    My dining experience was very good. I had the rigatoni scampi and crab bisque it was very delicious. My husband had the antipasto and the chicken parmigiana which he also enjoyed. We will continue to patronize this establishment. We are always very pleased.

    Carmine's is an excellent place for that group family friends get-together or an intimate dinner with loved ones. We celebrated our anniversary and they gave us a nice ice cream waffle for dessert - such a surprise. Our waiter was wonderful!

    Easily my favorite restaurant! Our meal was exceptional. From the beginning of the meal we knew we were going to enjoy our night. Service was top notch (as it always is) and the food is expertly prepared. At Cafe Loren the food is consistently delicious. The portions are generous enough to feel satisfied. But not so big that you cannot try something from each course. And there is always room for dessert. We try to have dinner at Cafe Loren whenever our schedules allow. PERFECTION!!
