Reviews for Carlos & Carlos Restaurant in Arlington Heights, IL
Went here with the wife after looking up restaurants in downtown Arlington Heights and this place was awesome. We went at 7:30... on a Friday night and it was pretty packed. We started off trying our best not to eat the tapenade that came with the bread andfailing. Then we had the mussels and clams appetizer which was the bomb. We could have just drank that sauce by itself. Then mywife got the black pasta, and I got the pasta with short rib. Both pastas were super delicious but the black pasta took thecake. The sauce was so decadent it was loaded with seafood. We finished off with the creme brûlée which comes topped withberries. Overall a great experience and we will be coming back. Read more
such good food. The environment (in the summer) outside was so enjoyable. We went on a Friday night, and there was musicians... outside, and laughing and joy all around. The food was so fresh, and fit the mood. Read more
This place is awesome! Starting with the fresh bread, tapenade (the best), and seasoned butter that they bring out to the table... their food is delicious. I especially like the black pasta which has the most delicious lobster cream sauce. Carlos is alwaysfriendly and usually stops by your table to see how you are doing. They also have great drinks and desserts. I highly recommendthis restaurant. Read more
Good food, great atmosphere, service was almost non-existant, pretty frustrating when a party of 4 that arrives 20 minutes... after a party of 2 is leaving before you... Read more
Great dinner outside. The food was excellent, drink and service great!
Great atmosphere and staff! Overall, amazing value for the price. Highly recommend the lamb chops and salmon ravioli appetizer.
Excellent Italian food. Service is quick and efficient. This place is distinguished by its authenticity. No bar food here,... just a full range of Italian dishes designed to satisfy every palate. One odd thing..only time I have had a wedge salad with avinaigrette dressing (not bad, but ask for blue cheese). The deserts are something else...leave room because they are made onsite and delicious. I was so full I just ordered Tiramisu to go It looked so tasty. Read more
What a disappointment! Have been there many times in past, but last night was awful. No menu provided for >20mins at the table.... Salad included brown old lettuce and a dry lemon. Salon on the special was more that overcooked. Waitress could not have ignoredus any more than she did. Overall very bad combination. Read more
