As Kyle’s catching that high-energy New York spirit while still on the Milano Cortina 2026 Winter Olympic Games in Italy, making this Italian feast feel even more timely as the world’s eyes are on the Alps. Because dining at the Times Square location adds a layer of “spectacle” to the meal.
The Appetizer: A Classic Start
-Fried Mozzarella [Fried mozzarella cheese with homemade marinara sauce]: You really can’t go wrong with golden-brown, crispy cheese. Paired with their signature homemade marinara, it’s the ultimate “warm-up” for an Italian feast. It’s crunchy, gooey, and sets exactly the right tone for the meal.
The Drink: A Tropical Twist
-Mango-Passion Fruit Iced Tea: This is a smart pick to cut through the richness of the cheese and pasta. The tropical sweetness of the mango and the tartness of the passion fruit provide a refreshing contrast to the savory dishes coming your way.
The Main Event: The Heavy Hitter
-OG Favorites, Tour of Italy [Chicken Parmigiana, Lasagna Classico and our signature Fettuccine Alfredo]: This is the “greatest hits” album of the Olive Garden menu. It’s perfect if you have a big appetite or simply can’t decide. You get:
•Chicken Parmigiana: For that essential breaded crunch and melted cheese.
•Lasagna Classico: Providing those deep, layered savory notes.
•Fettuccine Alfredo: The creamy, buttery finish that ties the whole plate together.
The Finale: A Sweet Sicilian Note
-Sicilian Cheesecake [Ricotta cheesecake with a shortbread cookie crust, topped with fresh strawberries]: Ending with ricotta-based cheesecake is a great move—it’s typically airier and slightly less dense than a traditional New York style. The shortbread crust adds a nice buttery crumble, and the fresh strawberries provide a bright, acidic pop to finish the night.
