That Guy
My first visit tonight and we had a lovely time. The food was very good. Our server was very attentive and attended to our every need. The place was cleaning well kept with a nice design.
We ended up spending close to two hours and really enjoyed meeting and talking to the owner who, you can tell, really loves what he does and was very knowledgeable about the food of Italy and variations from region to region. I could talk to him all day, but would love to spend the day in the kitchen with him too, as I love Italian food, love to cook and love the history and regional differences.
We plan to go back for a ‘Tour of Italy’.

We had the most incredible experience here, and I can’t recommend this restaurant enough! Due to a scheduling mix-up, they technically didn’t have to open for us, but the owner looked at us and said, “We are people of our word, and this wasn’t your fault.” That alone tells you the integrity and kindness of this place. We were so thankful, and from the moment we walked in, Ashley took care of us like family.
The atmosphere was warm and inviting, the kind of place you instantly feel at home in. And the food…oh, the food. Truly unforgettable. My husband and I both agreed it was the best steak we have ever had in our lives. Perfectly cooked, seasoned to perfection, and so tender it melted in your mouth. The stuffed mushroom appetizer set the tone with its rich, savory flavor, and even our picky eater gave the Alfredo a 10/10!
And just when we thought it couldn’t get any better, dessert arrived. The cheesecake was decadent, the cannoli was crisp and filled with the perfect creamy sweetness, and the salted caramel gelato was bursting with flavor. Each bite was perfection.
This is not just another restaurant, it’s a place where people keep their word, treat you with kindness, and serve food that you’ll be talking about long after your visit. We are already looking forward to coming back.

Carmela’s is hands down one of my favorite local spots. The food is legit Italian. It’s always fresh and full of flavor. The drinks are made to perfection. Brunch and dinner are both great, and the staff are super friendly. I love that it’s not a chain; it feels personal, and even the owner walks around checking in on tables. You can tell they actually care. Highly recommend!

We were seated in the loft area, very cozy atmosphere, the place was all dressed up for Christmas. Our server Olivia did a great job . Me and my wife had the mozerella sticks to start off and they were great, they are toasted not fried, they use breadcrumbs for the batter, lighter than most mozerella sticks but we could easily put away two orders they were that good. We both spaghetti and meatballs and she couldn’t do the meatballs because she found them to be to spicy but I enjoy a good spice and once you get that first bite in you don’t even notice it, but if you think pepper is spicy like my wife then be warned. It’s not cheap at all but it was a very nice night out. Would highly recommend for a date night

This place has the best breakfast. I got the eggs , benedict , and oh my goodness , it was so good. Everything is made homemade. My Brothers went for dinner and said It was the best prime rib.He’s ever had. It is expensive , but it is so worth the money.

The best experience i have ever had in a dining! You feel welcome and warm the moment you walk in. There isn’t enough room for me to express how delicious the food, the beautiful interior, and the determination of the staff to make sure your time there will be a wonderful memory and will bring a smile and a longing to return! The food critics should be flocking to this destination dining experience. Worthy of a Michilen star!!

Great place. I can not believe I never stopped in before now. Crab stuffed mushrooms are a must. The vile parmesan was very good. Our waitress was very busy and still did a great job. I will be back to try out many more items.. I am sorry about the pictures, but I could not wait to dive in..
