Fodor's Review:
Savvy New Yorkers line up early for the affordable family-style meals at both branches of this large, busy eatery. There are no reservations taken for parties of fewer than six people after 7 PM, but those who wait are rewarded with mountains of such popular, toothsome items as fried calamari, linguine with white clam sauce, chicken parmigiana, and veal saltimbocca. The Upper West Side dining room has dark woodwork and black-and-white tiles; outdoor seating is available in the front. The Midtown West location can be a zoo. Although it's impossible not to order too much, everything tastes just as satisfying for leftovers the next day.

Don't go as a couple
Posted by donsspot from Bradenton, Florida on 4/8/08
Carmines family style works well for groups and well.. families, but as a couple on the town, it was restrictive. The portions are huge, and good quality, but the matre d and server person were both rude. The hostess made sure to tell us that we needed to vacate our table before the next reservation! And our server had to be pushed to tell us you can get a side dish with your enormous meat dish (chicken parm)
Overall, the other restaurants we visited (The Palm, Molyvos, etc) in NYC are extraordinary while this one was ordinary
