You never know who you'll bump into at Carmine's. This hot spot is a hangout for everyone from celebrities to tourists and locals alike. Heaping portions of mouthwatering Italian cuisine, excellent wines, live music and an upbeat atmosphere keep customers happy and the restaurant buzzing sun up to sun down. Inside, seating on two levels provides conversation-friendly dining upstairs, while the lower level is the place to be for live entertainment on weekends. An even more sought after seat is on the canopied patio which provides the best people watching in the city. Despite the mesmerizing parade of people strolling along Rush Street, the food is the real star at Carmine's. The menu features seafood, chops, and renowned signature pasta dishes which epitomize the Rosebud experience of stellar food and generous portions.

In Short
The dining room is comfortable, attractive and bustling. With its Gold Coast/Rush Street location and upscale supper-club setting, Carmine's sets quite a stage. The clubby, dark bar/dining area attracts a sophisticated, thirty- and forty-something crowd. In keeping with the Rosebud family dynamic, the menu is Taylor Street Italian fare, from chunky minestrone and house specialty chicken Vesuvio to satisfying zuppe di mare overflowing with perfectly cooked seafood and linguine in a tomato white-wine broth.
