Absolutely delicious, homemade soul food! My husband & I have been to Carmi a handful of times, now, & I am yet to leave unimpressed or any less than totally stuffed! Not a huge menu selection but perhaps a small menu is what keeps every meal tasting fabulous. Thus far I've had shrimp & grits (spicy & delicious), fried tilapia (HUGE filet) & sides of greens (w smoked ham) & baked mac & cheese (*drool*). My husband swears by the fried chicken. Wait staff is very friendly & prices are reasonable. Only downside is dated decor. Maybe in time the owners will be able to afford some updating.
Welcome to the neighborhood, Carmi! Keep it up!
