Anthony was great and Carlos was great cook at Carrabas at the Wesley Chapel location.

It was a super busy Saturday night. And like Brandon on a Saturday night, every.single.person.in.town was out to eat. No problem! The amazing hostess at this location (across SR 56 from Prime Outlets) had us covered. (I wish I had gotten her name-dark hair, studying to be a chemical engineer, amazing energy! Fabulous) got us a booth immediately! That was a great beginning to a great night! Carrabba's has been a favorite since the 90s. I was a mezzaluna girl for years. Now, my go to order is the chicken piccata. Usually I choose broccoli on the side. This time I indulged and got the garlic mashed potatoes (which are so good-and not too garlicky!) it came with soup or salad-I went with the Italian salad. All of it was excellent. So was the service by Brandon. He was attentive, courteous, personable and anticipated our every need. We were celebrating a friend's birthday and he facilitated that beautifully. She felt special-which she deserves. This place was buzzing! It was high energy-which was exhilarating. The crew was used to it-not flustered. They seemed to thrive on the chaos-which made it fun for guests. The decor is fresh and new-loved the light fixture and the light up outline of Italy wall art! The amuse bouche served on the top of the wine glasses (on tiny wooden plates) is a super cute touch. The booth seemed a little tight for four adults and all of our glorious plates-but that's our fault (we had all those birthday bags) . This place is top notch. We'll definitely be back. The food is excellent and the employees are stars. Thanks for a fun evening! read more

The food was so good. I forgot to take a picture of it. I'm not one for corporate food that much and I assumed with inflation and diesel fuel prices that the quality or the portions would've went down they did not. They just raise the prices a little bit which people will deal with much better than getting crappy food or less of a portion. Thank you for Carrabba's and you responded the correct way to inflation just raise the prices. We don't care the service was good only a 20 minute wait on Friday at 6:30 so that's good. The food came real fast. The ambience is a little upgraded for this Carrabba's. It looks more stylish trendy whereas some Carrabba's kinda look like you're eating at your grandma's house I had the fettuccine Carrabba, which is basically fettuccine Alfredo and it was just as good as I remember. The bread with the oil and herbs was amazing and we ordered extra loaves twice. Food came out fast, which was really good cause the place was packed and they've changed the menu a lot there's a lot more going on there. This Carrabba's has .5 more stars than the other Carrabba's around and I see why I expected to be disappointed and I was blown away. It was better than I remember so if you're in the area swing by this Carrabba's and get you some food ;you can't go wrong with Italian. read more

Our third outstanding takeout order. I wanted to wait till we had enough experience that I felt comfortable posting this review and after last night, I do. First, they have gotten our orders completely correct including some minor customization. We order party platters of various pasta dishes and have been quite surprised how carefully prepared and delicious they all have been. Wish I had taken some pics. Also the portions have been quite generous with one small exception. And they more than made up for it this last time. Not only do they get the details right, they also come right out the moment you pull into one of the reserved "pick up" spaces. Once verified the food came right out and was very carefully placed in our car. All without asking. And the server was so very warm and pleasant. Made her happy with little $. Next up, a dine in experience with pics. read more

Portions for our entree are a lot smaller and for almost $30 for Chicken Marsala and Fettuccine Alfredo(as our side which is an upcharge) the portion size and the price doesn't match. def many other restaurants to find this dish elsewhere. Didn't take a pic of the entree this time, but compared to the old pics, there's def a difference. They are also a bit heavy on the salt and pepper. The sauce for the marsala was quite salty and last time our soup had so much pepper that we couldn't eat it. Really loved their chicken marsala here, but for those reasons, I'll have to skip it here. Server was fine and we liked sitting in the booths closer to the bar. There's no room for groups on that side, so it wasn't as loud as the other side. read more

Great happy hour service. Great time with my sons. Bar service was fantastic and Matthew was warm and friendly. Spinach arancini was tasty and interesting. New menu item was the carbonara was flavorful and delicious. Salmon came out raw and had to be remade. However it is a huge portion enough for several people. Apple crostada also new was warm and tantalizing. Green bean side was blah and the beans were overcooked and dry. Otherwise we had an enjoyable evening in a beautiful inviting space. read more

First time in this location and was pleasantly experience. Food was good, ambience was good we have a little issue with the side that came out cold but they replaced it immediately. They have a great selection for cocktails and wine read more

