Once a holdout on offering delivery for the casual diner, Olive Garden is reversing course and will use Uber to deliver breadsticks and pasta. Darden Restaurants, the chain’s parent company, announced Thursday an “exclusive multi-year delivery partnership” with Uber that will begin later this year at a limited number of Olive Garden locations and likely expand nationally to its more than 900 locations next May if the pilot is successful.

Darden Restaurants shares surged Thursday after the Olive Garden owner reported improving sales trends after a decline in July and announced a new delivery pilot with Uber.

Dining out can be a cherished experience, but today’s consumers are increasingly opting to stay home and save.
