Reviews for Carmel Kitchen & Wine Bar in Clearwater, FL

Carmel Kitchen is my favorite restaurant in the Bay area! Whenever my partner visits from Tennessee, we always dine at Carmel.... We both have many fond memories of lunches and dinners experienced here over the years. Excellent service, immaculatedining and bar area, delicious food, exquisite dining experience. Tonight, my partner and I celebrated our 20th anniversary. When we started discussing dining options, we both agreed: Carmel Kitchen!! The atmosphere is so pleasant and relaxing. Dining is available indoors or on the patio. We have enjoyed several nice meals on the patio. However, September in Floridameans lots of heat and humidity, so we chose to dine inside. The menu is very diverse and inticeing, with salads, pasta, chickenand seafood options. I'm hooked (I should try something new!) on the Rustic Grilled Chicken! Absolutely delicious. In additionto the great food, there is a full service bar available for all your favorite "adult beverages and libations!" Carmel isperfect for all occasions. It's an excellent location to dine with friends, family and business associates. Last, but notleast, I must give Janelle, our wonderful, friendly server, a huge "shout out " for providing exceptional service and making ouranniversary celebration dinner so pleasant! Check it out...you'll love Carmel Kitchen!!! Read more

Absolutely amazing food, great atmosphere and our server Ryan was outstanding! I had their butternet squash ravioli and the... flavor was exceptional. The best chocolate cake I have ever had. If I could give 10 stars I would! Read more

Literally so good & the ambience is perfect for a date or casual outing! I love the lighting and vibes but more importantly the... food is always amazing & nicely portioned. The prix fix is a great deal as well as their creme brulee which i am a huge fan of!Every day has a different flavor and it's always fun to see what's in store when I walk in. The staff is friendly as well and Iwould recommend! Read more

Came here with my mom for the first time. The inside and outside dining area is very nice and clean. The food was pretty good. I... had the sangria and grilled salmon with a ceaser salad and cheesecake ???? My mom had the filet medallions and pound cake. Itwas all cooked good, and I love the variety they have on the menu especially with the small and large portions and gluten freeoptions. I give 4 stars because it was $12.50 for a shrimp appetizer that me and my mom shared and it came with only 3 shrimp? Read more

Not only was the food fresh and delicious the staff were impeccable and very attentive. My sister and I went out for dinner at... Carmel's, and we each had the three course meal that cost around $20. For our appetizer we have the mozzarella meatball whichwas absolutely delicious, then we both enjoyed the lobster bisque with basil oil on top which was a fantastic surprise. Then fordinner we both had the chicken marsala and felt that the chicken although very tender lacked a little flavor. But we stillenjoyed it. Then we ordered the vanilla cream balay and salted caramel cheesecake, unfortunately the creme brulee fell veryshort of what I'm used to eating it was grainy and the sugar coating on top was burnt. As for the cheesecake it was very rich sobe prepared for that but tasty. I love this restaurant because of the weight stuff the prices and also the freshness of thefood. Read more

This is a great place for dinner, I am a brunch lover and this place does it right. Their mimosas game is on point and brunch... menu items delicious. I am a traditional steak and eggs kinda guy, they didn't disappoint. They couple next to me got thewaffle and came our as waffles, they were not as thrilled as I was and didn't finish their meal.
