Inflation may be driving up costs across the restaurant industry, but there’s one chain that’s holding the line. On Monday, Olive Garden announced the return of its popular Never Ending Pasta Bowl promotion, which kicks off on August 26. The best part? The deal still costs $13.99, the same price it was in 2022.
In recent years, many restaurants have faced significant price increases. For instance, the price of a McDonald's McDouble has increased by a shocking 168% in the past decade, according to reports. In February, Wendy's announced that they would begin testing dynamic pricing next year, similar to that of Uber's controversial surge pricing. Despite these trends, Olive Garden is maintaining its affordable offer.
As always, the promotion includes endless pasta, endless soup, endless salad, and, the real star of the show, endless breadsticks. For an extra $4.99 (the same as before), customers can add endless toppings to their pasta, with a whopping 80 different flavor combinations to choose from. Options include:
Pastas: Fettuccine, Spaghetti, Rigatoni, and Angel Hair
Sauces: Creamy Mushroom, Traditional Marinara (vegan), Five Cheese Marinara, Traditional Meat Sauce, and Alfredo
Toppings: Meatballs, Italian Sausage, and Crispy Chicken Fritta
The promotion runs through November 17, but if you’re an eClub member or follow Olive Garden on social media, you can get early access starting August 19. More information can be found on the Olive Garden website.
