Always 5 star experience!! I highly recommend Carbone's. Staff is great! Food is great!

This visit negates any possible positivity I've experienced at this place in the past. We canceled our dinner reservations and came here to celebrate our anniversary (I know, it was my choice) which was a huge disappointment! Our server, Sophie (name on the receipt) was disheveled looking, in dirty clothes, announcing a very productive, phlegmatic cough without covering her mouth, was eating and drinking behind the counter the entire time we dined. Between the time out back to vape and the bathroom, she checked on our table twice. I was irate and disgusted at the same time, but was grateful for our food. Hopefully she was having an off day and this isn't the norm. If it is, god bless her coworkers! I'm really reconsidering revisiting this place! read more

See all

If you want amazing service and food, this is the Carbones to go to. Gives small town feel with big Italian American taste. The hoagies are always on fresh bread and large in size along with a great price. Pizza always comes out hot and done well. They also have a small selection of alcoholic beverages if you choose that route. The menu selections are great and will definitely provide you with a filling meal at a great price! read more

Nobody called to follow up. There are management and worker issues at this location. Very sad. 46 year customer. read more

Carbone's Pizzeria - St. Paul Park, MN (December 3, 2024) Walking into Carbone's, the mouthwatering scent of pizza instantly gives you a warm, cozy feeling. The space itself is charming--an open room with booths and tables that's always buzzing, especially on weekends. The staff are incredibly friendly and knowledgeable about the menu. We ordered a variety of items: a half order of Italian Cheese Bread (2 pieces, $6.00), a 14" Special thin crust pizza ($24.00), a 7" thin crust pizza ($7.00), and a Whole Assorted Hoagie ($14.00) or half ($9.00). Italian Cheese Bread - This appetizer is a fantastic way to start the meal. It's topped with melted mozzarella cheese and served hot with a side of marinara sauce for dipping. Absolutely delicious! 14" Special Pizza - Topped with pizza sauce, sausage, pepperoni, onions, green peppers, mushrooms, and mozzarella cheese, this pizza is bursting with flavor. We substituted banana peppers for the green peppers, and it was perfect. Generous with toppings, you won't leave hungry after this one! 7" Cheese Pizza - If you're looking for something smaller, this 7" pizza is the perfect size for a light appetite. Simple, cheesy, and satisfying. Assorted Hoagie - This sandwich is a standout. Made with ham, salami, mozzarella cheese, red onions, chips, garlic butter, oil and vinegar dressing, lettuce, mayo, and tomato, it's absolutely packed with flavor. The hoagie is heated, which keeps the bread soft and easy to eat (no tough crust to hurt the roof of your mouth). This is one of my personal favorites, and you can also order it as a half. If Italian isn't your go-to, Carbone's offers a variety of other options, including burgers, sandwiches, and wraps. There's something for everyone! A little personal touch: My dad originally owned this pizzeria, followed by my brother, and now my nephew, Brian, runs the place. While my dad and brother focused exclusively on Italian fare, Brian has expanded the menu to include more diverse options, making it even more accessible to a wider range of tastes. read more

First, I'd be suspect of many of the 5 star reviews. Several of them are from people living in California, there is even one from Hawaii. I live a mile away, there is NOTHING in this area drawing people from those areas and no nearby hotels that people would choose for vacations or business. For 20+ years we ordered one pizza from them every week. (that's a LOT of pizzas) and each week we said "this might be the best one yet!) Then in 2018 something horribly changed. We got several pizzas that were undercooked. I mean raw dough in the middle and no color on the bottom of the crust. THEN, the onions and green peppers were replaced with some hideous almost minced subsitutes. The pieces used to be a half inch to an inch long on both the onioin and the green peppers. Now they are 1/8th inch at most and taste almost pickled. I'm sure they are out of a #10 can. We waited several years to chance it again, ordering in 2023 only to find it had gotten even worse. AND at that time they delivered us the wrong pizza and brought our order an hour later. I don't know if the manager or owner retired in 2018 or what happened, but we'll never chance it again. read more

This place is the hidden gem of Saint Paul Park! We drive out of our way to go here because the food is always wonderful. My favorite is the pizza! My mom loved her assorted hoagie and the toasted Italian cheese bread is always a family favorite! read more

This will always be my fave Carbone's in the area. I like that it is a little smaller, it's way easier to get service that way. If you are getting takeout, quoted times have always been accurate and they always have coupons in the local mail and/or from grocery stores. The pizza sandwiches here are one of my favorite things on the menu. Basically like a calzone and get whatever toppings you like. Food always comes out hot. The thing I wish they would do a bit better is have a second person helping in the dining area. There always seems to be plenty of cooks and they have a couple people that seem to just do the cleaning up, but there are always a couple people just standing around, while the one person assigned to the dining room is running around like mad. Maybe those other people could handle getting beverages or something...? If you don't mind things taking a hair longer after you order, the food is good. read more

Speedy fast delivery! Our food arrived half an hour before it was supposed to. The pizza was a-okay. The waffle fries would have been delicious if we dined in but got a little soggy on the drive over. Overall a great quick delivery option for pizza. read more

Very bad food and service. Delivery took two hours and food was cold and horrible. Avoid this place, and especially avoid delivery.

