I’m Italian with a great background of home made Italian food. Always loved Olive Garden. A few years ago I felt almost all the sauces became glop. I haven’t gone back since their efforts to improve it.
Carrabas can be terrific but my local one may have fallen off lately.
In restaurant business you’re only as good as your last meal.
Oh I didn’t mean to say Olive Garden was comparable to homemade, just that I liked it anyway. Carrabas is closer to the real thing.
