I have been to this restaurant a few times. They are always consistent with good service and quality of food. I live near by and one day wanted some Italian food and googled Italian restaurants near me and red carpet came up. At first was a little skeptical, but after enjoying their delicious dishes, I knew I found one of the best Italian restaurant.

So incredibly delicious! We had the chicken parmesan and Fiocchi Di Pera, and chicken Alfredo (they made it special for us, since it was not on the menu.) Owner was so friendly and helpful. Desserts were out of this world. We will be back the next time we're in Miami.

Red Carpet is a hidden gem. I had the chicken parmigiana and tasted my wife's Fiocchi De Pera. Both were extremely tasty. Relaxed atmosphere and great service. I will be back.

Superb, as always!

Four of us enjoyed Great tasting food. Special requests were accommodated. Service was personalized.

As always, Red Carpet never disappoints. Outstanding food & service.

"I love the relaxed feel of this place – like a comfortable dining room in a friends home. The home made desserts are delicious.

I was our second time eating there, it is always fantastic. Couldn’t have asked for a better way to celebrated my birthday.

The Restaurant outsides appearance outside is deceiving for the atmosphere present inside.The Food is Ok & so is the Service, but not the Best for the Price. It is unfortunate that for the Price of a Wanna Be Coral Gables Restaurant, the Caliber of the Server can Ruin the Dining Experience, whence a Question was asked. Why is the Restaurant named Red Carpet? The Answer from the Red Bearded ?? Owner/Server was, why don’t you come back another time & ask my Brother who will answer that for you, he said rudely.My Guest Face, who I invited to Dinner’s Face dropped from hearing this. I was so stunned & embarrassed, that I just walked away disgruntled & disenchanted.I highly recommend an Attitudinal Change for the Red Bearded ?? Leprechaun ?. If you want to Spend Top $$ for a Mediocre Dinner & be Mistreated like that, just Visit this Uncharted Hole in the Wall Place & be Mistreated by this Cast Member.Just Food for Thought!

So after seeing numerous 5 star reviews on this restaurant I decided to try this for myself. I made a reservation @OpenTable and for sure table was ready when promised. I think our reservation was one of the last for Saturday but not too late.After sitting and ordering drinks they quickly (almost rushed) they asked to take our order which we did. The lady recommended the soup of the day which was a creamy but light vegetable soup. It was on point.Also good was the ceasar salad a little bit overdressed but I actually like it like that.As for main courses, They also recommended the Lasagna which was the special of the day and also pointed out that the squid ink risotto with shrimp was one of their best sellers. We ordered both of those and also had a fettuccine Alfredo with chicken and the crab meat ravioli.Ravioli was good light and flavourful... the Lasagna was just okay something tou can easily make at home and same for the fettuccine. The down fall was with the risotto... bland, very undercooked and soupy. Very disappointing to say the least.I agree with some other reviews that I read about being overrated. I guess I came here with high expectations and Red Carpet couldn't deliver on quality and flavors.Overall... another nice but very normal Italian restaurant. Nothing crazy.
