    After dining at this gem for the past 3 decades and dozen of visits they outdid themselves on Valentines Day. The food was spectacular on a super busy evening. This place was hitting on all cylinders. Well done !

    Always enjoy delicious food and great service at Cafe Carlo. My husband enjoyed the seafood pasta and the veal parmesan was delicious. The portions are abundant!

    The food and value and service were all exceptional. My only complaint is that there was a LOUD patron near us and due to tables being sort of close, we were forced to listen to his swearing and constant banter. We would go back though as everything else was excellent.

    Cafe Carlo has consistently good food. Soups and bread are excellent. The pasta Vongole was decent, perhaps a bit too al dente, but good. Drinks are top quality though pricey. Portion sizes are average.

    I thought I had checked beforehand but I guess I didn't. I am a wheelchair user and there's a bit of a lip to get into the building that was difficult to navigate. Other than that everything was spectacular.
