Extremely disappointed paid $22 for chicken Alfredo with gluten free noodles. The sauce was almost non existent and the little there was was watery, the noodles were overcooked and turned to mush, the chicken was overcooked and there was almost no mushrooms. The lobster ravioli had almost no sauce and a weird taste and texture. The sausage and lentil soup was very good though. I paid over 40 for two entrees that were not good! We will not be back and I do not recommend. read more

This location has got to be the ABSOLUTE WORST! I, normally, do not have any issues but the last two visits have not been that experience. On the first visit (6/15/2020), I utilized their online system and ordered my "normal" items (requesting certain things be removed alerting of a food allergy). My family received our meal incorrectly. When I called and spoke with the manager (hispanic male); he became defensive until he was able to see that the error fell on the store location's inability to read the order. It was THEN where my order was completely refunded. So, I figured I'd give this location a second chance (I get it, we're human and make mistakes). The next visit was the WORST (and my last, by the way). I ordered my items, business, as usual, requesting the same items removed due to allergies within the home. I received a text message alerting me that my order would be delivered within a specific time frame. After 10min of not receiving my order, I notified this location that I haven't received my order and notified the same (Hispanic male) that the building entrance code was off per my mistake. He assured me that he would notify the associate delivering our order. Moments later, he called me back stating that the order had been delivered. I informed him that we haven't received our order and reverified the information. He reluctantly offered to send the order back out stating "Well, someone got the order". Great, way to go on the Customer Service piece - in which I have no reason to lie about noodles, meat, and sauce - that, eventually was delivered after waiting for a total of 2hrs and STILL was delivered incorrectly; with the same items that I requested NOT be placed on there due to the food allergy. After calling the location 3 times to inform them, we find it convenient that our calls weren't taken. So much for tipping. P.S. You can keep the cheesecake next time, we prefer the customer service/empathy instead. read more

Pretty good lunch here. There's several new menu items to choose from. Some people get snotty about chain restaurants, but we'd be happy with the food we had for lunch here at any restaurant. The good: Shrimp Risotto- shrimp cooked perfectly. The risotto creamy and topped with fresh basil. I tore up the basil & it added a brightness. The Scallops & shrimp. He loved it. I was allowed to taste a bite of scallop. Perfection. The kids food came out first. The less than: The house salad left a lot to be desired. Lettuce, a ton of shredded carrots and two olives drenched in some sort of creamy dressing. I'd have preferred a vinaigrette on the side. The kids tiny pizzas were $5.50 each. Severely overpriced, but at least they weren't previously frozen. For that price they need a fruit cup & dessert to come with the meal in order for us to feel better about it. Our waiter was good. He kept bringing new drinks & in fact took off with my half finished one complete with straw. He was more attentive to my husband than me. read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - House salad - Italian Near Me - Murfreesboro, Tennessee

See all

Amazing staff and food! I've been going to Carrabba's at various locations for 17 years and this was my first time in Murfreesboro. Our server, Kayla, was on top of her game and handled everything with a warm personality and winning smile! She was wonderful and patient with my two young children who wanted all of her attention! I couldn't have asked for a more charming person to wait on us so efficiently. The owner, Amber, is one in a million. Most restaurant owners I've seen usually walk around in a suit and tie while they make rounds to ensure that everyone knows who's in charge. Amber came to our table wearing an apron and a genuine smile, which impressed me more than an Armani jacket. After our brief chat I realized why her team was so hardworking and happy; she's inspiring! Anyone can see that this owner loves her job so much that it's infectious to the rest of her staff. When she spoke with other patrons they were instantly happy to see her, which tipped me off that there were many regulars this evening (a sign of consistently good service). I was planning on taking photos of the lovely plating, but the food didn't last long enough for me to get out my camera! The ribeye my husband and I ordered was mouthwateringly juicy, the stuffed mushrooms were... For Heaven's sake, everyone needs to try those... and my daughter's Sogno Di Cioccolata was addictive! I could seriously go on for pages about how perfect this experience was, but eating there would say more than I possibly could! Go check them out and take your time to really enjoy the beautifully blended flavors of each course, and SAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT! read more

From the outside it looks like just a normal sit down restaurant, but when you get in there it's so much different than I would expect. Not to mention the service I got was great all the people are kind and I have no problems with them. And not just rota but the food is great too it's all tasty and fresh. If you had to choose a place to go to I would definitely recommend here. read more

