I never understood the high ratings this place receives. I had dinner with the family here and the food was overpriced and quite tasteless. The atmosphere was quite blah. The interior could really use an update. The only ok thing about this place is the water view. My family and I won't be returning. read more

My husband and I went to Carlucci's Waterfront today for my birthday. Everything we had was delicious and the white sangria was amazing. We will be back again soon! read more

What a wonderful find on yelp. Great service and amazing food a must go if you are in the area

It was a good evening. View was nice, service was good. We thought our meal was tasty, as well. All courses came out in an appropriate amount of time. Second time I've been here for meals and second time I've been at least satisfied. read more

Great menu. Great specials and coupons. Love the outdoor seating on Rancocas Creek You must check them out. My new favorite

I hadn't been to Carlucci's in some time and was happy to see they had freshened the interior, plus the old musty smells were gone. It was a scorching hot day, but as we sat by the windows overlooking the creek, we never felt it. Not only were our crab entrees delicious, but the chef ,who made sure my meal was gluten free, won me over. With my server's suggestions, I substituted fresh asparagus and mixed vegetables for fries and cold slaw. Much better choices-- and the lemon wine sauce with the crab cake was unique. Personalized service should be rewarded. Maybe my asparagus could have been slightly crisper, so what? The crab can compete up and down the east coast. We're going back and taking friends there with us this week. read more

We enjoy the place, very friendly, nice atmosphere, good food, love having dinner on the outside patio over looking the water on nice days. They have great specials. read more

Beautiful view and tasty food! I love carlucci's for lunch. The free bread is a nice touch.

This is advertised as Italian. While the view of the Rancocas is lovely,the food was mediocre . The lasagna was tough, there was hardly any ricotta or mozzarella in it. The rigatoni with vodka sauce tasted out of the box and jar. Something anyone could throw together quickly . For the prices they charge the pasta should at least be homemade . The freshness of the salmon was second rate. The mashed potatoes were dry. People obviously come for the ambience not the food. read more

My husband and I visited your wonderful establishment on Saturday evening. As we were brought to our outside table wish we had reservations for; we were sat right next to a party of ten. The patrons were having a great loud time; which is fine...I just wish we were given the choice of another table as it was just the two of us. We couldn't hear anything we were saying to each other....my husband did not want to address the situation that nite; but I feel the management and hostesses needs to be mindful of this. The food and service was very good. read more

Decided to finally try this restaurant and figured go for happy hour. Nice day to sit outside since they show a beautiful patio. Arrived found out happy hour only at the bar inside. No one at the bar thou was under 65. We then decided to enjoy the weather and pay the full price menu. Beautiful patio and food was amazing. They have a gold mine out there they don't use. Need some music and have a small bar on the patio. We waited for our drinks for awhile and came back watered down since it took so long to get them from inside, the ice melted, mentioned to waiter and did nothing. I would go back for the food and patio for a quiet time. read more

Had a great lunch at Carlucci's Waterfront, today. We enjoyed our lunch very much. Since it was my friend's birthday, I took the check, and put it on my credit card, leaving a cash tip. Thought the amount was high, but didn't review the bill carefully, as it was a birthday luncheon. When I checked once I got home, I discovered that I was charged individually for each cup of tea, original cup and two refills, for a total of NINE DOLLARS! Highway robbery in my opinion! read more

i want to come this weekend and dine outside, but these reviews regarding the need for bug spray is making me change my mind. has ti bee addressed? read more

Came here for the first time tonight. This place is a hidden gem! We entered the restaurant to a big crowd. The ambiance is elegant and there was a pianist playing music throughout the entire night! My favorite part of dinner was the tiramisu... The best I've ever had!! I would recommend checking out this places daily specials and happy hour. We will be back! read more

Had a great after church meal here. The appetizers where spot on and the entrees where excellent. The view from the dinning room over looking the river adds to the dinning experience. I look forward to visiting again. read more

We went there for my husband's birthday & had a gift certificate. It was dark so we couldn't really enjoy the view. The food was very good. I had the veal parm & he had lamb chops. We shared clams casino & coconut shrimp appetizers & a slice of carrot cake for dessert. The food was very good. The service was also good. It's not much to look at but kind of charming. We were able to to take advantage of a 20% discount from Yelp. We will definitely be back & will probably bring others with us. read more

