Best Restaurants for Groups in Carroll Gardens

Absolutely phenomenal experience from start to finish. Austin took care of us and just made us feel right at home. Made great recommendations to us and just did pretty perfect service overall. It was very loud which was expected and didn’t bother us all that much, what was a little annoying was these people beside us with ring lights blinding us all dinner but other than that, perfect service all the way through. Couldn’t recommend the tasting menu enough!!! Great value with so many great options:)

2nd time and it was just as good as I remembered. Get the meatballs in the cherry sauce and then the rest of the menu.

it was a birthday - my friends had been before it was my first time and it was excellent

Everything was delicious, service was impeccable. I love to see teamwork. The hostess, servers and busboy were very attentive, fast and knowledgeable. The noise level and ambiance was perfect. All the food came out in a quick succession — appetizers/ wine, the pizza/ more wine, main course, then dessert. We had a small table, and with each course, the staff was attentive and cleared our table, replaced plates and utensils and packed the food we couldn’t finish — then moved onto the next! The food was AMAZING. My favorite dish was the forest mushroom pizza, which I highly recommend. It has Truffle Roasted Mushrooms, Scallions, Fontina al Agosta. We also ordered: - polpette meatballs: Meatballs that Beat Bobby Flay! San Marzano Tomatoes. Three Per Order - cacio e pepe: Linguine, Parmigiana-Reggiano, Black Pepper. - penne bolognese - Chianti - sauvignon blanc - malbec - tiramisu: Savoiardi, Mascarpone, Amaretto, Cocoa. Wish we could have tried more on their menu. Everything we ordered was top notch. Highly recommend!

Raf's is such a gem! The food, service and ambience are the best of the best! I always love eating here!
