Olive Garden Budget Meal Finder

Updated October 2026

How to Use the Budget Finder

Set the most you want to spend on one dish and the most calories you want, then pick a diet filter if you need one. Results are sorted from the most to the least expensive, so the first results get you the most food for your budget. Drinks and catering are left out.

Remember that dine-in entrées include unlimited soup or salad and breadsticks, so a $15 entrée is a full meal.
