price wise and I’m fairly certain the food would be better than OG:

Osteria Amore

Osteria Amore - Italian Restaurant Salt Lake City Utah (SLC)

Osteria Amore - Modern Italian restaurant in Salt Lake City, Utah (SLC)

If you venture outside of Italian, Bombay House is little, if at all, more expensive and outstanding.

Not bad if you like food that is 80% salt

Good. Not great.

Depending on how hungry I am at the time, sometimes it's great. But mostly good.

It’s hard to really screw up pasta. It’s consistently not bad

Poor considering opportunity cost. The same money can buy much better food most

Same money can buy much better food where? I'm serious. I'd like to know some

Any $$ place on Yelp with 4 stars or more.

So you've got nothing to recommend then? Your opinion is hardly valid then.

Last time I was at OG, I was amazed at the prices. Seemed like it was all $15

Not bad is a great description. It is what it is, which is chain style, mass reproduced italian food.

If it is close and you have few other close options, it works.

Italy is the 2nd best place to get authentic Italian food, behind Olive Garden

I feel like they used to be better

The salad and dressing is the same. The bread used to be locally baked, but now they ship it in frozen.

Macaroni Grill's bread is better.

As with any restaurant it's only as good as it's chefs. Great chef = great food.

Olive Garden doesn't have "chefs." It has microwave attendants.

I haven't eaten there in at least a couple years, but I like pasta and garlic so it's not bad for me.

I only get their spaghetti and breadsticks. I think they’re decent enough
