This was my second time at Carmella's and each time I expect it to be more better than it is. The first time I went, the crab and avocado dip had so much mayo that any other flavor was masked by it.
This time around, I had the burrata app which was basically pesto and cheese on toast. The other item I had was the mushroom ravioli under the Shared Plates menu. When I ordered this, I asked the waiter how much came with the plate and he said "enough for one person as a dinner, or for two people to share". What came was one(!) ravioli on a plate. How is this enough for one person as a dinner or two to share? I would love to know. The waiter proceeded to ask the kitchen about the plate, and they stated that "they used to include two small raviolis but that the one bigger one looked better for presentation." I could care less about presentation and more getting enough food to feel full- and the kicker is that the ONE ravioli cost $13!!! One ravioli for $13?! I thought they would at least compensate by removing it from the check or bringing out another ravioli, neither of which happened.
I will definitely not be going back. This place has been very disappointing.
