Olive Garden Coming Soon To South Coast Plaza In Corpus Christi
Rezul News/10710626
Cravey Real Estate's Lynann Pinkham Secures Ground Lease for Nation's Top Italian Dining Brand
CORPUS CHRISTI, Texas - Rezul -- Olive Garden is doubling down on the Coastal Bend because when you're here, you're family—and business is booming. Cravey Real Estate Services, Inc. is proud to announce that Olive Garden, America's leading brand in Italian dining, is officially expanding in the Coastal Bend with an all-new location at South Coast Plaza, thanks to a ground lease secured by Cravey's own Lynann Pinkham.
The new 7,825 square foot restaurant will rise on the site of the former Johnny Carino's at 1625 S. Padre Island Drive, which closed in early 2024. The existing structure will be demolished to make way for Olive Garden's sleek, modern prototype. This high-profile deal marks a strategic growth move for the brand and a major win for the Corpus Christi community.

"This isn't just another restaurant deal. Olive Garden's expansion is a signal of confidence in the local economy and in the long term strength of South Coast Plaza," said Lynann Pinkham, who represented the landlord, South Coast Plaza, LLC. "The performance of their original location in Corpus Christi is off the charts, and this new restaurant will help meet local demand. It's a thrill to help bring this beloved brand to a new part of the city."
And that demand is real. Olive Garden's first Corpus Christi location, just a few miles down SPID, has been the #1 highest-performing Olive Garden in all of Texas according to data from Placer.ai. With more than 575,000 annual visits, the original restaurant outpaces every other Olive Garden in the state. The addition of a second location not only relieves pressure on the flagship store, but also creates new jobs, supports local contractors and suppliers during construction, and draws fresh energy to the SPID corridor.

Olive Garden is a cornerstone of Darden Restaurants, Inc., one of the largest full-service restaurant companies in the United States. Darden operates over 2,150 restaurants and employs more than 191,000 people across its portfolio. In fiscal year 2025, Darden generated nearly $12.1 billion in sales, while Olive Garden alone contributed $5.2 billion—a reflection of the brand's enduring popularity, fueled in part by a surge in delivery and off-premises dining.
"When major players like Olive Garden expand here, it's a sign that Corpus Christi is no longer a market to watch—it's one to invest in," said Pinkham. "This city is growing, thriving and entering a new era of momentum."