Wow, what a disappointment. We ordered the chimichangas from the takeout menu for $15.95 a pop. We should've kept driving and gone to the holiday superstore down the street, I could've had better Mexican at a fraction of the cost and gassed my car up at the same time. The chicken was dry the tortilla was tough the cheese sauce was more or less nonexistent and the lettuce sour cream and guacamole tasted like it just came off a Sysco truck. read more

This has been our favorite restaurant locally for 18 years now. We eat in occasionally but buy more as take out. They accommodate our food allergies and the manager knows our food allergies pretty well by heart. Management is really great. Pizzas are flavorful and the hoagies are delicious. They have some new menu items now. My husband had bleu cheese burger and he enjoyed it. So if you haven't tried them for awhile, it's definitely worth a visit. It's now October 2018. Everything is still great. We're kind of addicted to the deep dish Italian fries. The only logical treatment is more I fries. read more

Refused to deliver 2.8 miles from restaurant. Told they do not go over the river. Poor service.

I grew up with Carbones. I mean I grew up with THE Carbones. They are all probably spinning in their graves with what this has turned into. The food (not pizza) is truly disgusting. We quit buying that awhile ago. We recently ordered a pizza from them. I meant to order from another company. This flipping pizza took so long to deliver, I was actually sleeping waiting for it. My husband was long in bed and this restaurant is honestly five minutes from our home! I would never buy food here again. They don't care about pasta or Italian food. I'm an Irishman and I make better Italian. read more

I like the comfort Italian foods that Carbone's offers. This location offers a serenity just because of the location. The staff is friendly, the food is good at an affordable price and they get your order right the first time. read more

The pizza served here is the best along with great service. We really enjoyed the pizza!

This place is great! The pizza is the best around. The combination of the crust, sauce, cheese and the sausage was perfect. The quality of the ingredients lends itself to a quality experience. If you're in the area and don't visit you're missing out. Thank you to the staff for the great time! read more

Absolutely the worst pizza I've ever be ever had! Thin soggy crust with a ketchup sauce! Never ever get the shrimp on their pizza.

Best food and service! Customers are fun and the owners are incredible! read more

Has been our go to pizza place for over 30 years. The hoagies are great! The staff is always friendly. Try everything on the menu... the deep fried ravioli *chefs kiss* read more

I love this place, every time I come home for a visit I have to pick one up. The cheese and sauce are perfect, I love the taste of the fresh meats and veggies. My only complaint is you really don't get a ton of toppings. But it's better than most pizzas. read more

I agree with another reviewer this is NOT the Carbones of the old days; HOWEVER the pizza is still AWESOME. Our many out of town family members insist Carbones is still THE BEST pizza ever and visits are not complete without a family trip (now we order take out) to Carbones. We have never had a bad pizza from St Paul Park pizzaria and turn around is FAST. Please note: avoid the location off Woodbury Drive the additional driving time to St Paul Park is worth every mile. read more

Wanted to try the Carbone's in Saint Paul Park and it exceeded my expectations!! I have had Carbone's Pizza in various location but this one is by far the best. Direction were easy. Ample seating. Very clean. Expanded menu that does not disappoint! Service was quick, efficient & very friendly. I am making this my favorite Pizzeria. Will bring the family back soon. Nico is amazing read more

I ordered pizza at 4PM it's 6:48PM and I still don't have any food. I have called 3 times and the "manager" is ambivalent, if not rude. LAST order from Carbone's. EVER. Skip the headache and order from Bella's or Red Savoy. read more

Another great lunch option and consistently good American style bar food and Italian options too. Love the cash back option on Yelp for dining at most locations! read more

Carbone's is great no matter where it's at. With the IGH location being no exception.

We always go to Carbone's in SPP when we want pizza. Their pizza is by far the best! But so is the customer service... We went here on a rainy night for pizza. We waited quite awhile - longer than usual. Our waitress informed us that they were backed up with delivery orders and it would be another 10 minutes. They gave us cheese bread on the house while we waited! Love, love, LOVE our Carbone's! read more

We ordered chicken wings and when my son was eating them he said, why is taste so "mushy" I took one, bit in and it was COLD, RAW!!!!! When I told the manager he said, "I'm going to kill him!" and walked away. I said to the waitress, "raw chicken can get someone VERY SICK! She said, "ya, I know" smiling at me, as if eating raw chicken was funny! During this another customer got her entire order wrong. This time the manager said, "wow, now I look like an idiot." RAW CHICKEN......need I say more! read more

Great pizza at good prices. Not one of the original Carbonies in the area second one ever built in the metro. If you like thin crust Carboni's pizza you will love this place. read more

Who doesn't love Carbones pizza? Great food. Good service and prices are in line with quality of food. Nice that they now serve beer! Great place for families or just a date night. Owners care about food & service quality for sure. read more

Just moved to the area, went there and ordered both wet and dry rub chicken wings very good. I will be going back!
