If I could give this rating 10 stars I would. My wife and I loved every single thing about Carbone.
The vibe in the restaurant is incredible. Upbeat exciting music that almost makes you want to dance.
When you are seated, you are immediately greeted and provided several very nice starters. Delicious Breads, Spicy Salami, Pickled Cauliflower (try it) and what I assume is extremely aged Parmesan cheese. These items alone deserve 5 stars.
You have a waiter and a captain who explains the restaurant and menu to you. We decided to order the prosciutto and mozzarella appetizer and man...it was incredible. They literally make the mozzarella to order. It comes out hot and they cut it into pieces infront of you placing it on the prosciutto. SOOOOOOO good.
We followed the appetizer with a single order of the veal parmesan. Holy crap. Top 2 veal parmesan's I've ever had. The veal has a light crispy parmesan crust covering the entire veal and an absolutely delicious marinara sauce to go with it. The waiter cuts the veal into 4 pieces and serves it to you. Amazing.
Oh yeah, the drinks - I am a rum fan. HUGE rum menu. Even better - staff that knows and understands the rum. My waiter talked to me for 5 minutes about the rum telling me the different options and what he thought I would like based on my preferences. When they bring you the rum, they cart over a good sized round table with all of the rum choices on it, hand you the bottle to confirm your choice and then pour your drink. Very unique and excellent.
By the end of the meal we were actually pretty full, and while we wanted to try a dessert, couldn't manage. All of them looked amazing though.
The top off the night by providing you with a complimentary bottle of homemade limoncello and an Italian cookie. You obviously can't take the bottle, but you can sit there as long as you want to sip on the final drinks of the night.
10/5 stars. Can't wait to come back. My wife and I can't stop thinking about Carbone. Open up a store in North TX!! PLEASE!!
