  • Olive Garden - Michigan

    Today is my daughter's birthday and she wanted to go to Olive Garden -Pasta, right?

    Well, I had the most delicious T-bone steak, tenderly grilled and topped with herbs. Usually they set a huge bowl of salad at the table (family-style) dripping with their own salad dressing. I asked the waiter to bring a plain salad and he was very accomodating. But that steak, yummmmm!

    Give it 5 stars!



    Just thought you'd like to know that Olive Garden serves the T-Bone and Pork chops. They also serve a shrimp appetizer. Everything else on the menu is carb city.

    Olive Garden

    I went to Olive Garden last week and had Grilled Swordfish Piccata. It was yummy. Also had grilled veggies with it.

        Olive Garden

        LOL! Well, I missed the pork chops...although I do know that in different parts of the country they have different specialty items on their menus. My husbands job had us moving all over the place and I ate at a lot of Olive Gardens. I am in Oregon now and I sure didn't see the pork chops. I didn't have the steak because I eat a lot of that at home. And my server said I could get the grilled veggies substituted if I wanted the steak. Here it comes with potatoes.

          Olive Garden

          In my first week of induction my daughter graduated from High School. After graduation she got to pick the restaurant we went to and chose Olive Garden. I ordered a grilled chicken with mixed vegetables pasta dish in an olive oil and garlic sauce. Since the pasta is always underneath everything else, I was able to eat the parts I was allowed and leave the pasta behind.

          I was also pleasantly surprised that I could watch everyone else eating the bread sticks and ordering dessert and not really missing it. Goes to show you what the right mindset can do for you.

              Hmmmm, was it cheating or not?


              I went to Olive Garden last week and had water with a lemon wedge, salad (I took out the crutons, etc that were no no's), and by passed the rolls, the menu had an awesome sausage and chicken skewers that normally have a demi-glace' on them but I asked for them to hold that and the potatoes and give me extra zucchini, peppers, and onions. There was quite a bit of protien so I wasl full after eating only half. It was my nieces b/day and I had a super small bite of her cake but saved my carbs for that so I am not sure if that was cheating or not! BUT overall I was proud of myself!!!!
