Carpe Diem

We are always trying to find little Gems and unique places to eat when we travel some good and some bad. First off I have to say when we first came in we were a little nervous seeing only one man run tables and bar top counter. They were not overly busy but still for one person a lot to do! That being said we took a chance and waited it out, which wasn’t long at all. We tried the spaghetti and meatballs and the chicken fettuccine specials. Let me tell the Food was fantastic! Did not disappoint. Everything was home cooked a those meatballs were killer! But most of all to the gentlemen running the show ( I think the owner) who was our waiter. You sir made the whole experience even better so we thank you! it was as if we were family just eating a small lunch just hanging out on a Saturday af

Its a nice and cozy place to seat and eat. The people are very friendly and cordial. They also have a decent menu with many options. I enjoyed their food. You have to park in front of the restaurant.

My experience at Carpe Diem was very nice it is a place that I would love to come back to often if I lived close by The food was really good we had ordered omelettes and coffee. plus the fresh bread left me feeling satisfied. The owner Nino took really good care of us Made sure we had everything we needed.

And Carpe Diem popped up. I read the reviews, checked the neighborhood and the area seemed calm with plenty of street parking. We decided to give it a chance. Google still had street view pictures of the previous business which didn't help. When we arrived, the place was really nice and updates with some small trees on the front which made that place much more inviting. That day was pretty quiet, we picked a table and the owner Nino took care of us. He is really nice. You can see what we ordered on the pictures and we made a couple of substitutions that Nino had no issues with. Everything was good.

I absolutely adore the vibe of Carpe Diem. From the moment you walk in, it feels like you’re transported to another country. The relaxing, tropical music in the background instantly puts you at ease, and every time I’m there it somehow makes me think of Italy. The owner is incredibly accommodating and such a joy to talk to—he loves to joke and is a great conversationalist, which makes the experience feel so personal and welcoming. The food has been wonderful every time. Everything tastes fresh, especially the bread. The coffee is amazing too—I’ve had their cappuccino a few times and it’s always lovely. Sometimes he even adds a little chocolate surprise with the coffee, which is the sweetest touch. I highly recommend coming here. You’re not just coming for great food—you’re coming for th
