Carmine's Italian Restaurant - Washington D.C. Reviews from The Last Year
big delicious portions
Amazing service! We sat at the bar and had kevin. I saw a review saying this was expensive but the portions are so big. My mom & i shared a lunch plate. Food was great, Cesar was AMAZING.
Visiting DC we were looking for place for dinner and we
Visiting DC we were looking for place for dinner and we ended up here . Great choice ! It is a family style Italian place. Our food we order was delicious!!! Our waiter was so nice !! Next time I would take bigger group ! It was a lot of food
Quite possibly the best Italian food I've ever had
Quite possibly the best Italian food I've ever had especially the lasagna. Everything we tried was perfection. The salad was a little over dressed but the garlic bread that was served with it compensated for it. The desserts were amazing we tried the cheesecake and this espresso chocolate brownie or maybe it was fudge either way it was delicious The service was great and our server was great as well
Service by Laura our server was amazing and pleasant.
Chicken parm was deffinetly overcooked. The manicotti was great good wine and raviolis marinara were descent. Focasia herb bread was great. Water was cold and served with ice.
Man, this was the best place I've ever been in DC.
I'm recruiting a group to go back. Everything was amazing
We've been to Carmine's several times over the years.
Lunch, dinner, work group lunches and dinner. We recently ordered dinner from Carmine's through DoorDash for my birthday. Stuffed mushrooms, chicken parm, veal scallopine, chocolate cannoli. Can describe all of it with one word...DELICIOUS! The attention to detail from Carmines with securely wrapping and layering all of the food was amazing. We have leftovers for 2 more dinners. If you haven't been...GO! Don't think I've ever read a review in the WaPo by Tom Seitsema on Carmine's, he should check it out.
I would recommend to come eat here.
The food was flavorful but the only thing that needed some improvement was the service. I do recommend the spaghetti and meatballs and the garlic oil and chicken was delicious. Bring a big appetite and your family will be full by the time you are done. Family sized portions of food. The name is Curtis and he was interesting to say the least over all phenomenal.
Highly recommended Italian cuisine
Highly recommended while visiting Maryland. The food was delicious! It is family style so the orders are large enough to share with others. The cost for the meals were reasonable and we were able to get a taste of everything without wasting food.
Lovely service.
They do serve cold bread, but other than that the atmosphere & great food & lots of it.
Great Group Lunch Spot
I booked a group lunch for 60 people this week and everything went great. When I booked I was told that if anyone left hungry then something was wrong and that could not be more true. It is SO MUCH food! My group was very happy. They raved about the Chicken Parm, so definitely get that as part of your meal.
We held a group dinner at Carmine's for the past two years
We held a group dinner at Carmine's for the past two years and both times we received impeccable service and generous portions of food served family style. The group events contact perso was very quick to respond and very professional each time we had questions. AND! The price was VERY reasonable. We hope to return to Carmine's each time we host a dinner in DC.
Worst service in my life, the host explained about how it
Worst service in my life, the host explained about how it was a family style restaurant and sat us down at a high top table. We tried to get a table but they could not explain why we couldn't. There were open tables for 2 all over so when we tried to seat they told us they were all reserved. We waited to get service for over 30 minutes until we finally left. The tables for 2 were still open by the way. I Wouldn't come here ever again even if the food was free.
Candidly, I usually avoid chains, but I came for dinner
Candidly, I usually avoid chains, but I came for dinner with a group visiting D.C. for a social media summit. The organizers picked Carmine's since it's centrally located in Chinatown and host private groups in private rooms. Since there were around 40 of us, we sat at two long tables and servers brought out food family style. Surprisingly, I enjoyed all the food, especially the stuffed mushrooms, chicken Marsala, shrimp in red sauce, and chocolate torte. It was plenty of food and full of flavor. Do locals eat here? I don't know of any, but if you need a decent Italian spot with lots of space for groups, go here!
Decent Italian
Decent food, expensive but not outrageously so, good service, nice atmosphere, not too busy or noisy on a Wednesday night. Dinner for three (mountainous fried calamari appetizer, mixed seafood over linguine and veal marsala--plenty of leftovers) plus drinks was $250 before tip.
Our Favorite Italian Restaurant !
