I went to Carmine's II on a Tuesday night because of a recommendation from a family member. I was pleasantly surprised that the food was SO good, the prices were so reasonable, the service was so great, and the decor was so cool. (Love the Rat Pack feel to everything!)
I had a chicken/pasta special, and my buddy had the Chicken Parmesan. Our appetizer of a simple mozzarella pizza was even great. Definitely get the house wines they recommend...they're perfect, and they know how to match a wine to your taste and foods.
I'd recommend getting a reservation however, because the place is small...and can get busy. Get there early and get a drink at the bar! You'll be treated like family!
Pros: Great food, good prices, great service
Cons: Small, can be busy
