    As always - food was amazing, staff friendly, service great. It was a very busy nite, but we barely waited at all. Jasmine was incredible! I don’t know where she gets her energy; she just flew around the place almost effortlessly taking care of everyone AND with such a pleasant way about her, as though she was entertaining in her own home. What a wonderful experience!

    Visited on a very busy Wednesday evening. We arrived around 6:15pm and since we didn't have a reservation we had to wait about 20 minutes for a table to open. Since we had a need for an accessible table that could accommodate a wheelchair the wait was longer than expected. The staff at this location is super nice and helpful. Maria and the tall gentlemen (reddish hair didn't catch his name) at the hostess desk were both super efficient. As was one of the girls who brought out our entrees, I think her name was Danielle. Everything was delightful in terms of service, atmosphere and food. The combo appetizer with an assortment of Hand-breaded Calamari, Mozzarella Marinara and Bruschette Caprese was delicious. The soups were amazing as was the Spaghetti and Linguine Positano dishes. There was a good vibe amongst the servers who all helped each other. Not sure if they split up tips. The guides on the bills base tips off of totals not subs, but regardless we based on level of service which was excellent. Family of three dinner was decent value with pricing appropriate and large portions served. The restaurant itself gets 4 stars but Maria gets the extra star and is the sole reason one should visit.

    We just had dinner at Carrabbas Per sons request. I called ahead the day before to make a reservation because this time of the year it can be difficult to get in. Well, they don't take reservations but do take call ahead. So I left my info and advised the time I wanted for the next evening. So the next evening , as we were getting ready to leave I called airhead and referred to my conversation the night before and said we were on our way. Upon arrival. Parking is not that great. I just got lucky because someone was pulling out of a perfect spot. We went in and they said it was Going to be about 15 minutes . Perect ,I was early anyways. Just as they were calling my name my son and his family walked in the door! Its my lucky night! . We were seated at a nice booth and we were served . We got an appetizer and while waiting had some nice warm bread. The gentleman serving us the bread seemed a little upright and irritated when I asked for some sprinkle cheese for the oil and Italian spices and I advised we'd like another basket of bread. That God that was the last we had to deal with him. Our server was extremely pleasant and we wanted for nothing. She was there with drinks ,food, deserts to go containers. She was on top of it! The food was good. My chicken was a little tough for chicken marmalade. I believe it should've been sounded and it definitely was not, but it was tasty . Everyone was happy with their dinners. No complaints. All and all it was a good night! Just as we walked out , the clock on the main building in the square was chiming . That was really nice to hear.

    ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ We had such a great experience thanks to our waiter, Nick! Even though the restaurant was clearly short-staffed, he handled every table with ease and such genuine gratitude. You could tell he truly cared about giving everyone a great experience. Nick still took his time with us, was incredibly personable and friendly, and didn’t miss a single detail. He double-checked that everything was perfect and made sure we had everything we needed without ever making us feel rushed. Outstanding service Nick is an absolute gem and deserves all the praise!

    We went out for a date night and had less than an hour before closing. The restaurant was almost empty, maybe two other people at the bar and we sat at a small table in the bar area instead of at the bar. We ordered the stuffed meatballs as an appetizer, and I have to say this is one of my new fav's for sure! They were absolutely amazing, full of flavor. It was a new dish, at least I had never heard of a stuffed meatball, paired with a classic Italian favorite, marinara sauce and melted mozzarella cheese. A, little fresh-graded parmesan, to top it off ! The server and staff didn't seem to mind that we were late dinners either, they gave us great attention and service.
