Love going to Carrabbas food is so great. We always sit at the bar, and Kathy is our server. Great service friendly conversation. Just a darn good time! read more

Great lunch at Cartabba's today, took my bike and met up with Kim. $11.99 Lunch Trio meal with some nice options, and all of the food was really good! Stuffed mushrooms were excellent, and they even had anchovies on the Ceasars! read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - Seafood Near Me - Venice, Florida

Around 6:30pm, my family had purchased an online order through DoorDash which included a chicken parm that initially I was happy with because overall our order was okay but when I cut into the chicken there was a piece of hair in it. This is the second time that this had happened, do better! read more

We do Door Dash a few times a month and Carrabba's is always consistent, great food, and wonderful Door Dash delivery people. Hats off to the chefs working Wednesday, March 4 for their fillet and shrimp pasta and linguini aka vodka with shrimp/ scallops. Ordered this 3 times and always delicious and nice serving size regardless of "season" or summer!! Peter was good DD driver! Thank you, Carrabba's! read more

We order from here frequently and the same meal everytime. We use door dash on many occasions and never had an issue. Door dash did an excellent job. Unfortunately, when we received the food it contained one scallop and 4 shrimp. Normally the meal comes with an equal number of both. We hope this isn't going to be the "norm" because we will never order again and that would make me sad. read more

Food came out delicious and hot. Service was great! Thank you Nicole for your kindness and not rushing us out like other places do. Keep up the great work! read more

Wow 25 women wearing wreaths! That's 25 separate checks and Emma and her helper did it all!! Kudos to the chefs and Carrabaa for an enjoyable luncheon.. read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - Friendship Center go getters! - Seafood Near Me - Venice, Florida

Server staff were good . But once again the food was served lukewarm. Why is it so hard to serve hot food . Bewildering

Server forgot about us. We sat down outside because the weather was nice and she was attentive, then we asked for water, my friend got hers after her dinner came and i didn't get mine at all. Server came after food was delivered and asked how it was but we didn't even have any silverware so we wouldn't know.. After we were finished we were left sitting there for 25 mins when finally the hostess came outside and I asked her if we were supposed to pay inside because no one came out at all for us. The server came back out and openly admitted she forgot about us. We also paid 2 separate checks and that was a problem too. She ended up giving us free desserts but that didn't make up for the horrible service. read more

We went to have spaghetti bolognese for my husband and a salad for me. Our food came and we had to ask for silverware. My salad came with no dressing on it or with it. I told waitress... she returned with a new salad, after a long wait that looked great.. had various veggies on it that were not even on the prior salad! We had to order more bolognese sauce also since the sauce was scant. Overall impression... staff stretched too thin with too many tables and consistently is a problem with quality. read more

Food and service fine. But I have to say, I don't understand why the workers with full beards are not required to wear hair nets. It doesn't make sense. Very unsanitary read more

Thee best place to have soup and salad! Yum! Sat at the bar like we usually do, had excellent service like always, the soup, salad and bread were amazing! Truly a wonderful place to eat, everyone is always so so friendly and makes you feel so loved and at home! We will always patronize this terrific restaurant! read more

Alexia was amazing I will be returning due to her amazing service. Food was also very good read more

Carrabba's Italian Grill - Seafood Near Me - Venice, Florida

Always good food especially steaks and seafood! My fav is the shrimp scallop dish... and lasagna dish! But the best ever is the lemon cello bread, pudding dessert! Only in the spring but they need to leave it on the menu year round! I would go there just to get that!!! read more

it used to be a good place - went downhill. First thing waitress did was try to sell us a bottle of wine...

We decided to have dinner out on this evening and chose Carrabba's because we had $50 in gift cards. When we arrived it was very busy. Upon entering we were greeted with a smile and a question, "would you like indoor or outdoor seating?" We elected outdoor, it was a very nice evening. Our server (who was very professional) introduced himself, Xander J is his name, and he took our drink orders. When the drinks arrived he explained all our dinner options and then took our order. My wife ordered the 16 ounce Ribeye steak with Asparagus and I ordered the Pollo Rosa Maria with Broccoli. Our food arrived piping hot and was absolutely EXCELLENT. We were very happy with the food and the service. However, in my opinion, the price for 2 people dining out, which was $100 - is just too expensive - for a night out. This is the only reason we don't eat out very often any more. It is simply too expensive for our budget. read more