This is my favorite place to order takeout from, I have ordered from this location multiple times and the food is always so good! I recently tried their Tuscan filet and shrimp Alfredo and it was delicious. The steak was cooked perfect and was so tender. I also love that they include fresh bread with herbs with every order. Everything is always spot on, hot and fresh. Portion sizes are also great! read more

Haven't been to Carrabba's in years, but wanted to try it out again because we were craving Italian foo. The experience was amazing, beginning with a free sample of wine and fresh bread with oil and herbs. The server Sienna was very knowledgeable and she gave great recommendations. We had meatballs as an appetizer and for our main dishes we had Chicken Parmesan and the Fettuccine Carrabba which came with soup or salad. We will be back because on top of all of that, the restaurant itself was very nice and private and was a lovely spot to have a date night! The prices were VERY reasonable and we really appreciate everything! read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - Italian Near Me - Lutz, Florida

I came. I saw. I con-pasta-ed. Carrabba's really said "olive you" and meant it. The bread showed up warm and ready to loaf around, and the dipping oil? I was pressed to find anything butter. My pasta was so good it had me feeling saucy, and the chicken was grill-iant in every bite. By the time dessert rolled around, I cannoli imagine being any happier. I came for dinner but stayed for the crost-ada-best dessert. I'm just living my crust life. If loving carbs is wrong, I don't wanna be al dente about it. 10/10 -- I'll be back for more pasta-tive vibes. Don't walk - run for the new Spring menu items. read more

Pleasantly surprised by this amazing service experience at Carrabba's! The location is right across the highway from the tampa premium outlets. From the moment we arrived, we were treated more nicely than some very high end restaurants. We had checked in to the online waitlist prior to arrival, and were seated right away- even on a busy Saturday night. They offered free samplings of a wine to begin. When my mom ordered a glass of wine, they came out with a complimentary charcuterie board on top of the wine glass! How cute! We opted for their prefix dinner for 2 "Dinner & Dolce", which is quite the deal at $45 for 2 people. The chicken Marsala was delicious with complex flavors and excellent mushrooms. We also loved the chocolate option for dessert. Overall, would highly recommend this location for any date night, or family dinner! read more

I visited Carrabas Wesley Chapel tonight for my birthday. There was no wait time with no reservations for me and my family. My service was excellent, our server , the floor staff everyone was so professional and polite. Our chicken Marsala was divine and I was so shocked to have six service members bring a cake and sing when they were all so busy on a Saturday evening. I would recommend this location to anyone looking for place for a family dinner or special occasion. Thank You Carrabas for your ability to deliver a flawless and impeccable experience Even during a Saturday rush. read more

We don't typically go to Carrabas But they had a whiskey dinner, so we had to go. Now we are hooked. Every Carrabba's has a monthly menu, and so far we have always left full, learn about the wine (or bourbon) and great food and service! We have been to WC location and Carrollwood for this monthly food and wine escape This Carrabb in WC is brand new, the owner/operator is so nice and the staff are kind and welcoming. Food tonight scallops Ravioli with osso bucco Steak and Rainbow cake! Wine pairings were perfect! Scallops and steak were the highlight read more

I have dined in numerous times before and never had an issue. I ordered a $40 take out meal last night which was everything shown on the takeout label. The salmon appeared to be a little undercooked so I had to microwave it to cook it a little longer and I also was missing my Caesar salad which also appeared to be the only thing not highlighted as well. All in all, my takeout experience was disappointing. read more

Server was too busy for us... multiple tables led to bad service. Trio special came out with cold chicken and a wet paper napkin laid on the plate in very poor taste - told it was to prevent bowl from sliding. Made our stomach slide. Finally to make matters worse - while moving food to a carry out box - a hair was found. Not a positive experience read more

Server was overworked. They sat a 12+ top right next our 8 person part with the same server with us sitting down under 5 min of each other. The server made no attempt to ask about our food and had no assistance on clearing plates. 4/8 entrees were cold and 1 came out incorrectly. Wish there was any management to assist in this or to check on their customers. Would avoid eating here further unfortunately. read more