My husband and I dined at Carmines for an early Valentine’s Day treat. The meal was absolutely delicious. Our server Makayla was fast, kind and efficient. Carmine’s is spacious and well decorated. The restaurant is always spotless. We drive a total of three hours just to dine there. The meals are served family style. We love the tender large appetizing meatballs with angel hair pasta and marinara sauce. They just melt in your mouth. The meals are so fantastic we always order extra take out meals. The managers are pleasant and always acknowledge their customers. Our all time favorite Italian restaurant.
EXPENSIVE TOURIST TRAP
Don’t normally write 1-2 star reviews because I was born into a family of small Business owners and I know the reality and struggles of owning such a business, however I cannot let this Corporate chain continue to get away with robbing their customers. It’s funny because I have a pal who works on Wall Street in New York and he has said the same things about this place. It is horrible and an expensive tourist trap in every sense. Also the waiters and staff are dismissive and rude, none of them seem trained in hospitality or restaurant industry. One thing is having bad food. Another is having horrible service and horrible attitude. Had to beg the waiters for water and then got attitude from the waiter when he complained about a salad bowl with iceberg lettuce.. said that was the standard. Unbelievable, then they also serve wine in glasses designed for water. Bread was hard and stale, like it had been out before. Can’t make it up. STAY AWAY!!! Major waste of money.
Sub par. Food was not good.
My two kids and I came here for dinner after the Washington Capitals game. The waiter was friendly, courtesy amd professional. The food was sub par. The Caeser salad was extremely salty to the point you couldn’t eat it. Why the chef added so much salt on top of the dressing is beyind me but we ate it. I complained to the waiter about this. Our chicken parm plate was huge but unimpressive. Low quality cheese on top and the chicken tasted like it was reheated. Either it didnt taste right or thats how chicken parm is in DC. We are from NY and know what a good chicken parm tatstes like. The rigatoni marinara awful. Ive been to many Carmines where the food haa been exceptional but here it didn’t match up. It was bad but we ate it because qe were hungry. The GM’s and managers sit around doing nothing other than observe. Suggestion: tell your chefa to better prepare their food for the prices they are charging. Maybe it was a bad evening who knows ? Management /ownership should pay a visit to the kitchen and improve. Do not recommend DC Carmine.
Horrible Experience
The service was mediocre. We had a reservation and waited to be seated. The food was marginal. We ordered caprese salad and were told it consisted of lettuce, tomato, basil, tomato and mozarella. It was drenched in oil and contained a chopped up red onion to which I'm allergic. The shrimp dish was good not great. Waiter was nice but disappeared for quite a while so we couldn't get our check. I'd never go back and would tell others not to waste their time. No prices listed either!
Nice place to eat with my wife!
Me & my wife discovered this restaurant. Long story short, the food was great & the service was wonderful. Highly recommended in my opinion!
Everything was perfect!
I took a group of 25 seniors to Carmines as a special holiday treat! We were treated very special. Our server was on top of his game. The food came out in perfect timing and it was superb! We had to order from a special menu because of our size but they gave us plenty of choices. It was a bit pricey but we got more food than any of us could eat so they gave us plenty of take away containers to take it all back home with us. Everyone said they had a great time and the food was wonderful.

Great Service - amazing dinner!!
Read about the site in NYT and bought a reservation at Mother Wolf in LA 2 days later. Worked great and the food was amazing!!!
Worked perfectly!
Got the reservation (that I couldn't get anywhere else) and was able to entertain a group of friends at the infamous Bern's Steakhouse.
Got into Nobu Malibu
Wonderful! My parents are visiting and we have wanted to go to Nobu Malibu for years. I tried getting a reservation myself but it was next to impossible. So glad I was able to buy a reservation on appointment trader for a decent price!
Very easy
Was very hesitant going into this experience but am glad to say that it worked out very well ! will definitely use appointment trader in the future
Fabulous Lunch
I was veeeeeerry skeptical that this would work, particularly at a restaurant as hard to get into as Nobu Malibu, and it was perfect! We had lunch outside on the patio and it was fabulous!
Great reviewer team
Just wanted to take a second to shout out the reviewer team. Even though they probably review hundreds of listings and bids a day, they still take the time to leave great comments and respond relatively quickly. Thanks!
Incredible
I got a reservation to Don Angie, which I've been trying to book for weeks! I am very happy with this service.
Best platform out there!
Super simple, easy, and fast to secure reservations for hard-to-get restaurants and locations!
