Carmela's Restaurant

The spaghetti with meat sauce was unbelievable.  I cannot remember a better flavor than that.  I would highly recommend it.

Stopped in a little before 9pm on a Saturday night, thought the place was closed. A little confused as we navigated through the store/deli and found the actual restaurant. Pretty dark inside, only a few other diners. By the end of our service, we were the last two standing. The bartender was the first to greet us, and had us sat immediately. Shortly thereafter we had a very pleasant waitress bringing out water, bread, and taking our orders. Menu prices seemed a bit above market, much the same with the drinks/wine. Put in orders for a bottle of wine, an appetizer, and our entrees without a hitch. Wine came out chilled, and was worth the few extra bucks. Great taste. Our app, the Arancini was mistakenly forgotten, but quickly resolved and brought to our table. Once out, we found it was quite solid dish. Fresh, excellent temperature, seasoning, and the marinara was spot on. Shortly after, out come the entrees...the Portabello Mushroom Ravioli and Lobster Ravioli. Both left us grinning. Plenty of food to quell your appetite. Much like the Arancini, we found proper seasoning, the right temperature, and didn't have much to complain about. The Lobster Ravioli was served with Shrimp, which was a bit of a question, but was solid nonetheless. Either way, all of our dishes went very well. Too stuffed for dessert, maybe next time. The staff obliged our request to look through the grocery before heading out, even though it was closed. Very cool of them. All in all, highly recommended after our first visit. Hopefully we'll be back, and can stop in with the kids for a nice dinner.

Not on the same level as other places like Ciao's or even Sunny Italy.  The Macri family is good at making money, not food.
