Great Italian food and great service. Grew up in Yonkers and Carlos has always been a go to for me and my family

Food is delicious and consistently five stars. The staff is very accommodating. On Valentine's Day, roses were given to each woman at the restaurant. This is above average for a local Italian restaurant. read more

I had come to Carlo's several occasions and all the meals were delicious. We usually order chicken or pasta dishes. Prices are reasonable. Everything is great there. The services are prompt and friendly. The place can be packed during weekend dinner time. I suggest that you come early or try to make reservation. read more

My family&friends we eat here at least three times a month we love it food super delicious and fresh service is outstanding

classic Yonkers restaurant. I have been eating here since the 80s. my favorite dish is the sliced and seasoned steak.

Very good and authentic Italian food in New York. We visited during the week and everyone enjoyed their meal. They have gluten-free options as well! read more

Loved, Loved, Loved this place! They know how to cook mussels and veal! The bread was wonderful also. Our wait staff was attentive and ensured order was to our taste. When we are in town, we'll be sure to stop in for a delicious meal with generous portions! read more

Great food and service. Looking forward to visiting again. The chicken dishes were delicious as was the fried calamari

I made dinner reservations for 15. We were giving Carlo's another chance. We had gathered here before a few years ago as our regular place was closed for renovations and were disappointed. I had catered a private event for my daughter's graduation from Carlo's and another larger party they catered food for 150 people I threw. We gave it another try and were disappointed again. We were wedged in the back, could not move at all, getting to the bathroom caused a struggle for us and many tables in between us and the bathroom, appetizers and food came at different times. The food was just "OK" the service not the best and being jammed into an overly packed dining room was less than ideal. We will not try again. Very disappointed. I'll have to find another place as a back up. Carlo lost us as customers and I'll find a different place to cater from. read more

Waited 25 minutes to pickup a lukewarm pizza. I ordered for pickup was told 35 to 30 minutes. Arrived at 30 minutes, woman at the register turned around didn't even move and told me mine wasn't ready. I paid, tipped and stepped aside. She tells me another 10 minutes. I sit down with a view of the pizza oven tracking what's going in and coming out. Our special order is not any of the pies. I get a text meantime that my pie is ready for pickup. 25 minutes later I am certain I hadn't seen my pizza make it in the oven. I approach the woman and ask again and she's confused and asks my name again. And turns to the pizza guy and asks. And sure enough if she moved from her perch she would have seen it when I first came in. It was cooling on the shelf. Time for Carlos to get counter people that can move more than a foot from the register. No apology, just pushed my pizza at me. I got a lukewarm pizza because of laziness. read more

Their food is good but their party room pricing is ridiculous to be down a galley next to a loud & hot kitchen with bussers and staff walking past your guests. They charge a "facility" fee that is ridiculous for the venue. They also don't have speakers you have to bring your own. To grab a bite great! To have an event PASS there is more bang for your buck in Yonkers read more

Made reservations, had to wait 45 minutes to be seated while standing in the dining room. Food was delicious and service was good. I typically order takeout. The food when Dining in is so much better . read more

Occasionally we'll order trays of food for family events. First off, they offer gluten free pasta which makes me extremely happy. Second, our absolute favorite is the chicken scarp. I've had this dish from other restaurants and they are not all created equally. I think theirs is my favorite. The chicken is so juicy and tender. The sauce is tangy and spicy. Just hits the spot. The only down side is that we asked for our side of pasta to have scarp sauce on it instead of red sauce and they added red sauce. Other than that, everything is always delicious. read more

Carlo's Restaurant - Chicken Scarpariello - Italian Near Me - Yonkers, New York

Carlo's was recommended by a coworker. So we decided to go. I have to say I have passed this place at least once a week for a long time and never gave it a thought. Well I'm disappointed in myself for missing out because this was one of the best meals I have ever had. The service was amazing and our server was knowledgeable and was able to give recommendations. The space is a little tight for me but the food makes up for it. It's family style for the most part but you can get individual portions which are huge. I can't say that anything that I tried last night we not amazing. They also have a pizzeria behind which I plan to try. But this is my new spot to sit down. read more

Excellent. Classic, old school Italian. Went for a work function and I cannot say enough wonderful things. Portions were huge, prices were reasonable and service was superior. We started with clams and burrata for appetizers which were both tasty. I personally had a pasta but the rest of the table had chicken or veal and everyone raved about their choices. Carlo's has a great upper room for larger parties. Will definitely be back the next time I am in Yonkers read more

