      It's a really great tasting and simple dressing, but it's not the Olive Garden Dressing I know (in Winnipeg). I've been looking for this copycat recipe for a while, and am led to believe Olive Garden doesn't use mayo in their dressing. I'm going to try Tonkats' version of this next.

      Very easy and delicious. It's the first time I've seen my kids finish their entire salad. I added the sugar because it was a bit too bitter without. We cooked the crab fettucini with this and bread sticks. We felt spoiled!

      It's really nothing like Olive Garden's dressing, but still excellent. I have made several times and everyone loves it. I only made a few changes, less vinegar and lemon juice, no corn syrup, and a sprinkle of sugar. Oh, and it's best to leave in the fridge for at least an hour to let the flavors meld. Thank you so much!! :)

      This is a great salad dressing. Definitely what one would expect from a restaurant.

      This was good enough for me to stop spending money on the real OG dressing. I added some suger. Very tasty. It passed the Kid test! I will make this forever!

      Super! When I first tried it, I didn't think it tasted like Olive Garden, but after I put it in the refrigerator, I changed my mind. I could eat my weight in this!

      Yum. I made it and kept it in the refrigerator and it just got better. I don't usually like a lot of dressing on my salad but I liked a lot of this on my salad. I love Olive Garden Salad. I don't particularly like their food, just their salad.

      The reason for only four stars is because it claims to be Olive Garden dressing, when my family and I did not agree! As far as flavor and ease of preparing it is a five star recipe for sure! We love this dressing, and have made it several times already! Thanks for a great go to recipe!!

      I just whipped up a batch of this on my lunch hour (one of the perks for living close to work). I dont' have the cheeses in yet but it is still super delicious. I cannot wait to let it chill for a bit then use it on my salad this evening for dinner! Yum!

      HORRIBLE!!!!!This recipe is horrible, wasted to much time and money on the ingredients and it tasted like nothing. Tried upping the ingredients to give more flavor, let it sit in the fridge for a while and that didnt help. we ended up using our bottled dressing anyway. I expected it not to taste exactly like the olive garden but not only didn't it but it had basically no taste at all.

      absolutely delish - loveloveloved it! i did add an extra tablespoon of corn syrup and i omitted the lemon juice (out of lemons), and i used all grated parm instead of the romano. i used garlic powder instead of garlic salt (what i had on hand), and i was probably a little generous with that. this dressing made me eat an entire huge plate of salad and then i was sad when all the salad was gone! i will be using this dressing all the time. thank you so very much for posting!

      This had WAY too much vinegar, I did not like it at all, even after I added sugar. I might try doubling all the ingredients to the mixture I have already made except the vinegar and see how that does. No one in my family enjoyed this.

      YUM!!! This is really a delicious recipe. I used 2 packets of splenda instead of corn syrup but otherwise followed the directions. I have made this twice now with everyone loving it! It started out a bit thin but I put it in the fridge for 30 minutes and it thickened right up! This will be a regular for our family!

      I love a tart dressing, and as far as creamy mayo dressings go, this is among the best. No blandness in here! I did add salt and was generous with other seasonings, as well.

      I made this for dinner tonight to go on a salad along with our spaghetti. My picky husband loved it. All of us loved it and I'll be putting this one in my permanent recipe file. I made one change. instead of garlic salt, I used a clove of garlic. I put everything in the food processor then let it chill for a few hours before serving it.
