Carmine’s | Italian restaurant
Carmine’s Italian Restaurant is a beloved New York City institution renowned for its Southern Italian cuisine served in generous, family-style portions. Established on August 14, 1990, by restaurateur Artie Cutler, the flagship location opened at 2450 Broadway on the Upper West Side of Manhattan. Cutler’s vision was to create an atmosphere reminiscent of an Italian American wedding feast, where guests could enjoy “wow-factor” sized platters of homemade antipasto, pasta, seafood, meat entrées, and decadent desserts, all designed for sharing among friends and family. The restaurant’s classic décor evokes the charm of America’s “Golden Age,” featuring elements that contribute to its timeless New York ambiance. Carmine’s commitment to exceptional value, hearty portions, and a warm, spirited environment has made it a favorite destination for both locals and visitors seeking a convivial dining experience that feels like a Sunday afternoon at Grandma’s.
