Carmine's Times Square

Carmine's occupies a building on West 44th Street in Times Square and has served family style Southern Italian food to large groups for decades. Beyond its main dining room, the restaurant runs a second floor Jimmy Durante Room with its own private entrance, bar, restrooms and coat check, seating up to two hundred guests, along with the smaller Sinatra Room and a series of semi-private areas closed off with red velvet drapes for parties as small as twenty. A full restaurant buyout can hold several hundred more guests across both floors. The kitchen sends out its signature dishes, including porterhouse contadina and lobster fra diavolo, family style on oversized platters built for sharing among a group. Carmine's books private events through a dedicated events phone line and email separate from its table reservations, backed by a special events salesperson and a set of downloadable menus and floor plans covering lunch, dinner, cocktail receptions, and passed hors d'oeuvres. The restaurant has run this group dining operation for corporate parties, holiday events and large receptions for years.
