Olive Garden Reintroduces Never-Ending Pasta Bowl Nationwide

Olive Garden’s Never-Ending Pasta Bowl is back for the fall, running through November 22 with unlimited pasta, soup or salad, and breadsticks starting at $14.99 at participating locations. The promotion adds two limited-time toppings this year: Spicy Alfredo Sauce and Crispy Shrimp Fritta, with optional extras like meatballs or Italian sausage for a small additional fee. In addition, Olive Garden has revived its Never-Ending Pasta Pass this year, priced at $100 and providing 13 weeks of unlimited dine-in pasta, soup or salad, and breadsticks, though only 10,000 passes were made available and are no longer for sale. The promotion is being supported by statements from Olive Garden executives highlighting the loyalty and value fans associate with the brand, and is part of a broader strategy to boost sales in the late-summer to holiday period. Across reports, the program emphasizes the sheer variety, noting more than 120 possible pasta, sauce, and topping combinations and the nostalgia surrounding the longstanding promotion.
