When Does Never-Ending Pasta Come Back To Olive Garden?

There’s a lot that’s iconic about Olive Garden, everyone’s favorite casual Italian eatery (well, most people’s favorite—I mean, very few of us can resist those breadsticks). But if I had to choose one thing to rave about when it comes to Olive Garden, it’s the restaurant’s famous Never-Ending Pasta event.

And I’ve got excellent news for anyone who loves digging into bowl after bowl of their favorite pasta, sauce, and protein combination. Never-Ending Pasta is coming back to Olive Garden, so you’re going to want to make a reservation to dine ASAP.

Never-Ending Pasta Returns To Olive Garden On August 31st

Yep, it’s time: you can head to Olive Garden and take advantage of the return of Never-Ending Pasta. 

This beloved promotion will run from Monday, August 31st through November 22nd, giving you an impressive 13 weeks to eat as much pasta as you can stomach. Your Never-Ending Pasta comes with unlimited soup or salad and those freshly-baked Olive Garden breadsticks, with prices starting at $14.99.

Oh, and this time around? There’s even more to love about the Never-Ending pasta promotion at Olive Garden. Two brand-new—and limited-time only—additions are part of the menu. You can opt to coat your favorite pasta in the new Spicy Alfredo Sauce and finish it off with Crispy Shrimp Fritta, the newest protein pick.

With these two additions, you’ll now be able to choose from up to 120 possible pasta combinations as you mix and match different pastas, sauces, and protein toppings for a totally customized plate (or multiple plates… I mean, the pasta is never-ending).

Here’s the complete list of customizable pasta options that you’ll find on the menu during Never-Ending Pasta:

• Pastas: Fettuccine, Spaghetti, Angel Hair, or Rigatoni
• Homemade Sauces: Spicy Alfredo, Alfredo, Meat Sauce, Five Cheese Marinara, Traditional Marinara, or Creamy Mushroom
