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.

We have eaten at carmine’s over the years and never been disappointed. This year we had Christmas Eve and Christmas Day dinner at Carmine’s. As in the past we were not disappointed. In fact everything seemed better than in previous years. We highly recommend carmine’s for a real treat in dining experience.

About the restaurant
Girasole brings the charm of the old world to Atlantic City. From the moment you enter this bright, airy restaurant, you are whisked away to a Mediterranean café. The aroma of handmade pasta dishes, fresh seafood & gourmet brick oven pizza fills the air. Dine in the impeccably decorated restaurant or, in the warmer months, enjoy lunch or dinner on the lush garden patio. Indulge in a specialty cocktail from the bar & enjoy hors d'oeuvres, carpaccios & much more, all in sunny ambience.

Never a bad, or disappointing, meal over the years going to this BYOB. Sometimes, noise level can be high, but that's because certain customers constantly speak at a level you could hear from across the street, causing others to raise their voices.
