    Service was wonderful, however the two main courses totaling $100 were very subpar, which is surprising for Cafe Carlo (rack of lamb and the Osso bucco special). Off-night in the kitchen? Not sure. Perhaps just stick with their pasta. A dinner date costing over $200...meh.

    Food was fantastic, we had the Caesar salad, fish tacos and the Wagyu beef gnocchi! It was all so delicious! We went out for my birthday, and service was great friendly and attentive. She a candle on my cake 😭 it’s the little things. There’s no question I will be coming back to eat!

    This was a lovely dinner with a friend and my first time at the restaurant. It has a lovely European vibe and the best creme brûlée I've had, even though my first was 30+ years ago in Paris.
