    The evening was fabulous, the server was attentive without being intrusive. The meal was excellent and the wine recommendation was perfect and not over priced. Will go back

    Excellent service, never rushed, accommodated request for large booth for two as it was a quiet night. Had lamb and sea bass this trip and it was superb. Must try, we come into town 3-4 per year and always eat here.

    Overall I liked the food, however it was our anniversary and we did request them to provide us with some sort of treat to make us feel special on that day, but they completely did not pay a heed to that. We were disappointed with our experience as it just seemed like any other day to us.

    First time visiting Carisma. Excellent food and good wine list. You can tell that they take great care in what they serve. Very good value. Service was a bit uneven but that can happen and it won't prevent me from returning. Yes. I will definitely be back.
