They have gluten free pasta, and it was delicious. Very good service, and atmosphere is charming.

Italian food is good but Israel made the experience out of this world. What a great guy. If it’s not Israel, I don’t want it!

What a wonderful dining experience. The food was great and the portions were large! Felt the price was appropriate. Must comment on our server, Israel! That young man was so attentive and checked on us a few times. Usually any other places I dine I'm lucky if anyone comes back to check on me and fill my water. He was informative in questioning every aspect of our meal and needs. When he served us he didn't give us an opportunity to request anything because he was always one step ahead of us. It was refreshing. Israel was also very courteous and kept a smile on his face. Just a great experience overall, thank you!

We are an older married couple and staff treated us like newlyweds. We were seated quickly and Tina steered us to good meal choices and great drinks from the bar. Food served hot and flavorful. Tina checked regularly and added some good humor and recommendations for local things to see. Great visit!

First time being at this Johnny Carino’s. Upon entering they had great music playing and the staff were very friendly. After having adventures in Cloudcroft, stopped to eat and use the restroom. Restroom was clean and organized. Sat down to eat and we were attended to almost immediately. Upon taking our order, the food came out rather quickly considering we were a large group and the restaurant was somewhat busy. The plates came out hot and delicious. The restaurant does check your ID if ordering alcohol drinks. The salads were great and the food was also great! Definitely would go again! Definitely need to try it out if you haven’t already.

Food was very Good. Stuffed Shells are full of flavor and cooked perfectly. Like many places, they seemed short staffed. Our waitress did a fantastic job handling a 6 top, 8 top and 2 4-tops!

We had the absolute pleasure of being served by Tina, and she was nothing short of amazing! From the moment we sat down, she made sure we were well taken care of, always checking in without being intrusive. Her kindness and personal touch truly made our dining experience special. It’s rare to find a server who makes you feel so welcomed and valued, and Tina did just that. If you're lucky enough to have her as your server, you’re in for a great experience. Thank you, Tina, for your outstanding service! We’ll definitely be back.
