If you want to show your content without any formatting, you could use Regex.Replace(input, "<.*?>", String.Empty) to strip all of Html tags from your string.

You could change in backend:

var model = new TestModel() { 
       Decription="<p><strong>Test</strong> is a Special Item in our <i>Restraunt</i>.</p>" 
};
model.Decription = Regex.Replace(model.Decription, "<.*?>", String.Empty);

Or change in frontend:

@model TestModel

@using System.Text.RegularExpressions;

<textarea type="text" name="Decription" class="form-control">@Regex.Replace(Model.Decription, "<.*?>", String.Empty)</textarea>
