I loved this one! I had an amazing experience with my spouse & my friends. The cocktails were great with enough amount of alcohol. Starters were so refreshing & main courses were professionally cooked! Fish & duck highly recommended. The service & servants were also excellent.

We hosted our intimate wedding dinner at Place Carmin, & it was an amazing experience. Annie, the events coordinator, was an absolute pleasure to work with & made the planning process so easy.

The $90 set menu was excellent value-the food was delicious, the portions were generous, & every guest was impressed. The beautiful indoor dining room created the perfect atmosphere for our celebration, & the service was outstanding from start to finish.

Thank you to the entire team for making our wedding dinner so memorable. We highly recommend Place Carmin for any special occasion!

We went there for brunch & everything was excellent , the food, the hospitality, & the service. I highly recommend it. In my opinion, the only issue was the restrooms. They were not really up to the standard of a star-rated restaurant ,neither clean nor well maintained.

A great find. Michelin recommended is a bonus. We had gougères, veal tartare (one of the standouts),coquilles St-Jacques (scallops in a potato puree), razor clams (also memorable), the blood pudding tarte tatin (not for everyone, but very French!) & the roast beef dish that looked almost too pretty to eat. I also highly recommend the Paris-Brest.

The staff are very friendly & attentive. Fantastic cocktails & a good wine list. Would definitely recommend if you're looking for a delicious dinner.

Fantastic food & incredible service. If you have a large group, highly recommend the tasting menu where you get to try all of the popular dishes. Jean Michelle was our server & he was very kind to our group + great about answering the questions we had.

I went to Place Carmin for a solo lunch as I was in the area & I was not disappointed. The food a was amazing & the service was also top notch. At the time of this review (May, 2025) there is major construction on the street directly in front of the restaurant so please be aware of the possibility of severe traffic & the difficulty to find nearby parking. The restaurant played really relaxing jazz music during my meal which was a nice addition. Highly recommend & I will definitely return. Thank you for a wonderful dining experience!

FABULOUS!!! My husband & I had a lovely dining experience here on Saturday night. We had a lovely greeting as soon as we walked in, were seated towards the front of the main dining room, & was immediately greeted by our lovely waitress. She was personable, professional, & personable & really added to the wonderful experience! The restaurant has super high ceilings, a bar towards the back, outdoor dining (not open yet), & has a cool, light, airy vibe. We ordered cocktails which the bartender brought to our table, veal tartare canape, beef tartare app, the duck & sea bream, plus profiterol & crepe Suzette. Everything was superb, divinely French, beautifully plated, beautifully presented by the runners, perfectly flavored, & delicious at every bite. We are VERY happy with this neighborhood gem & look forward to going back. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!!
