Our family of 6 comes here every year during the holidays. We found our meal somewhat disappointing. Portions for the family size meal seemed smaller. They didn’t even give us bread for everyone. Even the Carmine’s salad seemed to have less peppers and olives (the good stuff). After we were served our waitress never came back to check if we needed another drink. I think we will find some place else to eat next year.

Food was decent, but not mind blowing. The best thing I ate there were the cannolis. Absolutely perfect. Disappointed that I mentioned in our reservation notes thar we were celebrating birthdays and despite everyone else with birthdays being sung to or their dessert having candles, nothing happened at our table for us.

The portions are crazy big I would not recommend it for groups less than four We were also disappointed that they weren’t able to honor my Caesars anniversary dinner hundred dollars towards a meal but they could take Caesars reward credits Kind of contradictory and the reason we chose this place was because I wanted to use my anniversary certificate before the end of the year

Although it is understandably family-style Italian dining, it should not be a place for corporate companies to have “convention-like meetings/awards recognition” which is what happened at my birthday dinner in AC. My husband and I couldn’t even have a conversation without shouting. The group was that obnoxious and we will never dine at Carmine’s again. We’ve been to other family-style Italian restaurants and have never experienced anything of the like, i.e. Ralph’s, Maggiano’s, Buca di Beppo when it was open etc. They have rooms for those types of events. Food was good but the manager didn’t even try to appease or suggest a solution. Worst birthday experience I’ve ever had.

Ordered, calamari was decent. Eggplant Parmesan was tough. Porterhouse Contandina was salty, Sausage was poor quality, only food that was to our liking was the Ravioli. Have eating at Carmine 2-3 times a year, done with Carmines for a while.
