- ZZipporahNew York City •7 reviews5.0Dined 3 days agoI had early dinner with my family (cousin and 2 children)as it was their 1st visit at Carmine's. I ordered up a bunch of food and appetizers. They loved everything and I kept reminding them that portions are family sized. They ended up eating too much of the appetizers and 1 was too full for the main courses (LOL) They loved everything including dessert. I was happy and so were they. It was a wonderful experience as waitstaff was excellent, everything was excellent. Will return again.More infoCarmine's - 91st Street - NYCPrice: Expensive• Italian• Upper West Side•4.7

It was loud but in part because there was a large party of 20’s who were having a wonderful group dinner. We could talk at our table. But the food was terrific.More infoHavana HeightsPrice: Moderate• Cuban• Washington Heights•4.4
