Excellent family business. Great pizza uses the freshest of meats , cheese and awesome sauce.

This is my go-to neighborhood restaurant. Guy and Rosa are awesome people and the food is fantastic! I recommend the Carini's Vegetarian pizza, well done and the pasta rustica. But all the food is home made and well prepared. And don't forget the bread. It's baked on premises and is awesome!

Beware of any reviews pre-pandemic. Sadly, this used to be a great hidden gem (I would always make a point of dropping in whenever I was driving through the area). The dine-in fare used to be great. Now, it's just another takeout pizza joint.

Good Italian comfort food. Lovely folks who own it.

One of my favorite places to get pizza in town. The crust is always thin and crisp. There are a variety of toppings to choose from and we often change things up and have been satisfied each time. Prices have gone up recently but the cost it still comparable (if not less) to other pizza places across and down the street. Currently, Carini's only does take out but their staff has always been kind and courteous to us.

I ordered a large pizza rustica mainly because it had shrimp on it , and I understand it being 11bucks more than a pepperoni pizza because of the shrimp $30.95. But I ate half of the pie and only found 2 tiny pieces of shrimp in total. So I probably paid about $200 buck a pound for the shrimp . It was tasty but raising prices is one thing which I understand. Just give me what I ordered

I can't say enough great things about this place. Friendly staff, fresh food, and in my opinion, the best red sauce I've ever had. You can't go wrong with this menu. This will always be my wife and I's favorite spot to eat. Covid unfortunately forced them to go fully take out, and we'll miss sitting down and chatting with the friendly staff, but man is this place worth the call and drive. We love Carini's and we wish them all the success.

I ordered 2 small pizzas (a bacon and onion pizza and a Carini's special sub onion for pineapple) along with a mozzarella fritta. We were charged $2 to remove a topping off a pizza, which is very strange (and charged another $2 to add pineapple, which I figured). I know this because when I called to confirm, I was told I was charged $20.95 for the special - $4 more than menu price and the orher things we ordered were the same price as the menu. Food was good, but sharing this for anyone else to be warned about.
Great people family owned and operated food is excellent.

Fantastic!!! Due to covid, carry out only and they don't deliver. Tried this place after seeing a FB photo from a friend who posted a delicious looking pizza. Ordered bacon and onion and any place that will cook the pizza with the bacon raw is my tupe of place. The pizza was GENEROUS with all toppings and perfectly cooked. Garlic bread was filled with so much garlic you can smell it tomorrow inside your car... perfect . Two young men working there were very polite on the phone and in person. This might be my new go to ?place.
