Do you like Carrabba's Italian Grill?

[Blondie]

One is opening up near me, and I've never eaten here before!

Is it any good?

I absolutely love Carrabas. Try the Chicken Marsala. I could lick the sauce right off the plate. They also have the best herb/oil dip for bread, and the bread is great. I am hoping to go there for Mother's Day.

Enjoy, it's wonderful. Better than Olive Garden and Johnny Carino's.

 

[caitycaity]

yep!

My sister works at one and I love the food, especially the fettuchini alfredo!

I love this place! We used to go there all the time when we lived in NC. We moved to NH and just recently they opened one about 40 minutes away!
I love the chicken dish that is stuffed with proscuitto and cheese. oh to die for!

Oh and if you have the tiramasu, make sure you have a designated driver! LOL

went to the website..here's the dish

Pollo Rosa Maria
Fire-roasted chicken breast stuffed with fontina cheese and prosciutto, topped with mushrooms and a basil lemon butter sauce

The lobster ravioli they make is wonderful! Try it if you get the chance!

(Now, I'm hungry!)

 

[Bob Slydell]

Yep. It's pretty good food.

Do you need to dress up to go there?

Other than the Mothers Day part (I don't have children)


WHAT SHE SAID!!!!

Oh God, yes! I ate at one in Clearwater, Florida a couple of years ago. It was the best steak I've ever had. None near here.

Better than Olive Garden

Carrabbas is owned by the same company.

Yum! The first one we tried was in Orlando and quickly found the one here in Virginia.

Ours is crowded all the time and everyone we know loves it. DH and I are possibly the only 2 people on the planet that don't care for it. The food is dripping in oil (literally!) and doesn't have the spiciness we crave. We do a great deal of ethnic cooking at home and use LOTS and LOTS of hot spices.....far more than a restaurant could get by using for the general public. But, as I said, everyone in our town seems to love it!

There's one in my town and I didn't care for it. But, all of these great reviews are going to make me give it another chance.
Maybe it's because I come from an Italian cooking family with old recipes that are loved. We have yet to find a place with gravy that we like.
I hope yours is good.

YUM! I love Carrabba's...especially the Chicken Gratella with Garlic Mashed Potatoes

Actually Carrabbas is owned by the Outback Chain. Olive Garden is owned by Darden restaurants(owners of Red Lobster, Olive Garden, Bahama Breeze). It's the BEST food too!!!!

 

[Dodie]

OMG, yes!!!!

Their food is AMAZING! You'll love it.

 

[olena]

That's one of our favorites! I like the Pasta Mezza Luna and the Sirloin Marsala....

 

[MOMTOMOOTOO]

Another Carrabba's fan here!!

 

[Rock'n Robin]

The chicken marsala is AWESOME!!!!!
They have call-ahead seating and on the weekends you still might have to wait hours, so go early if you go on the weekend!

I love the chicken taglarini. It's to die for.
