Carmine's on Penn

A true 5 star experience. Shockingly good food. Had a great server and service in general. I’d highly recommend the lemonchello to anyone. It’s house made and once or twice a week they squeeze their own lemons that go into the drink. Prices were pretty fair all things considered. Will be going back!

The service was average. It was NYE so busier than usual, I suppose. But the food...bleh. The chicken parm tasted like it was cooked in old oil. The sauce was so nondescript, it kept me longing for Raos jarred sauce. The rolls were hard and dry. The cocktail and house salad were delish, tho. Definitely not worth the cost. Olive Garden has richer, tastier marinara.

I went to the restaurant and it was just a disappointment. I was with my 8-month-old son and they left me waiting at the restaurant door. After a while, they took me to my reserved table. The food was the worst part. It shouldn't even be called carbonara. It didn't even smell like carbonara, and even though I tried to eat it like a pasta dish, it was still rum. I don't think it's the staff's fault. It seems like the restaurant doesn't have enough staff and everyone was trying hard, but obviously the customer isn't to blame either and should have been better received.

We had a wonderful night! And the food is an amazing as always. The Birthday Boy had never been, and was so pleased we came to your place. Thank you for a fantastic evening!!

The food was good. this place is very cute for a date night. we went on valentines night though and they definitely overbooked. we felt extremely rushed and ended up feeling sick by the end of the night because we had to eat our food and drink our bottle of wine so fast. it is good food but our overall experience makes me not want to come back here.
