My son was a waiter for a time at Carrabbas. My sister rented a house
from one of the Carrabba family boys in Houston. I recall a few good
meals there before. The lamb chops stand out in my mind. It is so hard
to get lamb at chains, but I recall it being really good there. The
manager stopped at our table to talk to us and said they don't serve it
nightly but when they do serve it it always sold out.
