- AAngelaWashington, D.C. Area •2 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI knew the portions would be large for 2-3 people but it was larger than expected! I went with a party of 3 and we all had leftovers. We got one appetizer, one pasta, and one shrimp dish. The complimentary bread was great too! Everything was very good! We ordered portobello parmigiana, penne alla vodka, and shrimp diavolo. Everything was very flavorful.More infoCarmine's - Washington DCPrice: Moderate• Italian• Penn Quarter•4.5

- JJ MichaelVIPNew York City •4 reviews4.0Dined 6 days agoFirst visit to see my stepdaughter in DC. The restaurant is a lttle off the beaten path, small and relatively intimate. There was a separate room with a large group celebrating so it was noisy. We all found the food delicious. Boys had the veal chop, my wife had the branzino, my daughter had the ravioli and I the pork tenderloin. The table shared tortellini. The wine I chose from the menu they did not have and substituted another unfamiliar to me. The waiter seemed to be having a bad day so service was average. Overall thoroughly enjoyed our meals and would recommend for the food.More infoSan LorenzoPrice: Expensive• Italian• Shaw•4.7

- GgaryWashington, D.C. Area •145 reviews5.0Dined on 22 Dec 2024Our service was excellent. When we asked about the wine by the glass, he had the sommelier come to discuss the choices which was super helpful. Our dinners were excellent, both the appetizers and the mains. Their brodetto is one of the best dishes we’ve experienced in DC.More infoModenaPrice: Expensive• Italian• Downtown•4.6
