Carrabba's Italian Grill
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Carrabba's Italian Grill is a chain of Italian dinner houses.
The chain was founded in 1986 by Johnny Carrabba and his uncle Damian Mandola and opened its first restaurant on Kirby Drive in Houston, Texas. Soon after a second location was opened on Woodway at Voss Streets. Both original locations are still operated by the Carrabba and Mandola families. Many of the recipies for the dishes on Carrabba's menu are those of Damian's mother Grace and his sister Rose.
In January of 1993, under a joint partnership with Outback Steakhouse, Inc., 10 new locations were opened in Houston and in Florida and in January, 1995, Outback Steakhouse, Inc. acquired the rights to develop the Carrabba's chain nation wide.
Today there are currently over 200 Carrabba's Italian Grill locations located in 27 US States.