So to begin the host was polite and seated us promptly. Then (at least) 20 minutes went by and nobody came to offer us as much as water or a drink. We had to flag someone down and ask where our server was. It wasn't that busy at all for a Friday evening. Place was maybe 40% capacity, if that? There was just some confusion with the serving I guess. All the tables around us were being attended to, but not ours. So we finally got someone to help us. Bread was delayed because of some kinds of issues with the oven. So we ordered an appetizer and drinks. The mozzarella was actually good, as was the lentil soup and caprese salad that my girlfriend ordered. The pasta though? My girlfriend had Chicken Bryan with fettuccine alfredo. I tried it. Pasta was overcooked and it just wasn't good. I mean it really wasn't actually fettuccine even, now that I think about it. They were noodles. Almost like egg noodles. Anyway it wasn't good. I offered to make her real fettuccine alfredo sometime. I can do so much better than that. I ordered shrimp and scallops with linguini in ala vodka sauce. The scallops were mushy. Scallops should never be cooked like that. Bleh. I cook sea scallops all the time so I know what good sea scallops are and these were terrible. I'm pretty sure someone that doesn't know what they are doing was trying to cook them from frozen state. The ala vodka sauce was flavorless. Shrimp was OK but honestly you have to go out of your way to screw up shrimp. We were offered free dessert for our time waiting but in the end I didn't want to give them the chance to screw that up too. Oh yeah... then we got the bread. LOL. Seriously disappointed. I'd always heard good things about Carrabba's so my expectations were definitely far from met with this experience. read more

Amazing experience tonight! The food was good our server was better! They messed up one of the meals in the kitchen but kept us informed on the process and made it correctly. We will definitely be back! I wisH I could remember our servers name but he took my good natured bantering in stride. read more

The food never disappoints but tonight we had the best service ever!!! Abby was our service and she was on point in every way! Timing, attitude, service with a smile, etc! She was hands down the best server we've ever had anywhere!!! read more

We had Cory as our server and he was nothing short of amazing. He is genuine and very attentive. We had the mussels to start and they were absolutely delicious. Followed by the chicken sicilian soup (a must get) with our meals that were very delicious. The manager, Kevin came by and made sure we had a great experience. We will definitely be back! read more

Today we decided to celebrate my sons birthday ( at his favorite restaurant ). Our experience was very unfortunate, the host was very sweet and seated us immediately since the restaurant was empty. We sat down and look over to the window and all we get to see is dead bugs and spider webs (who would like to have dinner staring at dead bugs and spider webs). We asked the waitress if we can be moved since it was dirty, waitress processed to say let me get the host over here, she goes to the host and from afar you see her waving her arms and rolling her eyes as if we asked for to much! She comes back and takes us to a different table and when we sat down there was another dead bug ON THE TABLE not the window ledge but the TABLE we tell her and we point at it for her to look at it and she then flips out rolled her eyes and with attitude she then processed to say in a very sarcastic voice " IS THIS TABLE GOOD FOR YOU"!! Wow , REALLY !! Mind you the restaurant is EMPTY, times like this with no customer you figure they would clean and make sure to give out standing customers service to hopefully not loose there job and keep busy. We love Carrabba's but today really made us rethink this. Hopefully management will take control and make the correct changes so that this restaurant doesn't end up closing the doors for good and leaving a lot of people with out jobs. read more

Great service n tasty food hot fresh bread martini wow love our ladies night out there

Carrabba's is one of my favorite restaurants. I fell in love with their shrimp scampi years ago. The bread and olive oil dipping sauce is delicious. They have a great happy hour with drink and appetizer specials. Service is always good. read more

Ordered the shrimp linguine to go due to covid. $20 meal came with a whopping 4 medium shrimp. It's like they knew you wouldn't look at it until you got home so let's just skimp out on the food. read more

I ordered tiramisu. I had it once before from here a long time ago so I knew what to expect. Or at least I thought I did. I was extremely disappointed when I got it. The coffee liqueur and rum they soak it with was way too overpowering. The bottom half of the dessert was nothing but mush and tasted too strong. The serving size was very underwhelming. Years ago when I ordered it the piece was large enough for three people to share but now it's barely enough for one. Ridiculous for nine dollars. I could've gotten a much better tasting dessert somewhere else for half that price. I won't be eating there again. read more

I love their Calamari. Just the right texture. Nice atmosphere and the staff are very friendly read more

Mitch our server was great! He stayed on top.of our order and made sure all was correct! Food was excellent! Thanks mitch!

