5 Best Italian Restaurants near Arden

“🥰I have nothing but love for Carrabba's now. After Helene hit this area, we were left without power for several days at Audubon Place Apartments. We had lost everything in our fridge, freezer, and small deep freezer. We had nothing to eat that didn't require cooking. We took what we would salvage from our freezers (frozen eggrolls and frozen gyoza) and my cast iron skillet to the grill station area. Yes, we cooked it up on the grill taking a turn with every other person there who was also doing the same thing! While we were there talking to our Audubon neighbors, someone from Carrabba's comes and drops off a spread of food! It smelled so amazing, and it looked so lovely. We took some food for ourselves and neighbors who couldn't come over to the grills. Door to door we went in our building passing out some Carrabba's food and our own food. Yesterday, we stopped by to eat a good solid mean since we had been just eating what we could. We were so happy to see others and to actually have a chance at something normal for a change--not just surviving. Our meals were fantastic, and we had enough to take home for another meal later on. We talked to the owner, Ashley O'Bey and thanked her. Not only had they taken care of us, but they have been serving those here working the recovery and restoration (our linemen and etc)! Ashley made sure we had something else to eat later on as well. She took care of us! Each and every person in there working at this time are blessings! Amazing restaurant; amazing people! Beyond 5 stars!“

“We have been going to OG for years.We moved from Memphis and we’re there 50+ years. We now go to the Airport rd location.We have eaten there about 6-8 times.We have always had a good experience and the quality of food was consistent.\n\nOur last visit on 11/24 did not even make the mark.I ordered the soup and spaghetti with meat sauce.The pasta dish was great but the soups.The Toscana soup did not have any kale and the tasted like it was thinned out with water.The gnocchi soup tasted like milk and not cream. My spouse ordered lasagna which was dry.It needed more sauce.\n\nTop it off he was never asked if he wanted more salad and our drinks were never refilled.\n\nJust thought you needed to know.“
