We visit Atlantic City once or twice a year, Carmine's is THE place for dinner when we visit. Meals are always excellent, service impeccable. We had the Stuffed Artichokes for appetizer and the PorterHouse steak with sausage, peppers, onions and potatoes, both were outstanding while the portions were more than our party of four could finish. If you love family style Italian dining, like we do, you'll love Carmine's. We will definitely be dining there in the future.

Service was amazing. Our server John was lovely. Explained everything since it was the first time being there. Portions sizes are amazing. We ordered garlic bread, linguine with marinara sauce and plain chicken cutlets. Everything was amazing but I did not care for the chicken cutlets. It’s a personal preference of why I did not care for them (soggy breading) but everyone is different.

We were here for a birthday dinner. Everything was great, except for our waiter. It made us feel like he didn’t want to serve us not sure why. He made it seem like we were a bother. We love this place for big parties so we will dine here again.
