    Calamari was overcooked rubbery. Service was great food needs work.

    Some of the best red sauce I've had. You will love it too.

    I wanted to express my gratitude to Carmen's for a flawless catering order. We needed to pick up our food the day prior to our event, and Ray could not have been more helpful with instructions for us to "finish cooking" our items. I am sure this was not typical for them and they really took it on stride.The food is Carmen's, so of course, it was great.

    Prompt service and good bread, the rest was a disappointment.

    First and last time for sure. Food is not good, the place makes me feel disgusting.

    All about the Spedieni. Capital S. It deserves to be a proper noun it is so good. Tender and juicy, it is like heaven...if heaven were rubbed with garlic and butter and breaded. Choose the sauce of your choice...I have had them all and you cannot go wrong. Simple = Carmela. Briney = Beatriz. Creamy and cheesy = Julian. Or step it up and have it Oscar. Those scallops are perfectly done.There are a few places that are MUSTS when we drive through or stay in KC and Carmen's is one of them. The staff are so polite and relaxed and the atmosphere a perfect blend of classy and comfortable, it feels like the kind of restaurant you can take your time at. Sit back. Talk with your family and friends. Don't rush. Enjoy the food and company. That's what dining should be and is at Carmen's

    Visited this establishment for the first time. Our party was seated relatively quick for the size of our group. The waiter (Sean) was very attentive making many passes by our group to check on our status and make sure we had everything we needed. The timing of our order from salad to entree was very good. Carmen's Cafe likes garlic however done tastefully, just keep a mint on hand post meal. Service was excellent but would have really enjoyed garlic bread of some type with my meal. All meals received good reviews all around the table. Portion size was good as well, everyone had a little to take home.
