Didn’t enjoy the atmosphere or the food. Was our 1st anniversary dinner. We felt like we were in a party of 6 people with how we were were sitting on top of the other couples next to us. Didn’t get service, no greeting or water, for over 20 mins after we sat down. Meatballs were super dry, pasta was super over cooked and gummy. Wife and I were pulling it out of our teeth. Was not the caliber of meal, service, nor atmosphere we were expecting based on how they label the restaurant. Would not recommend and will not be back
We had a reservation but it took a long time for someone to pay any attention to us and seat us. The food was pretty good but the menu items described as 'spicy' were not spicy.
Had an amazing Caesar salad, Octopus and the best chicken parmigiana I’ve ever had, accompanied by a bottle of wine. This restaurant is very good
We have always had great meals here, last night was no exception! They were short staffed (like everyone these days) but the server was great, the was food amazing. We started with the baby eggplants grilled octopus, delicious as were all of our meals. Sunday macaroni, (enough for two people) we took more than half of the meal home. Chicken Parma was amazing and always a great call also. The short rib over risotto and the crazy Alfredo were outstanding. Why wait in all of these lines when you can make a reservation here and have and have a memorable meal!We look forward to our return.❤️
Customer service was really good. Food was amazing and the waiter was very professional. Would Recommend.
Food was a five but service was a two or less. We were seated quickly but waited 15 minutes at the table just to place our drink order. We waited another 15-20 minutes to be able to place our food order. As I stated at the beginning the food is excellent but with the service I gave an average score of 3 stars.
Originally tried to get a table on a Saturday night at Carmelina's but that was a no go. The host recommended Domenic’s since it’s a sister restaurant. Such a great recommendation. The food was INCREDIBLE and just a 2 minute walk from Carmelina’s plus no long lines. This is definitely a hidden gem in the north bay. Attentive servers and AMAZING food. Definitely a win win combination.
My fish and salad were not the freshest. Dining partner's pasta di mare seemed pretty good. The portions are large. The wine selections really well priced which is always a pleasant surprise.
Great food, wonderful staff, quiet, reasonable prices. We'll go again!
We went to Domenic’s as I hadn’t made a reservation at Carmelin’s and the waiter informed us this was their sister restaurant. First off, there is no reason this should not have got 5 stars. However, there were a couple of things missing with our dining experience. If rating based on food alone, then this definitely deserves 5 stars. The reason if got four however were:- Cutlery had food stains (in particular the fork had left over food on it), no biggie but still not the best experience.- The Pinot Grigio wasn’t that great, it was the cheapest wine on the menu, but still was missing that crisp taste I associate with Pinot- Staff were overworked, we did have a wait to get seated, but it was worth it. The lack of front staff meant we over ordered not realizing it was family style. Something I definitely miss about Italian restaurants is that you get a chance to talk and ask for recommendations, this was missing as they were both harried and running around keeping up with the orders and take out orders.Loved the food! I will come back or order a take out, but can’t give 5 stars due to the above.

My family and I went there on our recent visit to Boston. The food was amazing. The homemade pasta is exceptional. Food quality is incredible. The service was also excellent- wait staff and bus boys were very attentive. Highly recommend!
The minute you walk in, you are greeted with a sincere, warm welcome. WOW, Something that has been definitely lost in our restaurant society. I think you all know what I mean. Please, DON'T EVER CHANGE!!You guys are perfect?Great wine and food menu selection, friendly staff, clean establishment, nice atmosphere, pleasant local spot and a few personal dishes from the chef that you should all try.Will definitely go back.
