Carmelo's Italian Ristorante

We celebrated our anniversary with family and friends and it was perfect! We dinned outdoors, and it was lovely! The musician was talented, server so attentive. We ordered several different wines, they offer a great selection to satisfy all wine lovers. We multiple appetizers, and entrees, portions were very generous. Everything was incredible! Can’t wait for our next visit!

I took my incredibly good looking wife out for our valentines day dinner. We had a phenomenal time at the bar. The three guys working at the bar were fantastic. They took great care of us. My wife got the soup and talked about it all night long. We would love to spend out next valentine's dinner at carmelos. It was so romantic!

Carmelo's has become one of our family's go-to restaurant in Punta Gorda, and every visit reminds us why we keep returning. From the moment you walk in, you feel welcome. It's the kind of place where the food is consistently excellent and the experience always feels personal from Steve, one of the managers, to the servers, bartenders, and runners. A few standouts for us: the Bada Bing is a must-order every time, I honestly can't start a meal without it. The Penne alla Vodka is rich and perfectly done, and their beef carpaccio is some of the best I've had anywhere. What really sets Carmelo's apart for me, though, is how well they handle my celiac disease. As someone who has to be extremely careful about gluten, dining out can be stressful and often just not worth the risk. Carmelo's h

As a husband of a south philly italian we were stunned we finally found incredible italian food in fl. We lived here 4 years and sad we just found this spot. Service was incredible. Had one person clearing the table and bringing water and drinks prompt. You have to get the bada bing! Not on the menu. Great presentation and fantastic. I had the filet with truffle mash and an amazing white chocolate raspberry martini. Wife had the gorgonzola cream scalops tourt and pears sacchettini milani. Our main server was loyal and wrote nothing down a sign of a pure og server. Finished off with creme brulee and Tiramisu. Parking is hard to find so we parked near the court house street . Will be back again

The food is amazing & our waiter Beau was exceptional! Thank you for the wonderful experience. We come every year now & Can’t wait to be back. -Your friends from Richmond VA
