  Would've been able to give 5 stars, but service was just okay :(

  Open a can, reheat commercially prepared food - this is NOT the Italian I remember from my years living in Italy - nor is it the American Italian that's actually homemade sauce, meatballs and sausage. NOTHING here is homemade, folks and if you think it's good - well....that's your opinion. It's frozen, canned, thrown together to be heated and served.
  The grease and salt on the breadsticks might be tasty but they are guaranteed to harden your arteries and make you drink like desert nomad - and they hope it's their wine/alcohol that you crave! Of course, there's salad - neverending - filler!!! And soup - filler!!! Makes up for the small portions.
  
  The false advertising about their chefs going to Italy - really?! Maybe a district manager would but not each and every OG chef.

  I'm only writing this because I saw this place get a five star review.  For Kokomo maybe this is the best Italian place in town.  Olive Garden is to Italian cuisine what AOL used to be for internet users.  It is there to give you a hint of what true Italian food is like.  If you're looking for good Italian food and you're hung up on going to a chain restaurant then I suggest you try some place like Carabbas.  Sure its expensive but you won't be disappointed.  And maybe, just maybe, you'll understand real italian food.  Better yet, take a trip to the east coast.  You'll find plenty of examples of what real Italian is like.  Disclosure:  I used to live in Federal Hill in Providence, RI.  Google it.  Any Italian place you try on the hill will show you what real Italian is.

  Hard to go wrong with Olive Garden, no matter what city they all taste great. The Olive Garden in Kokomo is great for large groups. Many times we have been out with large groups of friends and not been able to get into two or three different places. Everytime this happens we have called over to Olive Garden and they have been able to help us each time.
