I had never been to a Carrabba's. The filet was on point. The sides were very adequate. And the service was amazing. Thanks for the experience. read more

Very Disappointed. I ordered a special, Linguine Florentine, at the Carrabba's in Portage, MI.The photo showed lots of tomatoes and spinach. When it came there was little spinach and a few, meager bits of tomato. All the tomato pieces put together would have been less than one grape tomato. I complained and the waiter offered to get me more tomato. What the kitchen sent back was a very small amount of tomato, perhaps equal to 2 grape tomatoes. This happened when tomatoes are in peak season here in Michigan!! Sigh. read more

I must admit, I have eaten here two days in a row. It has to be good to show up two days in a row! I tried something new that they have on the menu which is the Branzino. It's a light fish and it's delicious. I had it without the dairy and it was awesome. The service from Becca is amazing! The service from Jill on the second day was good as well. It is always welcoming when you come in which I appreciate. It's not overly quiet or too loud. Now I gotta give it a break because I gotta watch my calories ;-) read more

We were not even able to eat. We made an online reservation at 5, for 7:30pm. We were called at 7:35 asking if we were still coming. We said yes but we can't park. The receptionist said okay. We finally got in the door and gave our name and we were told that there is still an hour wait. Because apparently when you make the reservation it is not the actual time you'll be seated. We are from Indiana. This is the location in Michigan. Maybe we do reservations differently back home. But I don't think it was acceptable and will not recommending to anyone. read more

It was in the top five meals I ever had .there was a brasserie in Portland in the 90s that was better but it was surprisingly authentic and quite good..an amazing experience.....the service was excellent...the waiter/bartender handled multiple tasks surprisingly well....just quite an enjoyable time...which is important right now...the world is hard enough.... read more

Online ordering & delivery to Kalamazoo allowed for a nice night in Food was fantastic! Packaged with everything we needed. Dishes clearly labeled We were given everything we needed, even spices & olive oil for the bread Delivery arrived as estimated read more

Our favorite restaurant in the Portage/Kalamazoo area!! We especially look forward to the bread that is served. read more

Service was quick, but could have been better. Auctioning on a three top? Server was way overloaded with tables. My entree, unfortunately, had a flaw. I called a runner over who told me to wait a minute. Ten minutes later a new entree was brought out very kindly. However, nobody asked what the problem was, so the new dish had the same problem. I shut up lol. Better communication!!!! read more

So Carrabba's only does same day reservations and I wanted to get in early for Valentines Day and made reservations for 6:30 pm. When we arrived we were told by the hostess that it would be a 2 hr wait. We decided to sit at the bar instead. Talking to the couple next to us they were leaving having their meal comped because of numerous mistakes in the order. After ordering and waiting for an hour for the food, my fiancée's meal was cold and mine was so salty that I couldn't eat it. We left after paying $71.00 for a terrible experience. read more

We came in at 4pm. Got our water then waited forever for our waiter to take our order. Then when we got our food my lobster ravioli cream sauce was watery and cold. My husband's lasangna was ive cold in the center. They teplaced it but my husband's lasagna was half the size abd nothing but riccata cheese ans sauce not one noodle. It was an awful meal to sat the least. read more

I visited the Carrabba's in Mishawaka IN today and have to take a minute to say that this was one of the best lunches my husband and I have had in forever. We love Carrabba's food so that was on point like normal but it really was our waitress that make this experience so perfect. Her name is Toby and I highly recommend that you ask for her when you dine there. She is knowledgeable, professional and very nice. She took her time with my husband (who can never decide what he wants lol) she offered suggestions to us both and we actually tired something new. Which was awesome by the way. Well done Carrabbas Mishawaka, keep hiring people like Toby and we will keep coming back. Planning to return next Saturday for our date night. Hope Toby is there. read more

Dined at Carrabba's on July 16, 2025 with two family members. Entrees were grilled salmon, ribeye, and spaghetti with meat sauce. Service was exceptional. Food was served in large portions and was good, but not exceptional. The biggest issue I have is the smell. Every time I have eaten at this Carrabba's, the smell hits your nose the minute you enter. I have tried to think of a descriptive term and the only one I can think of is the inside of a trash container that has held food leftovers for several days. read more

This location is clean, the service is great and the food and drinks never disappoint. Today my sister and I went for appetizers and I had my usual prickly pear drink (YUM). We opted to sit at the bar and the service was quick. If you are looking for a place with a chill vibe with good food and drinks think about this location read more

I had to try Carrabba's Italian Grill. Sure, they are a chain restaurant. But, there are none if California. I've heard good things about them, so I had to try it out. Our meal was takeout since my wife does not like "dining in" anymore. Ordering was a piece of cake on their website. We eventually ordered a pork chop and their linguine pescatore. The only thing that would've made the online ordering better was a good coupon code. Unfortunately, I couldn't find one. This Carrabba's was about 20 minutes from my dumpy hotel. Picking up my food was kind of easy as they had parking spots for curbside pickup. The curbside pickup staff were surprised that I got out of the car to pick up my order and told me that most curbside customers prefer to stay in their cars. After driving 9 hours that day with a time change, I was in no mood for staying in my car and needed out. The food was excellent. The pork chops were cooked perfectly. They were seasoned well. The Sicilian butter gave the chops a great flavor. Both my wife and I wanted more. The linguine pescatore was filled with mussels, shrimp and scallop in a spicy marinara sauce. The sauce gave it a nice kick. Carrabba's was a good visit for us. Easy to order. Good food. Will have to try it again one day when I escape out of California again. read more

Summer was our server and she was on top of everything, even serving multiple tables besides my husband and myself!

