Were all looking for value when dining out these days, and deals feel increasingly hard to come by. But no chain restaurants promotion is quite as beloved as Olive Garden’s Never Ending Pasta Bowl. It’s as hearty a meal as your stomach will allow, and it’s back starting August 25 and running through November 16. This news is also exciting because, at a time when groceries are growing more expensive, the price of the deal will stay the same as it has been since 2022. For $13.99, you can start with unlimited soup or salad and breadsticks, then move on to unlimited pasta. The more you eat, the more you save — thats math everyone can get behind.

And there’s more: This year, a new sauce is joining the lineup. The Spicy Three-Meat Sauce, introduced earlier this summer, is great for those of us who love heat. It’s made with chili flakes, cherry peppers, red bell pepper, pepperoni, red wine, garlic and herbs.

In all, there are close to 100 possible combinations when building your pasta bowls, with a choice of four pasta varieties (Fettuccine, Spaghetti, Angel Hair, Rigatoni), and six sauce options (Spicy Three-Meat Sauce, Alfredo, Meat Sauce, Five Cheese Marinara, Traditional Marinara and Creamy Mushroom). You can also add toppings such as Crispy Chicken Fritta, Meatballs or Italian Sausage for $5 more.

If you are so excited for the Never Ending Pasta Bowl that you just can't wait until August 25, you may want to join Olive Garden’s eClub, as its members will get early access to the deal, starting Monday, August 18.
