Dish: Chicken Alfredo
Price Range: $$
Rating: 7.5/10
Taste:
Olive Garden’s Chicken Alfredo combines a creamy, rich Alfredo sauce with tender grilled chicken. The sauce is smooth, featuring a blend of Parmesan and Romano cheeses that bring a mild saltiness, balanced by the slight nuttiness of the cheese. The chicken is seasoned lightly, which pairs well with the sauce without overpowering it.
Texture:
The pasta is al dente, providing a pleasant bite that complements the creamy sauce. The grilled chicken adds a contrasting texture, being slightly charred on the edges while tender and juicy inside, creating a satisfying mouthfeel in every bite.
Presentation:
Served in a deep dish with generous portions of creamy sauce coating the fettuccine, the dish looks comforting and inviting. The golden-brown chicken slices are laid on top, garnished with a sprinkle of parsley and a side of grated Parmesan, giving a rustic yet appetizing look.
Overall Experience:
A comforting and classic Italian-American dish, Olive Garden’s Chicken Alfredo is hearty and satisfying. The dish delivers on its promise of creamy richness, making it a popular choice for pasta lovers. While rich, it’s a bit heavy, and a touch more seasoning on the chicken would enhance the flavor further.