This app is life changing
This app has opened my world up to so many wonderful new experiences I would never have the chance to have without access to this awesome app! 10/10!
Worked perfectly
Was a little nervous at first but was pleased to see that the booking went through flawlessly.
Highly recommended.
Success on Short Notice
Was able to snag an indoor table at Don Angie through an absolutely seamless worry-free process.
Worked perfectly, thank you!
This is a crazy holiday season in NYC and I was very pleasantly surprised to see that AppointmentTrader works! Will be using again!
Worked flawlessly!
Worked so well! I was a bit nervous, but everything went very smoothly. purchased the reservation, and got into the restaurant seamlessly.
Love this app!
So glad I came across this app :)
Quick table in Miami
I didn’t have my hopes high as it was a party of 4. In 24 hours I had a carbone reservation available! I was very happy as my family really wanted to come here
Prime time, great meal
So easy and had a prime time which I can never seem to get on normal res apps. So worth it
Got impossible NYC res
instead of waiting weeks I got my 4 charles reservation instantly
Worked perfectly to get into Carbone. So delighted
perfect
Worked well, got me into a restaurant with no availability
I was skeptical, and I still don't really know how they managed to find this hard-to-find reservation, but it was a win-win from my point of view, and I'll use this service again.
Last minute reservation for Delilah Las Vegas
Got a last minute reservation, dinner for 2 at Delilah Las Vegas: super impressed! The process was simple, transaction seamless. We had an amazing time! Couldn’t be happier! 😍
It works!
Ok at this point I've attended a reservation purchased on AT by a friend and sold a reservation personally. Both worked pretty smoothly, nothing sketchy about it. A few areas for improvement including a way to more directly communicate between buyers and sellers, but the app always seems to be in development. AT customer support is really(!) responsive and helpful too if you have questions!
Money transfer
As a seller, I like the fact i have the ability now to transfer money out of my AT account and into a bank account. Makes getting the money much easier then the process before.
Love this app
Got to go to places otherwise unreachable
Easy Access
Very easy to get into one of the hardest restaurants to reserve in New York.
Whose name will my reservation be under when I arrive at the venue?
It can be under your name or a name you choose! Some reservation offers already include the AppointmentTrader Transfer Service which will transfer the reservation in to your name. If its not included you can add it on after buying the reservation for a small fee. One thing on that though: As many reservations become available at last minute, taking a reservation in someone else name is quick and great for privacy. Most reservations on AT are listed with a virtual phone number, so all you need to do is present the phone number at the hostess stand and you are good to go!
Appointment
I was waiting on the transfer for name but it hasn’t happened yet and my reservation is tonight , will it be an issue that is hasn’t changed into my name yet
Buyers interested in Bern's Steakhouse: PLEASE READ
Same goes for 4 Charles and I Sodi
Prepaid Reservation Fee
Agreed. Ultimately not addressing this month after month is clearly resulting in a drop in certain venue’s rankings & sales.
Congrats on 3 mil
🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🍾🧨🧨🧨 now on to 30 mill!
Need to cancel a bid, not getting a response… how do I do it?
Click on "Take off the Market Option" in your portfolio
Working on your bid?
Your bid has been “matched” with a reservation. From the time a reservation has been located, the seller of the reservation must connect with moderator to give transfer information for reservation. If the seller;however, does NOT respond to reservation transfer, then your bid is reprocessed and returns to the first step, which is connecting your request to a reservation.
Process after bid is accepted.
Hey @EvocativeFold67, welcome to appointmenttrader! Once the reservation is in your portfolio, you definitely own the timeslot, the review team would not have approved the trade if the reservation wasn't confirmed - so you are going :-) Judging from your post you bid today and are going tomorrow - don't worry as long as you initiated the name transfer, you are good - the transfer service has to work with the opening hours of the reservation team of the respective venue. You will likely see the transfer confirmation a couple hours before your reservation time.
Where do the Reservations on AppointmentTrader come from?
Mostly from people who don't need their reservations or appointments any longer. AT has no relationship with places listed and acts as a platform connecting buyers and sellers making sure that listed reservations are real and that privacy is not compromised when transacting.
What happens if my bid expires unanswered?
Hey @FluffyStar64, thanks for the question! When you place your bid the amount gets transferred in a deposit account, the second you either cancel your bid or a few minutes after the bid expires the funds are moved back into your main account from where you can refund it to your payment method or use for other transactions.
