I very much enjoy the fare from Carrabbas. I must say our friends here in The Villages who cook Italian have served us some spectacular food and it was awesome.

I am not sure what criteria is needed to "know better" other than enjoyment of food. I think of myself as limited possibly because I am always worried about shellfish, and avoid a place when the servers do not speak English as their first language because I am never sure they understand my questions about shellfish allergy.


P.S. After thinking about this, perhaps GPSMA only meant that he was lucky enough to be raised in an Italian household and his mom cooked the real deal and anything else was a '"pathetic imitation".

Still yummy to many folks, Carrabas, including an Italian friend who cooks...…………..