Visited Calucci's for the first time for Mother's Day with my family and we has a terrible experience. This place does not live up to all the hype. The best feature is the outside patio which we didn't explore because of the weather. First the interior looks very dated and is in need of some renovations. The floors boards near the bar look warped from water damage, the dinning room floors have aged carpets, and the cielings look like theu are going to collapse on the guests at any given moment. Our waiter was horrible, I can't even recall his name...he never offered us anything, we had to stop him to request extra drinks, bread ect..We waited about 40 minutes for our food and we're just about to leave the restaurant right before our food came out. The food was a total disappointment and very poor quality. My family and I were all wondering why we would pay the price and wait so long for food that was fried in old oil and seemed pre frozen/microwavable,not fresh. The dishes were $30+ a plate and not worth it at all. My husband is a seafood connoisseur and he swears that his "lump" crab cake was filled with imitation crab meat. Our bill was over $100 for crap food and service. A man who appeared to be the manager went around to tables near us to greet them but skipped right over us. I had to apologize to my guest because I recommended this restaurant; I was completely embarrassed. We will never go here again!! read more

Great restaurant. If you can get a spot on the back patio during the summer it is a great experience! Try the calamari.

We love Carlucci's! You can tell that they are trying to improve the inside and outside of the building- it seems they are always doing construction. That is good because it seems a little stale and old, very rough around the edges. In the warmer weather the patio is fabulous, but in winter you can almost smell the age of the building. That being said, the food here is always excellent! While admittedly not always consistent, consistently delicious. What I mean is, once we had a scallop appetizer and it was so good we decided to get another one. The next one was very good too but the sauce had a completely different flavor. We love the people who work here, they seem to enjoy being there more than in corporate restaurants- the Mom and Pop businesses always have that family feeling, wish there were more like this! It prompted me to write today because we were at the bar last night, where the bartenders are always very friendly and efficient even when you can tell they are busy, and there were people around us complaining. I have been in retail my whole life and i know how hard it is to please everyone, but these did not seem like people that came in with a good time in mind and seemed hyper critical, maybe looking for a freebie. We only sit in the dining room if there is no room at the bar because we love the atmosphere and the barmaids, and in case those people did complain while there, we counter with praise for the young ladies behind the bar. Thank you Carlucci's for being a great place with great people, and food, and views, we tell everyone to go there!! We will be back soon!! read more

beautiful waterfront. close to home and the staff is always so kind. the food there is so good & everytime i go there i am satisfied with my experience. read more

Yet another great meal tonight. I had the vodka rigatoni. It was the best. Carlo and his staff are always wonderful. So friendly and so professional. Always feels like family. Food is always amazing. Prices are phenomenal. I tell all my friends. The best restaurant in south jersey. read more

Been coming here for years and have always loved it. It was an easy choice for our anniversary dinner. Food and service are excellent. Tried the antipasto appetizer this time and it was amazing! Husband had the braciole and it was amazing. I had a seafood Amalfi dish and it was delicious. Consistently pleased with everything here. Keep up the good work! read more

Went there today for lunch with 3 of my friends. 2 ordered chicken salad club, that had very little chicken. I ordered a chicken parm sandwich, which tasted like shoe leather. We were very disappointed...The only thing this restaurant has going for them is the waterfront view. read more

My wife and I have eaten at this restaurant several times. We also took friends there. Never had a bad meal. Food is excellent even my grandkids were impressed. We have eaten inside and outside. We love it. The service is great and waiting time for the food is minimal. We highly recommend this restaurant. read more

We celebrated Valentines Day at this restaurant and everyone was so nice. Drinks at the bar were yummy and I cant wait to come back to sit at the outside patio. I had the prime rib and it was good but a wee bit tough. What made our night was our server, Derek. He was friendly and made wonderful suggestions. He is such an asset to this place and the service was flawless. It was also nice to see the owner's son going around to each table welcoming quests. These little things will make me a lifelong customer at this place and I will tell others and come back soon. Wonderful evening! read more

Food was good and service was great. I went for a staff appriciation brunch and will definitely go back with my family.