Stopped in for lunch. Service was exceptional. Speedy courteous waitress. One of my new favorite Italian places to eat.

Food is kinda mediocre, server was great and we mentioned that we had a 25% off coupon, manager lectured us on how the "company" only allows 20%. She needs a few classes on how to treat customers. read more

Terrible service and food today. My son and I went here for a late lunch for my bday. It took forever to get waited on. The were not crowded. My salad was drenched in dressing and my meatballs were lukewarm. He did not care for his chicken Parmesan sandwich. Our waitress was sitting at the bar on her phone when I went to the bathroom and came out. I had to ask the hostess for out check. Shocked to see our 2 peach iced teas were $7.98!! We will not be back. read more

Sat at the bar on a Tuesday evening Ordered a cup of soup Bread came 10 mins after i finished Bartender hardly spoke to me or the other two customers at the bar My order was wrong had to wait 10 mins for missing food while entree became cold Then given a check before i finished Did not get an apology or a thank you for dining with us This really is the poorest Carrabba's i have visited Management Either retrain your bar staff or replace them absolutely no concept of customer service read more

Completely amazed by the food flavor and the knowledgeable staff. OK so first off I'm not the type of person who always tips but I left over a $20 tip after having dinner at this restaurant. The food was absolutely amazing and I couldn't believe the service I received at this place. The waiter was very knowledgeable about the menu, the food and even how some other restaurants prepare some of their dishes as he was able to make a very accurate example. Service was very prompt and no one hovered over you like in some other places. I can't wait to go back there again. The manager was even nice enough to comp my dessert when she found out I had never been to Carrabba's before. read more

I have eaten there twice recently - once takeout and once onsite. The takeout order was all screwed up and missing items that I requested. The on-site experience was not much better. I asked my waiter, Peyton, for slices of lemon for my ice water. He brought them on a small plate and when he attempted to set the plate on the table - he somehow flipped it and the individual slices scattered all over the table. He said he would bring more - which he did, but never cleaned up what had scattered. He came back to the table several times to check on me. When I left - the mess was still on the table. I don't know what kind of training these kids go thru - but this location will not be getting anymore of my budi UPDATE 2 months later - I reached out as invited and have never heard back read more

We just left the restaurant and we are all very pleased with the service. Our waiter Parker B was awesome! With a group of 10, (my moms birthday luncheon)he never made any mistake with our orders. The best service ever! The next time we come, I will make sure to ask for Patrick. read more

Ok. Hospital stay and on the 3rd night. Wanted something good. Right across the street. Ordered online, smooth. Ready in 15 mins - pulled in (less than .3 mile from hospital). All food was cold. Not like kinda cold or cooling after being cooked. Flat out cold. I threw it all away except for my Caesar salad. Mushrooms yucky cold. Sirloin steak - cold to the touch. Pasta with pompadour sauce. Ice cold. No idea how they got this meal so cold unless they say it in the freezer for a giggle. It'll be a long time before I spend $$ here especially when there are a dozen other places within a stones throw. read more

We dined at Carraba's yesterday for a birthday celebration. Out waiter, Isaiah, was very informative of the dishes and ingredients and was able to answer all our questions. He was very attentive to our needs and was able to meet them in a timely manner. His personality was A-1 and by the end of our meal it's like he was part of our family. In this day and age he was a breath of fresh air as a server. Isaiah you are the best!!! read more

Ordered Caesar salad entree with wood grilled shrimp. Got 4 shrimp. Not worth $16.99.

We went on Sunday, Father's Day we had a reservation so no wait. When the food arrived it looked so unappealing. Just thrown on the plate. When we tasted the mashed potatoes they tasted like warmed over from the day before. When we told our server he went and brought new servings of potatoes. These were a little better. The meal was 20 dollars not worth the price. Small breast of chicken with 3 mushrooms yes I counted it looked so bad. Would not recommend this place for anyone. The salad was just sad. The blackberry sangria was wonderful though. read more

It's a chain, and I am sure there are crappy versions of this somewhere, and I am not a fan of chains. But....... The food here is legit. Grace, the operator, operates. Staff is well trained, food Is always hot, fresh and consistent. We live three blocks from this one, so have sampled a good part of the menu. Go-to items are the tag pic pac (so simple, so good, every time), the Mahi Wulfe, lasagne and mezzaluna. Chicken park was had on this occasion, and it was excellent. Also home to my favorite dessert, the Dessert Rosa. Whipped creme, butter cake, pastry creme with pineapple and strawberries. Maybe it's just me....my birthday cake as a kid was a banana split cake and this is similar. And addictive. read more

