I talked to Julianne and she helped me with ordering the proper amount of food. We did have a few leftovers, however, there was no problem with people taking it home! It was delivered to the hall and was hot and delicious! Everyone loved the chicken! My favorite side was the bow tie pasta salad! The kids loved the pizza and the green salad and coleslaw rounded out the meal! We will order again from Mama Julianne’s!“

“5 star review The DAOU February Wine Dinner at Carrabba’s was nothing short of a culinary and sensory triumph. This was not simply a themed dinner. It was a carefully curated tasting journey, thoughtfully composed from first course to final pour, executed with remarkable precision and heart. The evening opened with the Strawberry Goat Cheese Crostini, a deceptively elegant starter that set the tone immediately. The whipped honey ricotta and goat cheese delivered a creamy, tangy foundation, beautifully balanced by the brightness of strawberry and the depth of balsamic glaze. The basil chiffonade added a subtle herbal lift, keeping the dish light, fresh, and refined. It was a perfectly calibrated opening note. Course two, the Tuscan Strawberry Salad with Shrimp, showcased exceptional balance and restraint. The strawberries were ripe and vibrant, offering natural sweetness against the savory depth of wood-grilled shrimp. The strawberry vinaigrette tied everything together with precision, while gorgonzola added just enough richness and complexity without overpowering the plate. Paired with the DAOU Rosé, this course was refreshingly sophisticated and brilliantly composed. The Garlic Lemon Herb Linguine with Grilled Chicken marked a beautiful transition into richer territory. The “Liquid Gold” sauce lived up to its name, coating each strand of pasta with silky depth while remaining remarkably clean on the palate. Bright citrus notes cut through the richness, and the grilled chicken was juicy, tender, and expertly seasoned. This course demonstrated technical control and thoughtful layering of flavor, elevated further by the Sauvignon Blanc pairing. The centerpiece of the evening was undoubtedly the Filet with Crab and Shrimp Crocchetta. The filet was cooked with impressive accuracy, tender and deeply flavorful, with a beautifully charred exterior. The crispy crocchetta added textural contrast and indulgent seafood richness, while the roasted red pepper sauce brought subtle sweetness and acidity. The supporting elements, garlic mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus, were executed flawlessly and grounded the dish. Paired with the DAOU Cabernet Sauvignon, this course was bold, luxurious, and immensely satisfying. Dessert, the Strawberry Sogno, was a masterful finale. Layers of dense chocolate brownie, airy mousse, and strawberry cream created a balanced interplay of richness and brightness. The presentation was elegant, and the flavors were indulgent without becoming heavy. The Pessimist Red Blend pairing amplified the cocoa notes while enhancing the fruit components, closing the experience on a high, memorable note. Throughout the evening, the pacing was impeccable. Each course arrived at exactly the right moment, allowing guests to fully appreciate every pairing and transition. The experience felt intentional, immersive, and expertly orchestrated. A special recognition goes to Laura and Crystal, whose service elevated the entire night. Their knowledge, attentiveness, and genuine hospitality made the experience feel personal and seamless. They anticipated needs, explained pairings with confidence, and created an atmosphere of comfort and refinement that complemented the cuisine perfectly. This dinner delivered the sophistication of a boutique winery tasting combined with the warmth and consistency Carrabba’s is known for. For the price point, the value was extraordinary. The quality, execution, and overall experience far exceeded expectations. This was not just a great meal. It was a thoughtfully designed culinary event that demonstrated respect for ingredients, technique, and the guest experience. An outstanding achievement. I would return without hesitation.“

“We got take out tonight for the first time and it was excellent!!! The Brussel Sprouts were out of this world delicious and the salads were big and delicious! I can’t wait to eat more of this food!“

“Stopped in to try and ordered the lunch special with 2 tenders with Carolina BBQ sauce and Tilapia. Lunch had generous portions for $7.99. Next time ill order a head because they make everything on the spot! Very good food and service. I will definitely be going back! Also very friendly owners“

“We had Ashley as our server and she was great!!! Attentive, but not overly!  The only complaint for my food was the asparagus was impossibly tough on the bottom quarter of it, leading me to think they didn't snap it off. No big deal  because the other 3/4 what's delicious (and a lot!! ) Still one of my favorite places!“

“Great food, great service and great knowledge and communication from the server to the kitchen staff about which options are gluten free. Many places make you feel like a burden when questioning the menu due to your dietary needs. Everyone there made me feel they were happy to answer questions and address the issue. I cannot say enough good things about the experience.“

“We had a party of 12. This was a family get together. We had two servers, shame on me can’t remember their names, they were attentive and we wanted for nothing. The food was phenomenal and service was the same! This place is beautiful and cozy! I highly recommend ❤️“

“I've been going to this location for many years now, and I've never had a negative experience. Kind staff, quick service when possible, yet I've never felt rushed. Today, I went with some of my family and we had the privilege of being served by Andi! He was so nice, patient, and came back to our table to see how we were doing the perfect amount of times.“

“We always have an amazing time when we visit Stancatos! 😊 The atmosphere is welcoming and the staff are incredibly friendly, making sure we never have to wait long for anything. The restaurant has two different areas, which is really nice — you can enjoy a quiet, relaxed dinner with family or sit closer to the bar and have a fun time with friends. 🍝

The food is truly authentic Italian and always tastes fresh and full of flavor. I especially loved the warm fresh bread and the marinara sauce — it was absolutely delicious! 😋 My wife and I were really impressed with the beef Bolognese. It was unlike any Bolognese I’ve tried before — very unique and perfectly prepared.

And the dessert was the perfect ending to the meal! 🍰 Everything about the experience was wonderful, and we will definitely be coming back again. Highly recommend this place to anyone who loves great food and great service! ⭐“
