Too Salty!! Wow, couldn't taste any flavors over the salt. To begin with the Italian dressing was salty, the sauce and meat balls were very salty also. When so much salt is used you wonder what they are trying to hide?
Great Italian Food! This is our favorite for Italian Food. Great selections and the pizzas are fabulous! I personally love th elasagne and canneloni meals. Fresh, great service and very friendly staff.
Great Time at Carmines on Friday 08/24/07 I happen to be at Carmines with my family and friends because we wanted to have some good Italian Food. Well, we got Good Food and Great entertainment for a fair price. I had the Ravioli with meat sause and it was delicious my boyfriend had the pizza and he loved it lots of toppings and fresh bread. We happen to sit in the bar side and they had a great band playing. I think they were called Power and Soul. It was a great night. I will be back.
A Very Disappointed Regular Customer Initially, this review appeared in Yahoo; however, someone was able to whine to Yahoo to have it removed. No problem...Here it is again! On Sunday, 3/4/7 my family and I thought we'd go to Carmine's in South Pasadena to enjoy some of their Italian food. (The food is usually great by the way.)Now, in all fairness to the employees of Carmines who were on duty that night, there was a fairly large birthday party going on. (if you consider a party of fourteen people or so, a large party) And, ... read more
Great food at great prices I've been going to Carmine's for a couple of years. The decor is basic family-like Italian, the best seating is on the patio in the evening with it's perfect lighting. They have a very minimal corking fee (if I remember correctly) if you choose to bring your own wine. My favorite is their bread. It is toasted so the butter melts perfectly. I always get the Chicken Fettucine, it has a light cream sauce and the portions are so large, I am guaranteed an entire meal left over for the next day. Basic sa... read more
Great Food! The food is excellent.The lasagne is great,the white pizza is to die for! The dipping oil is wonderful! The Italian dressing is great,the salads are fresh and delisious!The mixed berry cake is great! The only dish I"ve had and didn't like was the pasta with shrimp,the shrimp wasn't fresh,tasted fishy.(tasted a bite of my dining partner's dish) Be careful of the drinks! Very potent!
This is a terrible restaurant I think this is the worst Italian restaurant ever. The food is overpriced, not authentic Italian unless you love grease and no flavor. The scampi I had was so dry, and such a poor quality of shrimp, I couldn't eat it. The marinara sauce tastes like it comes from a can. I was with a party of 8 and everyone hated their meal. It was crowded with families with kids, so I guess it is a step above McDonalds if you are looking for a place to eat with your family. With all the good Italian restaurants i... read more
Huge portions Great Italian food with gi-normous portions! Try their Gumbi dish, it's one of our favorites. But really, order any of their pasta dishes and get enough to serve 2 people easily. Service is excellent, the setting is casual. There is a bar area attached, where live music plays.
Make a night of it One of my favorite local spots to hang out durring the week. You can easily make a whole night of it at Carmine's with the restaurant and it's great food (love the BBQ chicken pizza) and then skipping over to the bar area next door. Great folks, great food and great drinks!
