When we went to orlando the first time we were looking for restaurents. We found the Olive Garden. Its just like a Frankie & Bennys here. The only thing is if they offer you Garlic Rolls make sure you dont eat them all before your main course! as we did and could barely finish our main meal!!!
Here is a link to quite a good website for it ..

Olive Garden is one of our favourites too - we eat there every time we visit the States.
Bizarrely, despite being a pizza/pasta fan I'm not sure I'd been to one in 10 visits to Orlando. I did go on the last trip though and enjoyed it. As you say the 'free' (it's not free really, of course) rolls and salad were pretty decent considering.
I have no idea what I ate after that, but I recall thinking I would return.

We LOVE the Olive Garden on I Drive, in fact, it is my fave of all the places Ive eaten in Florida, I can never get over how cheap it is - $10 got me garlic rolls, huge salad and a HUGE make-your-own pizza, what more could you need? :-)

It's my youngest DS's favourite restaurant over there.
I'm not generally a salad fan but I love their house salad.

We had a lovely meal in The Olive Garden, the lasagne was gorgeous!
The kids had meals from the Childrens menu and they enjoyed them chicken nuggets, pizza, etc, with ice-cream for dessert of course!

We love the Olive Garden and can't believe how reasonable it is for five of us to vastly overeat!!

:tounge:OH I can taste those garlick rolls:thumbs-up
We went last time. I wouldnt say it is like Frankie and Benny's as they do not cook much of their food from fresh (in fact we hate F&B's). We found the tomato sauce superb. It was made from fresh tomatoes with chopped black olives right through it. The soup was gorgeous too.
My chicken marsala wasnt very exciting at all. Overall it was very good value but we will leave it out this time as we have too many other restaurants to try! :smile:
