    Tabatha is amazing and the cocktails are stellar. We had the hush puppies for the first time tonight and they rocked! Nashville aioli for the win!

    Food was underwhelming. Drinks were good. Atmosphere is great. There was a shard of metal in one of our dishes, the restaurant comped that meal.

    A neighborhood favorite that always delivers. We prefer it to other places that can be really noisy. The high tops are cozy, the service is great, and the food is excellent. Also, they have an extensive collection of tequila, bourbon, and scotch.

    Loved the atmosphere. Very cute. Ordered the short ribs and it wasn’t even warm. Tasty but room temp.

    Carmella’s is truly a gem in the South Side Flats! All of the staff are so quick to help and insanely kind and caring - we feel like family every time we dine with them. Could not ask for better food or drink as well!
