Arrived early and was told we could sit at the bar. Had a mango martini- superb. We were called for our table earlier than our reservation, and sat at a table that was out of the way of restaurant traffic. Everyone was friendly the hostess, the bartender and wait staff. We had the special- salmon stuffed with spinach,scallops and crab meat-amazing! It was a wonderful experience and I would highly recommend them and when in NYC again, they will be on my list of places to eat.

Seated promptly upon arrival. Was able to add a guest the day before. Food was excellent. Noise level was excellent. A individual in our party has a sensitivity to loud noise. She did not complain they seated us in a smaller area. Thanks again! See you soon!

I love Carmines. The food is portioned for sharing which makes the value good. A meat entree can be shared with 2 or maybe 3, the pasta easily with 4. The Upper West Side location tends to be less busy but we were there on Christmas so it was packed! Even though packed the service was very good. And all the food was tasty. We shared baked clams and garlic bread smothered in delicious cheese for appetizers. For seven, we had veal and chicken parmigiana, cheese ravioli, penne in vodka sauce and shrimp with spaghetti. We had leftovers to bring home. We also shared a half portion of Titanic for dessert (nicknamed Tugboat) which was a big delicious ice cream Sundae. A great end to a delicious Christmas dinner.

We plan our trip to NYC around eating at Carmine’s. This time we ate at the upper West Side location. We usually eat at the Times Square location. But this year it was booked solid for Christmas a month in advance. We were wowed again with an awesome meal at Carmines at 91st Street. We had the garlic bread with cheese. We always ask to add the cheese. So wonderful. We also split the lasagna. It is the best we have ever tasted. We brought over half of it home. I would recommend either Carmine’s to anyone wanting authentic Italian food at its best.

Spaghetti à la bolognaise et poulet parmiagani partagé entre 4 personnes. Cela nous a rassasié malgré la présence d'un gros mangeur. J'ai enlevé une étoile car une petite partie du poulet été cramée, mais c'est pas de chance. Je recommande néanmoins très largement ce restaurant qui permet de manger autre chose que des hamburgers à NYC. Arrivés 25min avant l'heure de notre réservation, nous avons néanmoins été servis immédiatement. Merci !
