Olive Garden Partners with Uber for Nationwide Delivery

Darden Restaurants announces exclusive multi-year deal to expand delivery service to all Olive Garden locations by May 2025.

Darden Restaurants, Olive Garden's parent company, has entered a multi-year partnership with Uber to offer delivery services.
The delivery service will initially be piloted at select locations later this year, with plans for a national rollout by May 2025.
This partnership marks a shift for Darden, which previously resisted third-party delivery services for individual orders.
Shares of Darden Restaurants surged by over 7% following the announcement, despite weaker-than-expected first-quarter earnings.
Customers will be able to place delivery orders through Olive Garden's app and website, with Uber handling the delivery logistics.
