Carbone is very overrated. Was lucky to get a 9 PM seating. Service was terrible as they did not seem interested in selling cocktails. They pushed some overprice wine. After being seated they finally brought our coccktails just as the food hit the table. Veal Parm was ok. When they figured out that we were not ordering expensive wine they rushed us out. 4 short poured cocktails, 2 over priced appetizers and 2 Veal Parm came to $400 with tax and tip. Not a thank you Not a goodnight. Never again

I just discovered your channel, love it!!! Great reviews and down to earth! I was born and raised in Europe and am of multiethnic background. My mother was Croatian-German-Hungarian and her cooking reflected her ethnic background, mostly Austrian-Hungarian Dishes. We lived in the Italian part of Switzerland, thus her cooking was influenced by that style as well. She was a home-cook and baker, but very good at it and a real food fanatic. We were what you Americans call "foodies", but we were lacking money and could rarely afford choicer cuts of meat and fish, just for Sundays and the Holidays she would try to procure a chicken or some roast. We ate mostly starches and veggies and locally grown fruit. I didn't know what kivis or mangos were, until I first encountered them later in life, after I had come to Chicago. Many of the foods, I grew up eating, were not available in the USA or difficult to come by and only could be found in Metropolitan areas and ethnic neighborhoods. I lived in a small town about 2 hours away from Chicago-land were the local markets only carried American foods. Just a couple times a year I'd drive to Chicago to ethnic markets, Polish, Hungarian, German, Italian etc. to get European type groceries. That was back in the seventies, now even in smaller towns imported international foods have become more widely available. At home, I try to prepare the dishes that I grew up with, and that my mother taught me to cook, from the ingredients available here. I still bake bread, once or twice a week and always have some nice home made pastries in the fridge or freezer, ready in case someone stops by for a visit. I cannot afford this type of high class specialty restaurants that you are reviewing with my very limited financial resources, but, thanks to youtube and people like you, I am able to visit these places and get an idea how they are. And, most of the time, I get the impression that I am not missing anything, and that my home cooked food probably is way better than what they have to offer.

I've only been to the one in Las Vegas, but I enjoyed it. Definitely not the best Italian I've had but not nearly as bad as many here make it out to be (the menu is pretty much the same as NYC). I do find it a little frustrating when people respond to a meal or dish with "well I've had better X at Y, therefore this food isn't very good". I dont go into every meal expecting it to be the best I've ever had. I'd rather judge a place on its own merits rather than whether other places are better, or assuming a restaurant is amazing because of hype. Diaclaimer: I don't live in NYC and this don't have access to world-class Italian on every block. :) Love the vids, though; just subscribed yesterday.

The (mushroom) pasta is extremely unlikely to be from a low quality box. A trick I like to use is to use dry porcini (or similar) to make a mushroom broth, along with a bit of beef bone broth for silkiness, and cook the pasta in the broth. I roast baby bellas cut into fairly large bite sized pieces (if they are small enough I don't cut them, but leave them as is), and toss them in olive oil, sea salt and fresh pepper (roasting at 350 for 15-20 minutes, and add them (and any roasting pan juices) to the pan at the end, so I can control the mushrooms' texture and shrinkage level. The food here definitely appears overpriced, and not fantastic -- presumably people like to spend conspicuously, say they went etc. -- it ain't about the food, clearly. There are likely many un/less heralded places that have better food, bigger portions, and a better value. Carmine's is pretty killer, provided you have appropriate expectations, and go at a quieter time.

I'm sorry but even before you finished/ rated it ....these places are getting out of their minds with prices on pasta dishes. Same with the price for two meatballs. Fyi sugar is adding to balance out the acidity and is often added to freshly made sauce,not just canned sauce.

UA, I enjoy learning about the restaurants that you feature on your channel. It would be great if you could learn some table manners however. It's difficult to take someone's opinion on fine dining food when they eat like they're in a McDonald's.

its not that expensive. i thought when i heard it was overpriced it was like a dish for 150usd +. but 25-100usd for a dish and 25 usd for 2 drinks at a fancy resturant is very respectable. in norway if you go to some mediocre elegant resturant its more expensive than this

$95 for veal masala with store bought pasta is a literal spit in the face
