The Never Ending Pasta Bowl Has Returned to Olive Garden - At a Historic Price

The tale began in 2013 when Olive Garden started its first Never Ending Pasta Bowl promotion for just $9.99. The good times rolled until 2022, when the popular promo was retired, leaving fans to clamor for its return. Now, the popular Italian restaurant chain is delivering.
The 2022 price is also returning, with the all-you-can-eat deal starting at just $13.99. The rising cost of restaurant dining has left many consumers reluctant to go out to eat, but offering endless pasta allows diners to stretch their budget and go out to eat more often .
