In a meal which included cocktail, appetizers, entrees and desserts, there was only one flaw. My octopus appetizer had been cooked to the point of becoming rubber, which could barely be cut by a knife. All other items in our meals were cooked to perfection and were delicious.

We love this place. I sincerely hope you are lucky enough to get Brian as a waiter. He is knowledgeable, very friendly, takes pride in serving and is just an all around good human. (No I don’t know him personally-he’s really just that good). It makes the experience of Carbone’s even better, and that’s saying something as the quality is spot on. Try one of their specialty cocktails as well, you won’t be disappointed.

We went to Carbone's and hit the Restaurant week so we had that menu. We started with the calamari, which we always have when we go to Carbone's. It was excellent and we feel the best around. My wife had the salmon which was very good. The portion was adequate. I had the filet which was outstanding and perfectly cooked. The sauce was exquisite. The salads and desert were great. I also liked the martini. The only issue is the parking. The mosque across the street will not allow Carbone's patrons to park there anymore. Carbone's parking lot is very small so you will have to find a place to park in the street. The doorman, who is very nice, let's you know as soon as you pull into the lot. He is a nice person. Carbone's is always a great place to go.
