We tried Cara Mia’s new location in Floral Park last night. The food was amazing! I totally forgot to take pictures of the apps because we were so hungry. Definitely worth the wait on a Friday night

The food was amazing, service was excellent and prices were even better for the portions we got. I’m not Italian but I know good food when I eat it. The bread was nice, fresh and soft, calamari was the perfect amount of crispy and the pasta was a perfect texture. The wine was also a fan favorite. I live an hour away and would drive back with no hesitation.

Cara Mia invested finally in atmosphere at it’s great new site. However, service was not great. Waiter never came back until the end of the meal. Whatever happened to asking patrons how is meal, do you need anything? Also, the shrimp Cara Mia dish was supposed to be creamy, Instead it was watery. A $160 meal was below par. I say it is new and just getting acclimated so trying to keep and open mind. Hopefully, they read and learn from reviews.

We’ve been coming to this restaurant since 1984 & continue to do so due to the down home service & food quality. The menu is diverse, the drinks are generous, and the desserts are decidently delicious.

Didn’t wait long to be seated. The food was good but serving was a lot had to take some home. Service was great. I love the toasted Italian bread with butter.

Service was very good. Food is delicious. I asked for regular spaghetti instead of linguine, but did not get it. Pasta is the very cheapest part of any order. I have been there 2x and both times there was not a sufficient amount of pasta that came with the shrimp ala Cara Mia. I am used to Italian restaurants that charge, but give you enough for two meals. If this were to improve here, I would come back. As it stands, my rule is 3 strikes and I am eating elsewhere. I would give it another try. Otherwise, the food is delicious. Hoping for better!

I had the chicken pizzaiola. The sauce was fresh and the chicken tender. The service was good and it was nice having the chef coming to the table seeing how everything went

Lovely restaurant with great food and portions! Some food needed a little extra seasoning but we thoroughly enjoyed our experience. Do be prepared for a wait. Atmosphere was a little loud for my own personal preference, but many do enjoy the busier atmosphere. Would definitely return to try more on the menu.

It was a very nice classy Italian dinner spot. The lights were dim, they have booths, and table seating. They do have outdoor seating for those who are not vaccinated, please provide your cards if you are. The outdoor seating isn’t the best, it’s not a pretty side street. However 5 stars goes to their food! It’s delicious! The service is good but they could get some more uplifted waiters. They seemed tired and unenthusiastic, understandable…

THE BEST ITALIAN FOOD. FULL STOP. The quality of the food and drinks is superb. Best I’ve ever tasted. Items are made fresh on the premises, including the desserts, which is [chef’s kiss.] The drinks at the bar are also perfect. I mean that. They’re the gold standard of the drink. (Try their French Martini!) The staff is awesome, and the prices are reasonable. Great Italian food, but sadly no pizza. The locals LOVE the place… You will too!
