My girlfriend and I went on May 10 to the Carrabas on Mason-Montgomery Road in Mason Ohio at about 7:00 on a Friday. The restaurant was full but well-staffed. We waited about 10 minutes past our reservation time to get a table - no big thing. But it took some time to get simply water and our server apologized for the wait time to get seated despite having a reservation. She then proceeded to spend over 15 minutes taking with a table of two next door to us - ignoring us and all her other tables. I got up and went to the hostess station and asked for the manager who was right there. I told here what was going on and she apologized and went over to get our server (who was stilll talking to the table of two). The server came to our table, aplogized and took our order. The bread was not tasty at all; our orders of lasagna were extremely salty as was my caeser salad. I ended up running out of water to drink as neither our server, nor the manager (who came to our table with a "free order" of very sub-standard garlic bread (given to appease us for the terrible service)) nor anyone else refilled my glass even once. The staff appears to never "scan the crowd" (they avoid any eye contact) and look for patronswho need some attention. So overall it was an experience that will not have us returning to Carrabas for the poor food or the poor service. They are not even performing the most basic customer service and they seem to rely on salt as their main source of taste in their food. Years ago I went frequently and the food was great and service good. But boy they have gone downhill.........
