Good to know
Olive Garden's FAQ (https://www.olivegarden.com/faqs, undated, read Oct. 9, 2026) says restaurants close on Thanksgiving Day and Christmas Day, may close early on the day before those holidays at the managers' discretion, and serve the dinner menu all day on Saturdays, Sundays and holidays. Holiday hours may differ in Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Guam and outside the U.S. FOX Television Stations also listed Olive Garden as closed on Thanksgiving 2025 and Christmas Day 2025. The Memorial Day entry rests on the FAQ's closure list, not on a Memorial Day report. New Year's Eve 2023 and 2025, New Year's Day 2024 and Easter 2024 come from CBS News (https://www.cbsnews.com/news/whats-open-on-new-years-eve-2024/, https://www.cbsnews.com/news/whats-open-closed-new-years-eve-2025/, https://www.cbsnews.com/news/whats-open-on-new-years-day-2024/, https://www.cbsnews.com/news/open-closed-easter-sunday-2024/).
