A Never-Ending Pasta story

Francisco Bustos, Writer • September 17, 2025

Olive Gardens never ending pasta event.

Olive Garden is bringing back its $13.99 Never Ending Pasta Bowl deal after its one-year hiatus and has people’s stomachs fuller than ever.

“I recently went to Olive Garden to try their new Never Ending Pasta deal to compare it to their Tour of Italy, which is my favorite item, since I can get a lot more food for a lower price, and I can confirm this deal filled me up really quickly, I only downed two bowels during my time there but I enjoyed it, “Junior Elijah Ordornez said.

Junior Marcos Contador explains he discovered the deal through TikTok, and since the deal made Olive Garden more accessible for his family, he plans to hop on the trend.

“I rarely go to Olive Garden anymore because it’s so expensive. My favorite dish, chicken parmesan, is really pricey, not including my family, but when I saw the deal on my TikTok feed, I was surprised $13.99 for all the pasta I can eat? No way, so I did more research and was shocked, so 100% I will be planning to go to the Olive Garden during the promotion,” Contador said.

“Since 2024 I have seen the never ending pasta deal on for you page every fall”, junior Aiden Matthews.

Olive garden gets people like junior Aiden Matthew talking about the Never-Ending pasta deal every year since it first started in 2022. With the rise of social media these tactics work better than ever, because of the amount of people sharing about meals and their experiences.

Some people would not keep up with restaurant promotions if it were not for social media. Junior Kristopher Lacombe is one of those people. He shares that he discovered olive garden was doing a the out about Never-Ending Pasta because of his Instagram feed.

“I do think social media has had an impact on promotions and deals. I’m going to be honest, if it wasn’t for my instagram feed, I would not even know about the Never-Ending Pasta Bowl deal; I don’t go out to eat like that all the time to see promotions. For example, I know Taco Bell is having a Y2K promotion, but I don’t go to Taco Bell at all,” Lacombe said.

This delicious deal has just started and will only be here until November 16,2025.
