Bolognese, chick parm and the veal mushroom dinner is all soo phenomenal! I love the dark ambiance, the music is not too loud, the waitstaff are so friendly and professional. Love this place.

This neighborhood spot is big and bustling and is ran old school style.A huge street front presence, Carmine's looks fantastic as you approach and offers the best people watching in town.

This neighborhood spot is big and bustling and is ran old school style.A huge street front presence, Carmine's looks fantastic as you approach and offers the best people watching in town. Rush Street is always jumping, no matter the day of the week.Service is always impeccable from the host desk to service to management. The reservation process is easy. When I arrive the hosts always greet me immediately and seat me quickly. My servers have always been on top of their game offering attentive service even during the most busy evenings. Then there is the Managers. They know how to run a big ship and still make each customer feel appreciated.The cuisine is interesting and memorable. Homemade pasta that melts in your mouth, sauces to dream about and decadent desserts that leave you with a smile. Satisfaction is always the end result. read less

This place is happening. Excellent service, excellent food except the baked clams. They were teeny,tiny. For 12.95 they should give you more than 6 or get bigger clams. Also, the clam chowder needed salt. I will go back, though. Love the atmosphere, huge bar, friendly bartenders. One more thing,... read moreThis place is happening.

Fantastic service. We knew from before that the portions are enormous, so we asked to have them split. The staff was accommodating and the food was great!

I admire this venue very much. It has a different spirit. The cuisine is good. the service is powerful and the stuff is friendly. The cost is decent. I warmly recommend.

Calamari, Baked ziti, lamb chops our lunch was great! Love this place when feeling Italian in the city!

Very neat and welcoming restaurant. They serve large portions and for affordable rates. I loved the food very much and the staff members were very friendly and informative. Will definitely recommend this restaurant.

Probably one of the best Italian restaurants in all of Chicago. The food is fantastic, proportions are very large and the service is always good. I've been coming here for over 25 years and I have never had a bad meal. Side note: Try their Pizza. You don't hear much... read moreProbably one of the best Italian restaurants in all of Chicago.

Quality Italian meal with old school waitress who was great. Would highly recommend. Oysters were very fresh and the Italian wedding soup homemade. A bit of a quieter atmosphere but nothing wrong with that for a romantic night out!

This place sure knows how to take care of their clients. Regularly with a friendly demeanor. The food is reasonably priced, regularly yummy and neat.
