Seriously enjoy coming to this location! Amber (at the bar) 100% takes care of me and my food allergies! I get the simply salmon on top of an Italian salad. Delicious! Not to mention the delicious specialty drinks she makes my husband and I! Thank you amber and carrabba's for the consistent and fantastic service! read more

Shoutout to the staff at Carrabba's Lutz because the service was honestly top tier. Everyone was super friendly and welcoming from the moment we walked in. Our server was really attentive, checked on us at the perfect times, and made sure we had everything we needed. You can tell the team there actually cares about the experience and not just rushing people in and out. The vibes were great, everyone had a positive attitude, and it made the whole meal even better. Definitely one of those places where the service makes you want to come back. read more

Food was awesome today!! The portions and presentation of the plates were on point. Salad looked fresh and beautiful, full plate too. Service was good as well. Wish Carrabbas was like this all the time and every location. Today was definitely a good Carrabbas day. We arrived 10min before lunch time special was over too. Isabella C was a friendly n nice server today . Good job today 9/3/2025 read more

Hi my wife and I had dinner Saturday evening 2-8-25 at Carrabba's location in Lutz/Suncoast Pkwy FL. We just moved to the Tampa FL area. We used to live in the Atlanta GA area and have eaten at Carrabba's for about 15 years. The food experience tonight was not good at all. Our server was very good and attentive and I would say above-average to excellent service but the food was not good at all. Very disappointing. Ultimately no matter how great the server and service that he or she provides is-----if the food is bad then that ruins the evening and the dining out experience. My Chicken Parmesan tasted like it was cooked from frozen chicken patties and was not appetizing and made me sick afterwards and I was sick and up all night. My wife had the Chicken Bryan which is what she usually gets and she said it was nowhere as good as it usually is compared to the locations we have eaten at in Atlanta and she also said it was luke warm and not hot. Also she noted that the Chicken soup seemed to be alot blander and lacked the typical seasoning and punch that it usually has. My wife also got sick from the food after getting home. I can tell you that in all the years we have gone to Carrabba's in the past we have left feeling very satisfied and feeling like we can't wait to go back again. This time our thought after leaving the restaurant was that we did not want to eat at Carrabba's ever again. read more

I tend to lower my standards when it comes to chain Italian spots like this one. When I keep my standards low - I'm not disappointed-today was that day. I went in for lunch and was greeted by a large glass bowls of toothpicks (see pic). They were not individually wrapped - just sort a dive on in and grab and toothpick. I humorously voiced my disgust with the host and they laughed and agreed. It was empty - I ordered a steak salad - I had a meeting so the promptness of the food coming was perfect. I ordered the steak medium - pretty easy right. It came medium - but very very chewy. They probably didn't let the steak rest a bit - or maybe it was laying around. It lacked any nuance of salt/ pepper - nothing. I gobbled it done and left. The best part was the bread and garlic and oil. read more

We went there last night for dinner and the food was blah... I order crab cakes as my meal with a side of alfredo and the crab cakes should e been cooked longer. Overall we were very disappointed with our meal and the bill was $142. We won't be back. No one thought the food was good at all. Waitress was so busy she barely had time for anything. Took forever to get drinks from bar.. Just not good all around read more

I hadn't been to a Carrabba's since '15 when I lived in GA. I was in the area picking up my glasses and decided to have an early dinner. Service was great and the staff were hustling. Even with the rush of snow birds filling the place up they kept there composure. I ordered the Italian trio to try a bit of everything, spicy lentil soup, and stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer. The food was alright but chicken in my parm was quite thin literally crunchy. Well a nice trip down memory lane at least. read more

So here's the thing.. I feel like if you've made a 6:30 reservation, you should be sat at like, 6:30/6:40 at the latest. Apparently, 7:35 was the standard for this branch of Carrabbas. Yes, we were given two free appetizers, how kind, mind you, one was a calamari that no one asked for and basically no one ate, as we were a group of non seafood and gluten free individuals. On top of that, the service was mid, at least 50% of the things we had asked for were forgotten, and frankly, the food was not worth the wait. Yes it's a Friday night, I understand they cannot control how busy they are, but this was a seriously annoying and underwhelming experience. Not returning. read more

