A very busy Christmas Eve early dinner for 3. Food was delicious, meatballs are huge. Plates are made to share. Booking is a must. We were at the back mezzanine so got a great view of the restaurant without the noise. Groups would love this place.

I will say that the ambiance was incredible. However, the food the temperature of the food was absolutely horrendous. Meatballs were cold. The waiter wasn’t very articulate about the menu whatsoever. I tried to ask him a couple questions. There wasn’t really much a rapport that he seemed to want to build with myself. Once we got the food it was just somewhat cold ,meatballs were cold really really disappointed,sauce wasn’t warm either .One hostess was exceptionally nice. Sorry would love to give better feedback.

Food is always solid. Service was great. Definitely a bit of a “tourist trap” but still a great, fun place to go in Times Square.

Carmine’s in Times Square is amazing! The food was delicious, and the portions were absolutely massive—definitely made for sharing. We especially loved the calamari; it was perfectly cooked and so flavorful. We kept saying we should’ve brought more friends or family so we could try more dishes. If you’re planning a visit, bring a group and come hungry. You won’t be disappointed!

I don’t recall his name but our server was outstanding! Pleasant, fun, and helpful. The family talked about what a great vibe he brought to dinner! We go as a family every time we go to NYC (our third trip) and food is always delicious, with PLENTY to go around. Also appreciated the water pitcher on the table. As a large family (table of 9), it’s so much easier to keep the water glasses full ourselves. Thanks again!!
