    My boyfriend and I went here for a steak dinner. I did the blackened ribeye and he did the cowboy cut. We ordered too many sides, and they were all so good, the Brussels sprouts in particular. The food was amazing and the service was wonderful.

    We have visited Carson's many times. In fact we only live about half a mile from the new location at Andover, and although it's very nice we still prefer the downtown location. It just seems more intimate. The service was great and our server Hanna couldn't have been nicer and or have been any more helpful.

    Delicious food with perfectly sized portions. The Ravioli Della Nonna was divine with a smooth creamy red sauce, the Chicken Parm light and delicate, and the spaghetti with meatballs robust and classic. The red velvet strawberry cake was otherworldly and the classic vanilla ice cream was a creamy gelato that stole the show! Definitely recommend!
