It’s been six years since Olive Garden last offered its Pasta Pass, but the unlimited pasta, soup or salad and breadstick pass is returning.
“After years of anticipation, we’re bringing back our iconic Never-Ending Pasta Pass — one of the most coveted dining experiences in casual dining,” the restaurant chain announced Monday. “For just $100, Pasta Passholders will enjoy more weeks of unlimited access to Never-Ending Pasta Bowl than ever before with 13 weeks of all-you-can-eat pasta, homemade sauces, proteins, soup or salad, and breadsticks.”
Orlando-based Olive Garden is making only 10,000 passes available this time. They will cost $100 and will go on sale at 2 p.m. EDT on Thursday at PastaPass.com.

The Pasta Pass is offered for unlimited dine-in visits to Olive Gardens in the U.S. starting on Aug. 24 and lasting for 13 weeks. The pass includes the never-ending first course of soup or salad and breadsticks and unlimited plates of Olive Garden’s Never-Ending Pasta Bowl creations. However, the pass cannon be used for to-go or delivery orders.
When previously offered, the Olive Garden Pasta Passes sold out in minutes.
The Never Ending Pasta Pass promotion was last held in 2019, when it also offered a special lifetime pass. When it was first introduced in 2014, it was offered to 24,000 customers.