I've been here before and everytime it does not disappoint, it was a group of 15 people and we had calamari (delicious), chopped salad (to die for), baked clams (great), chicken Francese (amazing) and chicken scarpiello (which was good) unfortunately I liked everything but the scarpiello so I left it to a side and ate everything else. The ambiance is really nice and welcoming. However it was a packed place last night so the service was understandably slow because of how busy they were. Unfortunately when it was time to leave the women who came over to ask for boxes, and I stated no for the scarp I stated oh it was good but not to my liking she made a face and shook her head as if I told her it was disgusting - it wasn't nasty I just didn't like it. I found it really rude of her to shake her head with a face because we still paid for the plate - we spent $945 + tax and there was no need for it. Other than that I will 100% be back. UPDATE - after speaking to owner Pete he was extremely understanding and was nice enough to welcome me back to his restaurant. read more

Does customer loyalty not matter anymore? I've listed receipts to show everyone how many times I've order from Carlos ($1,000+) just for this year. It's very clear to see that I'm a big time customer since they used to be my family's favorite restaurant. This all started , January 22nd was my last order with them. We had a particularly hard time receiving our order, after waiting 2 hours for our food we called Carlos for an ETA just to be told that our food had been delivered already. Clearly that's a shock to everyone since we never saw a delivery person and this a place that has delivered to us over 30 times. I spoke to the manager and after a bit of back and forth they replaced the food and I thought that was the end of the situation. I called back on January 26th to place another order and was promptly told that they will no longer serve us. I then asked to speak with the owner (Shelia) and she told me that because they replaced about 4-5 orders in the past that were not up to quality, she views it as too much of a burden to keep me as a customer and her words "we can't satisfy you". Then told me not to return. She also went as far to tell me that she believed her driver had delivered the food, over her longtime customer that has no reason to lie and has a proven track record of over $1200 worth of food in one year. I'm writing this review because I'm disgusted and appalled by the behavior shown by the owner and managers. I've been a longtime customer of this restaurant and to be told that they feel they can no longer satisfy my family and told not to return is almost a slap in the face. I just want to put my story out there for anyone that wants to continue coming here. read more

Food was delicious, service was excellent, noise level was perfect, parking is easy with the parking lot.

The food here is remarkable, from appetizers to entrees, however the service is spotty and slow. To be fair, it's always crowded, but the wait staff, in my opinion, are gruff and make you feel like you're bothering them. I don't recall, even one time, a waitress, coming over to check my satisfaction, or the accuracy of the order, once the food has been brought to the table. I go back time and time again because of the great food and close proximity to my home, but I find it difficult to tip (even fairly), because I never feel respected, or valued as a customer. The ambiance is trattoria style, very casual, but again the food is excellent, and worth the aggravation in the long run. By the way, I do tip fairly, 20-25%, but resent condoning bad service with a decent tip. read more

If you are looking for a great Italian restaurant that' offers famiky style dinners at reasonable prices with fantastic and friendly staff, you should make a reservation and go to Carlo's Restaurant on Tuckahoe Road near the corner of Central Avenue! They offer parking right off Central Avenue( ( the lots entrance is just south of the Dunkin Donuts). We had a fabulous dinner! Our waiter was Norm and he seemed incredibly knowledgeable and treated us like old friends! My biggest regret was just discovering this wonderful restaurant after living in Westchester for almost thirty years! Fortunately the place was packed with much smarter guests who made it their business to come more often. If you are celebrating a birthday or special anniversary, the waiters make a great fuss which adds a great deal of pleasure for everyone in the dining room. We started with a family style Chopped. salad that was enough for twice as many guests but we took the leftovers home, so we weren't unhappy and it was delicious! We each ordered great dinners. I had one of the house specials, sesame encrusted salmon with a citrus sauce that may have been one of the most amazing salmon dishes I've ever eaten. It was baked with a crisp topping that added so much flavor that I'm still enjoying that experience hours later.Every one received large portions of food and none of us could finish everything on our plates! However our meals were so delicious we had Norm Pack up everything so we could enjoy the leftovers tomorrow!!! read more

Always outstanding service. Food is exceptional and plentiful with many specials offered every day. Carlo's is our favorite go to restaurant in Yonkers. read more

