Whenever I get the opportunity to dine at Olive Garden, I seize it. The endless salad and breadsticks paired with a delicious entree make for a magical experience. Typically, I order either chicken parmesan, the Tour of Italy (which includes lasagna, fettuccine alfredo, and chicken parmesan), or the classic spaghetti and meatballs.

They cook the pasta just right–al dente. The sauce they make leans towards sweet tomato flavor, and the most important for me is the size of the meatballs–it is generously sized, well-seasoned, and adds texture to the dish. This is what makes it perfect for me and for my family!

Say what you will about them, but their version is comforting. The sauce leans sweet, and the meatballs are smaller. But the consistency is what makes it special. It’s not fancy or artisanal, but when you’re craving something warm, cheesy, and familiar, it hits the spot.
