This was my second visit here. It was by far the best Italian food I had in a long time. It started with the bread that came to the table. Excellent! We had the mussels. Large, very flavourful and a little spicy. I had the seafood pasta. Cooked perfectly and very generous in a tasty tomato sauce that was not spicy even though the menu says it is. The very in mushroom sauce excellent. Service excellent! All around a great meal. This restaurant is a great choice!!

All officiants very attention! I felt so cozy! It's a very warm, inviting restaurant with excellent food! I'd love to meet the owners, they're incredibly interesting people. Thanks to the chef and his team for such delicious and quickly prepared food. It's like when you cook pasta all day and it still tastes great!

Dining at Carisma is an experience defined by quiet elegance and exceptional cuisine. The refined blue and white palette creates an atmosphere that is both timeless and contemporary, setting the tone for a memorable evening. The subtle jazz music in the background adds an extra layer of charm, making the experience even more distinctive not every restaurant offers such a thoughtful and refined musical choice. The food is truly remarkable. Each dish is crafted with the highest quality ingredients and executed with precision. The homemade pasta is a highlight delicate, flavorful, and a clear expression of culinary mastery. A special mention goes to Marge, who alongside her husband Michele represents the very heart of Carisma. Their vision, passion, and dedication are evident in every detail, from the kitchen to the dining room. An outstanding dining experience marked by freshness, balance, and excellence. Carisma is a place that leaves a lasting impression.
