"Carbone is designed to feel like you're dining in a glamorous old-school joint with Murano sconces and chandeliers, heavy drapery, and sleek jewel-toned seating. It's a throwback to a golden era, modernized with contemporary artwork. The cuisine, printed on an oversized half-fold menu, is an interpretation of classic Italian-American fare and is presented in similar fashion to its paper menu: over-the-top and memorable. Servers (or captains, as they prefer you to call them) are dressed in sharp three-piece burgundy suits with and navigate seamlessly around each other in the expansive dining space while oldies music blares over the speaker. Despite its grand, ornate environment, the dishes are meant to feel familiar and comfortable, like dining at Nonna's home on Sunday evenings." - Nila Do Simon, Jennifer M. Wood
