    The seafood linguini was full of Parmesan cheese. Would not order it again. I will go back on a lunch time to see how the noise level is then. My friend had the same meal and we both could not find any crab meat / maybe the Parmesan Cheese overload killed the crab taste.The shrimp did not have a shrimp taste. Just not good all the way around.

    Great food, great service and great ambiance. We were met at the door with a friendly smile. Our server Yo Yo was personable and knowledgeable. The service was prompt and the food delicious. A true gem of a restaurant for this area.

    This location of Carson’s is very large. It can accommodate many diners but the downside to that is it is very noisy! It was hard for us as a table of 6 to even hear each other talk. The food, drinks and service were very good, as always. So….glass half full.

    We had a reservation for 5:45pm and we arrived on time but they did not have our table as the hostess gave it away. After waiting 15 minutes they offered a table in the bar or we could wait longer. After another 10 minutes they sat us at a table with patio chairs that were very uncomfortable, which we asked to be seated at table in the actual restaurant. They said we would have to wait longer for a table even though it was now past 6:25pm. They stated the delay was due to reservations at 4 and 4:30 “hanging out” after their dinners and not having left 2+ hours later. We ended telling them to cancel our reservation (now over 45 minutes after our scheduled time) and never once did they apologize to us.
