I love Carrabba's. My family almost exclusively comes here for celebratory dinners such as birthdays! We came by for my mom's bday dinner last night. My recommendation is always the Chicken Piccata and Caesar salad. We always share the calamari which is fab. My fam always gets the Pasta Weesie (could feed you for three days straight I SWEAR). Service was great as usual, and their olive oil was especially yummy last night! Our waitress brought a complimentary dessert for my mama and recommended the Songo which we all could share. Be ready to spend ~$25 per meal, but also be ready to treat yourself and enjoy a nice full belly of delicious pasta afterwards! Thank you Carrabba's! read more

Our server Justin was very knowledgeable with GF options. I really enjoyed the chicken soup, which he said the pasta is added as each bowl is ordered, so able to be served GF. I did order a GF pasta and the Alfredo Weezie. I did have an upset stomach after but unsure if it's the richness of the cream sauce? I didn't ask about shared water for noodles! Nice quiet environment, great for conversations etc. read more

This place was dead, I mean like 6 tables dead. The services was ridiculous as well. The hostess was very nice and seated us very quickly, obviously there was nobody else there, so we could've sat anywhere we wanted. The waitress came over fairly quickly got a drink order, but was actually looking for us to order our food with only having about two minutes to look at a menu. It felt like We were being pressured to get in and out as quickly as possible. It seemed like whenever we needed something, she was walking away before we could even finish a sentence. One of us ordered the fettuccine and it would've been better from a knorr packet. The other one ordered the rigatoni with sausage and the sausage was crumbled on top and it would've been nice to see it mixed in with the sauce. Again, just not worth the price they're asking. I would imagine this place probably won't be around too much longer. This is my experience, I'm sure if there was only six other tables in there on a night that it should've been much busier others are probably thinking the same thing. read more

Horrible meal. Got the new filet and shrimp. It was on a pile of egg noodles that were all in a clump and stuck together. Hardly any filet and shrimp was tough Spent a lot of money and had left hungry. Told the waitress but the manager never came over. Paid and left. So disappointed. Used to really like Carrabba's and ate there often. read more

Tonight was my first night out since coming home from both the hospital & the health rehabilitation center & my friend Kristy took me out to dinner here. I'd never been here so I was very happy to come here. We had the most amazing waiter plus he was really handsome. I wish I would have gotten his name. He was totally awesome, very helpful, & even recommended me what to have since I was torn between 2 entrees. I took his recommendation & went with the Shrimp & Scampi Linguini & was I glad I did! I really liked it & have some for leftovers! He kept our drinks filled, checked on us & provided the BEST service! The ambiance was inviting & we got there before it got really crowded so timing was everything! We will definitely come back! read more

I am SORELY DISAPPOINTED by our experience at this Carrabba's. It's been years since we've dined at Carrabba's and we were painfully reminded why! I honestly don't even know where to start. The food was bland, not well prepared, and so not worth the prices they are charging! The lasagna that I had was equivalent to what you might buy from the grocery store frozen section and put in the oven at home. The center was mushy, lacking flavor, and dry. The lasagna had been drenched in thin sauce but once cut into it was a desert. My son ordered a steak medium. It was WELL WELL WELL done, tough, chewy, terrible! The steak by itself was $35. Please review the attached photo where you will see a paper thin sliver of meat. We paid an extra $3 for flavored butter which honestly wasn't worth 50 cents. He asked for the garlic fries and we were told there would be an up charge of 'a dollar and some change.' Well that dollar and some change turned out to be $1.99 for soggy fries that were clearly just dipped in oil! First of all, you should know what the up charge is and secondly, 99 cents is not 'some change'. It's another dollar! I know that's petty but it's basically how everything during this experience played out. When we arrived on a Friday night and there was no one waiting outside and only three other tables with guests inside, we should have known! Our bill for three people and no alcohol was $105 before tip. We won't be back. read more

Ambiance isn't bad. Service was ok, our drinks were empty longer than what I liked. Food took forever. I had the chicken piccata, chicken was ok but the pasta just a bit over cooked. Some of it was mushy. My husband got a steak, first time ever he returned it. Steak was cold and barely cooked. My brother in laws meal came 20 minutes after we got ours. Waitress was very nice. read more

