Carrabba's Italian Grill - Baton Rouge

My children and I sat at the bar that surrounds the exposed kitchen. All of the staff and food were great except for the kitchen manager. He was rude and disrespectful to the hispanic cooking staff to the point that I had to say something. I am not hispanic but this was just wrong. He then began yelling at me in front of my children stating that his job is very stressful. He made our meal very stressful and we will never go back. His staff should never be treated with such flagrant disrespect.

This restaurant has the best customer service I have experienced in a long while. We have visited it three times and they have been consistently outstanding. This particular time the waitress was knowledgeable of the menu, courteous and attentive. Our drinks were refilled before they ran out. The food was awesome, I had the spicy chicken soup and the salmon, both of them very tasty. My husband and daughter had the filet and pizza, respectively, which they enjoyed. The mini desserts are tasty and a great to have after a large meal.

This particular time, the waitress was nice, courteous and performed her job impeccably, making sure our drinks were refilled before they were empty. Her knowledge of the menu was extensive ad well. The food was awesome. I had the spicy chicken soup which was so good I felt like it was homemade. I then had the salmon. The salsa on top of it was very good, it was sweet but not overpowering. The mashed potatoes, I felt were a little salty but still good enough. My husband had the filet, which he said was very tender. My daughter had the pizza, which was also very good and then we had the mini desserts, which were very tasty and the perfect size after a large meal. We will definitely return to this place many more times.

I’ve always had a good experience here. My favorite is the Rosa Maria, but they actually have really good steak for an Italian place. Obviously, the pasta is good and the salads are mixed before they put it onto the plate. I hate it when I’m handed a huge salad on a tiny plate and am expected to mix it without making a mess!

I live Italian food (my grandma is Sicilian), but the dishes here are just ok. I haven't had a bad experience, but I find the sauces to be light and less rich than the Italian food I love and am used to. I don't know if it's open for lunch now, but I have tried to go a couple of times in the past for weekday lunch to find them closed.
