Carrabba's

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Menu had multiple choices and everything was clearly marked on the menu. They fully accommodated the children's menu to substitute for gf pasta. My 6 yr old daughter loved it! I'm not celiac but I ordered off the gf menu so she could try more things. I had the gf minestrone which was delicious and the pork tenderloin which was also great. She especially loved the mashed potatoes! I would definitely recommend this place.

On Quality & Quantity

The salmon and GF pasta with the Tomato-basil-garlic sauce was great!

The gf menu is very impressive. We've had family carryout of chicken marsala on two occasions that were delicious, plus two deliveries and one sit down meal in Carrabba's since my wife has been diagnosed, and they do a wonderful job. At the restaurant, she ordered Caesar salad. It came with croutons. When she asked if they were gf, the waitress apologized bc they weren't, and had the salad remade. It was an honest mistake rectified quickly.

Comment

Visited this restaurant with family. I was assured by family members that I would have safe options. I ordered salmon and veggies, which I was assured were gluten free. My food was brought out next to family members pasta’s and breads. I didn’t think much of it at the time. My waitress, during dinner rush, brought our our food, left it in the middle of the aisle, out in the open as people walked by, and left it there for 10 minutes while she retrieved the rest of the orders. I begrudgingly ate it, knowing I would later regret it. I had the worst stomach pain of my life within hours. I was cramping, nauseous, you name it for days afterward. I broke out in full body hives for a week afterward. To this day, I’m not sure how exactly I was glutened, or if I also had some slight food poisoning, but I will never be returning and I highly, highly suggest if you are gluten free/have a gluten allergy, or are celiac that you AVOID THIS CARRABBA’S LIKE THE PLAGUE. Not only did I become ill, the food was downright horrible. I could’ve went to the store and bought a frozen gluten free TV dinner that would’ve tasted better than the $25 salmon that made me hate my life.

They were well aware of what my son needed for gluten free. Staff went the extra mile. Great gluten free menu. Food was delicious!

They have gf options, but I do not recommend the Casarecce pasta. It was undercooked. I had the shrimp and scallop alla vodka, and I wasn’t impressed. Sad day.

Celiac friendly?

No

I ordered the Chicken Bryan with grilled asparagus and a Caesar salad with no croutons as takeout tonight. In the special instructions for both the chicken and salad I wrote: Gluten Free. Halfway through my salad I bit down on a partially cooked linguini noodle. That kind of blatant disregard is unacceptable, and sadly I can’t ever eat there again.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Ordered to-go tonight. Did the spaghetti and meatballs but subbed GF Casarecce pasta! Flavor was great, and I did not have a reaction.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My son who has celiac ordered the salmon and asparagus with no issues and loved it!

Ordered the Fet. Alfredo with gluten free pasta. I was assured the gluten free pasta is cooked in new/fresh water. And the Alfredo sauce is gluten free- it’s just cream and cheese. We left about 20 mins ago and I’m terribly sick. Total cross contamination or worse. Would not eat there again.

No reservations and wound not confirm on gluten free options

Good food and service. Staff was knowledgeable. Very expensive though!

Now - let me start with going to an Italian restaurant with celiac isn’t exactly my first choice. But one night a few months back I was so desperate for something warm I didn’t cook and I took the chance here. I did not get sick. I was stunned. The take out was good. The salad was good. Well I decided to try it again. Second time same thing except even better. Eat in ! The food was so hot ! So much of it! SO delicious!!! I mean SO delicious !! As I sat there super full I wondered uh oh did I get sick ? I let it settle and I was wishing I hadn’t had her take the plate!! NO sickness at all! I had the ministroni soup and Alfredo with peas and chicken. I can’t even tell you how good it was ! I highly recommend ! Thank you Carrabas !! Well freaking done ! I can’t wait to go back !

Celiac friendly?

Waiter was knowledgeable about menu and what modifications could be made. Very knowledgeable on pairings too all round great dinning experience as well as healthy for my celiac partner.

I had a very unpleasant visit last night. I ordered my gluten free pasta dish and then while my family was enjoying their appetizers the waiter came over and told me that they were out of gluten free pasta and I needed to choose something else and handed me a menu. I handed it back to him and said I dont want anything else and the only reason we came here was because they had GF options for me. My mom immediately wanted to leave as it was her birthday dinner and if I couldnt eat it was ruined for her. I insisted they stay. The manager then comes over and says who wanted GF? My mom goes my daughter NEEDS GF she has celiac. The manager then tells us they do have a "little bit" of gf pasta in the back but not for everyone. So they were going to make me change my dish even though they had pasta. I said I shouldn't have to disclose my illness when you offer it on your menu. They then comped dessert (which isnt gluten free) which I think they should have comped my meal. I doubt I'll ever return to this location.

