Italian Cuisine 🥂🥂🥂 Carbone Dallas

The stark contrast between the highly sought-after reservations at New York’s Carbone and the relatively easy booking experience at Carbone Dallas is quite notable. It would be a disservice to its reputation not to visit this place at least once. The dramatic Gucci-style decor and tableware make it an ideal spot for a romantic date. Pre-meal Bread 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The bread is insanely delicious, making me drool just thinking about it. Unlike the typical hard, dry bread often found in Italian fine dining—think ciabatta or grissini—Carbone’s focaccia is soft, oily, and fragrant with Italian herbs. It’s an unexpectedly delightful treat! Octopus Leg in Olive Oil 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 The octopus leg is perfectly roasted with a crispy exterior. Drizzled with olive oil and topped with crispy fried garlic slices, it’s paired with tangy zucchini and bell peppers. This refreshing appetizer is a great way to start the meal. (Note: The portion is a bit small, with only three small pieces of octopus leg.) Mixed Grilled Clams 🌟 The clam platter features three different varieties, each paired with uni, basil crisps, and breadcrumbs. I found the clams a bit fishy, possibly due to the freshness of the ingredients, but my friend didn’t mind. Overall, the dish was quite average and didn’t leave a particularly unique impression. Lobster Ravioli 🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 This dish was truly a standout! The ravioli is filled with fresh, tender chunks of lobster meat, served in a creamy cheese and lemon broth. It’s light and refreshing, making every spoonful a burst of lobster flavor. #RomanticLifeRecorder #StudentEats #ItalianCuisine #DallasCuisine
