Carnevino is located in the Palazzo and the restaurant itself is big and accommodate a lot of people.
Their bread was delicious and comes with lardo spread. It tasted just like breakfast sausage. The bread alone is great and doesn't require the spread in my opinion.
Beef carpaccio: not bad although I wish it had more crostini. I had to use the complimentary bread to finish it off.
Arugula salad: yummm pickled onions and cheese.
Black fettucine: the fettucine was black which is strange when you look at it, but it was delicious. It had a nice kick to it thanks to the jalapenos. There was crab in it, but just a pinch.
Bone-In new york strip: I don't know what they glaze their meat with, but it creates this crust over the meat and its simply delicious
Main lobster tail: standard to any other restaurant
Roasted shitakes with aceto balsamico: I love balsamic vinegar and each and every mushroom is infused with it.
Mascarpone & guanciale mashed potatoes: this was different, but different good. They crack a egg table side and mix it in with the potatoes.
Carnevino is good, but very pricey and the portions are on the small side. I guess Mario Batali feels his name commands a big price tag.