I literally drive all the way up here from Astoria Queens, that's how much I love the food here. I'm not exaggerating chicken scarpariello from here is my favorite meal of all time. Like if I was on death row and I had a last meal that's what it would be. Also just the regular red sauce is incredible. Everything I've had here is good (chicken Marsala, steak sliced and seasoned, even the pizza) and the bread!!! I'm shocked by some of these bad reviews but if you notice they're mostly all because of service and wait time. Yeah you have to wait bc they are busy bc the food is so good!!! I will continue to drive up here and hope they never ever stop serving chicken scarpariello!!! read more

Very good attentive service. Authentic Italian ambiance. We enjoyed the Veal Marsala with spinach on the side and a berry and goat cheese salad . We had espresso and hazelnut gelato , a special that day, for dessert. Portions were generous. We will be back when in the area. read more

Excellent food and very personable service. Relaxed casual restaurant more like family style

Carlos has been our go to takeout during the pandemic. My benchmark for an Italian restaurant had always been veal parmigiana. Carlos veal parmigiana has consistently been excellent. The potato croquettes are round and delicious. The sauteed spinach with garlic tastefully done. My critical daughter has had several chicken dishes and had praise for them all. My wife has also found Carlos' food to travel well and tasty. read more

Good nice and good food. Love the place. Nothing else to say and I hate this review page that it's have to be 85 character

Amazing food and the staff are very friendly. Wonderful family place. The steak is absolutely delicious cooked to order and I love the broccoli rabe. It's a must go , everything I have had there was delectable. read more

Great Italian food in a cozy atmosphere. I highly recommend getting the Brasciole Over Rigatoni! read more

I literally just got home and I needed to write this review... The staff is awesome. They make it look easy. Very family friendly. At times extremely busy but THEY ARE WORTH THE WAIT!!!!

Carlo's Restaurant - Calamari Marinara - Italian Near Me - Yonkers, New York

Excellent food, friendly staff - like dining at our favorite place back home! Definitely recommended for any occasion!

Okay so I ordered from the pizzeria downstairs that is seperate from the restaurant upstairs, which is for complete larger meals and sit down lunches/dinners. First of all, I ordered a chicken Marsala slice and a regular slice to go. The guy behind the counter in the yankee hat was friendly and we got talking about the NY Giants and NY Jets football teams. He was wearing a yankee hat & I had on my NY Jets cap. This is how we started talking sports. Now back to the food, I walked out of there feeling suckered by the price. How in the name of Jesus and all his saints did I pay 11$ for a plain slice and an average sized Chicken Marsala slice?!?!?!?!??! Wtf! I'm so disappointed in myself for not saying anything about this ridiculous pricing. I'm staying away just for that b.s. I will come back to try Carlos restaurant upstairs cause it gets rave reviews from the Yonkers locals. But you can count on me not ever entering that overpriced pizzeria again! RIDICULOUS PRICES! read more

Nice food, nice people. They used to be one of my go-to take-out places. BUT but the prices have just gone crazy. An individual pasta dish plus a tossed salad (iceberg lettuce with 3 cherry tomatoes, a sliver of onion and a sliver of cucumber) totaled $33. That's nuts. It's a shame. I will miss them. read more

The staff was wonderful, the food was great and the sangria.... Yumm.. That's why I'll be going back with a guest tomorrow. read more

Excellent omg the service and the food was beyond out this world!! I came here to celebrate my mother birthday and the hospitality and services was so good. I will definitely come back!- read more

My girlfriend and I have gone to this restaurant on numerous occasions. Always, always, always,we've been treated terrifically. Unfortunately, today our server was Stephanie S. Not attentive at all and we asked for things that never came to the table. Other tables placed their orders and meals were delivered ; not us. When we asked Stephanie what the delay was, she said, the kitchen was backed up, but how does that explain everybody around us being served a meal, checks were paid, and they were gone. Needless to say, we are very very disappointed. This is not a Carlos, the we're accustomed to us. Stephanie, maybe the service industry is not your cup of tea. read more

Best braciole you'll ever have and they make an excellent chicken parm. Bring a doggie bag. You'll never finish the portions. Start off with the house sales. Seems simple but it's a great salad. read more

Amazing food and even better service. I've been to hundreds of Italian spots from LA to NYC and this was definitely one of my favorites. Will be returning! read more
