About This Dish

Spaghetti at Olive Garden is a lunch-sized individual portion priced at $11.49, available weekdays from 11am to 3pm through the Lunch-Sized Favorites menu. The dish delivers 370 to 480 calories depending on sauce option — marinara comes in at 370 calories while meat sauce adds up to 480 — with 17 grams of fat and 790 milligrams of sodium. Both sauces are prepared fresh daily with garlic and herbs. At this calorie level, it is one of the most nutritionally light pasta options at any casual Italian-American dining restaurant.

The lunch-sized spaghetti is approximately two-thirds the portion of the full dinner version, sized deliberately for a midday meal rather than an evening entrée. Both the homemade marinara (vegetarian) and the beef-and-Italian-sausage meat sauce are available as topping choices. The sauce is made fresh every morning and replenished throughout the day rather than held from the previous service. At $11.49, it is the lowest-priced pasta plate on the Olive Garden menu and serves as the budget-friendly gateway for guests exploring the lunch menu.

The marinara version contains 370 calories and the meat sauce version contains 480 calories. Both have 17 grams of fat and 790 milligrams of sodium — making this the lowest-sodium pasta on the Olive Garden menu.

The spaghetti with marinara sauce is vegetarian and most likely vegan, as neither the pasta nor the marinara contains dairy or eggs in the standard preparation. Guests with strict dietary requirements should confirm with the specific location, as cross-contamination from shared cooking equipment is possible.
