Carmine's is a family style restaurant offering exceptional value to its guests through the many dishes of Southern Italian cuisine. Restaurateur Artie Cutler crafted Carmine's with a singular vision; bringing his guests abundant portions and making any meal feel like an Italian American wedding feast.

Platters of made to order pasta, decadent seafood or meat entrees, and of course homemade desserts are all staples at Carmine's, meant for sharing among friends and family. When great food and wine are supported by friendly and knowledgeable service, the results are magic - we want every day to feel like a Sunday afternoon at Grandma's!

We are open for Indoor & Outdoor Dining, Pick-up, Delivery, Catering and Private Parties.

Your safety is our priority. As of 3/7/22, NYC no longer requires proof of vaccination to dine indoors. Indoor & Outdoor dining are available.

    We were visiting from out of town. We have eaten at this restaurant several times and enjoyed it very much. We took our niece and her husband to the restaurant after telling them how wonderful it was. We were so disappointed tonight after our waiter greeted us and started our service then disappeared. Another waiter came to our table after a very long wait to tell us she would help our waiter serve us because he had to take a break. She went on to explain he had worked a double shift. We understand he probably did need a break; however, the restaurant should’ve assigned us another server who could’ve taken care of us properly. She couldn’t handle the extra tables. We were so disappointed.

    We were early to our table reservations so we decided to do bar seating and we are so glad that we did!!! Miguel at the bar was very hospitable and attentive even though he had a bar full of people, even on a Monday night. Haven’t been to Carmine’s in a considerable amount of time, however, the moment you take that first bite you remember why it’s still a delicious and solid dining choice!!!

    Réservation pour 19h30, nous sommes arrivés à 19h25, nous avons dû attendre debout dans l’entrée, avec deux personnes âgées pendant 40 minutes, avant d’être enfin placés. Service bâclé, on vous pousse systématiquement à la consommation en vous mentant sur les quantités des plats, de ce fait il restera beaucoup de nourriture en fin de repas à jeter… quel gâchis. Mais le pire est au moment de l’addition, Une note de 410 dollars, pourboire inclu, je donne 250 dollars en liquide plus ma CB pour le solde, quel ne fut pas ma stupeur en voyant le règlement par CB sur le ticket : 210 dollars (la serveuse a simplement « oublié » d’enregistrer un billet de 50 … et pour expliquer la situation et faire avouer l’erreur ce fut très très compliqué, jusqu’au responsable de salle, mais personne ne voulait admettre. Au final ils ont corrigé le montant pris sur CB. Mon sentiment : un gros piège à TOURISTES fuyez, ce restaurant n’a rien de spécial, c’est très cher, le service très mauvais et parfois ils essaient de vous voler

    Food and service were amazing. The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is because my girlfriend left her wallet there and within one hour… all of her credit cards were stolen and hacked. We’re from DC where things like this are unlikely to happen at high end restaurants. But I guess it’s the whole New York experience. Other than that… great. :)

    The people who work the hostess station are extremely rude. They even threatened to call security on a 11 year old boy with cerebral palsy because he needed to lean on the desk as there was no where to sit while you waited and they were VERY particular on who could approach the hostess/check in desk. Of note we waited 20 minutes after our reservation time, hence him needing to lean. When I told the manager he apologized however, when we asked for a small bowl of plain pasta for the boy (everything was large family style) they said “no”. They do a hell of a business and the message they send is that frankly they don’t need your business. Quite unfortunate.

    Carmine’s is always packed with people. A reservation is the only way to go. I really enjoyed our meal this time. We got shrimp with linguini in a red sauce. It wasn’t a thick red sauce; there were chunks of tomatoes in it. The shrimp were a nice size and everything was cooked perfectly.
