Always takes gluten free measures. Their pasta is delicious!
Sadly, this place is not Celiac safe. I've been to many different locations since Carraba's is my favorite italian restaurant, and this one gives them a bad rep.
I made the server aware that I had a "gluten allergy" (celiac). Ordered the chicken bryan with gluten free alfredo, and a side caesar salad with no crutons. She brought our salads out and mine seemed fine. I started to eat, and then I bit into a small piece of a cruton.
It definitely caught me off guard because I haven't been served gluten, much less eaten any, since being diagnosed with Celiac Disease. it made me extremely upset knowing I'd end up being very sick later on due to the carelessness of the kitchen staff. The manager apologized but didn't seem sincere. I would have told them to keep my food had my husband not told me I needed to eat.
My alfredo ended up being extremely bland, and my chicken was still raw halfway through eating it. I didn't say a word because I was just ready to go. Got the bill and they didn't compensate me for anything. The manager actually came by wanting to know how my entree was and I just said "fine" when I should have just given her a piece of my mind.
I will never return to this location. They don't give a damn about gluten intolerant customers, and their food is just not up to par with the rest of the chain. I'd say it definitely needs new management.
Love it here. Great gf menu.
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!
