- KKaylaVIPLas Vegas •3 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoAmazing experience here! The wait staff, ambiance, and food were all top notch. As a Carmel local this will now be one of our go to restaurants. The zucchini with bread basket appetizer was like nothing we’ve had before.. sooo delicious. My husband got the seafood pasta and said it was the best he’s had in his life and he orders it everywhere lol. I got the fig and asiago ravioli and it was soo so good, creamy yet light!! We got the warm filled donuts for dessert which were also amazing.More infoIl TegaminoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Carmel•4.5

- KKatieCoastal Georgia •1 review4.0Dined on Feb 2, 2025The food was excellent, homemade fresh pasta and delicious sauces. Would definitely return for the food; however, the noise level was horrible. It’s a small, quaint place with only a few tables inside and we were seated next to a large party (which took up 85% of the dining room) who were loud, rude, and drunk. The food was lovely but our table couldn’t even hear eachother or the waitress. If you go, request to sit outside or your ears will be ringing by the end of your meal!More infoEnzo Ristorante ItalianoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Carmel•4.3
