Olive Garden Family-Style Meals: Menu, Prices & Ordering
Plan a group order with family-size pans and bundles, then select a restaurant to confirm current packages, serving guidance and local prices.
Ways to order for a group
Use the selected restaurant's current menu for exact quantities and package contents.
Family-Size Pans
Choose a large-format pasta or entree and add sides separately where needed.
Complete Bundles
Bundles may combine entrees, salad and breadsticks for easier planning.
Soup & Salad Add-ons
Check quantities, dressing and serving guidance for the group size.
Desserts & Beverages
Availability, package size and local pricing differ by restaurant.
Pickup
Confirm preparation time and pickup instructions before the event.
Delivery
Delivery area, minimums, fees and timing are location-dependent.
Plan the final group order
Match quantities to the event rather than relying only on a package name.
- Select the restaurant, order type, date and pickup or delivery time.
- Check the displayed serving guidance for every pan or bundle.
- Add sides, beverages, desserts and serving supplies as needed.
- Review allergen needs, fees and the final checkout total before payment.
Before you order
Family meals, pans, bundles and prices
Compare bundles, family-size pans and extras by servings, variety and current local price.
Check a family meal as a full group order. The entrees, sides, breadsticks, drinks, desserts and serving tools will show whether the bundle is enough.
Use this page to plan your order. Pick your restaurant on the Olive Garden website before you buy because prices and menu choices can change.
What to check
Look at these details before you order:
- Bundled meals versus separate family-size pans
- Stated servings and the group's appetite
- Included sides, breadsticks and optional add-ons
- Pickup timing, transport and reheating needs
What can change
These details may be different by restaurant, date or order type:
- Bundle composition and restaurant participation
- Local pricing and limited-time offers
- Guest count and chosen variety
- Pickup, delivery and preparation timing
If the website is not clear, call the restaurant before you go.
How to check the details
Follow these steps before you visit or place an order:
- Pick the restaurant. Match the full street address.
- Choose the time. Set the date, time and order type.
- Match the item. Check the size, sides, sauce, drink and extras.
- Check the final details. Choose the serving restaurant, divide guests by entree preference and dietary need, then confirm portions, add-ons, pickup time and the complete official checkout total.
Common mistakes
Do not rely on an old photo, an old price or the menu from another restaurant.
- Using the maximum serving estimate for every group
- Forgetting dietary needs when selecting one shared entree
- Assuming catering service and family takeout include the same support
