Tried to avoid chains last year but people invite us to them , and, well we can't be dicks all the time. The last experience I had at a Carrabba's in Scottsdale was pretty good so let's try the one in Glendale,
Quickly seated, drinks, and appetizer were great. The soup, Spicy sausage and lentil was so good I looked up a copycat recipe for it . The goat cheese and pomodoro sauce brushcetta had us feeling all happy and relaxed.
then
main meal arrived. Wife's meat was not medium, not even close you could get red out of it.
Neither myself of the kid had cutlery so it took a while to get a waiter to stop to remedy this. This interval turned my veal marsala into a gelatinous mess when cold. It tasted of flour and barely of marsala which I can make about 23 times better at home.
Wife's dish was re heated it well done with black hightlights .Not a new meal. Now it's heavy on the grill flavor. Spoke to manager Heather , she came to us, but I can't ask for more ( actually I told them to leave it on the check ) than they drop it. The kids meal was great! but they ruined the evening , seriously a dessert ain't going to count two messed up entrees
