I just left this Carrabas quite literally less than five minutes prior to writing this, but I wanted to leave a review since halfway through my time there. We walked in and were seated super fast. Once seated our server (Anna) came up really fast and got our drinks and appetizer order. Another man came by with our bread shortly after. Our drinks and food was very fast. When she brought them we ordered our main food and got our side salads really fast. The food was really good and so were the drinks. Our server was also very fast when we asked for the check. The food/service was all great! I would like to write a little shout out to our server Anna who laughed at mine and my boyfriends stupid...
I like Carrabba's, the chain, but this location was a disappointment. The food was excellent, but we waited just to check in with the hostess. Then she couldn't locate our reservation or those of the two parties ahead of us. Our server was very nice when she found her way to check on us. Not a single check in on us after the entrees arrived, which meant no drink refills among other things. Took forever to get our check. I will assume this was just a bad night, and still really liked the food. But boy did the service stink from the minute we walked in to the minute we left
They gave me my special order (medium steak and pasta in olive oil) but it took a while. I guess because it wasn't a standard menu item. The food was good even though the steak was medium well and overcooked and did not have the marsala topping I requested. My fault for going to an italian place for a steak I guess. They didn't ask what I wanted to drink or if I wanted dessert. However the side salad was good and I really enjoyed the pasta, bread and the dipping spices in oil. Lunch on a weekday was not busy but they seemed short staffed.
Bottom line we never got to eat. We arrived there 10 minutes before our scheduled reservation to be told that there was a minimum 45 minute wait and that reservations were not really reservations. Never had that experience before with an Open Table reservation. Needless to say, we won't be returning.

First time eating here and was not disappointed. Food was very good and the prices were reasonable. Will be visiting again in the future.
I enjoyed Carraba!! Wonderful price & portion!!
I warn you, I am not a fan of salty food but I am a huge fan of cheesy and thick pasta.
Reward program does not work. Manager did not honor our reward after visits. Very rude manager in Centreville. Don’t go there
Nice menu. Tasty food. Friendly service. Portions are fairly large. Pastas can be heavy. Be prepared to take some home.
