- BPBeverly Perez3 days ago5.0Carrabba’s Italian Grill is always a great choice! 👍 The fettuccine Alfredo is a crowd favorite, and the branzino paired perfectly with a nice wine. The Sicilian soup and tiramisu are always delicious, too. Consistently great food and a wonderful dining experience! 🍝🍷✨

- DDDismanNov 16, 20252.0My wife has a severe peanut allergy and we have been coming to this restaurant for many, many years. We even belong to the loyalty program, always a safe haven for us. They just came out with a new winter menu that has a peanut dessert! Blows me away they would bring that into the restaurant knowing that so many people have this deadly allergy. So sorry to say we will not be visiting this establishment anymore!!
- JGJohn GaltNov 2, 20255.0We had dinner at Carrabba’s tonight — and it was absolutely wonderful! The lentil soup was incredibly tasty and full of flavor, one of the best I’ve ever had. My chicken pasta was creamy and perfectly cooked, and Vika’s shrimp & scallop pasta had a rich sauce with a touch of spice and fresh basil. The atmosphere was cozy, the staff super friendly, and the whole place felt warm and welcoming. Thank you for a great evening — we’ll definitely be back! ❤️
- GTGERALD TURNEROct 30, 20252.0We have been diners from the very beginning. Even dined in the previous restaurant at this site. Carrabba's Caesar was the best we have had anywhere. Not this visit. Too little garlic or lemon? Bland. No best of the best, wonderful mussels available. The extra charge fettuccine alfredo also bland(little sauce) Service nothing special. Lots of extra charges for things that used to be included. The good. The filet was well cooked and delicious. We hope that this was a one off. We would miss Sarasota Carrabba's. We have found different locations to have varying experiences.