Great option for an incredible Italian meal. Upon arrival I was meet with a smile and an accommodating hostess. Immediately was asked for beverage orders and everyone that came to our table truly understood top notch customer service. Joanna took our orders and was very helpful. If your hungry it is the place to go. We actually had extra to take home for another meal. Their 10.00 take ho.e meal is also an amazing value especially with people on a budget. Will go again and again read more

Food is always great! we got the chicken Marsala with mashed potatoes and house salad. we always enjoy the warm bread with olive oil and seasoning. we got takeout so it was the family bundle. service is always great and prompt. when we do visit for a sit down, the ambiance is always great! my whole family loves Carrabba's! read more

I ordered through DoorDash, which told me an hour to one hour and 10 minutes. They took so long that a DoorDash driver left another one came they almost left again. All I ordered was a side salad and bruschetta. The bruschetta was horrible and cold. read more

The food was great. My server Becca was amazing! Checked up on us the perfect amount of times and had great service.

I love Carrabba....service amazing, food taste great... I'm giving a 4...because the steak was not well done and I had to heat.... but honestly... it was great after and besides that. read more

I was in the mood for some Italian, so my hubby brought me here while in Kalamazoo. He is always in the mood for burgers so he didn't order anything, but I got an order of lasagne and it came with a side salad and some bread with a side of oil. The order came out pretty quickly and the set up for covid precautions were prefect. I personally hadn't been to a Carrabba's in like 20 years because our local one went out of business before I was 10 and I was the only family member obsessed with Italian. While they are a chain, they are well set up, the food was delicious even after traveling back with me all the way to Benton Harbor, they were polite and everything was quick. If you are hungry for some Italian, this is a decent option when in Kalamazoo. read more

The owner contacted me and he was very gracious and apologized and he also gifted us with some coupons! I will go back!

Disappointed. This place used to be really good. It's a Saturday at noon and there's only 1 waitress, 1 host, and 1 bartender... It took the waitress (Bekah / Becca?) about 15 minutes for our drinks and never brought our waters. She also gave out the vibe that she was soooo busy. I ordered just a classic spaghetti (no meatballs or anything) and I never received it. It came with a salad so I chose a house salad but I got a Caesar instead. 45 minutes later I got my spaghetti and... mediocre at best. The calamari was so salty and undercooked. The marinara that came with it was soooo oily! The flavor on everything was not great at all. Used to be so much better, it used to taste like home made and now it just tastes like... commercialized? Makes you go "bleh" after it. Women's Bathroom: Ick! Smells like a port a John and toilet paper on the floor. The bathroom was obviously not cleaned in the morning from the night before. Skip this place, not worth it. The atmosphere Carrabbas once had is gone. read more

great food every time I order the steak sandwich is very delicious with those delicious fresh fries

Food and service was great. Portions were smaller than I remember but my last time was 2-3 years ago. We got the classic trio, chicken Marsala and also lobster ravioli. The soups and salads were great and my kids loved the bread as well. Some of the sides were a little on the salty side but I think that's expected. read more

The Sicscillan chicken soup is my favorite! Their Marsala sauce is also the best I've ever had! Sometimes we get a steak with Marsala, sometimes a pizza, and sometimes lasagna! The soup always stays the same! Their bread and herbs are yummy too! My husband likes to use the ends in his soup as big croutons read more

Not a bad experience. Although we waited so long. We ordered alfredo pasta , house salad and soup. The pasta was very pleasant with extra parmesan. The salad came with feta cheese , olive and tomato. was ok. The seafood soup was the top for me. We had to cancel the dessert because it came un clean with vinegar sprayed all over the dish. read more

Lasagna was very yummy and tasty! Only thing was portion was more on the smaller side for how much it was. The dessert on the other hand... DELICIOUS. It was very good and I would totally get it again! Service was slower but I think it's because they recently hired new employees so wasn't too big of an issue. read more

What happened to Carrabba's? It used to be a family favorite for us. After our last visit they are fully off the list for good. The dining room being 90% empty on a Sunday afternoon should've been our first clue. Service was slow (server stood on the other side of the partition on their phone while another cruisers around with earbuds in). Dishes rarely cleared. Food was subpar (mashed potatoes tasted like plastic). All while somehow being $20-30 per entree. The bathroom was a mess and the paper towel dispensers has been broken for a lifetime so there's a roll sitting on the counter to use instead. Arrivederci Carrabba's. read more

The only thing good about this place is the customer service. The soup was okay, but I did find a hair in it and had to replace it which was disgusting. The kid's grilled chicken was extremely dry and not much flavor at all. The spaghetti was okay but not the meatballs. The salad was also nothing to speak of. read more