We have been coming to this restaurant for a very long time and it is the best Italian restaurant in town. Every time we come here we are treated with respect and the people are fun. The food is insanely good and so is the desert. Today we came in and there was a wait and we were ok to wait. A massive group of kids were here on a bus. After being seated and waiting for 45 minutes for our food the manager came over and explained it's unacceptable and that our food would be free. I respect the decision and that's why we continue to come back. read more

A group of us went to the Carrabas in Murfreesboro, got seated very quickly and the food was very good, but the absolute best part of the evening was having an experienced wait person. Niki was pleasant and attentive , she did not hand us our plates or reach over us. The best server we've had in years. Thank you Niki and thank you Carrabas for training your wait staff above and beyond what is just satisfactory. read more

By far one of the worst Carrabbas in middle Tennessee. Waiters just did not care they saw us and walked past us with empty drinks no bread when finally brought food out the food was dry and over cooked read more

I'm stuck putting a 1 star just because I'm unable to give it a negative star. We have dinned in Carrabba's before in south Florida and never ever complained and much less left a bad review. My family and I have had nothing but great experiences with them in Florida so we thought it would be the same in Murfreesboro TN. Well boy was I wrong!!!! The hostess was a nice girl but as soon as we in a booth table we looked at the window and there were spider webs all around the window frame with mosquitos and bugs dead all around, not only that the table looked dusty and not cleaned correctly. We asked if we could please be seated in a different table and the server ( a woman by the name of Alex) looked bothered by us requesting to please be seated at another table because of the cleanliness of the one we were in and she then proceeded to move us to another table. Well the other table wasn't any better with the difference the new table had a dead roach on top flipped upside down ‍. We showed the waitress (Alex) and she rolled her eyes at us turned around and started waiving her arms in a displeased way telling the hostess we didn't like that table either. She returned with windex and a sheet of paper towel to clean table and was clearly upset and talking to herself. We told her we were sorry we don't like to complain but we couldn't eat with dead bugs and spider webs all over. She looked very upset and ignored us. Then she turned around and told us "Then is this table good for you? " - in a sarcastic tone. We then told her not to worry about we won't be dinning there anymore. She turned around and told my husband " I'm not the one with an attitude "!!! We didn't bother to stay and argue with her. I asked the hostess for the managers name she didn't give me the name. So instead I contacted the corporate office to make sure they know this exact location is giving the Carrabba's name a bad name. Very sad and displeased with this location. I will never be stepping foot in this location again. Rude waitress and filthy location. If this is how it looked at a customers eye sight I can imagine how the kitchen is ‍. read more

I had my hopes set high and I'm sad to say I was completely let down. I'd give this place 1 star but our server was nice. The food tasted so cheap. My husbands salmon was over cooked and my margarita was so sweet I had to send it back. We never had a manager come to the table or else I would have told them about the terrible food. I can't believe that our bill for 4 of us came out to $90. I don't mind to spend the money if my experience is great. Unfortunately, we will not be returning. read more

Today we had the stake Marsala and crab cakes, OMG it was amazing. And to that their Tiramisu is to to die for. Add to the excellent service from AJ and you have the perfect meal. This is our third amazing meal here. read more

My boyfriend and I went one night and the pipes had burst so they gave us a coupon to come back. A week or two later we came back and they were very slow, maybe 4 or 5 tables in the whole place while there was about 12 servers. We sat at our table for 22 minutes and nobody ever came to even get us drinks. The servers were standing around hanging out and talking close to our table but nobody ever even came to say anything to us. The manager kept looking at us, but never said anything and then just watched us get up and walk out and still didn't say anything. Very weird. Two trips to Carrabba's and neither time did we get to eat. read more

Good service and good food. Can't beat it. Busted at 3:00 pm which is typically shift change time and at some places you are ignored. Not here. They took great care of us and we got our food quickly. read more

First our waiter was out of it. Had to ask for everything. Even the oil for the spices to dip bread in to up to silverware. Then we had the privilege of sitting next to the open kitchen which I thought was neat. Until we found out it was the wait staffs break room. Heard the manager with short curly brown hair talk about all her business loudly. From who needed to be cut to who closes to how bad the day had been. Very unprofessional. What really sold me is how the manager & a few staff talked about their toes & how bad they hurt. One even removed her shoe to proof it. It almost became comical at the end how much of a train wreck this experience was. Food wasn't great either. read more