I was very sadly disappointed. I've been to another Carrabba's and it was amazing. This one... Not. I ordered Fettuccine Carrabba without mushrooms. The penne was undercooked. I found a piece of mushroom, a piece of shrimp, and a hair in my pasta so I'm worried about whether it's cross-contaminated as well. Just left so I don't know if it has made me sick or not.

If this review were based on service I would have given more stars. However, after ordering gluten free pasta I am now in bed sick. I’m not sure what type of pasta I received or what the other ingredients in the sauce might have been but I do know for a FACT I was given gluten after notifying my server of my condition. Please think twice before eating here.

Excellent quality food and well marked GF items on menu - no special menu needed.

Celiac friendly?

I ate here and had a great experience. I am a sensitive celiac, all of the items are clearly labeled on the menu. I got the minestrone soup, chicken Bryan, and gluten free pasta!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Got the chicken Alfredo with gf noodles! Very good taste! Staff was unsure but double checked with the back. Felt very reassured to eat! No reaction and will be going back soon!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

My son has celiac disease and has had a good experience both visits in the last six months. When he ordered pasta and chicken with Alfredo sauce on our first visit, our waitress was very careful to speak directly to the chef who would prepare it and she assured that he used all news pans/pots, utensils and clean surface area. (GF pasta is always boiled in separate pot) The manager also was quick to oversee the process as well. My son had no reactions.

Celiac friendly?

No

I ordered 2 gluten free pasta dishes: one for me (not celiac) and one for my daughter who is celiac. I usually order mine gf too in case she wants to change with me. She didn’t get sick but only ate the salad. When I got to the bottom of my pasta dish there were a few regular pasta noodles beneath the gf noodles. I’m thankful my daughter didn’t eat her main course & would definitely not recommend this location to a celiac.

Gluten free menu items, gluten free pasta option. Waitress did ask if I had an allergy or just a preference I was able to explain my level of sensitivity.

Got glutened with a piece of pasta in my meal! Celiac’s avoid!

Celiac friendly?

So impressed with the changes and extensive training Carrabba’s has gone through to provide safe Gluten Free options. Nima tested and food found to be gluten free!

They have a gluten free pasta that can be used with a lot of their entrees. I had ordered their meatball & meat sauce with GF noodles and they immediately called to let me know the meatballs have some bread in them so they aren’t GF. They gave me extra meat sauce instead and it was so delicious! Their quality of ingredients seem so much better than Olive Garden’s exact entree and it was a bigger portion.

Ordered a Caesar salad without croutons and had to send it back 3 times because they kept putting croutons

Celiac friendly?

Have been eating here since 2018 and have NEVER been sick. We eat here at least 4 times a month because of never getting sick.

Love this place. Very celiac-friendly.

Celiac friendly?

No

I have eaten here safely many times. Very safe for celiacs. Lots of gf options. One of my favorites. *EDIT- After a discussion about GF needs and accommodations, I ended up with a crouton in my salad that I didn’t see until I had eaten 2/3 of it. I had to rush home and force myself to throw up. :(

Several GF options available. Staff was accommodating.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

As a very sensitive Celiac, Italian food restaurants cause me the most anxiety. I have been glutened by GF pasta at restaurants, too many times to mention. I reluctantly took my chances here. So happy I did. I had absolutely no reaction to the pasta or the chicken that I chose. The taste was by far the best GF pasta that I have eaten at a restaurant. It wasn’t overcooked or mushy. There were a lot of GF options on the menu. Very pleased with my meal and will definitely return.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The staff is knowledgeable. There are a good amount of gluten free options. Food is great!

Never had a problem, food was delicious!

Easy to use menus marked with gluten free options, Pasta available. Multiple options available. Even had options for me with multiple allergies that tasted good without much hassle, server knew the ingredients in everything I ask d about.

They only have one type of GF pasta and I’m pretty sure it was cross contaminated.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

We had a nice meal. Three of us gf. 2 celiac. No issues. They explained their prep practices and seemed to know what they were doing.

Celiac friendly?

Fabulous meal as well as great service! There were very many options as well.

Amazing and consistent. Never got sick from there and the service is great

Celiac friendly?

Great selection of gf pasta, soups

Celiac friendly?

I have eaten here twice. Each time the staff has been knowledgeable about food allergies. I have celiac as well as other food sensitivities and they went above and beyond. The manager on duty revisited with me about my food choices. They bartender visited with me about my drink choices. It’s been 12 hours and no issues. So I also believe they did there job in the kitchen regarding cross contamination. I had the salmon with gf fettuccine on the side and a salad with oil and balsamic vinegar with a yummy prickly pear margarita. Like the rest of you, eating out can be stressful. They lifted the stress away with their attention to my concerns and the delicious food. Will be back to this location.

Celiac friendly?

Found a long gluten noodle mixed in with my gf pasta after I ate half. Not safe for celiac.