Taylor was training someone but she was still amazing- pleasant and professional. I have low expectations when I go to chain restaurants but they exceeded my expectations. All of the entrees were delicious. I had the chicken Bryan which had goat cheese and sun dried tomatoes with lemon butter and my husband got the linguini positano which looked like it was growing as he ate it. My parents are vegan and they were plenty of options for them too. read more

Located at the Tampa outlet mall, it's newly built so it's nice and clean. We were able to call ahead but ended up waiting 30 mins on a Saturday evening. When seated we started with the appetizer special with calamari, stuffed mushrooms and mozzarella sticks. I do love mushrooms but I wasn't a fan of these mushrooms. For my main meal I had the Mezzaluna: Half-moon ravioli with chicken, ricotta, romano and spinach in our tomato cream sauce. This was delicious and wow the sauce, I couldn't get enough! I soaked it all up with the bread. My friend had the chicken parmigiana with fettuccine alfredo, very large portion of food, We had plenty of food and two boxes were needed to bring the leftovers home. They have a nice large dining room and a long bar with TVs on the end. Hours Monday-Thursday 11AM-10PM, Friday and Saturday 11AM-11PM and Sunday 11AM-9PM. read more

I had such an amazing experience at Carrabba's Italian Grill in Wesley Chapel! I placed a pick-up order, but unfortunately, my car broke down and I knew I was going to be very late. I called to let them know about the situation, and when I finally arrived--over an hour and a half later--I was completely blown away. Instead of handing me cold food, they re-fired my entire order so it would be fresh, hot, and delicious when I got there. That kind of service is rare these days! The food was absolutely outstanding, and the thoughtfulness of the staff turned a stressful night into a stressful but deliciously satisfying night. Carrabba's Wesley Chapel has earned my loyalty! read more

It has been nearly a year since I have been here and I realised I have been missing out. I came here with the family and I got the Johnny Trio for myself which was excellent.

I am looking forward to coming back here again quickly and exploring the rest of the menu. read more

Unfortunately this happen last night. Cut my lip and lightly chipped by back tooth on this zip tie in the chicken soup.

Food and service was amazing. Was so inspired by the dishes that I went home and tried to recreate it on my own.

Invited by a friend for lunch my husband and I met here. I ordered the three menu deal. I had the mother's chicken soup a Caesar salad and what was described as shrimp scampi. My husband had a steak sandwich with fries when asked if he wanted soup as well he said yes when we got the bill the bowl of soup was seven dollars. Now it's cold outside so you would think that the waitress would come over and say is everything OK? Both soups were cold, and since we were never checked we could not send it back .Our friends lunch was mediocre at best as well. Her soup was cold. The shrimp scampi came in a sludge sauce. Nothing I've ever seen before incredibly salty as well. The toast along with the shrimp scampi was just laden with salt and some sort of Italian spice. The waitress was hurried, even though it was not busy at all for lunch at 2:30 in the afternoon. I would not return. I was not happy at all with the level of service nor the items. Price was right parking was good. That's all I got from this place. read more

This is our fourth visit to this location. Last visit u less, like tonight another couple invited us to join them there. We were seated, not very busy until later into time we were there. Short on servers. Linda was working very hard to take care of all the guests. Salads and soups brought out quickly. Table never cleared after we finished them and waited for entrees. When entrees arrived, server had to also take the dishes away as handing us our entrees rather awkward. Husbands steak was overdone and stringy. Rest of the food was very good. We got a Pumpkin Bread Pudding to go. Said goodbye to our friends. When we got home and we're going to eat our dessert it was a joke. It looked sad. Burned on top. Dry and no salted caramel sauce was included. What a disappointment. We added some butter and cinnamon to try to help the taste. Threw it away. Wasted almost $10. read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - Two pork chops with Marsala sauce with mushrooms. - Italian Near Me - Lutz, Florida

So why do a review for a big chain like Carraba's's? One, it was a neat, smaller Carrabbas layout with a much more modern twist. I had no idea they had sandwiches for lunch lol. And they were delicious! We split two sandwiches, one being a chicken Parmesan with a side salad, and the other being chicken Caprese sandwich with broccoli. Overall probably one of my better Carraba's's experiences. The place was new, clean, modern, and the staff was very friendly and knowledgeable. Again, I cannot say enough about those sandwiches, exceeded my expectations by a lot. It was just a chance that we stopped in to grab something at lunchtime. But I will go and get those sandwiches again for sure! read more
