I have eaten here once since diagnosed and I got really sick. I wouldn't trust them again.
I thought the food was fine at best.
Best to avoid. No separate cooking area so cross contamination is a big concern. Not sure why they would state they have a gluten free menu and then warn it's not safe for celiacs.

Not a good choice, everything is cooked on the same grill. The basting sauce they use has gluten in it.
VERY disappointed. I loved Carrabba's when I ate gluten. Now not so much. Waiter didn't know the gluten free menu at all. Had me confused and that doesn't happen very often. I asked for an Italian salad no croutons (because the menu states to ask to have salads made in a fresh bowl and w/o croutons) and no tomatoes. He assumed I wanted a Caesar because I asked for no croutons. He also didn't know that the chicken on the g-free menu came with two prescribed sides - daily mixed veg and garlic mashed potatoes. My mom - not g-free, but allergic to mushrooms - had mushrooms in her pasta after asking that there be no mushroom
The staff was nice and friendly. They took my allergy seriously. The have a button on their ordering system that automatically makes your whole order gluten free.

I've eaten here many times and feel safe enough.
I always ask for Shavon as our server. Shavon is one of the best servers anywhere! She's worked at this Carrabbas since it opened maybe 14 years ago. She is very familiar with celiac disease and is on top of it for taking care of the customer. For example, when she rings in my food, she puts the "gluten free" note like 6 times! She will also bring us our soups herself as another precaution.
Recently they changed their type of gluten-free pasta here and it's a bowtie pasta that cooks much better than the previous pasta.
A side of alfredo sauce doesn't cost extra. I sometimes ask for this for my broccoli.

Just ate here a few days ago. Very disappointed. When my plate arrived there was hardly any pasta on the plate. Maybe a quarter cup? Not cool when the entree is $24.99 for chicken. I should have said something but we waited so long for our food I didn’t want to hold up the rest of my party. They also changed the gf pasta to bowties. The other gf pasta was much better in my opinion. In addition, we watched the cook wash off the grill with pasta water. Ugh! Not sure I want to go back.

Carrabbas was one of my favorite places to eat before my celiac diagnosis. I was so excited to find out that many items on their menu are labeled gluten free. Even my favorite menu items! They did sub in gluten free pasta with their Alfredo for me and the pasta was over cooked and pasta sauce was incredibly bland BUT honestly I have never gone there for their pasta. I lean towards their steak and chicken dishes.

The salmon and GF pasta with the Tomato-basil-garlic sauce was great! Also the steak, mashed potatoes, and veggies are all delish!
