Crispy, Soft, and Full of Flavor

Why the Tuscan Breadstick Tower Stands Out
The Tuscan Breadstick Tower takes Carrabba’s famous bread — the warm, herbed loaf served before every meal — and turns it into a shareable appetizer. Freshly baked breadsticks are brushed with garlic butter, dusted with Parmesan, and stacked into a fun tower presentation with marinara for dipping.
The appeal is part flavor, part theater. The tower shape makes it a conversation piece, and pulling breadsticks from the stack is more fun than a bread basket. It’s designed for the table to share.
As a newer menu item (it carries a “NEW!” label), it taps into the trend of turning signature sides into standalone starters.
Nutrition Context
At 770 calories with roughly 20g of protein, 35g of fat, and 90g of carbs, this is a carb-heavy appetizer — essentially a bread course. The fat comes from the garlic butter and Parmesan; the protein is modest.
As a shared starter for three or four, the per-person impact is reasonable. The sodium is listed as high, typical for a buttery, cheesy bread.
Ordering Tips
Listed under Appetizers, the Tuscan Breadstick Tower is available for dine-in, curbside pickup, or online ordering. Note the wheat, dairy, and egg allergens. Prices may vary by location.
Bread is best fresh and warm — if you’re getting takeout, eat it soon after pickup. This is an ideal “while you wait” order: it arrives fast, feeds the table, and pairs with the Classic Red Sangria recommended above.
