    Meatballs with ricotta and zucchini fritte

    Atmosphere is always wonderful. Server was very prompt and quick with my order. Food was delicious

    Their #1 ingredient and its best friend

    S-A-L-T-Y What does that spell? Disappointment!! The best parts of our experience this evening were the bread and our server, earning this review one big star. Both were unsalted and greatly appreciated. The wine was undoubtedly the catalyst to this review and the free cake was just a bandaid. Calamari sent back because it tasted like a salty seasoning packet. We appreciate the owner correcting the issue but in all honesty, though it was better than the start, the flavor of calamari did not come across the pallet. Two salads, both with wood fired chicken, were so salty we truly couldn't enjoy the plates and ate mostly just the romaine. Salad dressings are tart, proteins should complement not complete with that. Blindfolded or not, the flavors of the evening were drastically overpowered by obnoxious amounts of salt... and probably some pepper. Take the salt out of the kitchen! Leave it out of any marinades! And for goodness sake, taste the food you're exporting! Oh, and did I mention this experience took over 90 minutes? For salads...? Oy vey!

    me and my boyfriend have never had Carrabba's before, but we had a gift card from Christmas so we ordered this to-go for our date night. The curbside carry out was very quick, the woman who seemed to maybe be the manager was very friendly, but most importantly the food was AMAZINGGGGG. we had the appetizer with three different kinds of apps combined, pasta entrees and soups and salads, and finally a tiramisu. all the food was 10/10, and they didn't forget anything (i highly recommend trying the mozz sticks with their ranch! so good). (the appetizers were not warm anymore but we live far away so no problem! the bruschetta app was also scrambled up in the container but again, nothing i couldn't fix!) we were so happy that it came with bread AND dipping oil and seasonings. best takeout experience ever, i never leave reviews unless they REALLY deserve them so we're gonna start doing this more often! thank you!!!

    Chicken Bryan
    Julie D.

    Carrabba's is one of our favorite chain restaurants. I always get the Chicken Bryan and it is delicious. we absolutely love their salads and the bread with dipping oil. This was our first time at this location and they weren't busy but the service was very sketchy. I waited about 25 minutes for a cocktail after I had already asked for it twice. A food runner dropped off our food, and our waitress was to never return. I ended up asking another waitress because we needed some extra sauce. About 15 minutes after we were done eating our waitress finally came back with the check. everybody has bad days. It was just a little rough. Luckily we weren't in a rush. this is the closest location to us now we moved to North Carolina, so we will definitely be back!

    Mezzaluna
    Monica P.

    Today, four of us had lunch here on a very rainy day. DH and I had not been to a Carrabba's in years. The last time was in Maryland. We sat at the high tops near the bar. Tatiana was our waitress. What a friendly young woman. All smiles and attentive. The food was just as good as we remembered. The sausage and lentil soup was a little more soupy than I remembered but it was excellent. Chock full of flavors. I had the Mezzaluna as my entrée but didn't eat much of it. Between the fresh baked bread and some of the soup, I was filling up. The filling of the Mezzaluna included chicken, although I tasted more of the other fillings. Maybe the chicken was minced up. Still, good flavors and the ravioli was perfectly cooked. All other entrées were very good (other soups, side salad, and pasta dishes). We had a round of drinks (Bonizio Rosso Italian Red Blend; and a bloody Mary). Overall, a delicious lunch hanging out with good friends.

    Chicken Bryan to go

    We have had catering a few times from Carrabas now for work meetings. The food has been great and everyone really likes it. The delivery people have been nice and it packaged nicely.

    tiramisu
    Sophia S.

    The food was delicious, i got the chicken fettuccini alfredo and a caesar salad which were both great. The chicken on the alfredo was cooked to perfection and well seasoned. For dessert, we had the tiramisu which was also great. The only negative thing is the tables are quite crowded especially when it is busy.

    Located across busy Market street I opted to still make the walk utilizing the nice new cross walks…read moreat the stop light down the street. Once entering I had to wait to be seated as the hostess was overwhelmed with the couple before me. She was very nice once it came my turn. I opted to sit on the patio since it was a beautiful evening. The bar seemed crowded with what appeared to be locals. There were only a few of us on the patio but it filled up as I was leaving after a delightful meal. Love the mix of old seaside decor and the memorabilia. This place has history. Now for the food. I had to have the She crab soup as that is one of the things the place is known for. It was tasty. Not a lot of experience with this style soup but I enjoyed it almost as much as I would have a nice bisque. The side salad was a bit small but typical mix and the blue cheese was good but needed more of it. (More on that later) I opted for water tonight as I was trying to behave but they do have a full bar and a good wine list. The waitress was very knowledgeable and when I told her I was going to try one of the fresh catches Carolina style she recommended the Drum. It was very tasty. I would have loved to have more of the Carolina topping to sop up with the nice biscuits they brought out. The Mac and Cheese was also tasty. The vegetable tonight was green beans so that didn't sound very exciting so opted for the Mac. Probably not the healthiest choice but was tastier in my humble opinion. Great experience food wise and my poor server needs a medal or something. She was attempting to cover the bar area and the patio by herself. She was literally running trying to make it all work. She was great but it does appear they need to hire a few more folks to help.

