Guest impressions

What people say about Carmine's Chicago

Guests reviewed Carmine’s as being lively, generous, and quintessentially Gold Coast, with huge portions of Italian American food that leave diners with a left-over or a shared dish after just one entree. Chicken Parmesan, pasta, seafood, steaks, eggplant dishes, calamari, and traditional appetizers get many compliments, and the refurbished interior and outdoor terrace make the dining spot look more modern without losing its Rush Street character. Service is usually lively and attentive, though dinner rush periods can be loud, and large portion prices make much more sense if guests share at the table. Individuals looking for silence and minimalism will not find it, but those who seek an eventful Italian dinner will like it.
