Cucina Carini

We hosted my daughter-in-law’s baby shower at this wonderful restaurant this past Saturday.
First, Cucina Carini is beautiful and has lots of natural light. Anthony let us use the entire large dining area so all 36 of us had plenty of room for a game table, beverage table and for the mom-to-be to open gifts. They have a bar area (no liquor though) which was the perfect area for our cake/dessert trays and for the shower favors. There was no cake cutting fee. The food was great. We’ve eaten both lunch and dinner here before but I was surprised at how quickly we all were served. Our servers were very kind and efficient, asking several times if anyone needed anything.
There was nothing they wouldn’t do for us. The evening before, they let us bring our boxes of decorations and even a large wicker peacock chair and the cake. They opened the doors to us that day at 9:30 AM for a noon shower so we had plenty of time to decorate. I wanted to hang a large 7’x5’ banner right where they had hung a large and beautifully framed art piece so I asked if it could be removed during the shower. The reply? “Sure! We’ll put it in the closet.” My deepest appreciation to Paula, Anthony, the cooks and the kind server who worked the shower that day who all were on their game and truly made our shower fantastic.

We had a group of 6 and everyone enjoyed their meal. I had crab ravioli, and it was excellent. I took some of it home as there were plenty, and my husband liked it too.
The rolls were very small but served warm.
Some of us had dessert. I shared a delicious carrot cake, and it was plenty for the two of us.
Wear a sweater if you tend to get chilly easily like me. It was noon, and they had just opened. It might get warmer later in the day.

Me and my husband was looking for somewhere new to eat for our anniversary dinner and Cucuna Carini more than hit the spot. Melissa was our server and she was walking in the door with us as we arrived. She went right to work and got our warm bread and even gave good suggestions for our meals. I even got dessert and she put “Happy Anniversary “ on the dessert plate for us. We will be traveling to New Jersey again to enjoy other meals at this restaurant. The food was delicious and the serving sizes was more than we expected. I recommend you make your reservation and go enjoy the atmosphere, service, food and relaxing music.

We held my daughters baby shower this past Sunday. I can't say enough about how accommodating they were. We had their restaurant turned into a pink winter wonderland with lights, fake snow, a giant balloon arch and more. Most importantly, the food and service was amazing! I highly recommend them if you a want a great italian dinner out or if you are looking for a fantastic place to hold an event.

The sauces (or gravy) on the pasta is great. The veal was so tender you didnt need a knife to cut it; was like it melted in your mouth. The staff is friendly and attentive. BYOB though I'm not a drinker I did notice most tables had brought wine for dinner.

We just left dinner here on busy Monday night and the four of us agreed that the food could not have been any better. My personal favorites were the calamari appetizer, seafood fra diavolo, and the bolognese.

The owner was on the dining room floor checking on tables and offering the staff a hand which is always nice to see. There’s something about a family owned and operated restaurant that makes me smile. We will be back again and again!

First time here! Cute spot for date night, friendly service, and great food! The bread was fresh and the dressing on the house salad was really good. The mussels and crab ravioli were delicious! My husband and I didn’t realize this place was BYOB - we’ll come prepared next time! Can’t wait to try more items off the menu!

My friend and I came to lunch here. It's beautiful atmosphere, quiet and private. Beautiful decor. The food was excellent. I ordered the tortellini alla panna, and my friend ordered the crab ravioli. Come out to support this local restaurant.

Great byob Italian spot. I enjoyed the lasagna, very tasty. All the meals were good. Service was great even though they were understaffed. Parking can get tricky as their lot is small.

Received a App delivery order tonight and all of the food was very good.
On delivery orders at this restaurant they allow you to put in special instructions and request and everything was exactly as it was ordered. The chicken cutlet and the pasta Fra Diavolo entree’s were excellent. We also enjoyed the wings and meatballs and certainly will order again soon.
Thank you

Got food for takeout. Pizza was decent and thin crust. The cheesesteak had plenty of meat, cheese and veggies. The garlic bread was extra cheesy and affordable. Would return to try some of their pasta dishes. Plenty of food at a good price.

Great Italian byob with delicious food.

If you can find a better local place I'll be amazed. Excellent all the way from pizza to dinner

As the Mother of the Groom, I recently hosted a wedding rehearsal dinner for my son and his future wife.
Cucina Carini was the perfect venue.
From appetizers to dessert everything was fresh and delicious.
My initial meeting with Anthony to plan the rehearsal dinner was absolutely a pleasure.
He was friendly, accommodating, patient, and answered all of my questions.
We had a semi private room for a party of 39.
I chose two appetizers, three entrees, and two desserts.
Everyone highly recommended the grilled salmon. It was actually better than the salmon at the wedding venue!
Great service, great food.

We went for the first time tonight based on a Facebook post. Glad we tried it! Food was good and plentiful! Service was good. It's a small, out of the way type of place but very nice inside. We plan to return.

We had an amazing dinner with our besties. Paula is always a pleasure to have as our waitress. Delicious food and awesome service too. She is very warm and welcoming to us. Beautiful decor and ambiance. We brought our out of town friends here for their first time. We all loved our meals.
My husband and I have been dining here for many years now and always enjoy ourselves.❤

Had a luncheon for 35 people. They were very accommodating and food was very good !

We had my daughter’s bridal shower at Cucina Carini one recent Saturday afternoon. I can’t say enough good things about this small and delicious Italian restaurant! The owner is very accommodating and knows how to set up a party. The food was delicious and the space easily accommodated our 45 guests. This place is a BYOB and they set a table with champagne, wine and sangrias along with the dessert and gift tables. We simply walked in, ate, shared a leisurely lunch with our friends and family and watched the future bride open presents! Everyone had a great meal and enjoyed the shower thanks to Glenn and his staff! Thank you!!

Amazing family-owned Italian BYOB. Food was fresh & fast, accompanied by friendly service even though we had a large (& loud) party. Will definitely come back with the husband to enjoy more stuffed long hots, meatballs & calamari.

Dining is superb at Cucina Carini. A really great Italian Restaurant.
