the food was pretty sweet and the dessert was delicious. however! the server was extremely rude to us for no reason when we asked for another glass because we ordered wine for two and it came in one single glass filled to the brim. made no sense.

Great Italian dishes in this place! This is a family sized portion of food place though. So you better bring 3 others with you.

Simply amazing â˜ºï¸ the staff was super nice and the food was plentiful and phenomenal. Only word of advice I would say is they give you BIG portions so if it is just you and one other person I would even suggest sharing a main dish. Also they allow booking reservations online so consider that if you have a big party!

We had dinner here on Christmas Eve and it was great. We made reservations about 6 months in advance for 6:30pm, got there around 6:15 and we sat down right around 6:30. Our waiter's name was Drew and he was amazing! Gave us recommendations and was super helpful. Our drinks were never empty and they cleared our table and brought us clean plates as needed. The food was great, we were so full we didn't even have room for dessert. I highly recommend going here!

Expensive, but worth it if you like Italian food. Service was good, drinks were good and food was excellent. If you're a shrimp parm lover, they have the best I've ever tasted. I even got parking on the street!

My favorite restaurant in the world! Every time we have any celebration or night out, this is the place we eat. Last night was no exception. The service was really great and the food equally great. If you want great Italian food, great atmosphere and great service then you have to go.

if you want to have a portion for 6 people, this place is for you. The Garlic bread is amazing but the chicken parm, meatballs and sauce were okay. Nice atmosphere, way too extensive for the quality of food, which I would say is average at best.

The food was delicious & the portions meant only for sharing as the food is served family style. My salad was 25.00 but enough for 5 or more. I was impressed as it had all sorts of fresh fruits such as sliced pears, walnuts were so delicious. Chicken & veal parmigiana was exquisite. Pasta with garlic & olive oil was devine. It had whole cloves of roasted garlic. The meal was over 150.00 so be ready to pay for this scrumptious meal & worth it. PS I ate 2 meals at home n still had salad left over. Yummy is Carmine's

Our waiter was so funny and polite. I forget his name. I asked if they have lemonade and the waiter said we have two different kinds: regular or freshly squeezed strawberry lemonade. Yum! Immediately ordered the strawberry lemonade and had 2 of them.This place is always very clean pertaining to plates, cups and silverware . I hate going to restaurants where I see water marks. Food is absolutely delicious and big portions. The shrimp cocktail had the biggest shrimp I have ever seen!! So juicy and I love the fact they cleaned the shrimp( no shells or legs and took out the vein/line on the top) cocktail sauce was delicious with a little hint of spicy! Penne a la vodka with shrimp was the best I have ever tasted. A lot of flavor. My second time here and I will definitely be back !
