Editorial Review for Carrabba's Italian Grill – by Citysearch Staff

In Short
Decorated with family photos of founders Damian Mandola and Johnny Carrabba, the open dining rooms pack groups of friends and extended families into four- and six-person tables and booths; smaller parties or couples can grab stools at the open kitchen's adjoining bar to watch chefs make dinner. The traditional southern Italian menu offers grill specialties like steak Marsala and fire-roasted chicken breast with sun-dried tomatoes; pasta dishes include fettuccine Alfredo and garlic-sauteed shrimp with linguine.

User Reviews for Carrabba's Italian Grill

3 Star Rating: Average

10/11/2007 Posted by khterry

Once we were seated, the service was good. Prompt, not intrusive but attentive. Personally, I would rate the food as just OK...nothing special. I actually like Macaroni Grill's or Buca di Beppo's food better for a chain/franchise restaurant. I agree with the other reviewer....I wouldn't call this a romantic restaurant but OK for a first date.

Pros: Good service

Cons: Average food and wait time for seating on weekends

5 Star Rating: Highly Recommended

We have also had Ashley as our waitress and she is awsome, but again we have meet most of the staff. :) Try the Fillet Rosa, it's not on the menu but it is the best steak you will ever eat! Also, the chicken trio is a great dish, not on the emnu but it has one of each chicken breast on it.

Pros: Great food, Great service

Cons: Loud
