Absolutely amazing, we went here 7/29/22!! 5 STARS IN EVERYTHING - customer service, food, drinks. Our server was kind and very helpful.All the food was DELICIOUS, seasoned, great portions, and fresh. The food comes out pretty fast too.MUST HAVES cause they are so DELICIOUS - The crazy alfredo, spicy shrimp, garlic shrimp and gnocchiNeed to knows - Make reservations before or you will wait 30 plus minutes. The place is very tight and small.
Delicious food from beginning to end. The eggplant appetizer was amazing. For my main course I had the Mushroom Rigatoni which was delicious. I would recommend both. Husband had the Sunday Macaroni which he loved as well.
The excitement was real when we scored a reservation to this acclaimed restaurant.For appetizers, we went with the ‘Garlic Shrimp In a Pan’. The shrimp came with a gorgeous buttery garlic sauce with a hint of lemon.For mains, we went with the crowd- favorite recommendation - ‘Crazy Alfredo’. It did not disappoint, quite true to its name, the unexpected spice added the craziness to the otherwise mellow Alfredo sauce. It comes with chicken, sausage and sun-dried tomatoes.Second main was the ‘Penne Gorgonzola’. Totally worth ordering, it’s the perfect pasta combination - tomato sauce with the punch of Gorgonzola cheese and spinach.PS. Portion sizes are fairly large so order accordingly!Safe to say, we left with satiated bellies and hearts and will be coming back soon!
Best meal I had when visiting Boston. 12 out of 10! Fresh homemade pastas served up in a skillet, giving you that real family meal vibe. Every single person on the staff was so friendly and accommodating. EAT HERE ASAP.
This is the best Italian food. We had carbonara and short ribs with risotto. Service was outstanding. Had a wait but well worth it. They call you when your table is ready. Sat across the street at Cafe Vittoria great coffee!
Hands down the best Alfredo I have ever had. Creamy with a little bit of heat. My husband ordered the chicken parm and the chicken was amazing as well!! Wine was great and bread was warm and garlicky! We will definitely return here if we are in Boston again
It was probably one of the best Italian restaurants I’ve ever been to in the United States! Their calamari and Crazy Alfredo were phenomenal. It is a very busy restaurant, so be sure to make a reservation beforehand! Highly recommend!
Got a wonderful meal of fresh made pasta on their sidewalk patio. The Sunday Macaroni entree is A LOT OF FOOD and a lot of meat. If you are getting this for one person you better be very hungry. But, oh that fresh pasta was so good. The staff was very attentive and we got our table relatively quickly for a busy night.
It took me four visits before I finally was able to get a seat at Carmelina's. The server took pity on me and made available a table. I had the salad and a Sunday Macaroni, which lives up to the hype. Lots of meatball, sausages, and pasta. Excellent service and ambiance.
My family have a lovely dinner here on Father’s day. Our waitress was amazing, very knowledgeable and offered suggestions. The food was delicious. I had the Mushroom rigatoni. Would highly recommend
