Café Carmela

This place was absolutely amazing. Decided to check out the place on my birthday with a friend and had a lovely time! Food was out of this world good and the staff was so kind. We really enjoyed the hot honey wings and traditional pizza. Also their cucumber ranch was so refreshing and paired nicely with the meal. Definitely plan on coming back, can’t recommend enough.

Cafe Carmela is the best! This is the first time I ordered from here and I will be back. I didn't know where to order from but I figured I would give into the "hype" the restaurant has had and I can tell you. I am not disappointed! I ordered the American Boy which the pizza had the right crust to cheese to sauce ratio 😋 the garlic Buffalo parmesan wings were to die for! Don Creech's steak was one of the best cheesesteaks I have had in a long time. Took me back to yester years when cheesesteaks were made correctly. And to finish it off the truffle fries 🍟 well were absolutely amazing 👏🏻 I will be back for sure 😋

Excellent food. Authentic southern Italian cooking. Homemade pasta. Great sandwiches with fresh, delicious bread. Eggplant parmigiana sandwich was among the best I’ve had (half already eaten by the time I took a picture). Highly recommend this gem hidden in a strip shopping center on Holme Avenue in the lower Northeast.

This is one of the best cheesesteaks I’ve had in ages! I have tried this on a friends recommendation and I loved it! The Dough of the pizza had a nice bite to it as well. I definitely wanna try some other things and also try eating in the restaurant. Rumor has it that it’s hard to get a table and by the looks of the crowd, that seems to be true. Wish me luck for next time!

I’ve known about Cafe Carmela but haven’t gotten to visit until last week. This is now my third visit and it is hands down, a heavy hitting contender in the NE. Pizza is perfect. Pasta delicious. Desserts are excellent. Atmosphere is welcoming and warm. The staff are all outstanding. I cannot say enough positive about Cafe Carmela!