This place is awesome! Our server, Alexa, was very attentive and super knowledgeable about the menu. The service and food were excellent I recommend this location to all. read more

While we came in looking homeless into this fine establishment, the ambiance of Carrabba's is beautiful. The best Italian twist of the state I believe. We were treated like royalty by our server, Ashlynn. She was outstanding to say the least. She was very charismatic, calm, and educated of everything on the menu. Only being a year at Carrabba's, she told me the exact taste of my dish as if she was cooking it herself, and was spot on! She could sell you anything and you wouldn't regret the purchase. Our food was absolutely delightful. Every bite was thoroughly tasted and enjoyed. The chefs outdone themselves today and I appreciate the exquisite meal I was craving! I choose this particular restaurant, out of the many in the area. You will not be disappointed! read more

Great food. Server Xander was awesome and attentive. We had a small issue with a dessert being too cold that him and the manager took care of RIGHT AWAY and very professionally. Food was solid too. We will be back. Thank you read more

Three important elements, making this a lovely dinner: 1) Delicious chicken marsala (always with extra mushrooms), and angel hair pasta with garlic & olive oil 2) Al fresco dining 3) "Breaking bread" with a childhood friend Honestly, we expected to have dinner at a favorite Indian restaurant, but when we saw throngs of people waiting by the door -- the pitfalls of snowbird season! -- I said 'forget it,' which is how we ended up at Carrabba's. Our meals were as good as I anticipated, made even better by dining outside. We didn't want for a thing, thanks to our on-the-ball server, Gino. Nothing more to add, other than I like this chain -- or I should say I like their chicken marsala. In the 25 years I've patronized Carrabba's in one place or another, I've never deviated from my menu choice! (Kind of makes me sound like a dullard, or at the very least a loyal customer.) read more

Flavorful steak ;had to chew it a lot.Nice waitress I guess the ambiance was not quiet.OK

Alexa our waiter was amazing. Very attentive and friendly. Food was excellent as always. Wine was delicious.

Best meal that was delivered I ever had. The filet/shrimp with pasta amazing and the grilled wings were amazing.

I was trying to make a take out order. I was transferred to curbside department. No one ever answered the phone. Called back. Same thing. No one picked up the phone. read more

Always absolutely outstanding. Best dining experience I've had. Makes me look forward to my next visit. Victoria (waitress) and Jovan (AKM) are hands on the best server/cook we've ever had. Love that they remember their customers. You can tell the staff genuinely care about their guests. Very welcoming, attentive, respectful, and makes sure we are taken care of. The service and food is extremely consistent. The food has such a beautiful presentation and is delicious, whether you are getting their lunch or dinner. Comes out quick and hot. They are on top of it...the restaurant is super clean. I enjoy the lovely music they play as well. The atmosphere is elegant and the lighting is calming. Overall we always recommend coming to this restaurant! We appreciate you guys so much. Thank you. read more

Food looks like it's it is already cooked. They ran out of chicken parm at 6 o'clock on a Saturday night, very strange.

For a family restaurant, I give it a 5. Servings were large, waitress very sweet and attentive, clean with a pleasing atmosphere. Treated my mil out to dinner and she selected Carrabba's here in Venice, FL. We ordered from the "Dinner & Dolce" special menu that includes 3-course meal for two $45. Soup or Salad; Entrée; Dessert to share. We really ENJOYED and hope you do too! read more

Stopped in for their happy hour. Bartenders were friendly and efficient. Decided not to order food because the bathrooms were disgusting. I can't imagine what the kitchen looks like. read more

Service was poor. Ordered neverending soup and salad. Someone finally dropped off small soup and salad plate and never saw a wait person again. The soup was just warm not hot. Wife ordered a lunch special. Waited long time to receive barely warm soup And finally the entre. So disappointing read more

The food is always good and consistent here. Little mix up and got my food late. The manager was extremely nice and handled it all. Good guy as well run restaurant. read more

I can't help it - I am seated, once again, in Carraba's Italian Grill with another group of friends. Our laughter in abundance along with delicious soup and salad, Chicken Parmesan, Sogni Di Chocolate and a generous cup of robust coffee. Our server, Amanda, added to the charm of another delicious dinner at Carraba's with friends. We will be back next Friday for the special Dinner for Two dine in special. it is all good! read more
