About Olive Garden in Lexington
Horse Country's urban center gives both Lexington Olive Garden locations a market anchored by the University of Kentucky's 30,000-student campus, the Keeneland Race Course, and a healthcare sector that employs nearly a quarter of the region's workforce. The Helmsdale Place location at 3094 Helmsdale Pl holds a 4.5-star rating — unusually strong for any chain location — and serves the Palomar Centre and Fayette Mall retail corridor on the south side of the New Circle Road beltway. Nicholasville Road at 3385 Nicholasville Rd covers the Hamburg Pavilion corridor and south Lexington toward Jessamine County.
Keeneland's April and October race meets generate significant hospitality demand across the Lexington metro, as do UK basketball and football seasons at Rupp Arena and Kroger Field. Both locations serve the full Italian menu with unlimited Soup, Salad and Breadsticks.
Dining at Olive Garden in Lexington
Tour of Italy ($21.49) and Chicken Alfredo ($17.29) are the standout orders at the Helmsdale location — consistent with its unusually high 4.5-star reputation among Lexington diners who return specifically for those dishes. Soup, Salad and Breadsticks at $6.99 leads the lunch order count at both locations, especially among UK students and hospital shift workers on break.
Both locations run 11 AM to 10 PM Sun–Thu and until 11 PM Fri–Sat. UK game days at Rupp Arena and Kroger Field push metro-wide restaurant demand significantly — plan ahead on home game weekends. For hours, check the Olive Garden hours page.
Lexington Olive Garden locations cater Keeneland hospitality boxes, UK Alumni Association events, and family celebrations across Fayette and Jessamine counties. The Family-Style Lasagna Bundle serves 4 to 6 at $63.99 — use the catering order calculator to plan your order.