We had not been here in a while so we had decided to stop by and have some dinner. The place did not look clean the server's looked messy . the only item which was tasty was our appetizer which was caprese salad our main course had no taste and just seemed like fast food Sorry there are so many other good Italian restaurants that I will continue to go And enjoy our meal. Zulu guys won't be seeing us ever again read more

We were looking for somewhere that sounded good for Easter Dinner and stumbled on Carrabba's. We dined here a few times at the location in Scottsdale before they went under. We decided on DoorDash because Easter is such a busy Holiday. My mom got the Tuscan Grilled Sirloin and was rather disappointed. The steak was overcooked and the Mashed Potatoes and Caesar Salad tasted powdered/bagged. My Johnny Trio was good. The Chicken Bryan and Sirloin Marsala were hot and flavorful-- but the Mezzaluna Pasta was cold and bland. I'm not sure if I'd come back much, due to the high prices and Olive Garden equivalent food. read more

Good grief is this place bad. Believe the reviews. I'm not sure if it's the standard of this particular location, or all of them, but the food is BAD. Soup served cold, bolognese had no meat in it, and the children's meatball from spaghetti and meatballs was so grey that I'm convinced it was at least a week old. My LO didn't eat it because it seemed so off. We had a newer waitress, and I'm convinced they don't train on checking how food is entirely to avoid having to take anything back. The only opportunities we were given to try getting any help was when I was brought a glass of wine I ordered or they were bringing out a salad. I was more terse with the waitress than I probably should have been, but still left her a decent tip. We absolutely will not be back with how bad the food itself is. The company should invest in some secret shoppers so they can see for themselves. read more

Food: mediocre and kind of boring Service: decent, a bit impersonal and rushed Ambiance: this restaurant doesn't seem to be kept up very much. It's kind of run down. I live for their crusty bread and dipping oil. read more

Wow! I have not eaten at Carrabba's in many years, and after this meal, I remember why. I decided to give this place. Another chance when I received an email with several new limited time menu items. I placed a to go order for the rigatoni, Al Forno, and the chocolate peanut butter brownie. When I got home and started to eat the rigatoni, I was shocked at how dry, bland, and tasteless it was. I tried sprinkling salt on it to give it some flavor, but that didn't help any at all. It was very hard to eat, considering it was so dry and with the lack of flavor, I just gave up and considered it a loss. The chocolate peanut butter brownie was very good! It is the only reason this review received the two stars. That dessert alone is definitely four stars. I used to love eating at Carrabba's, but after trying this pasta and wasting my money, I regret that I tried it today because $20 on horrible pasta isn't what I had on my bingo card today. read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill Bourbon Dinner - A Night to Remember Location: 2709 S Market St, Gilbert, AZ Our recent Bourbon Dinner at Carrabba's Italian Grill in Gilbert was an exceptional dining experience, filled with delicious food, expertly paired bourbons, and impeccable service. This five-course meal, guided by bartender Chris, was a true culinary journey that left everyone in our party of four raving. He was extremely knowledgeable of the bourbons and the food. The evening began with a Wild Mushroom Soup, drizzled with truffle oil. Rich and full of flavor, it set the tone for what was to come. The next course, wood-fired grilled wings, was a standout. Served with a creamy Gorgonzola cheese sauce for dipping, the smoky, charred flavor from the grill elevated the wings to another level. Pairing this course was the Italian Old Fashioned, which was unanimously declared the best we've ever tasted--perfectly balanced with a delightful blend of savory, sweet, and spicy notes. The Rigatoni course followed, featuring a garlic rosemary cream sauce, sautéed mushrooms, roasted tomatoes, and crumbled Italian fennel sausage. Even the tomato skeptics at the table loved this dish! Served as a full-sized plate, it was paired with Woodford Reserve, a classic bourbon that complemented the flavors beautifully. The main course was a showstopper: a prime ribeye topped with creamy Gorgonzola walnut butter and toasted walnuts, accompanied by the creamiest, most flavorful creamed spinach we've ever had. The richness of the dish was perfectly matched with Four Roses Small Batch Bourbon, adding depth and warmth to every bite. We ended the night with a delightful bourbon cinnamon panna cotta, a dessert as unique as it was delicious. The pairing of Brother's Bond Straight Bourbon, created by actors from The Vampire Diaries, added an intriguing finish to an already stellar meal. Every one of the special dinners that I have gone to at Carrabba's always serves plenty of food. We took enough food home to have another full meal. Thank to Kyle Pardon, proprietor, every detail of the evening, from the food to the bourbon pairings, was thoughtfully executed. The Carrabba's team of Chef Rosie and Courtney did a fabulous job. It is amazing when 20 ribeyes can be served all at the same time and cooked to perfection. Carrabba's continues to impress with their special event dinners and this event was no exception. You will have a chance to experience their fabulous wine dinner on December 3rd, which will feature Caymus Vineyards celebrating their 50th Anniversary. Caymus is known for its outstanding wines. It will be five courses each paired with Caymus wines. Carrabba's will also be presenting their Feast of the Seven Fishes Italian specialty dinner on December 18th. It is a chef-inspired menu paired with wines to celebrate the holiday season. Once you go to one Feast of the Seven Fishes dinner, you will never ever miss one. I look forward to this every year.

