Day 1, served by Patricia. I enter the Olive Garden and mention table for 1 using the Pasta Pass.
The restaurant is almost fully empty as I enter at noon. The employee at the front asks if I would like to sit at the bar. I say it doesn't matter and she points me to the bar. Turns out it's mostly pasta pass people at the bar... I don't know if that's concincidence to prevent us from taking up table space, as servers are limited to 3 tables I believe.

12:01pm - I enter the restaurant and get seated immediately

12:21pm - my order finally gets taken... 20 minutes after I sit

12:37pm - my order arrives but one of the dishes is wrong

12:57pm - I ask for the bill and hand over my pasta pass

1:07pm or later - I finally get the bill

Points of contention were that it took 20 minutes for my order to be taken, and that it took 10+ minutes to get my bill. I understand that this is the first day of the pasta pass, but still... if I was in a big rush, I would not be happy about this.
When I told the employee I'd be using the Olive Garden Pasta Pass, the employee didn't know how it worked and said she'd need to ask her manager first. That was part of the 20 minute delay before she finally took my order.
I ordered a Whole Wheat Linguine with grilled chicken and meat sauce, and then 2 refills of garden veggies topping and grilled chicken topping. While official OG policy is refill orders can be ordered once the prior order hits the table, I told the employee that I'm okay with all the refills hitting at once to save her the walk. I try to be as nice as I can.
The garden veggie refill came out okay, but the grilled chicken refill turned out to be another pasta with meat sauce? I tell the employee that that isn't what I ordered and she said "that's what the kitchen provided"... I told her I can get a refill of just chicken, and she said she'll fix it. She eventually returned with the right order.

Day 1 dinner, served by Alex. I enter the Olive Garden and mention table for 1 using the Pasta Pass. The host again asks me if I mind sitting at the bar, mentioning it's full service. I don't know if that's because I'm one person or because I'm using pasta pass.

8:13pm - I enter the restaurant and get seated immediately

8:16pm - my order gets taken

8:22pm - salad arrives

8:39pm - rest of food arrives

Note that I don't put all timelines into the above, just the notable ones.
I choose salad for the side. I order a repeat of what I had for lunch, which is whole grain linguine with grilled chicken topping and meat sauce. I again mix in a refill order of grilled chicken and garden veggies.
My last refill, whole grain linguine with creamy mushroom sauce and grilled chicken topping, I take to go. It'll be my lunch on Wednesday :)

Fairly light meal today in comparison. Served by Anthony. Seems like a friendly guy but doens't know about the pasta pass. I explained the concept to him and he subsequently asked his manager about it, but I had to show him email from corproate saying topping only orders were allowed before I could get it. I'm in it for the cheap food, so I don't expect good/exceptional service... as long as the food arrives it's all good.

Soup: Minestrone X1

Main order: Grilled chicken

Refills: 1X veggies, 1X grilled chicken, 1X whole grain linguine, 1X alfredo sauce

After eating a ton of food yesterday, I figured I'd go easy for lunch and maybe try for a bigger dinner.

Wow, from getting seated it took 13 minutes for waiter to drop by and 19 minutes for water to be served. And I don't know his name... he didn't have a nametag, and when I asked about that, he just said it fell off without offering his name. Once he did arrive he was friendly enough tho.
Timeline:

8:30pm - seated

8:43pm - waiter came by and I ordered

8:49pm - water and salad arrived

9:07pm - rest of food arrives

It was a bit of a wait, but that's okay... next time I'll just bring my laptop and do some work.
Orders:

Salad with dressing, X1

Main order: Whole Grain Linguine, Meat Sauce, Shrimp Fritta

Refills: 1X veggies, 2X grilled chicken, 1X whole grain linguine, 1X meat sauce

Extras: 4 garlic bread that I took home... I'll count these calories after I eat it!

Update: 2 garlic bread eaten! They brought all 4 at once without my asking and I dind't want it to go to waste.
Wow the breadsticks were 280 calories (not bad), 50g carbs (1/3rd of my dinner carbs!) and a whopping 50g of fat! That's more than half my total fat from the dinner!

Wow tonight was some drama... the bartender was having an allergic reaction so she was out of service... and other waiters weren't happy. "My 4 top just got their food and no drinks, what the heck is going on" said one waiter.
But secondly, the waiter at the bar, McCarty, insisted I order one refill at a time. Which is the rule and I'm okay following it... but their staff are slammed by being short handed, and McCarty isn't doing them any favors by having them run 6 orders when it could have been 2.
Lunch was leftovers from yesterday which I counted already.
Orders:

Salad with dressing, X2

Main order: Whole Grain Linguine, Meat Sauce, Shrimp Fritta

Refills: 2X veggies, 3X grilled chicken, 1X whole grain linguine, 1X meat sauce

The staff are starting to recognize me now... I guess they realize I'll come every day.
Orders:

Minestrone soup 1X

Main order: Whole Grain Linguine, Meat Sauce, Grilled Chicken

Refills: 1X veggies, 2X grilled chicken, 1X shrimp fritta

Quick dinner, in and out... I ended up trying the breadsticks!
Orders:

Minestrone soup 1X

Bread Sticks 2X

Main order: Whole Grain Linguine, Creamy Mushroom Sauce, Shrimp

Refills: 2X grilled chicken

Quick lunch at a new location. NYC Times Square is a HUGE place, but probably the worst location. Not only are the items more expensive than other stores, but they're very tricky with the tipping as well. Instead of having a bill total, where you write in the optional tip and grand total, this Olive Garden instead puts their suggested tip before the total. Which means the total, along with "Please pay this amount", already has a 18% tip baked in. That's total bullocks.
Orders:

Salad with dressing 1X

Main order: Whole Grain Linguine, Meat Sauce, Chicken

Refills: 1X grilled chicken, 1X veggies

I guess I'm a sucker for punishment. I went back to the same Olive Garden location. Yes, the same one I said was scammy and devious in their attempts to get customers to tip them. Except now that it's during dinner time on a weekend, not only do I have to deal with that but I also have to deal with a 30+ minute wait. As in, 35 minutes and still waiting with no end in sight.
I finally got seated! I ended up waiting around 1 hour and 10 minutes... after I went and asked about it, the staff member said they had a glitch in the system where my place in line was removed. No apology or anything, but at least I got seated right after asking.
Orders:

Salad with dressing on side 1X

Main order: Whole Grain Linguine, Meat Sauce, Chicken

Refills: 1X grilled chicken, 1X veggies

The server today was actually a cut above most other servers I've seen. She was friendly, clarified my orders, and helped the table beside me with tourist directions. I was pleasantly surprised.

Refills: 1X grilled chicken, 1X shrimp, 1X veggies

Orders:

Soups: Minestrone 1X, Zuppa Toscana 1X
