Olive Garden Menu for Families: What to Order for 2, 4, or 6 People

Dining out as a family can get expensive quickly. Fortunately, Olive Garden was originally designed around family-style dining. With the right ordering strategy, you can feed a family of 4 or a group of 6 for significantly less than the cost of individual dinner entrees.

👨‍👩‍👧 Dining Strategy for a Family of 4 (Save 30%)

If you are ordering takeout for a family of 4, do not order 4 separate entrees. Instead, order a Family-Style Lasagna Bundle ($59.99) or a Family-Style Chicken Alfredo Bundle ($64.99).

Here is what the Family-Style Bundle includes:

  • A large pan of pasta that generously feeds 4 to 6 people.
  • A jumbo bowl of Famous House Salad with signature Italian dressing.
  • 12 freshly baked warm garlic breadsticks.

At approximately $60 total, that comes out to just $15 per person—compared to spending $85+ if ordering individual dinner plates!

👫 Smart Ordering for Couples (Table of 2)

When dining as a couple:

  • Order one large entrée to share, such as the Tour of Italy ($23.99).
  • Order one standalone Never-Ending Soup, Salad & Breadsticks ($12.99).

Both diners get endless salad, soup, and breadsticks, while sharing the generous trio of Chicken Parm, Lasagna, and Fettuccine Alfredo for under $37 total.

👨‍👩‍👧‍👦 Feeding Groups of 6 or More

For larger gatherings, office luncheons, or extended family birthdays, turn to the Catering Party Pans. An Extra-Large Lasagna Pan ($99.99) serves up to 12 people and can be paired with an add-on Jumbo Salad and Breadstick pack for less than $12 per guest.
