In Short
With a worn black floor, pictures of Marilyn Monroe and photos of 1950s sports teams on the walls, Carmine's exudes history. Old-timers go for the food, newer devotees come to talk and watch the crowds roll by through the big plate-glass windows. Located in a historic Ybor brick building, it still has its original tin ceiling. Salads, pasta and hamburgers are available, but the best dishes have that Latin flavor so beloved in Tampa.
