Carmine's in NYC is an absolute must for a birthday dinner! The atmosphere is buzzing and so much fun, perfect for celebrating. And the food? Huge portions of classic Italian comfort food that everyone will love. You definitely won't leave hungry, and it makes for a really memorable birthday experience.

George and Felix were amazing from the start. Best recommendations from the Caesar salad, house bread (the red bread), to the country style pasta-we added the chicken, and chicken parm…..oh and hats off to our home state Oklahoma we had a bottle of Fat Ninte(boys from Oklahoma) ….the best! This was split between 4 and we still left lots of food and wanted dessert but we were stuffed! Thank you George and Felix for making us feel like it was a family dinner at the bar. We had reservations but lived then so we gave up the table;)

Carmine’s did not disappoint! The food was amazing and such huge portions for the price. You will definitely want to go hungry and be prepared to share or have a ton of doggie bags. The food was delicious and have the authentic homemade Italian food. I would definitely recommend and will be back when in the area.

Great food. Huge portions. Best if you are in a large group since each entree feed 3 people. We loved the calamari and chicken parmigiana. Very generous bread baskets. The titanic ice cream dessert was delicious. It’s a little loud so you have to speak loudly for conversation.

Carmine’s Italian Restaurant was absolutely amazing! From start to finish, the experience was worth every minute. Our waitress, Kiara, was phenomenal. She was so kind, attentive, and genuinely made us feel taken care of the entire time. The food came out perfectly cooked and full of flavor, with very generous family-style portions. Seriously…huge servings. They even packed our to-go boxes neatly and thoughtfully which was such a nice touch. We didn’t have a reservation and waited about 45 minutes, but it was beyond worth it. The atmosphere, service and food all delivered. We’d gladly wait again. Highly recommend if you’re in NYC and want a memorable, comforting Italian meal.

This place is quite the experience. It’s loud, full of people and huge but still works and has its charm. The waiters are excellent and super kind and helpful. What i like the most is that it’s not only for tourists, there are a lot of locals. Don’t skip this place. Also, you won’t leave hungry.

Review – Carmine’s (Times Square, NYC) Carmine’s is a classic Italian restaurant right in the heart of Times Square, and it’s absolutely a must-go if you’re in the area. The place has that old-school Italian charm —bustling, lively, and full of energy— perfect for groups or family-style dining. The portions are enormous. Seriously, one dish can easily serve three to five people. We were two and ordered a lasagna, which could have fed four hungry diners without a problem. The flavors were rich and comforting, exactly what you’d expect from a great Italian spot. The service is outstanding —friendly, efficient, and perfectly coordinated, even though the restaurant is huge and always busy. I’d recommend making a reservation, but even if you don’t, the staff handles everything very smoothly. Prices are extremely reasonable, especially considering the portion sizes and location. We were so full we couldn’t even think about dessert —a rare thing! 📍 Conclusion: Carmine’s is an NYC institution that delivers big flavor, big portions, and great service. Ideal for sharing and enjoying a true Italian-American dining experience. ⭐ Overall rating: 9.5/10 🍝 Best: massive portions and excellent service. 🍰 Worst: impossible to save room for dessert. 💸 Price: amazing value for Times Square.

Want the feel of family style Italian? This is the place to go. We started with drinks from the bar. Of course we had a Manhattan. You have to when you're in Manhattan. We had the baked clams as an appetizer. So good. We also got the Carmine Salad. The dressing was so good and not over done. This restaurant serves family style so come hungry or bring a group with a wallet. Since it was just the two of us and we didn't need leftovers, we order the shrimp parmesan with some angel hair pasta. It did not disappoint. It was a good compromise for us since I wanted seafood and he wanted the chicken parmesan. Plan ahead to get in. A reservation is a must. Put it in the list when you visit NY.

In Times Square I ate on the restaurant a some years ago and we had a great experience. The review below represents what we typically order everytime we go to Carmines. I have been to Carmine's in NYC, Washington, DC and Las Vegas and each and every time it is on point!!! I am not sure why i have never left a review but I will be fixing that today. I took photos and a copy of the receipt from Las Vegas so yall can see everything we ordered to go.. the only difference is the bread doesn't transport well with cheese i will remove the cheese next time. But other than that food was really good and so consistent. Yes its pricey and its also family style so its not for a sinlge person unless you are going to graze on it for a few days. I will tell you that marinara get extra...i forgot so you cna dip your bread it... so worth it. 10/10 definitely recommend!!
