I much prefer dining in a quiet place rather than a busy noisy restaurant. There are some restaurants that have lost me as a patron because of the noise level; it ruins the experience for me.
We were in an Olive Garden once. They were featuring a "bottomless" bowl of Minestrone soup which my wife ordered. After her second bowl a snippy waiter said, "You have have enough soup, each of these bowls holds a quart of soup, and you have already had a half gallon, so no more soup for you." He was a soup Nazi. The bowls were flat bottomed and might have held a half pint. We have avoided Olive Garden ever since we were asked to leave for ordering too much soup.
There are only 6 Olive Garden Restaurants left in Canada. There used to be a lot more. The closest one to me in Canada is 2,082 km. If I want to travel to an other country the closest one is 176 km., in Niagara Falls, New York State. Just saying. ☆º°˚*☆ Have a ηice ϑay ☆º°˚*☆

Good choice. I love minestrone soup.
They have this chain here, but I've never been in there.
One of my favorites! I love those breadsticks.

My daughter loves to eat here. A great place for some mom/daughter conversation.

Looks really slow! Can't go wrong with the Olive Garden soup & salad combo.
Lovely take for the theme!
Soup and salad is a great meal, Lowell!
Reliable favorites.
I like all the wood inside. A nice place for lunch or dinner.
Beautiful and interesting place!
You had the place all to yourself!
There used to be Olive Garden here in Canada, but they packed up and went home. For some reason they were not a success.
Haven
t been there in a while----So noisy and almost too bustling.

Wholesome meals to start a day. The sunlight through the windows look comfortable.

Sounds good Lowell, there's nothing as nice as a bowl of soup.. except maybe two bowls of soup 😀😀
A beautiful place for lunch, I like minestrone too.
