Carmine's Restaurant - Los Angeles

“Absolutely wonderful dining experience and great bartender and wait staff. Superb pasta dishes, wonderful roast chicken, delicious veal picatta, addictive chopped salad. Make sure you order the black and white pizza. Choose small or large. You won't be sorry!”

“Carmine’s was absolutely delicious! I ordered the specials of the night—a delicious Heirloom Burrata to start and the Homemade Pappardelle Pasta. The timing of arrival was great not just overall but also between the dishes, and the food was amazing. Thank you to our server(s), Nick and Nancy, as well as Kim for your hospitality!”

“Started off with the Caesar salad, then ravioli with bolognese sauce and chicken piccata. Finished with tiramisu. Everything was tasty. Service was attentive and atmosphere was like going back in time in a good way.”

“Huge thanks to Kim & Carmine for the exceptional white glove service from first booking the reservation all the way to the absolutely unforgettable meal! This was hands down some of the best Italian food I’ve ever had—no small statement considering I enjoy top-tier Italian every week at work back in Sarasota FL!! We started with a fresh and creamy burrata heirloom salad, perfectly paired with a refreshing Aperol Spritz. For the main course, we enjoyed both the chicken Marsala and the Sinatra-style chicken Parmigiana—elevated with rich bolognese, sautéed mushrooms, and peppers. Every bite was perfection. If you’re in Los Angeles, do yourself a favor and book a table at Carmine’s. An absolute must-visit!”

“Ordered takeout from Carmine’s on Santa Monica Blvd. I got the chicken parm, toasted ravioli, and tiramisu. The sauce on the chicken parm was solid, had that classic Italian-American flavor I had the spicy version, but the chicken itself was dry and overcooked. The toasted ravioli weren’t greasy, which was good, but they didn’t have much flavor. Tasted like something straight from a frozen bag. Definitely wouldn’t order them again. The tiramisu was excellent. Creamy, rich, and probably the only part of the meal I’d go out of my way to get again. Not a bad place if you’re nearby and want something familiar, but it didn’t blow me away. Just okay.”