Julia was our server (in training), and she did let us know-that was fine. She brought me garlic fries instead of my sautéed spinach I ordered. I get it, she just needs experience. The problem is, the guy training her was more aware, personable and seemed to care more than she did. He checked up on us, she didn't. He was more aware of getting my spinach When she brought us anything including the check, all she'd do was set it and leave in the most apathetic way. Now the food, obviously not her fault. My plate was average but good. It was more about having to wait for my spinach to eat with my sirloin and mashed potatoes. My husband got the Pollo Rosa Maria. He loved the garlic rosemary fries, and was absolutely disappointed with the chicken's flavor and portion. read more

Was there tonight Mother's Day. Got in at 5:30 ordered food at 5:45. By 7:45-no food. Walked out. We had a sitter waiting at home. Our waitress did bring us drinks after multiple stops. We did get 1 thing of bread and our side salads at the 1 hour mark. The final straw was after going to the bathroom the 3rd time and seeing a whole new crop of people at tables and they all were finishing their food OR in the middle of eating. People that came in the same time we did were gone. Like their tables were dirty with plates and napkins. Never again! read more

I've gone in a fee times and each time has been wonderful! i highly recommended Julia as your server! She's by far the best server I've had, always on top of everything, never have to ask for a refill shell just bring it. she bring the energy. read more

I'm not gonna lie. This place is a bit on the expensive side of my budget. But the food is always top quality and delicious. I have eaten here quite a bit and have yet to have an "average" meal. My wife and I chose this place to celebrate our anniversary and were so happy we did. Cocktails? Peach Sangria and Blackberry Sangria were both amazing. Apps? Can't decide? Have the three in one with zucchini fries, calamari, and mozzarella sticks. Entree? Your on your own there. Everything is good and I can't recommend just one thing because I love everything. Although this trip I had the Pollo Rosa Maria and the sauce was to-die-for Dessert? We had the strawberry cheesecake this time. And the sweetest part...our server knew it was our anniversary so she put a candle in it and the chef added an HA for Happy Anniversary. Awwwwwwwww....... So needless to say we will be making trips here more often. read more

I order from here a lot makes my son and I happy in our tummies. The only problem is my son doesn't eat the bread so I end up eating the whole loaf. I don't think they give me enough oil with the bread, either that or I use way too much oil. Spaghetti is good. Meatballs yummy. read more

The blackberry sangria is good. The house salad is good. The main dishes were not good at all. I noticed in the pictures on here they are light on the sauce so I asked for extra sauce. I got the chicken parmigiana with fettuccine Alfred. The extra sauce came in a little bowl. When I poured it on it was like pour milk on my pasta. Super runny. The noodles tasted like egg noodles. The chicken parm was edible at best. Nothing is homemade & the mushrooms are from a can that were in my hubby's dish; I don't remember the name. Way over priced for the quality of food you get. We will not be back. read more

Good food service location we all liked it. We go every few months even our picky kids enjoyed it!

