Carrabba's Italian Grill

Very good dining experience, food was delicious and our waitress was great, very personable, friendly and humorous. Ordered shrimp scampi on a bed of angel hair pasta for an appetizer. For the main meal, it was grilled pork shops, fettuccine alfredo and garlic mashed potatoes. Everything was cooked correctly and tasted wonderful. Pork chops were nice sized and sides were of good portion. I felt it was worth the amount paid. Dining area was nice and clean. Low light for a nice dining experience. I will return next chance I get. I would recommend this location to anyone. 5*

Never ate here or had a desire to try. Upon arriving & entering, the establishment was clean & neat. A hostess met us at a hostess stand & showed us to our seats. We were greeted by our waitress, Melissa, fairly quickly. She kindly asked for our drinks while giving us ample time to review the menu. She answered our questions while offering entrée suggestions. Brought us bread with oil & herbs to get us started. Our food came out in order of appetizers, salad, & main dish (some places bring everything out at once). Everything was delicious, my wife enjoyed her salmon covered in scallops. I had a ceaser salad as a side with main dish served with sautéed broccoli & grilled shrimp that was lightly breaded. The sauce that came drizzled on top of my shrimp was zesty while the crumbs provided a nice texture as the grilled shrimp was cooked perfect. I ordered a John Cole, scoops of vanilla ice ream with roasted cinnamon rum pecans & caramel drizzle, delicious but my spoon was bigger than the portions of ice cream. Overall, this was a excellent experience from our waitress, Melissa, to our last bite of dinner.

We eat at Carrabba’s often, in many different locations (due to travel) and this is the worst Carrabba’s so far. The restaurant was not even at half capacity (on a Friday night so that should tell you something), and it still took an hour to get server. The salad was awful— the dressing nothing but oil. Server had an attitude when asked for other salad dressing, or to remove plates from the table., etc. This Carrabba’s is just horrible, we will never be back Recommend you stay away. Even the manager admitted the food was not up to Carrabba’s standards (see attached photo of chicken parmigiana — does this look like a $20 dish?).

This was my first time eating at Carabba’s Italian Grill, again not got my significant other. We started off with the bread and olive bread. I requested butter. The bread was good. He drank a sweet tea and I had a blackberry lemonade because they were out of raspberry. The appetizers we started off with were zucchini fritte and tomato caprese with fresh burrata. The zucchini was so good I could eat it all day. The tomato caprese with fresh burrata was also very delicious. My significant other had the chicken Marsala with a house salad. He said both were excellent. I had the 10oz Tuscan grilled sirloin with grilled asparagus and a side of penne pomodoro. The penne was okay. The steak and asparagus were pretty good. The dessert we shared was a cannoli cake for 2 but they ran out of cannolis. It was really good. Taylor was our server and he was excellent, he was very prompt with our requests! He swiftly removed empty plates and always gave us refills before we even noticed we needed them. The restaurant was quite and gave off a very romantic feeling. I would defiantly come back here.

This is one of my favorite places to eat! I have never had anything bad here. They have a great bar and their food is superb! I had some of the best french fries I've ever tasted in my life! The fries have the best, lightest taste with Parmesan cheese and truffles on them! Pure Heaven!!! The staff is usually very good and professional. I would highly recommend it. Great steaks as well. The bread is great too.

This was my husband's and my first time to eat here and we were both VERY pleased! The atmosphere was nice, there's a wide variety on the menu, the seating hostess was very pleasant...as was our waiter... and the food was DELICIOUS! Our waiter went above and beyond by having the chef add blackening seasoning to my shrimp scampi! Based on this visit, we WILL BE BACK!

My last visit (5/14/2022) was my second time coming here. We had the best waitress (she is this spunky redhead) and she really took care of us. Even mentioned it was happy hour so all the adults partook in one drink. The hostess on the other hand was awful. She was not friendly at all we we arrived and even when I kindly told her thank you have a good day when we were leaving she didn’t even say thank you. Y’all please don’t put a hostess on the stand who isn’t friendly, it is her job to make people feel welcome and she didn’t! The food is good, but some of it is definitely not good enough for its price tag. Gibbons (your dining neighbor) appears to gets twice as much business as y’all because it offers better food at a better price. I may be back, I may not, but I would recommend it to someone looking for a simi-decent Italian place in Shreveport!
