The menu was very helpful in indicating gluten-free items. Food was delicious, and I had so much to choose from. I just wish there was a gluten-free dessert option.

I’ve been there twice since my diagnosis and both times had a great experience.

I loved that I could have their soup without the noodles and also lots of options for pasta. They said they cook it separately than their other pasta.

I also had their grilled chicken too. :) no issues after eating!

So many options. The staff is very knowledgeable. All pasta dishes except for the ravioli can be made gluten-free delicious as-well. All the seasonings are gluten-free so the entire grill no risk of getting sick. Will go back

They have GF pasta that is cooked in a separate pot. They also have other GF options. There is exposed gluten in the kitchen so they can't guarantee there won't be cross contamination.

They were so accommodating for my gluten allergy and for my mother in laws dairy allergy! I have never gotten sick after eating there. One of my favorite places to eat because they have so many options for me.

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!
