Carmine's On Penn

We love Carmine’s. It is always good. Always.

It's been a long time since I was last at Carmine's, but it never disappoints. Excellent all the way around!

Had to remind bartender that we ordered drinks 15 minutes ago. Had to ask for bread for our table. Yes busy Saturday night, but when staff is just chatting with other customers very frustrating. The food was DELICIOUS so worth the long wait.

Excellent food, relaxed atmosphere.

Some of the best Italian food in Denver. Very generous proportions and overall great quality.

Anthony “Tony” was amazing and deserves a raise. Will be back because of him

Love this place! Awesome food, great service and lots of memories from our many times here. Great special day place to eat at.

Go early as the restaurant get very busy and loud after 7pm. Great service from the entire wait staff. Everyone is very attentive.

First I want to say Carmine's on Penn was amazing the atmosphere the staff was very friendly our waiter was great on recommending food deserts also the bartender on drinks. me and my girlfriend really enjoyed it and we will be going back thank you so much for an amazing night..

We havent been there for a few years. Still an amazing meal and value. Chicken parm is awesome!! We have enough leftorvers for 2 more meals. An amazing value, delicious and great experience.

We love Carmine’s on Penn because it is consistently fantastic! For Valentine’s Day they put flower petals down for our meal which was a beautiful touch. The food blows us away every time we go. The food is made fresh with love and has a depth of flavor that makes each bite perfection. We highly recommend the meatballs in vodka sauce. The service was great and our waiter helped us make good pairing choices with food and drinks. 10 stars as always!

Food was excellent as usual and our waiter Nate was the best as always! Can’t wait to enjoy carmines again soon!

Carmine's is a friendly neighborhood spot that's been pumping out carbo intensive Italian food for years now. I wouldn't make a trip across town to eat here, but it's a nice amenity for those of us who live close by.

Great place

Food and service were excellent. Will return soon. Great Italian

Great all around! We’ll be back!

Always a good experience at Carmines. Over 20 years of dining. It does seem like the portions are getting a bit smaller.

Wonderful food and wine. The owner even stopped by the table to say hi and see how everything was. We will be heading back soon.

Great place to have a family-style meal! Our server was friendly and made sure we were happy and taken care of. I’ll definitely come back.

The restaurant was clean and the staff was friendly. That aside, the experience was super disappointing for a place that is supposed to be a Denver institution. Terrible antipasti: almost nothing but bread and deep fried. The cheese and meat were not higher quality than you could get at a grocery store. The tiramisu was also terrible. Portions were huge but that is not a good thing, it’s just a big thing. It’s like time stopped for this restaurant 30 years ago. Would not recommend.

The salad and the Canolis were very good, however, the Chicken Picota was not. The chicken was rubbery and the sauce had too strong of a lemon flavor. It was like a frozen dinner prepared in a microwave.

We haven't been to Carmine's On Penn for quite some time, and wondered if we would like it as much as we used to. Well, they didn't disappoint! We had a wonderful pear salad to start, then shared the Eggplant Parmesan and Seasonal Gnocchi. We enjoyed everything. Our granddaughter (4) loved her kids pasta. Our server was Isabella, and she did a great job. Pricing is fair for what you get.

We will definitely be back!

good family style dining
Waiter Nate gave excellent suggestions leading to a quite enjoyable and tasty meal

First time to Carmine’s and we really enjoyed it. As new residents to Denver, we had received recommendations to visit this restaurant and now we know why.

The food was very good and so was the service. There was a nice wine list that featured wines from Italy to pair well with the food.

Overall a very nice experience. Will be on our rotation of great neighborhood locations for dinner.

Everything was amazing from the salad to the desert. Very courteous staff.

It was far too loud for a date, way too much food. Every single table had to take leftovers. Such a waste. And way to costly for pasta!

terrific food..a bit pricey..very enjoyable..would definitely recommend ..

Just had my second lunch of leftovers from our visit. Outstanding!

Food was tasty, as always. Our female waiter was grumpy. I think she was bummed it was a slow Tuesday night. It was too bad, because it marred the experience.

Carmine’s is an absolute must for any local or from out of town. All I can say is, Carmine’s is a genuine gem!!!!!

The Gang at Carmines continue to out do themselves as we enjoyed yet another fabulous dinner on Tuesday evening. Played it safe, order the Chicken Parm as we've done many times before, KNOCKED it out of the park again! Nothing compares, great, Great, GREAT Job....again!

Marie, thanks for your patience!! :)

Thank you!

Anthony was terrific
Good value for party of 8 and he made spot on recommendations for portions

We always have a really great experience here. Chaz offers wonderful recommendations and we always enjoy the food at Carmine’s on Penn.

This is the second time we have dined at Carmine’s On Penn and it was outstanding just like the first. We brought our son (DU college student)this time with us. He too was impressed. Excellent customer service our waiter was the BEST. The Italian food is outstanding!!! You have to make reservations no matter what day of the week. It’s a very popular restaurant and once you’ve dined here you’ll know why.

Great food, great service, and a nice cozy restaurant. We love this place.

Always a great meal- consistently great food! We always leave very full and very happy!

We started with mussels which were outstanding! Our main course was the two daily specials of gnocchi and ravioli. Both were quite tasty. Service was excellent. We will definitely be back!

Great food

Always a great experience. Delicious food, laid back ambiance and an excellent wait staff.

One of our favorite places. It's a little on the pricey side but you do get family style portion sizes, so it evens out for the most part. Their bread that they bring out in the beginning is amazing! Buttery garlicy soft yummy goodness. We love their chicken Montana. ☺️