    I was staying next-door at the Home2 suites and the front desk said this was a great place, so I…read morefigured I'd try it out. It's sort of Italian and sort of steak and sort of a little bit of everything. Really clean, strait forward , reasonable menu, nice ambience. It feels kind of high end but the pricing is definitely mid range. I selected the tomato basil soup as my appetizer. It came with a nice toasted crustini. It was a really good soup. It tasted fresh. It had a lot of body to it like, maybe they did the tomatoes here in the house from fresh. It was definitely tomato. The basil was kind in the background, but it was a true red sauce. It was almost tomato paste or tomato sauce flavor. I would've not complained if they given it to me over a bit of penne.. It had a really nice flavor on it not too sweet not too acidic really a very good soup. It came out in a footed coffee cup so you're getting about one cup of soup. The main course was the broiled seafood platter. It was anchored by a large piece of mahi-mahi, that was amazingly well prepared, firm and tasty. To the side of that was a wonderful crabcake, one of the best I've had anywhere and definitely the best in the Carolinas. It did not have too much breading and it had a wonderful texture with lots of good crab flavor. Drizzled across all of this were scallops and shrimp. The shrimp were a little overcooked if you asked me. The scallops were sweet and perfect and everything you would want them to be. The side that comes with this is their crab fries which essentially our beer battered french fries dusted with old bay seasoning. If you've ever had the crab fries at the Philadelphia, ballpark, this is the way they do it. For dessert, I ordered the lemon cello mascarpone cake. It comes drizzled with raspberry sauce. I had visions of lemon curd, and what I got was really good and really lemonade and good cake. But it's not a very big slice. I know about the weight staff. I don't know if they're all good, but mine was exceptional and lovely to talk with. The place was very busy. It had a nice vibe to it, it could've been in South Beach or Miami or Los Angeles, not that it was over over the top just that it was very clean and nice and well done. This is a professional restaurant not some amateur attempt. I recommend it.

My biggest frustration is the service at the fish counter. It often feels like customers are standing there waiting without anyone acknowledging them. On more than one visit, I've waited 15 minutes or longer before someone seemed to notice I was there. I've found that the best way to get helped is to go to the register first and tell the cashier what you'd like. If the customer service and organization at the counter improved, this would easily be one of the best seafood markets in Wilmington. Great seafood, but the wait and lack of acknowledgment can make the experience hit-or-miss.

    Lives up to its review **…read more we were originally on our way to a place Perla for oysters, our friend suggested it. I was looking at near by restaurants and decided to try seabird instead - as we wanted to come to the boardwalk anyways. I am so glad we changed our route to seabird. Venue: quite quaint than I thought but it is elegantly and uniquely presented. Food: ordered tuna crudo, short rib burger, eggs Benedict and of course the oysters. We loved every plate ordered. First oyster, super fresh, clean and exactly the type of oysters we are looking for. The condiments were made fresh and complimented the oysters very well. Burger was good- tender meat and seasoned well; this plate was ordered for my teen son- he said it was good but not worth $25 for a burger. Sturgeon eggs Benedict was cooked to perfection - perhaps one salt sprinkle away from absolute perfection but that's why the table salt is for. The shaved dill pickle it came with complimented The richness of the Benedict. The star of the show today for us the tuna crudo - oh my! What a complex taste - sweet, salty, savory, tangy, creamy and fresh- the savory tuna meets the sweet watermelon, fresh cucumber- spicy pepper with amazing watermelon cream dressing. I wanted to lick the whole sauce off the plate. Also ordered strawberry brownie icecream and I was in love! Creamy- not too rich or sweet - refreshing and perfect all in all, we all loved every bite. Service: exceptional service from entering the door to exiting. Our server was amazing. We are definitely coming back and recommending it to the friend who recommended us Perla

    We had brunch at Seabird and, despite one memorable hiccup, it was another very good experience…read more My wife and I split the Spicy NC Shrimp Chilaquiles, and once everything arrived as intended, the dish was excellent. The funny part? The kitchen initially sent out the shrimp dish... without the shrimp. We had to ask for them to bring the missing shrimp, which they quickly corrected. I couldn't help but imagine Chef Gordon Ramsay standing in the kitchen shouting, "You served the shrimp dish without any shrimp, you muppet!" That alone was worth a chuckle. We sat at the bar, where service is usually outstanding. This time the bartender was clearly overwhelmed and stretched thin, so things moved a little slower than normal. Even so, everyone remained professional and friendly. Chef Dean Neff has set a very high standard here, and it's easy to understand why Seabird has received so much recognition and James Beard attention over the years. The food quality, creativity, and consistency continue to make it one of our favorite spots in Wilmington. A missing shrimp on a shrimp dish and slower-than-usual bar service keep this from being a perfect score, but neither issue was enough to spoil the meal.
