomerate, so they expect growth and profits.

Not about being too fancy. But you can spend your money at better options.I've never eaten at Olive Garden but when did we all agree we were too boujee to eat at Olive Garden? Did I miss that meeting? Or was I just not invited?

when did they start doing this? I might go to a golden corral again. I mean you laugh but all you can eat steak cooked over flame on a grill is still flame grilled steak.Just head to the Golden Corral. Big variety of unlimited food and for an extra 99 cents you get a take out container full.
I don't know if you think you and your family invented y'all or something, but you didn't.lol, they letting you use y'all in schools now? wow, and one is accepted over the other in the spell check. thats amazing. I'm officially old now. I noticed something legitimately transitional.
ya'll is how we spelled it, and it was a colloquialism, so the rules were social ones not ones of english grammar.
lmao, me and my family? you're a scream, dream machine.I don't know if you think you and your family invented y'all or something, but you didn't.
I didn't know which "we" you were speaking for (and still don't) so I took a guess at who you would have learned that spelling from. The implication was that this isn't a new spelling, so your comments about being old and seeing a paradigm shift in language don't really make sense.lmao, me and my family? you're a scream, dream machine.
unfortunate that the heritable nature of the world doesn't convey knowledge or manners.
