Every time I visit this location I am NEVER disappointed! The service is always excellent, from the hostesses greeting me at the door, to the sweet wait staff they have. The food is always excellently prepared and it is easy to tell that everything is very fresh! I always recommend this location and I always come back for more!

Carrabba's Italian Grill is a step up from the usual chain and not a "bargain". However it's food quality and service merits the additional expense. Being Italian and married to a gourmet cook always puts Italian restaurants to the ultimate test for me but we've found this "family chain" usually up to the challenge. Our server Allie recommended the $8... More

This was our 2nd time going to Carrabas, and the 1st time in over 4 years. The only reason we returned was because someone gave us a gift card for this restaurant. Having recently been spoiled by the great cuisine and food at the Olive Garden during the past 2 weeks, this experience paled in comparison. I ordered the chicken... More

If I am in the mood for great Italian food and Calamari, I don't go anywhere else. The Calamari here is absolutely the best on the planet. I love it so much, that I get two orders. They make up my appetizer and my entree.

We had an enjoyable late dinner of soup and salad. The minestrone soup was hearty and tasty and salads were made with fresh and crispy vegetables. The warm bread and olive oil was a nice accompaniment. The restaurant is relatively new, very comfortable and has a well trained staff.

We ordered our dinner to go since we were staying in a nearby hotel with our 2 young children. The meals were delicious and the staff packed everything we needed. We will definitely go back there again when we travel.

Carrabbas is great. Go for the pasta dishes and sit near the kitchen.

We've had a number of items on the menu, including pasta and some of the wood grilled dishes. The food is always well prepared and flavorful. They use quite a bit of fresh garlic in most dishes (which I love). However, I do feel the restaurant is a little bit on the pricey side, even if portion sizes are quite... More
