The Five Cheese Ziti al Forno is a cheesy, baked delight! The pasta is coated in a rich tomato and cheese sauce, topped with a bubbly, golden layer of baked cheese. It’s hearty and satisfying! - Scottie Hane - Jan 30, 2025
I am a huge pasta fan, which is one of the reasons why the Olive Garden is a go-to favorite restaurant of mine. I love all the tasty pasta options, and I typically leave pretty happy about my meal. I wanted to test out a few of the Olive Garden pastas and really dig deep into analyzing each dish. I started with one of the menu classics- the Five Cheese Ziti al Forno- and here is what I thought. The Five Cheese Ziti al Forno at Olive Garden is a classic comfort food dish that really delivers a cozy meal. It is warm, cheesy, filling, and basically feels like grandma made you dinner. I ordered it expecting a classic baked ziti experience, and what I got was more like penne alla vodka meets ultra-cheesy lasagna minus the meat. Here is the breakdown of that simple analogy. The pasta is ziti (well, technically what I got was penne), tossed in a creamy five-cheese marinara sauce, then baked until the top gets that golden, bubbly finish. The cheese blend is the main focus here, and it really is no joke. There is mozzarella, Parmesan, Romano, ricotta, and Asiago that come together in a rich, gooey mix that truly is indulgent and satisfying. The mozzarella gives you those amazing cheese pulls, while the Parmesan and Romano add a salty, nutty punch. Ricotta makes it creamy and a little sweet, and the Asiago brings in a subtle sharpness that rounds everything out. But while the cheese blend is undeniably delicious, the flavor does start to feel one-note after a few bites. The sauce is rich, yes, but it leans heavily on the creamy side and could use a little more zip. I saw a sprinkle of parsley on top, but that didn’t add much in terms of flavor. I found myself asking: Where are the herbs? A little fresh basil or oregano would really elevate things. Another thing to note is that, like most Olive Garden dishes, the portion is huge. Like, this could easily be split into two meals, especially since it clocks in at 1,220 calories. So, if you are watching those calories or just like to eat leaner meals, this is something to keep in mind. The five cheese ziti al forno is vegetarian-friendly, which is great, but to me, it does feel like it’s missing something. There really is no protein at all (yes, I know cheese has some protein, but not tons), and I kept thinking how nice it would be with grilled chicken or even a little sausage to make it a more complete meal. And then there’s the saltiness. With five cheeses in play, it is no surprise that the sodium level is high, and about halfway through, I definitely needed some water. It is a little too salty to finish the whole plate without feeling weighed down. But, like I said before, this can definitely be turned into two full meals, so ask for that to-go box! I get why this dish has fans. It is comforting, satisfying, and cheesy in all the right ways. If you are craving an indulgent pasta night and love all things cheese, this will definitely hit the spot. It is not perfect, but it is a very solid choice. If I have to give this dish a rating, I would say it is 4 out of 5 stars. It loses points for the overly salty flavor, lack of herbs, high calories, and missing protein. But if you are in the mood for cheesy, cozy carbs (which I very often am!), the five cheese ziti al forno absolutely delivers. - Amanda - Jun 17, 2025
