Yes, I have, 5 times, i must say its very delicious. their pizza is great, their appetizers are delicious. they are a little more upscale than olive garden so be prepared to pay more.

I think that some of the food at Carrabba's is quite good - especially their minestrone soup. They make a nice dish with shrimp and scallops and a lemon sauce on angel hair pasta called spedoni de mare.
As far as chain restaurants go, it tends to be better than most. I just don't really like the idea of giving my money to some large and impersonal corporation. Do yourself and your community a favor and seek out some locally owned and operated restaurants. You might get better food and the owners will appreciate your business. I'm sure that Johnny Carrabba doesn't know and doesn't care who you are.

I ate there once and was really disappointed! My pasta dish was less than flavorful and the presentation sucked! If I'm paying $16 for a plate of pasta atleast give me the food centered on the plate with some parsley or something for color! Our service was bad too. I'm not a huge fan of Olive Garden but I would rather go there any day.
I was under the impression that they were having a busy night the time I was there but I really felt there was no excuse for the quality of our dishes. I can tolerate a long wait, crowded tables, and slow service if the food is good. But blow all 4 and I'm not going back.
This was in Toledo, if you're somewhere else you might try it!

Love Carrabba's! Their house salad dressing is to die for, and I reccomend their Pollo Maria or the Mezzaluna ravioli.

I'd say it's an above average Italian 'joint'...not gourmet, but better than the Olive Garden. I like their sausage dinner.

There's a Carraba's here in Tallahassee. I was going to eat there one day for lunch, but they didn't open until 4pm. So, I haven't got around to eating there, yet. Although I have heard it is very good.

Same as the person above me. It was absolutely terrible. I will basically eat anything, but I could only eat a bite or two of my entree here. Everything was bad, from the appetizers to the entrees. How do you screw up bruschetta? It's hard, but they managed to do it.

Yes I like it. If you like seafood they have a pasta dish with shrimp, mussels. Pretty tasty.
