Carmelina's 61a New York 111, Smithtown, NY 11787

"I was shopping today at Uncle Giuseppe's and decided to give Carmelinas a try. Any time I try a new pizzeria, I always start with some plain and siscillian slices. The plain slices were decent. They were a little overdone, but they tasted good. The siscilian was partly undercooked and tasted doughy. It probably could have used a few extra minutes in the oven. My slices did have some oven soot on the underside. Thankfully, i was able to remove it from the slices. The pricing seemed a bit high to me, but given today's economy who's to say what a fair price is."

"I had the pleasure of visiting Carmelinas Pizzeria Ristorante on my latest trip into my old neighborhood, Smithtown. My wife’s hairdresser was telling us all about this place so we went for a try. What they did to this restaurant was truly amazing, transformed from that old ring down pizza place to this beautiful modern and bright Italian pizzeria and Ristorante! As soon as we walked in, I was so impressed by the beautiful atmosphere, their wall art and as soon as I got to the counter…. Their pizza!!!! I was immediately drawn to their pepperoni pies! Seeing those prison discs all crisped and Curled up, I couldn’t wait to get into that. I ordered a neoplolitan pepperoni and Sicilian pairing slice. They heated them right up and man o man were they delicious. And the spices were huge too, see my pics My wife got the white pizza slice that was all gooey and cheesy! The owner was awesome, we spoke about how delicious the pizza is and that pepperoni full of flavor! Get in their and take a bite……quick!"

"9/19 went back to carmelinas and brought home different pizza for the family, sfincione, potato with rosemary, meatball, Garlic knot slice. White slice, white slice with broccoli and a capanota slice 9/5 I took home the bbq chicken, chicken bacon ranch, grandmas slice and a pepperoni slice. We tried a bit of each and it was delicious. Definitely best place around."

"I'm happy to see that Carmelina's in Smithtown is now open. Editing my review now that they've opened. Picked up a plain cheese pie and a dozen knots. The knots were tasty but would have benefitted from some Parm. The pie was tasty. The sauce definitely stands out from other local pizzerias, you really get the herbs and spices. Would have liked to have had more cheese. The crust and the cheese weren't consistent, the slices with the thinner crust were really good. The ones with what I would consider extra crust were chewy. The crust was tasty whether thick or thin. There is a service charge to use credit cards. I'd say it's definitely worth the trip to try them out. The Pizza ovens have been moved to the back. There have been very many excellent Pizza shops in this location, hopefully Carmelina's will be as good as they were."

"WOW I am so impressed with Carmelina's!!! Carmelinas had their soft opening on Wednesday and I immediately noticed the attention to detail with this new restaurant. There are hand painted murals on the walls and a warm and welcoming atmosphere!! I spoke with the owners, who are very friendly, and they told me that they completely remodeled the restaurant and that they are excited to serve the Smithtown community. Now lets get to the delicious food. Carmelinas menu includes everyones favorites. My friend and I got the plain slice and spinach ricotta slice. The ingredients on both slices were clearly high quality. After just one bite of the plain slice I could see the fresh seasonings in the sauce. The spinach slice had a light and airy crust. Both slices were packed with flavor!! Definitely a step up from your typical long island pizza place. The family next to us ordered the penne alla vodka and said it was one of the best they ever had. I am looking forward to going back and trying more of their variety of dishes!"
