CONSISTENCY

The food prep in not consistent and some items such as the fried calamari are very salty. Service is slow most of the time.

Very Good

Everything we've ordered so far has been very good. The food always tastes so fresh. I especially love the "Potato Crusted Sea Bass -- it's fantastic! This may be the best Italian chain restaurant in the land!

Overpriced,skimpy on portions

I found Carrabas to be overpriced and skimpy on portions. Food quality was only fair. The service was good. I would recommend it only on atmosphere and service,not food quality or value.

Sizziling Italian

Carrabba's is a good italian restraunt, but the food needs a little work done to it. Larger selection of choices would be nice. Overall, its a good family restraunt.