My husband and I order dinner through doordash and the delivery was exceptional. The service was great and quick! We ordered the chicken marsala, rigatoni martini and a traditional cannoli. The food was tasteful and fresh, especially the cannoli. My only complaint would be I wish there was more sauce in the rigatoni, other then that it was 10/10. read more

My favorite is their minestrone soup! Theirs is made so well and tastes more fresh. Not as soggy as the location by me in Temple Terrace. Service was good. read more

We always enjoy our regular dinners at this location. I have been to 2 of their Monthly wine pairing dinner events and its amazing. The wines are very well paired and the menu very thoughtfully planned out. Service is amazing and the ambiance they put into the decor and table setting make you feel you are somewhere far away from the rest of the dining room. They give you information regarding each dish and wine. Its a 4 course meal and each course is more delicious and enjoyable then the last. These are full portions and yes you can take home whatever you can't finish. They take special note of any allergies and substitute nicely. We generally meet as a ladies night but this is also perfect for a special occasion or date night. You can also purchase any bottles you enjoy to take home. Experience I highly recommend. read more

Great curbside service. Dependable food. Always can count on the service and food quality

Carrabbas food is so good that out of all the restaurants I could go to I picked it for my birthday dinner ! All 5 of my family members loved our meals ! We love the bread with the oil & herbs , the mozzarella sticks appetizer , I got a house salad with their house dressing so yummy . They had great service & kept my kids shirley temple cup refills coming , since it was my birthday they sang happy birthday to me in Italian - so fun and I got the best dessert it had a brownie and hot fudge that was delightful . Great service , delicious food , good prices ! Their portions are big so we are thinking our family of four can just share two items so it's less expensive and go more often !!! read more

Food was amazing and service was fast! I got a text with a link and all that popped up was a question about what number parking spot I was at. The delivery was straightforward, the text and confirmation from my phone number let the servers know what food was mine. Everything was hot and nothing was missing, I really enjoyed my experience. read more

What I ordered vs what I got! Pretty crazy for $8.29. Do better carrabbas, that's just ridiculous! read more

Had a great take out order today. Tuscan Double pork chops with penne pasta and broccoli was cooked perfectly and house salad was fresh. We also got a Tuscan grilled chicken with broccoli and house salad. Everything was perfect and packed very well. read more

Very disappointed! Maybe it's just me but over the past few years I feel like they started adding a ton of pepper to their recipes. We tried the regular Shrimp Scampi last night and it was so peppery we couldn't eat it!! Interestingly, the same company that owns Carrabba's also owns Outback and Outback also makes everything taste very peppery which is why I also stopped going there too. read more

Excellence is their by word! Excellent management by Mr Josh Henry Excellent service by Alexa and Gabriel Excellent food at reasonable prices I recommend Carrabba's wholeheartedly!! read more

great taste great service. easy online ordering. text message when order is ready making the process transparent

We had the Chicken Alfredo and the Chicken Positano and both were fantastic! We had the Tiramisu for dessert and it was also wonderful!

Server was Megan. We were a party of 10 and the service was absolutely excellent. Megan was looking out for us the whole time. Everyone said their dinner was delicious. It was served manner. The presentation was very nice. I personally love the length of sausage soup. It was delicious. read more

Great food, reasonable prices, delicious appetizers, friendly associates really treat you as family. We throughly enjoy the bimonthly wine pairing dinners a great value, and the $10 take home dinners what's not to love about this restaurant.... read more

For dad and daughter night, we decided to go to Carrabbas. As soon as we walked in, this place was definitely it. Clean, organized, and beautiful! I never stop talking about how nice it was! Got seated in seconds, wow!! The food was sooo good! The plain spaghetti and meatballs were excellent. This restaurant deserves so much! read more

My good friend and I decided to stop in at carrabbas for a late dinner and we were sat with Chloe as our server, she was very attentive, sweet and kind. Along with Brian and Peyton they were also wonderful. Our salads were delicious and really just hit the spot. We will definitely be back!!! read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - delicious food and amazing environment, we love you carrabbas! - Italian Near Me - Lutz, Florida

Carrabba's reminds me of an upscale Olive Garden in all the best ways. The bread and olive oil combo was delicious, our side salads were huge, I ordered Caesar and loved it. The meal I ordered wasn't particularly memorable but I ordered based on calories (big mistake lol but it's listed right there!). Mine had rigatoni and sausage, I had plenty of leftovers that I didn't eat. We also ordered the calamari which was yummy to share. Others at the table ordered the chicken Parmesan and eggplant parm, both were excellent. Great experience overall! read more

loved our Johnny Rocco salads! Dressing, shrimp and scallops are the best! Calamari was amazing too!

