We cannot say enough wonderful things about Carbone's Prime and their team! From start to finish, they went above and beyond to make our wedding celebrations unforgettable. When we...
confirmed our booking, they included day-of coordination services in their quote which was VERY helpful.
We hosted a welcome party for our out-of-town guests the night before at Carbone’s Prime, and the ambiance, food, and service were impeccable.
For our wedding, the variety and quality of food was unmatched—from hand-passed hors d’oeuvres to the raw bar, and grazing tables (we added on the raw bar and the oysters and sushi stations were a bit of a splurge, but our guests couldn't stop raving about them).
You HAVE to add the live pasta station — we did the cacio e pepe and it was a hit. Every dish felt thoughtfully prepared — we seriously we had so many guests tell us this was the best food they’ve ever had at a wedding.
They also handled the bar service and let us curate three different signature cocktails that perfectly matched our theme and even provided a coffee/espresso bar that was a huge hit with our guests.
If you couldn't tell, we're big foodies, so we also added on their late-night food truck with bites that were the perfect way to end the night!
We are forever grateful and would highly recommend them to anyone planning an event!

We had our wedding reception in the Sunroom in Carbone’s Prime. The experience exceeded our vision and would HIGHLY RECOMMEND you to have your wedding reception at Carbone’s if you...
want a dinner party styled reception! We chose the plated dinner and it was amazing, the servers were the sweetest and highly professional. Our reception was about 4 hours long and the level of organization and execution of every dish was outstanding – we could not have asked for a better run event for our wedding! Our guests are raving about the service and food. My one and only regret was that I was too full to eat everything! Luckily, we had some extras packed for us without asking and it was great being able to eat my wedding food for leftovers over the next days.
Beyond the service, our coordinator Mary-Beth at Carbone’s Prime was amazing from our initial inquiry of the space to the conclusion of our reception. Her communication was quick, and was always happy to help with any question or request. She helped us curate a menu, talk us through the options for our budget, décor set-up and made the planning stress-free. We had our wedding cake delivered to Carbone’s and after our cutting of the cake they served it to our guests and packaged the leftovers. Upon our arrival her greeting was genuine and we could tell she was genuinely enjoying our reception and went above & beyond ensuring we had a great evening. Thank you Mary-Beth and all our servers – we cannot thank you enough for hosting our wedding reception!

Carbone's was the caterer for our wedding. There are not enough words to describe what an AMAZING job Carbone's did. It all started with Mary-Beth the event coordinator for the res...
taurant. She was beyond professional and answered any questions we had right away. She also helped incorporate every part of our theme of our wedding. The little details she thought of were so great. The managers that night Olivia and Mark made sure everything went just as planned. They didn't miss a beat, you can tell they know what they are doing and truly take pride in their work. The servers that night were just as wonderful. They made sure my husband and I ate and that we had everything we needed. The food was beyond AMAZING thanks to the great chefs. First starting with our display table which looked fantastic. Everything from the assorted stone pies to the tenderloin meatballs were soooo good. Then onto the hand passed hors d’oeuvres which I'm pretty sure people could not get enough of them. The chicken with hot cherry pepper wrapped with bacon and fried arancini were to die for. We also had a great pasta station. As for dinner, people could not stop talking about how great it was. We did dinner family style and all our guest could not stop raving about it, even to this day. I can't forget their signature pistachio martini, which was our signature drink, it is to die for. Everything from the presentation to the food was beyond exceptional. Everyone from Carbone's was so generous and can't wait to have more dinners with them!!
