    Very rude man on the door barking at everyone. Made to wait over 30mins for a pre-booked table, clearly they are overbooking. Dealt poorly with an allergen query, one of our party could only eat lettuce, surely they could have cooked one meal to sort the issue.

    Very busy which I’d expect for NYC, however, we had a table booked for 6.45pm and didn’t get taken until 7.15pm. We were seated and our female server introduced herself. I found her to be quite sullen. We ordered drinks to the table. My husband got his beer taken over, but I waited approx 15 mins for my drink and he was almost finished his lager. I was a bit dissapointed to find out they only serve dishes to serve at least 2 people, so there was alot of waste as my husband doesn’t enjoy pasta 🫣 The lasagne was disappointing. Maybe it was made more authentically to the lasagne I’m used to, but I didn’t really enjoy it. It had ricotta cheese instead of white sauce which I prefer. I took it away in a doggy bag, so The homeless ate well that night. Lovely place though with good buzzing atmosphere so if your in a party that all enjoy pasta then great, I personally just wouldn’t order lasagne again.

    The food is really good. My wife and I shared the lasagna and it was definitely large enough to share. The restaurant was packed, but what would you expect at Christmas in New York. Definitely advise making a reservation or the wait will be loooong. We would eat here again.

    We loved the atmosphere but would have liked the music lowered a bit. Staff was friendly and food was great. Is it possible to have some appetizers offered as small plates? Just thinking sometimes if your out of town can’t keep the left overs and would want to add an appetizer but its too much. Just a thought.

    Most of the serving staff in the area we were sat were rude. Couldn’t really be bothered to let us finish what we were asking about things on the menus and one waiter even blatantly ignored us when we called and tapped him to ask what was one of the drinks he was serving on the next table. We were made to feel rushed and Americans were treated a lot nicer and had more time spent with them when they were ordering. Our experience in the carmines on 91st street was so much better.

    Second year in a row with a 45 minute wait even though reservations were made well in advance. We were tired from standing so long, having traveled all day. Server went awol at end of the meal. Had to wait a considerable amount of time to get someone to bring the check. Drinks are seriously overpriced. Don’t think I’ll be returning on our annual trip next year.

    Food is just decent, the fact that they don’t offer 1/2 size portions for salads and sides is ridiculous when you have a party of 2. Caesar salad for two is $33 because of that absurdity. Our server ‘forgot’ to enter our order which caused a 20 min delay. Frankly I don’t think it’s worth the time and money to eat there.

    We were very disappointed with service, waiter came over took drink order and I asked for sugar twice never came and got my own. Never came back till after dinner. Was told he went on break because of working double, Management never told us. Wrong item of food came out, after that we were told 1 of the items were sold out over-all it wasn't the Christmas experience I expected out of Carmine's, I think the management should have done something to compensate for such a dismal dining experience but everything was work until we got are waiter back after dinner.

    We were seated 15 minutes after our reservation, which I thought was actually amazing being there were mobs of people waiting and the restaurant was packed. Our waiter was personable, quick, and available for anything we needed. Our food was absolutely delicious! We just wish it wasn’t quite so loud to make it easier to hear each other. Overall it was a great dinner out in the big apple!

    There was Broken glass on our table when we were seated. Not just chipped but half shattered. Broken pitcher was given to us for table water. We brought it to the servers attention and he said I know its broken but didn’t bring a different one. He seemed very preoccupied with a larger table that ordered more food than we did. An appetizer we ordered never came out. The food was delicious and SO MUCH which was great. But the service should have been much better
