Best Restaurants for Outdoor Dining in Harlem

I had early dinner with my family (cousin and 2 children)as it was their 1st visit at Carmine's. I ordered up a bunch of food and appetizers. They loved everything and I kept reminding them that portions are family sized. They ended up eating too much of the appetizers and 1 was too full for the main courses (LOL) They loved everything including dessert. I was happy and so were they. It was a wonderful experience as waitstaff was excellent, everything was excellent. Will return again.

Some really amazing dishes (filet mignon skewers, sweet potatoe side dish) Some not so great (duck and lobster kabob) But overall a beautiful restaurant , hit or miss on the main dishes, but overall a great restaurant. Willl go back .

If you find a better value in the city, let alone on the upper West Side, please let me know. I'm always impressed by the quality of both the food and the service. It is not easy to be attentive without being intrusive. The staff at Cafe Luxembourg has apparently mastered that talent. As for the kitchen, they've been scoring 10's for as long as I can remember. I'm very appreciative of being able to enjoy a restaurant like this, where the food and service are both consistently superior and at a price that is most assuredly reasonable.

Gluten allergy - they consistently take great care to make sure that I know my food was prepared with my allergy considered. Love getting my red flags. Staff is fantastic. Food is consistently delicious

Every year its always the best dinner! I bring my staff for our after Christmas Christmas celebration for the past 30 years and we are never disappointed. This year we added a new dish their special ....it was chicken on top of spinach with peppers and cheese and roasted potato in a piccata sauce, simply delicious!!! And of course we saw " our Ralph" for many years we enjoy his smile and his welcoming deameanor, Ralph is one of a kind!!! ❤️
