Carmine's is a family style restaurant offering exceptional value to its guests through the many dishes of Southern Italian cuisine. Restaurateur Artie Cutler crafted Carmine's with a singular vision; bringing his guests abundant portions and making any meal feel like an Italian American wedding feast.

Platters of made to order pasta, decadent seafood or meat entrees, and of course homemade desserts are all staples at Carmine's, meant for sharing among friends and family. When great food and wine are supported by friendly and knowledgeable service, the results are magic - we want every day to feel like a Sunday afternoon at Grandma's!

    Always love a Carmines dinner.. good and drink are always spectacular - service usually is too.. but not this time. Waiter was very unattentive, we didn’t get our water until the food came, never got a refill on a soda. When we got our check there was $85 worth of drinks from another table on our bill.. which was removed promptly but I’m glad I checked! As a former Virgil’s worker, this was my most disappointing trip to carmines ever.

    We had 2:45 reservations, we had to wait about 30 minutes for our table. Our waiter was very nice, but not attentive, never asked for drinks, never refill drinks, never checked in on us. We were always asking others for things needed. Food was very good. Unfortunately, service took away from the experience, but the restaurant definitely has potential.

    When we got to the restaurant, it started out a bit rough. Our party was late to the reservation which we take account for but the hostess there was very rude explaining why many other groups were being called while our group waited almost an hour to be called. We asked for the manager and upon us walking to the manager to speak with her, the hostess spoke under her breathe saying "yeah go talk to her" while my husband heard while standing in front of the check in stand by the door. As someone who worked in customer service for 8+ years and work as a journalist for the tristate area, I know first hand first impressions is everything and if Carmines want their customers to have a good first impression, a hostess like that isn't the way. Yes, the holidays are stressful, but it's not what you say, it's how you say it. And if someone feels overwhelmed or overstimulated, please step off the floor and take a moment because kindness goes a long way. However, the kind female manager heard us and showed caring and understanding hospitality. She explained in a nice manner the reason behind the wait. In less than 5 minutes, we were seated. Our waiter was amazing. His energy and service was beyond and he made up for the rough experience early on. Throughout the night, our food was great, quality was amazing and the manager who assisted us earlier came back and checked in, even offered us a desert since the dinner was a special one for my mother who is a survivor of open heart surgery. Overall, our experience was pretty good. Thank you to the staff at carmines who take pride in their jobs and hospitality to their customers.
