We went for my daughter’s Birthday. Originally had a reservation for 6 they immediately accommodated us for 7. Security at the door, good choice. He was a gentleman and he set the tone of the restaurant being warm and friendly. My In laws came from Brooklyn and they are quite elderly but were able to walk up a few stairs. Table was big enough for all of us. Hugo our waiter was top notch and didn’t miss a bit. Food came out quickly. The calamari and tomatoe and mozzarella salad was excellent, our main dishes even better, Penne a la Vodka, chicken parm, meatballs and chicken scallopini. All served hot and enough to feed all 7 of us and we brought the rest home. The atmosphere was excellent as well. Good vibe.

Not the same as 42nd street. The service was terrible. My dad ordered.a beer didn’t get it until after we informed 2-3 waiters. (Over 30 min). Ordered shrimp parmigiana it was extremely salty. We had left overs and were missing my dad eggplant parmigiana that was barely touched. Instead received not even a 1/3 of salad. Do not recommend this location.

Carmine's has been one our favorites in New York and we were looking forward to this reservation. Unfortunately, last night was our first very disappointing experience at Carmine's. Our waitress was completely non-attentive. We waited forever for refills and never even received 2 lemonades that were ordered. The food to our surprise was also disappointing. It was bland and unremarkable. Overall a waste of $400.
