Carrabba's Italian Grill

The Carrabba's story begins in Sicily, Italy, where the Carrabba's family made a love for food and handmade flavor a family tradition. After immigrating in the early 1900's and settling in Bryan, Texas, the family had grown and in 1986, Johnny Carrabba and his Uncle Damian Mandola opened the first Carrabba's Italian Grill in Houston, Texas.For them, the concept was simple - a warm and inviting atmosphere, made-from-scratch sauces, big portions of pasta, a wood-fire grill and being true to their Italian roots – a place where they would make their family recipes for other families to enjoy and experience together, just as they did.Today at Carrabba’s Italian Grill, we still believe nothing is more satisfying than connecting with friends and family over a big plate of delicious food.
