This is one my favorite Italian spots and be clear the Kirby "family" location is different from the suburb locations. You must ask for the Shrimp Oscelo while you're there. http://www.carrabbasoriginal.com/

If you're wanting to experience the Pappadeaux chain but just can't stand the commercial dinner experience, Lil' Pappa's is much better. Try sitting at the bar + enjoy a cocktail and the oysters (or anything on the menu). http://files.pappas.com/images/dyn/menus/menu_292.pdf
