My review of the Buy One Get One Meal:
I can't express how much I love and enjoy dining at Olive Garden! My kids, sister, and I had dinner using the gift card I received for this review. The Buy One Get One deal is what I'm writing the review about. You can get this meal for only $12.99! You get one salad or soup, breadsticks, and your choice of pasta, and one pasta to take home with you. How awesome is that? I love this meal deal and will be getting it a lot more often. If you haven't tried their 5 cheese ziti pasta, you will have to sometime. It's amazing and is cooked just perfect. I have always loved ziti, but they make it a lot better than I ever could.

What I got for my meal to share with my kids:
- 5 Cheese Ziti Pasta
- Breadsticks
- Chicken Gnocchi soup
- Dr Pepper

My sister got for her meal:
- 5 Cheese Ziti Pasta
- Breadsticks
- Chicken Gnocchi soup
- Soda

Olive Garden - Never Ending Pasta Bowl - $9.99

Aug 16, 2013

*Disclaimer - I received a gift card from Olive Garden in order to facilitate this review for my readers. All opinions in this post are 100% honest and from myself and my sister.

Above is the menu for the $9.99 special of the Never Ending Pasta Bowl at Olive Garden. Yes, you heard that right; you can get more once you're done for NO extra cost for dinner.

As everyone knows, Olive Garden is well known for the awesome garlic breadsticks that they offer with any meal. These are some great garlic breadsticks, and I LOVE them!

Both my sister and I decided to go with the awesome Chicken Gnocchi soup! This is the best soup I've had and I get it every time I go to Olive Garden for dinner. I highly recommend it.

The next and final portion of dinner is the amazing pastas! I decided to get the Penne with 3 Cheese Marinara, and let me tell you it's a GREAT choice of pasta. My sister decided to get the Corkscrew Pasta with Asaigo Garlic Alfredo. She said it tasted awesome and will get it again when she comes back to Olive Garden for dinner.