Loved the staff. Food is always great here. I will definitely be back. I always enjoy coming here.

This is an excellent location. It's very easy to get takeout and they always take care of everything promptly. It's very very convenient.

The team is exceptional!! I was very impressed with our server but the experience began with a warm welcome and smiles. Is the staff is smiling then I feel things are being handled well behind the scenes. I know how hard it is to be in the service industry. Keep crushing it Carrabas! read more

The food and service was just absolutely amazing! My son and I dined in shortly after lunch with no waiting. The hostess was very friendly and asked if we had a seating preference. We had two amazing servers (Breanna & Lily) with one in training. I was a little disappointed the $6 take home promotion was eliminated, so we opted for the $10 take home instead for equal or less value of entrées ordered while dining-in. I ordered the salmon with spinach, and my son ordered shrimp Alfredo which is referred in a different name on the menu. Everything was amazing! Food was served hot and drinks never empty. Thanks to the drink refill team like a pit crew at the Daytona 500! The restaurant manager (Robert) even stopped by to ensure our service and dining needs were being met. I gave him much praise of everything mentioned above and much more. He even provided my son (15 year old) with some words of wisdom when he's ready to start working. I've learned over the years a team of workers are often a reflection of their leadership! Overall, it was an excellent dining experience today and look forward to future dining experiences such as today! Thank you Robert, Breanna and Lily for making a difference to win the day! read more

I was charged $4 for a 4 mushrooms. I ordered a side of Marsala Sauce and literally got 4 mushrooms with a teaspoon if I was lucky of sauce. I mentioned my disappointment to the girl & she told me I would have to buy more cups. I'm a Carrabbas regular but only a handful at this location. After this bad experience, I recommend taking your business elsewhere read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - $4 for 4 mushrooms - Italian Near Me - Lutz, Florida

ordered to go, everyone the order is wrong but today tops all. The food was COLD, we ordered extra bread... it wasn't there so when we asked the girl who brought it out, she got an attitude. She went back inside and brought another paper bag out... the bread wasn't wrapped in anything.... just put into the bag. There wasn't any herbs or oil, just bread in a bag. I don't know, for $50.00, FOR LUNCH, I expect the order to be right, warm and no ATTITUDE !!!!! I will NEVER eat at this or any Carrabas again !!!! read more

Let me start off by saying the staff is the best that I've ever encountered. The food came quick. They cleaned our table quick and the new winter menu with the short ribs and classic combo is delicious. read more

Food is always tasty! I had grilled vegetable ravioli and my husband had chicken rosa maria. Ambience is always the same. What is unique to this Carrabba's is the slow, disinterested service. It is our second time here and there is absolutely no reason to return to have this experience. Isn't that why you enjoy eating out: Food, ambience, AND service? If one is missing completely - why return? read more

Horrible experience. Our server completely embarrassed me in front of my party. Instead of trying to figure out what I can have, she said very nasty to me "You can have the kids man and chz". Are you serious?? How offensive!! My husband was so mad! It's already frustrating enough when you have an allergy but to not take it seriously is completely out of line for this restaurant. We asked for the manager three times before he finally came over, but after I put my order in. I was miserable the entire time and would have walked out had I not been with another party. I ended up putting something together to keep the peace at my table but I will never return to this location. Temple Terrace has always been so pleasant taking special time to help me. read more

I only came here once before and that was while I was in NY. Great environment and our waitress was very nice. I ordered a caesar salad and instead got a house salad, the waitress told us to pick a dessert on the house to make up for the confusion. Other than that the food was great, it does get busy in the evenings and it was a Saturday as well so I suggest calling and putting your name on the waiting list as they do not have reservations. read more
