I was expecting a much better experience when we dined at Carabba's. The food was average and somewhat overpriced. The service was less than stellar. We waited for quite some time after asking for our check. We also witnessed one of the servers play with here hair (a long ponytail) repeatedly, and then handle silverware. With all the options available in the area, I don't think we'll be dining at Carabba's anytime soon.

I am from NY and am hard to please with most food. You can't get the same Italian here as NY. However Carrabba's is a place I love to go. The food is consistant and good. The atmosphere is really nice and the waitstaff has always been more than friendly and helpful.

After traveling all day from Windsor, Ontario I would have been very happy with anything........however....Justin our server has been one of the very few times in my life to exceed my expectations. This included automatically bringing extra lemons for our water or just in case we wanted some for our mussels. He was very courteous and attentive. Many times he checked to be sure that we were happy with our meal. He even went as far as mentioning to the manager that we made a comment on the size of the mussels. Our meal was very good and comparable to other Carrabba's that we frequent in Florida.
Unfortunately I left my sweater at the restaurant and after arriving in Florida phoned the restaurant and spoke with Tracy who said she would mail it out the next day.....at no cost to me.
That is great service.....

Let's start with the bread with herbs and olive oil. Then move on to some friend zucchini sticks...best I have ever had. Now add a delicious salad, and wonderful *lick your plate clean* entrees like Chicken Bryan, Sirloin Marsala, any veal dish and more. I am not pasta person, so I choose the zucchini or spinach as a side. I have never had room for dessert. Service is usually very good, and the take-out is great....the servers will pack your bag with bread, oil, herbs and everything you need to enjoy your meal at home.
