Carrabba’s Italian Grill has been around since December 26, 1986. This restaurant features Italian-American style dishes, and they first opened their doors on Kirby Drive in Houston, Texas. Damian Mandola and his nephew John Charles “Johnny” Carrabba III believed in keeping the family history alive when it came to how things ran at the restaurant. Despite that, the restaurant chain is now franchised, but the family still has ownership of the very first two locations.
Carrabba’s Italian Grill has more than 200 restaurants in the United States. They serve a variety of soups and salads, seafood, pasta, and steaks. They also have a kids menu. Today, the Carrabba’s Italian Grill menu still holds its history by keeping some of the family recipes on the menu today, such as the most famous Chicken Bryan and others.
Carrabba’s Italian Grill is similar to Olive Garden, as they both serve Italian-American style dishes. They have also featured their most famous dishes on the PBS cooking show Cucina Sicilia hosted by the Carrabba’s themselves.
