Whenever I go to NYC, I always make a reservation at Carmine's for lunch or dinner. It is my favorite restaurant for delicious, authentic Italian food!! And I order some extra to take home for the next night too! The place is packed no matter what time you go, so you must have a reservation.

Our server was fine, initially- He brought a round of cocktails and took our order, but he left our table halfway through our meal, turning us over to another server. The second server introduced himself, but when we tried to get his attention to order some wine (and get more water for the table), he said we now had a third server. She was clearly busy and finally brought the wine and water and several minutes later, cleared away our empty dishes. The food was fine. The prices were fine. But honestly the dinner was spoiled by the service. Dishes were brought to the table with no regard to other dishes we were still working on. We had a platter of calamari and a platter of Caesar salad we were still working on, when a chicken and seafood entree were crammed onto our small table. We were trying to eat the entrees while they were still hot, but we wanted to enjoy the appetizer and salad, too. It was just a disorganized mess. Our check was $400, and for that price, we expected more.

We have eaten at Carmine's for over 20 years especially during the holidays. Sometimes we go for special occasions like today. We were a party of 8 with a toddler in a high chair. The food is consistently excellent. We love the ambience. The service with Annette as our waitress was exceptional. The drinks are great too! We can easily have conversation across a large round table without a problem hearing each other. Just make sure to make a reservation especially if you are a large party.
