Our freshly roasted coffee, our house-made breads, brick oven pizza, artisanal gelato, house made pastries, soups, sandwiches, all made from scratch. Carini Brick Oven Cafe, After being in the restaurant business for several years, we've decided to uniquely celebrate the Italian cafe culture that has not yet been represented in our area.
We focus all of our efforts into the quality of the food and beverages we serve, respecting the art & craft of artisanal production. We make our bread, pizza dough and soups from scratch, sourcing & picking all of the ingredients ourselves. From roasting our own coffee, preparing premium espresso drinks, to crafting pastries and gelato by hand, our cafe highlights the forgotten love that goes into the Italian culture.

After years in the full-service restaurant industry we have decided we wanted to honor the Italian cafe culture that is almost non-existent in our area.
In order to achieve that goal we created a place not focused on quantity and speed, but instead focus all of our efforts into the quality of the food & beverages we serve even when it takes much longer to produce these items in house, from scratch, respecting the art and craft of artisanal production, baking, roasting, and cooking.We have chosen to specialize in several different aspects of the cafe culture of southern Italy.

Some pairings just seem to be made in heaven. A great glass of a full-bodied red wine with a perfectly cooked steak, a thin crispy pizza and a great IPA in the summer months, but in our opinion some freshly roasted single origin coffee paired with artisanal gelato takes the cake. Coffee can be so many things to different people.

I was told to go there for pizza but I actually had an entree and had a spicy seafood linguine dish the sauce was way too watery. Had to spray and wash my shirt it what about minute I was way too wet should have been thicker and more flavorful. Had the bruschetta, and I could say was not the best I ever had. What are the Philly cheesesteak to go and it was on some kind of around fluffy bread and barely had any provolone in there and it tastes more like barbecue sauce I'm going to add a photo

This Italian American approves this establishment. I’ve gone several times and the pizza is made with superior flour, sauce is not too acidic or sweet, and quality of food is a bar above the rest of the pizza shops in this area. If someone is giving this place a bad review for its quality of its food then he/she has no true baseline to compare from other than frozen pizza. By the way, if you want fresh roasted coffee, Belgium beer and good Italian wine then look no further. There is a strong influence of Italian standards in this establishment. Give it a try !!

This was the second time my family was here. The first time was great last night it was terrible. The food took forever to come out and there were only 6 tables with people at them. The waitress brought the wrong beer and then forgot to get a diet soda. The food tasted frozen and then our server Cassandra was talking about our table right behind us saying rude comments and when we spoke to her or she came to our table it seemed like she wasn't interested in taking care of us. Not sure if we will go back, especially if she is our waitress.

Went to dinner with an old coworker to catch up. Great atmosphere, amazing food and our server, I believe her name was Lisa was absolutely phenomenal. I got the Lobster Ravioli with vodka sauce. Fantastic. Great time and the server made it that much better. We were full from dinner so we didn't get dessert but, I have had their gelato in the past and it was a fantastic treat.

Great food and service. The young waitress was really sweet, too. I received veal parmigiana, and I think I ordered chicken parm., and the veal version was really good. My aunt had shrimp Scampi, and that looked outstanding, with a generous quantity of both the shrimp and the pasta. There is an extensive beverage menu, and the iced tea was brewed really well. I really liked the Southern Italian decor. Thank you. Hope to go back.

Really beautiful place and enjoyed the late dinner date! I truly enjoyed the service as she was very friendly. Garlic bread was interesting I have to mention. Not sure if it was done differently than the garlic bread I'm used to but it was very strong in some flavor and not sure if it was fresh garlic or something else on it to alter taste. Still was good to try something different tasting! Enjoyed my main meal very much and it was so filling I needed to bring the rest home to finish the next day haha
