Carrabba's Italian Grill Richmond Midlothain Turnpike

Strawberry Cheesecake was absolutely delicious! the Four-Cheese Sausage Stuffed Mushrooms were good but cold. bread was so good. Spaghetti and Meatball for kids only had one meatball he expected more. not very filling for an 8 year old.

The Lasagne is the best I have ever found, and I have searched everywhere. It has just the right ratio of sauce to meat to cheese. My daughter and I both love the Lunch Trio Shrimp Scampi. The house salad is our favorite of the three side salads. We all miss Carrabba apos;s Tomato Soup so much. It was our favorite thing on the menu for over 10 years, but their chicken soup is a close second. The Grilled Chicken Breast for kids is a hit and every last bite of the chicken breast and broccoli was enjoyed. The Cheese Ravioli Tomato Sauce is flavorful. The spicy tomato sauce delighted my little girl. The Cannoli Cake for Two Cake for Two is good, too. It is big enough for four people to share when some of them are little.

Food was excellent! Huge props for having good gluten free pasta and not up-charging for it like most places do.

The Tuscan-Grilled Filet* 9 oz was too tough. The cut had to be USDA Select. It was not worth that price. The seasoning was great, but, too tough for $36. Same with the NEW! Tuscan-Grilled Ribeye* 16oz. The steaks were cooked to the correct temperature, but both were way too tough, and not that fresh for the prices. I hate that too. Everything else was perfect; the salads, bread, broccoli mashed potatoes.

The truffle fries were tasty but very soggy or soft, once they arrived. They were room- temperature, which is not the fault of the reataurant or my dasher. Its my fault just because I know when wrapping the fries for delivery, they are always soft. Everything else was delicious. I did notice the small- sized portion of Mezzaluna. One of my faves. Usually I have plenty of leftovers for tomorrow but I do not. The price has increased while the amount of pasta has decreased. The pasta was to die for so I was happy.
