Carnal focuses on the bold flavors of wood fire and caramelization balanced with acidic, raw, and seasonal elements. We are a passionate group of cooks who do not cut corners and hope that is evident when you try our food. Our signature dish is a bone-in beef rib that is sous-vide before grilling over an open wood fire and finished with rendered bone-marrow. We source many of our ingredients from local farms and fisheries.

Took several customers to lunch today. Anthony's was great. We came with an extra person, they made up a larger table and made the whole process seemless. Great food as always and the service was excellent.

Had a lovely meal here today! Food was very tasty and service was unpretentious and efficient! We were greeted with a warm welcoming smile from the moment we arrived. Can’t wait to go back - sitting by the windows had a lovely view of the boats in the harbor. Highly recommend!

Loved the dinner. The salmon and steak were perfect. The rice was tasty. The broccoli rabe was not an ideal vegetable. A roasted root vegetable would have been better. The bread was mealy- try a lefsa next time.
