Carmine’s returns: Gold Coast’s Italian icon is back

After two years of anticipation, Carmine’s has finally reopened in the Gold Coast, and the transformation is stunning. Locals will notice the dramatic new look—think plush leather, moody wood, and a sweeping staircase leading to a dining room with killer Rush Street views. The menu is a mix of old favorites (yes, the meatball salad is back) and bold new steakhouse classics, all with generous portions. Prices range from approachable to splurge-worthy, and there are options for every diet. Who’s excited to gather around the table again at this Chicago staple? Share your favorite Carmine’s memory or dish! #Food #GoldCoastEats #ChicagoDining
