Amazing New Years!

Udychicka2020-01-21

We did not know what to expect, and I can tell you the venue was fantastic, every seat was excellent & the entire restaurant was able to go outside and actually watch the ball drop!!! They did not oversell the place and they had it decorated, great DJ and the entire staff was having fun, including the GM, so it did not feel like NYE was a chore. I was really impressed, and this was my first visit to an Olive Garden, it’s a must do - no hassle and your in the heart of everything without the crowds!!
