We went there for lunch today. We started with an Appetizer called the Italian Nachos and they were shockingly really good. I included a pic. I tried the Italian Parmigiana and as you can see in the pic I didn’t get very far. They actually let me exchange my Italian Parmigiana for the Chicken Scaloppini which was a very nice gesture. The Parmigiana just wasn’t good. My wife was eating the Chicken Scaloppini which was decent but we both felt sorta bloated afterward and we didn’t even come close to eating all of it. We wondered if its the quality of the ingredients. We both have had a similar dish at Cheesecake Factory in Murray a few months ago called Chicken Riesling and we both thought it was far better tasting and also no bloated feeling etc after eating the entire dish it was so good. I included a pic off the website of it. I recommend it. $6 more but certainly worth every dollar.

My girlfriend and I wanted to try a new place so we went here. We got seated fast. Got our drinks in alright time. It took a while to get our food. The food was alright. Cheaper than Olive Garden and tasted better too. Our waitress however is the reason for the bad rating. Some of the worst wait staff we’ve experienced. They were constantly hanging out by the cooks while we and other guests were waiting for them. It took her longer to bring our check than it did for our food to cook. We waited a ridiculous amount of time to get out of there. Will not be going back again.

Went there for lunch Saturday afternoon. Their were only two other folks eating. No one greeted us when we showed up. The hostess did get a table ready for us the waved for my party to come to the table. Food prices were expensive for the quality of the food. Noodles were undercooked. Waitress never brought my son his sunday which was supposed to come with his kids meal. When I asked for it to go (after paying the bill). Waited 9min before I gave up and just left. Wife had to ask several times for the waitress to bring her Diet Coke. Never going back

Seriously so sick of this location. We went tonight for my birthday because we had a free entree and we are done with this location. The waitress acted like she was annoyed the whole time and my lemon rosemary chicken had no lemon or rosemary twice! After bringing over the new manager he hardly said two words and said he would take care of it. He then charged me $10 for my side of noodles, when I told him that was too much for a side of noodles he didn’t do anything about that either. So we paid, didn’t tip and got the hell out of there and wont be back. We didn’t used to have problems with this restaurant a while back and the only time we enjoyed coming was when the restaurant was being ran by a shorter Hispanic man. I can’t remember his name but they need him back! Because now they can’t make the food right and most of the staff acts irritated. This happens over and over, if I could leave no stars I would!

We dined here for a birthday party and were very pleased! The service was amazing; our waitress was attentive and very friendly. Food was delicious! We particularly loved the Italian nachos, all the free warm bread, and the chicken marsala. The Alfredo sauce was delicious and three lasagna was incredible! So yummy, very fun, great service! Can’t wait to go back!!!

First off I like to say the waiter we had was great. He always came by to check on us and everything like that. But the problem I had was when we ordered our food. I got the Italian seafood pasta, when i got my food my plate was the only one that was cold enough to touch And i could tell my plate had also sat for a while by the way the top of the noodles looked. Well the shrimp in it was great but the muscles in it not So much.. very cold and they didn’t taste right. But when I asked about it they said everything was fresh, I told them about my muscles and they told me they would take are of it. All they did was give me a free drink. I don’t go out often But when I do I honestly expect better especially from a place like this. I got sick later that night from the muscles which really sucked. Probably won’t go back again. Not for a while…

Was seated the table was sticky, the waiter had to scrub the table so it was clean, the marinara sauce for the mozzarella sticks tasted exactly the same as what they cook the lasagna in. And the noodles in the lasagna we’re not done. After I got home my stomach started to gurgle……. After feeling great all day I think the the oil in the fryer was old cuz the mozzarella sticks left a bad aftertaste for hours. I think this place needs a food inspection, very low standards. I should have got up and walked out before I ate anything. But the salad was good and the waiter Elias did a very good job. I believe he deserves to work for a five star restaurant please Olive Garden rescue him. And for the hostess that seated us. She should probably look for another line of work because she constantly stared out at the dining room as you were eating very awkward and uncomfortable. I think this restaurant could be a five star restaurant if somebody with better management skills was to take over.

I like going there when I haven’t planned ahead and made reservations. It’s rarely super busy and we get seated rather quickly. Service is decent and we get the items we ordered fairly quickly and refills. Sometimes I’ll have to remind the waiter more than once. I like the food…and not having to wait for more than a few minutes to get seated. I’ll admit that the place looks run down. The tables tend to be sticky. Sometimes the seats are uncomfortable.

Do you enjoy waiting? Is being ignored something that you look for in an eating establishment? Then, by all means, Carino’s is for you! My wife and I took our children out on a Friday night, wanting to try somewhere we hadn’t been for a while. Carino’s was close. So, we thought we’d give it a shot. Shortly after we were married, several years ago, my wife and I went to Carino’s on a date night. The food was passable, but the service was a joke. Surely, they’d improved by now? Nope. Although we were sat quickly, that’s where the decent service stopped. The table was greasy and sticky to the point we had to wipe it down ourselves with napkins. Then the waiting began. 25 minutes in, and not a single server even asked if we were being helped. History repeats itself! We decided to leave. Voicing our decision and reason for leaving to the person upfront, we were met with a very unenthusiastic, “Oh.” Needless to say, that is the last time we will ever attempt to eat there again.

I read a lot of the 1 start reviews and almost canceled my reservation but decided to give it a shot. So glad I did! The food was amazing. We loved everything we bought. Our waitress was nice and attentive. Our only minor complaints would be that she spoke very broken English and over charged us (only $1) for our appetizer. Besides those minor things our evening was great.
