Minimal wait time to be seated although that hasn’t always been the case. Attentive servers in the beginning and as it started to fill up (naturally) they became less attentive but still provided a good service. The food was great for those of us who knew what to order but if you’re not familiar with the menu or pasta you may end up ordering something you don’t like. Prices were reasonable, if you’re on a budget they have a lunch special from 12-3pm if I’m not mistaken, that has affordable options.

I am a symptomatic celiac and have been here about 3 or 4 times without issue. The staff always asked about food allergies and were educated on celiac so I didn’t have to have an awkward or frustrating conversation. Each time the manager came and introduced himself and briefly explained the protocol they would take. I absolutely loved and appreciated the awareness and reassurance and felt very comfortable. There is so much anxiety with eating out already. For other celiacs reading this, the gluten free rotini with either the meat sauce or regular marinara was great, they even took precautions with the salad. No issues. ❤️❤️❤️

We had the absolute best experience celebrating my mom’s birthday, and it was all thanks to our wonderful server Rogelio. From the moment we sat down, he made us feel so welcome and taken care of. He was attentive without being intrusive, made great recommendations, and ensured everything came out perfectly. It really made the celebration that much more special. He was a great server and we will definitely be back.

I was visiting El Centro and stopped here for dinner. I had an excellent experience. The staff accommodated my dietary restrictions with such warmth and concern. Everything was delicious with the exception of the broccoli, which was oversteamed/ dry.
I ended up going back the next evening for a dinner order in the pick-up area. They once again prepared a delicious meal and they even improved the way they made the broccoli.
I am so glad to know that if I’m ever visiting the area again, I have a clean, friendly and delicious restaurant I can go to.
Thank you! I wish I would have gotten names. Everyone was great!

I had a disgusting experience at the El Centro Olive Garden. I found a cockroach in my Alfredo pasta. When I brought this to the manager’s attention, he was incredibly dismissive and had a sassy attitude. He acted like it was an inconvenience to come to the table and completely brushed off a major health code violation. I will not be returning and have reported this location to both Darden Corporate and the Imperial County Health Department. Avoid this location!

Food is always good, this time salt was not enough. Hostess and waitress were were very friendly. We had the opportunity and tried a Bubbly Rose, too sweet for my taste, but very good flavor.
