Carleys Ristorante - Harrisburg (PA)

5 /5 Nick McDowell: Beautiful. What a gem in downtown Harrisburg. I live here since 2014 and did not even know they existed. Very attentive staff, music was amazing, just the right volume, not too loud. Beautifully presented. Amazing drinks. Food was excellent and everything was decently priced unlike other places in downtown. We WILL go here more often now! This please reminded me of those cozy hole in the wall restaurants in NYC.

5 /5 Grace: the drinks & food here are the best in harrisburg. Owen is one of the best bartenders I’ve ever met - his drinks are carefully crafted & taste delicious. The food is insanely good too - go with the pasta. We love this spot and can’t wait to come back.

5 /5 Chad Adams: This is the first time we tried Carly’s Ristorante in Harrisburg. We started with the pumpkin spice, espresso martinis and the burrata and both were absolutely amazing! The burrata was out of this world! I had the shrimp and crab Tuscany and my wife had the Bolognese and both were amazing! The service was top-notch and they made sure all of the food came out in a timely manner, the food is absolutely delicious in the setting is really cool in downtown Harrisburg. We moved to the bar and had a couple glasses of wine and the bartender who was also our server was super friendly and very accommodating. To top it off they had live music with a really nice gentleman singing, and playing the piano. Would highly recommend this restaurant if you are in Harrisburg, looking for really good Italian food, outstanding service and live entertainment.

3 /5 Keith Bentzel: I had hoped for a more elevated dining experience, especially after making the trip into the city for what I expected to be an enjoyable dinner. While the food and service itself was decent, the overall atmosphere fell short of expectations. Upon being seated, I noticed my chair was broken, and my beverage was flat. The space also didn’t feel as clean or well-maintained as I would have anticipated for the price point. These small details can make a meaningful difference in the overall impression. My first visit was pleasant, but this return visit left me uncertain about whether it’s worth the effort of coming back, considering the parking and overall experience.

5 /5 Melissa Mannarelli: Owen provided amazing service at the bar. We had an espresso martini with limoncello and it was amazing. We also split the artichoke, burrata, and smoked salmon flatbread. A true downtown Harrisburg gem.
