Food and service were very, very good. Gluten free pasta tasted and felt like regular pasta . Stuffed clams and scampi were mouth watering and Italian sausage was divine! Outstanding!

If you are at the bar you can order happy hour items. Calamari was excellent. I also ordered a meatball parm hoagie which was good AND BIG and came with a side caesar salad .

Clementine Mottola

Family style portions (each one feeds 4). Get stuffed mushrooms ! All food is to die for, absolutely delicious. Any special occasion , I will be back. Survice absolutely splendid! All around wonderful!

Gilbert Wong

The Prime Rib Double Bone, Linguine with White Clam Sauce , Fried Calamari , & Salmon with Mussels & Bacon to share were all AWESOME!!

Ian Worrall

When the wait staff looks at you like your crazy for ordering that means your grossly underestimated the portions. Massive family style portions with quality to match. Excellent all around!

Rachel Alexander

Penne a la vodka is delicious! Great cheese too. Portions are huge though so make sure you have lots of people or be ready to take some food home!

Deborah Novi

You have to go to Carmine's with family !! It's really a great place to eat ! It reminds you of eating at your Grandmoms if your Italian!!

Mariana Johnson

Amazing! HUGE dishes (you order one for two / maybe three people) and enjoy. Prices very reasonable.

The food is to die for and the family style portions in relation to the price is really good. Its a must to eat here!

Don't let the prices scare you. Servings are family style .. big servings and delicious. We had lasagna and barely ate half (2 people).

Micah

So by now you know they over do the portions. I mean a Cesar salad for $27.50? Yeah it's a big salad but you'd have to be a idiot to order $1 worth of lettuce for $27.50. The manicotti was just ok.

Bani Dheri

Everything! And staff is friendly . Large family sized portions of food.

Kess

Chicken alla romana was nothing less than surperb. So much in the serving you can feed 4.

Jennifer O'Neil

Love the food here! Huge portions , so you better come hungry...or with a lot of friends.

Not as good as the original in NYC but definitely worth a visit if you are in Atlantic City.

Josh Berkowitz

It's family style , so be sure to bring friends. 1 dish probably serves 2-3.

Hey Carmine's! I know you're family style but how about a candle on the romantic tables for two?
