Menu & Drinks

At Carmine's, we keep things simple and satisfying. Our kitchen turns out Italian standards — pasta, entrees, and desserts — alongside bar favorites that pair perfectly with a cold drink and good company.

Guest favorites include:

• House-made pasta, prepared fresh daily
• Meatball sliders
• Garlic parmesan fries
• Wings
• Shrimp skewers on a bed of greens
• Mac and cheese
• Our famous "crack bread" — trust us, you'll want seconds
• Rotating specials like our creamy, buttery mashed potato bowl

Our full bar serves up beer, wine, and cocktails. If you're looking for a deal, our happy hour features well drinks, house wines, and beers at great prices, along with a selection of appetizers to snack on while you sip.

Whether you're stopping in for a quick bite at the bar or sitting down for a full dinner, there's plenty to enjoy.

Carmine's is known around East Hartford for its happy hour. Swing by on a weekday afternoon and enjoy discounted beers, house wines, and well drinks. It's the perfect way to unwind after a long day — especially if you work nearby.

Pair your drink with one of our bar bite appetizers and settle in. The atmosphere is relaxed, the bartenders are friendly and attentive, and you might just end up staying for dinner.
