" Absolutely love this place! The food is authentic Italian that transports you back to Italy itself. My partner and I each ordered different pizzas and shared them - the flavors were incredible, full of depth and freshness. The only downside was how packed it was on a Friday night, which made it quite noisy. But the delicious food more than made up for it! Highly recommend bringing friends and family. Just be prepared to wait for a table! " (*Curated Review*)

" I had hoped for a bit more from my visit to Carmela's. The food, while decent, didn't quite live up to the hype. The pasta was slightly overcooked and lacked the robust flavors I was anticipating. The wait for my order also felt longer than necessary. I would probably give them another shot, as they seem to have a solid reputation. " (*Curated Review*)

" I can’t wait to go back to Carmela’s! The atmosphere feels homey, and the food choices perfectly cater to Italian food lovers. We were a large party, and the staff handled everything well despite the busy night. I sampled different dishes including the chicken parmesan and tiramisu for dessert – both were excellent! A great spot to relax and enjoy delightful Italian cuisine. " (*Curated Review*)

" Carmela's truly exceeded my expectations! I visited with my family and we were treated like royalty. The service was attentive without being intrusive, and the food was simply outstanding. We ordered the lasagna, which was rich and layered beautifully, and the penne a la vodka that was bursting with flavor. Also, don't skip the garlic bread - it was heavenly! A bonus is their cozy setup, making you feel right at home. I will definitely return soon. Highly recommend designating time for dessert, especially the tiramisu! Overall, a fantastic experience. " (*Curated Review*)

" I went to Carmela's recently and was very pleased! The tiramisu was as good as said in previous reviews. The pizza also had a perfect amount of cheese and toppings, even though I prefer to have more sauce. The staff were very polite and attentive, which I appreciated. The overall ambiance was cozy and comfortable, perfect for a family dinner. I recommend trying the eggplant parmesan if you are a fan of that dish! " (*Curated Review*)

" Delicious food and welcoming staff. I came here for the first time with family and we really enjoyed the lasagna. It was rich and flavorful, and there was plenty to share! The ambiance is family-friendly and very cozy. The only downside was the wait time, which seemed quite long during dinner hours. Still, I would recommend Carmela's for a more than satisfactory dinner experience! " (*Curated Review*)

" I was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food. My friend recommended the chicken alfredo, and it was divine! Creamy and flavorful, with perfect pasta. However, the restaurant was quite noisy during peak hours, which took away from the overall experience. The friendly service helped balance it out, though. I’ll return, but I'll try to pick a quieter time. " (*Curated Review*)
