Best Kid Friendly Restaurants in Upper West Side

We are from Canada and celebrated our 25th Anniversary in NY. We chose Carmines for the wonderful reviews we read. The food was delicious, and the value was outstanding. They serve family style so one dish can easily feed 2 to 3 people. Keep that in mind when looking at the pricing. Absolute 5 star experience. Wait time was minimal with reservation and we booked 2 months in advance. We would 100% recommend this restaurant and their very professional staff made the experience perfect!!!

Everything we ordered was very flavorful. The shawarma hummus was amazing. The chicken was extremely moist. Portion sizes were very generous, so share an entree or be prepared to have extra to take home.

I’ve been in the city a bunch of times and passed this restaurant many times without trying - had a family day in the city and kids love burgers and shakes - so thought i would give it a try and happy that I did. The burgers were really good, the shakes really good. The service was great - thank you Stefanie. My only suggestions is that you show go in very hungry and not over order as everything comes out oversized . The pretzel barely fits on the table (just kidding) but it’s huge . Lots of food and wish I didn’t eat breakfast or lunch . Next time (and there will be one) I know.

Has the greatest HAPPY HOUR - loved the mussels - good sliders - $10 wine and on Mondays it’s all evening. Restaurant itself is attractive - good service - great staff - what’s not to like

Still a great choice for homey comfort food in a friendly, rustic atmosphere.
