Carrabba's Italian Grill Pasadena

I met a friend here for dinner late in the evening. The service started out great but wained when was busy. I believe she was the only server for a whole section. The soup was fantastic, the chicken noodle soup was very delicious fresh and had lots of fresh white meat. I'd also like to mention my experience when I went to the bathroom. One of the employees there mentioned it outloud Jesus was his n I overheard this and corrected him and say don't say something like that publicly. He mentioned that that's his personal relationship with Jesus. As an employee of a restaurant, whatever you think about Jesus should be kept to yourself, especially if it's a racial slur. He went on to proceed to say that he was valid and saying what he was saying in a public restaurant with a uniform. This was so disheartening... And I didn't further comment to him. As a business, you need TRAIN your employees about how their public persona can affect someone who is a customer to the business. Whatever an employee says when in uniform reflects the business.

This Carrabba's location has always been consistent, having good food, and decent service. Food always is served in a timely manner and has good flavor. Last two visits however, the service has been somewhat below expectations. Once we felt very rushed(it was a Tuesday night, restaurant was empty). Last visit, the waiter did not want to attend to getting us drinks and failed to offer us bread or parmesan cheese without us asking several times. Hopefully this was just a couple one-time bad experiences. Food was still good!

Everything was great. Shrimp Alfredo was creamy with properly cooked shrimp. The James trio was delicious. The steak was cooked to perfection. The ravioli had a rich flavor. The chicken bryan was different from anything I had before. I didn't care much for the sausage soup we tried. The cesar salad was crisp and fresh. The winner of the night though was the fried zucchini fries! The tasty sangria washed it all down. Definitely a must try. We had amazing service! Will be returning in the future. Oh, almost forgot, the cannoli cake was one of the best cakes I've ever had.

We sat immediately... our server was friendly and fantastic... the food came out quickly and was perfectly cooked... fabulous meal! My husband and I came to dinner for our anniversary...may definitely come back! Thank you for a wonderful experience!

I had my birthday dinner and it was amazing. Brent our waiter was amazing. He even gave me a chocolate cake for my day.
