Similar to Red Lobster's 'Create Your Own Seafood Trio' promotion, Olive Garden is launching its own customizable menu called 'Create Your Own Tour of Italy.' In recent years, there has been a growing demand for more flexible menus and opportunities to create custom dishes. The new Olive Garden menu allows customers to personalize their meal by choosing three of their favorite dishes.
The Create Your Own Tour of Italy menu allows diners to choose three classic Olive Garden dishes from a curated menu for just $12.99. Diners must first choose a 'Specialty,' which includes options such as Eggplant Parmigiana and Lasagna Classico. Then they can choose at 'Premium Pasta' such as Cheese Ravioli or Tortellini Al Forno. Finally, diners can round out their meal with one of two 'Signature Pastas.' The Italian trio also comes with unlimited soup or salad and breadsticks just like an other Olive Garden meal.
