Two adults and 2 children could only eat half of one entrée and a third of the salad. We packaged it up and gave to the homeless. Good for a group and quite tasty.

The atmosphere is great if you have a large family with kids. Since it is loud and family style dinning. Not where you want to bring someone for a romantic date. The food used to be better. I have noticed the busier the restaurant the worse the food was. We went the week of Christmas so you can only imagine... More

My family and I went to Carmines on a recommendation from a friend who used to perform on Broadway and it was definitely a good recommendation. My wife and I loved the food and our 9, and 11 year old though the food was good. We did not know were the restaurant was located when we booked or show but... More

I had made lunch reservations for a party of 2 and we were seated upstairs right away. We had a very friendly waitress who gave us some great ordering advice. The bread basket alone would have filled us up! My friend and I shared the Spiedini alla Romana appetizer and it was delicious (and unique). We then shared the Penne... More

Do not go with fewer than four people; there are no options for smaller groups, and it's a terrible waste of food and money.

We make it a point to go to Carmine's when we travel to New York semi-annually to go to Broadway. We always have loved the food and service, but this time we found the food to be a little disappointing as the lasagna sauce seemed less rich and more of an acid tomato taste.

Went with friends to this restaurant and thought it was brilliant. Tasty food, 1 dish was enough for 4 to eat and get full up on. We ordered two dishes and hardly touched the other dish, they did give us a doggy bag to take home the left overs though. Was very busy, we didnt make a reservation but I... More

Make sure you travel here with friends. The food was great. Atmosphere was friendly and helpful. THe portions are huge - picture huge then double it-so having a group really lets you try out a lot of dishes. Come hungry!!!

We found Carmine's by chance while trying to get our bearings in the city and decided to give it a go. So glad we did, the atmosphere is fantastic, a real buzz about this place. We had to wait for a table for about 30 minutes but it was well worth it. The portion sizes are enormous and the food... More