I visited you restaurant for the 1st time in many years remember how good it was I was excited to see one on 202 and williams field.   I went in to place it to go order and sat at the bar had 2 beers my bill came out to $60..  when I get home I felt robbed, I have included pictures but the chicken tasted frozen the steak was supposed to be cooked medium but as you can see from the pictures it's WAY over done,  alfredo looked like it was  curdled and there were no mushrooms in the Chicken marsala.And I was charged ($26.99) The lobster ravioli is store bought and frozen ($20.99) There were only 4 tables in the place and yet I had a horrible experience. I am completely and utterly upset, I wasted hard money...ur staff and kitchen has given up completely... I'm writing this cuz I'm in the industry and care about value and experience.. Yelp and Google is where you will see my pictures and review. You should take more pride and apologize for taking my money when I can make better at home for $60..ur food/business ruined a date night for me and my wife. I also have included Soyla Pacheco in this email. Sincerely Disappointed read more

This was my first time here, my husband recommended, saying the food is excellent. The food: I had the Ravioli and it was delicious. The sauce was a creamy marinara and the ravioli had the perfect amount of cheese and spinach. My kids had the fettuccine Alfredo and they loved it! The service: The hostess had no personality. She never greeted us, just asked us how many. When she sat us she just turned and walked away. Our waitress seemed annoyed with us. We overly thanked her and eventually she warmed up. Overall the food was great here but the service fell short. read more

The food was great, we came on a Tuesday and sure it was a little slow but our server Bianca made the most of it and was very attentive and nice. She got our order perfect as my wife and I order a filet with Bryan topping and a bunch of extras, lots of times something comes out wrong but she made sure we got what we ordered perfectly first time around! It was delicious. read more

I don't know why I keep trying these sorts of places. I really never have a good experience. It seems that the staff is overworked, understaffed, and underpaid. The poor waitress was working around the place and holding the place together. She didn't give me the correct change but we were so tired we just wanted to leave by the end of it. The bathroom was so gross and smelt so badly. The dining area looked dirty too. There were even crumbs on our table. The food was overpriced but tasted ok. It costed me and my husband 42 dollars for two entrees. The rest of the staff was so friendly and sweet and very welcoming. read more

I had the absolute pleasure of attending the Feast of the 7 Fishes wine pairing dinner at Carrabbas on December 20, 2023, and it was truly a night to remember. From the moment I stepped into the restaurant located at 2709 S Market St, Gilbert, AZ, I knew I was in for a treat. I thoroughly enjoyed the presentation of the history of the Feast and the detailed information on the wines. The evening started with a delightful calamari dish, tossed in a tangy lemon sauce with just the right amount of heat from the pepperoncini. It was a perfect introduction to the seafood feast that awaited us. Paired with a Prosecco, adding a delicate sweetness to the calamari, setting the stage for what was to come. Next up was the seafood chowder, featuring tender pieces of mahi mahi swimming in a creamy lobster and red wine based broth. The wine pairing for this course was a lovely Sauvignon Blanc that complemented the flavors of the chowder beautifully. This wine had a vibrant acidity that brightened the velvety soup. It was a match made in culinary heaven. The linguini di frutti, a medley of scallops, shrimp, calamari, and mussels, was the star of the evening. The seafood was cooked to perfection, tender and succulent. The wine pairing for this course was a Chianti Classico which added depth and complexity to the dish. The main course, a perfectly cooked salmon served with lobster ravioli with just a hint of mint, was a true showstopper. Paired with a Pinot Grigio, the combination was simply divine. To end the evening on a sweet note, we were treated to a classic Italian dessert - cannoli. The crispy shell filled with creamy ricotta cheese and chocolate chips was the perfect ending to a truly remarkable meal. Paired with a Riesling, which enhanced the sweetness of the pastry without overwhelming the palate. The wine pairings throughout the evening were nothing short of exceptional. Each wine was carefully selected to enhance the flavors of the dishes. The pairings elevated the dining experience, creating a harmonious balance between food and drink. Overall, the Feast of the 7 Fishes wine pairing dinner was a night of culinary bliss. From the tantalizing calamari to the decadent cannoli, every course was a testament to the skill and creativity of the chefs. The perfectly paired wines added another layer of enjoyment to the evening, making it an unforgettable experience. I am already looking forward to next year's Feast. Carrabbas often has wine pairing dinners and I go to as many as I can. They are extremely reasonably priced. I encourage you to try the Dolce Vita dinner coming up on January 9, 2024 at 6:30. At $60 it is worth every penny. Make your reservations at 480-726-7455. I always bring friends with me which makes it a fun event. Ciao. read more
