    We had a most wonderful evening at Carmine's. Ryan took special care of us. He made sure it was an evening for us to remember, while providing exceptional service! Thank you Ryan! The rack of lamb, veal chop, sweet breads, carpaccio, all exceptional. Chef Juan, having been there, many years, is still putting out beautiful plates and most delicious food! It was lovely to spend the evening, in a place I've known so well, seeing that it remains one of the best restaurants in Seattle!

    Contender for Seattle's best Italian food. Infatuation has reviewed as more life-affirming than a night at the symphony, and it was a satisfied feeling leaving the restaurant. Service was very efficient, and it seems like a good sign when a server has been there for 4 years. The tajarin was delicate and flavor nice, although no visible or real flavor of the sage, but $33 could reasonably be $23. Rapini was nice and cavatelli was homemade and nice with broccoli as a vegetarian subsitute for rabbit. Choclate tart with hazelnut and cherry was a beautiful sight and worth returning for (and not over-priced). A good spot for anniversary.
