Carmines is a really generic suburban resto-bar in a strip mall. The food is vaguely Italian, but it's like they can't fully commit to being one type of restaurant. They serve salads and pasta and they also have a bar.
The food is forgettable. I don't remember how anything tastes, there was no single dish that really stood out.
I remember it being fairly pricy, though.
Honestly, I have no idea why people eat here. It's overpriced and really not particularly impressive.
Verdict:
Carmines sells edible, forgettable, surprisingly expensive food.
