About This Dish

Soup, Salad and Breadsticks at lunch at Olive Garden is the weekday version of the restaurant's most iconic combination, priced at $10.49 and available Monday through Friday from 11am to 2:30pm. It includes the famous house salad with house Italian dressing, your choice from the four daily homemade soups, and warm garlic breadsticks — all unlimited for dine-in guests. Calorie totals range from 400 to 520 for the base serving. After 2:30pm, the same combination is available through the dinner menu under Soup, Salad and Breadsticks at a slightly higher price of $12.99.

The practical difference between the lunch and dinner versions is purely price and time window. Both include unlimited service, the same soup selection, the same house salad preparation, and the same breadsticks baked to order. For guests who visit regularly and want the full unlimited service at the lowest available price, the lunch window Monday through Friday is the optimal time to visit. The combination remains the single best value at Olive Garden for budget-conscious guests.
