significant honor for Carrabba's," said Steve Shlemon, president.
"Our family is proud of the success of our restaurant, and the
number of lives that we've touched across the country over the past
twenty years." The Restaurants & Institutions annual awards
program recognizes restaurants that are selected through a national
survey of more than 3,100 restaurant customers. Diners were asked
to rate nearly 120 chain restaurants on eight customer satisfaction
points: food quality, menu variety, value, service, atmosphere,
cleanliness, reputation and convenience. Winners are named in 13
menu categories. This was the 26th year for this annual award to be
presented. Co-founders Johnny Carrabba and Damian Mandola, hosts of
the popular PBS cooking show series, Cucina, established Carrabba's
legacy of delivering fresh, flavorful food and warm hospitality
when they opened the first Carrabba's in Houston, Texas in 1986.
Family recipes and the use of only the finest ingredients have been
at the core of the restaurant's success. OSI Restaurant Partners,
Inc. (NYSE:OSI) purchased the rights to expand Carrabba's in 1993.
There are presently 217 Carrabba's Italian Grill restaurants
throughout the country. For more information and locations, visit
