Olive Garden Soups Menu with Prices & Pictures 2026

Every single bowl of soup on the Olive Garden soups menu is made from scratch every morning by in-house chefs using fresh herbs, meats, and vegetables.

Zuppa Toscana – $8.79 | 220 Calories
Zuppa Toscana is Olive Garden’s number one fan favorite soup, a customer-favorite savory soup combining spicy Italian sausage, russet potatoes, and sliced kale in a rich cream broth. Olive Garden’s Zuppa Toscana is a hearty, comforting soup made with spicy Italian sausage, fresh kale, and tender potatoes in a creamy, flavorful broth. Served hot, this Tuscan-inspired soup is perfect as a starter or alongside Olive Garden’s famous breadsticks and salad.

What makes it stand out is the layered flavor that develops from browning the spicy sausage before adding the cream, a cooking step that infuses the broth with a depth that plain cream soups cannot replicate. The kale adds a slightly bitter green note that cuts through the richness without making the soup feel heavy. At 220 calories per bowl it is surprisingly reasonable for a cream-based soup this satisfying.

Chicken and Gnocchi – $8.79 | 230 Calories
A creamy soup made with roasted chicken, traditional Italian dumplings and spinach. Chicken and Gnocchi is creamy and soft. The handmade potato gnocchi dumplings are what elevate this beyond a standard chicken soup, their pillowy texture absorbs the creamy broth and creates a more substantial eating experience than most restaurant soups at this calorie level.

At 230 calories per bowl it is the second lightest cream-based option on the menu while delivering the most filling texture of any of the four soups. The roasted chicken provides genuine protein return rather than the minimal chicken pieces found in most restaurant soups. It includes chicken, spinach, potato gnocchi, celery, and a creamy broth.

Pasta e Fagioli – $8.79 | 150 Calories
White and red beans, ground beef, tomatoes and pasta in a savory broth. Pasta e Fagioli feels more filling than its 150 calorie count suggests because the combination of beans, ground beef, and pasta creates a density that cream-based soups achieve through fat rather than substance. This is genuinely one of the most calorie-efficient filling soups available at any sit-down restaurant.

The tomato-based broth is lighter than the cream soups which makes it the most refreshing of the four options, appropriate for customers who want something warming without the heaviness of a cream base. At 150 calories it is also the best choice for the unlimited soup refill format since multiple bowls stay manageable calorie-wise in a way that Chicken and Gnocchi or Zuppa Toscana refills do not.

Minestrone – $8.79 | 110 Calories (V)
Fresh vegetables, beans and pasta in a light tomato broth, a vegetarian classic. Minestrone is vegetarian, made with fresh vegetables, beans, and pasta in a tomato broth with no meat or dairy in the base.

At 110 calories the lightest soup on the menu by a meaningful margin, 40 calories less than the next lightest option. Minestrone feels lighter but the combination of zucchini, carrots, spinach, kidney beans, and shell pasta provides genuine nutritional substance that makes it more than just a broth. The most appropriate soup choice for vegetarians and the best option for calorie-conscious customers using the unlimited refill format to build a complete light meal.