Going to bust a good view great atmosphere love the view love the food I wish they have the coupons buy one get one anymore

Second time here, but this time for dinner. First time was Anniversary lunch in the summer so we loved the outdoor terrace on the water. Even inside, the atmosphere is wonderful and service was impeccable and friendly.Food was very good and they were able to accommodate my special requests due to allergies and diet. I had the seafood, which usually comes over pasta, but they put it over spinach at my request. I'm allergic to mussels so they gave me plenty of calamari and clams instead. Would have liked 1-2 more shrimp instead, as there were only 2 on the plate. Everything was delicious as were all the dishes of our party. Only complaint was the mozzarella "tower" which was more like a small hill and definitely not enough for the table, which they said would be & at $12 should be. Would like to see more choices for appetizers if they are going to push them so hard. We were disappointed that they don't offer the price fixe on weekends, because we went there to try it. The restaurant was not very crowded, so they should consider offering all the time in the winter months. Definitely a go to place for occasions. Our friends were disappointed that they could not use the 20% yelp discount for first timers, but none of us could get it on our phones in the restaurant. read more

Have been here quite a few times growing up, and coming back for the holidays, I knew what to expect. It's a good restaurant by Burlington County standards, but if you've been outside of the area before and come back for the holidays, you know that this place is so overpriced and doesn't offer anything of quality. First, the decor is so outdated you feel like you've been transported back to a 90s banquet hall inside. The Christmas Eve menu was a mixture of fried food, steamed bag veggies for sides, and pastas in jar-like sauces. Among our dishes, we had the filet (40$ for a steak that wasn't prepared properly either the first or second time and was the size of a baby's fist); chicken francese (supposedly in a white wine sauce, but really just was a creamy/congealed butter sauce). This place is ok for senior citizen groups looking for a slightly-fancier alternative to a diner, but if you're going to pay the price this place charges, why not just go to Philly or NYC for quality food? read more

We were there this past Saturday, April 28, 2012. The people was friendly and the food was excellent. We had to wait to get our table, but we had fun. I had the Chilidean Sea Bass,it was very good. read more

The food here was very expensive for the quality - $150 for 3 adults. And the food choices were rather boring. But most importantly, the service was unbearable. The young lady was just so snarky and downright rude. We tried to cajole her into a better mood by being light-hearted and commiserating with her about her miserable life, but really - is that the customer's job? It didn't work anyway. We ended up quietly asking for another wait person. Also, do check your bill before you pay. We found that we were overcharged by about $40. (Wow! That would have been truly ridiculous!) It cost us an extra 15 minutes of hanging out there while the manager checked and corrected the tab for us. (No apology received though.) None of us is planning to return in this lifetime. read more

Went here for the very first time by a recommendation from a real good friend Nancy. The hostess Marissa I think her name was on the phone was so grand. She was polite the whole time and gave us to an excellent young man Nick. Service was great. read more

great food, great ambiance, fair pricing. i've loved this place since it was the pirates inn

Where is Chef Ramsay when you need him!!!!!!!! This was our first time here. Food is obscenely over priced. $12 for 5 "Hand made Mozz sticks" which are not, they are your typical sticks from any pizza joint. As far as I am considered that is deception and poor business ethics. Its fraud. I am paying for hand made and you are giving me frozen distributed bullshit. $18 for subpar chicken parm that is as thin as 3 credit cards stacked, and big as a index card. You get bigger and better portions at any pizza joint or road side diner for 10.99. Place is very run down, walls need paint, ceiling tiles sagging. No free refills on fountain drinks at $3 a glass that is the size of a kids cup. Had a unlit candle on the table, they finally decided to light it after they handed us the check. Have a off key piano player playing on a electric keyboard stuffed in a corner, like what you would find in a low budget Ramada Inn bar on a Monday night. You would think for the obscene prices they would be able to afford free refills on fountain drinks and a actual piano. Table cloth was stained with red sauce. The female hostess was very rude, she rushed us to our seat, dropped our menus and as she quickly walked away with her back towards us she said "enjoy your meal".. We will not be returning. Only good thing I have to say is that our waiter was polite. read more

We were invited to a party hosted there. We were taken to a small room off the bar. The staff was running around confused and unorganized. We had no idea who our waiter was. Every time we tried to ask for some water or a drink, we were ignored as if we weren't there. I wasn't even finished my salad and the waiter took it while I was talking to the person next to me. The one waiter that took our order, messed it up. My husband ordered veal and received chicken. It took fifteen minutes after receiving our food for the waiter to finally recognize us as he was running by. He didn't even stop or look at us. The food was mediocre at best. I can't believe people stand there waiting for a table. Totally not worth the price either. The food was close to diner food. And the prime rib was old and grilled. Then they rushed us out of the room before our time was up. And when we cut the cake, they dropped icing all over the ground and stepped in it. So rude and unorganized the staff were. I will never eat there again. read more

My wife and I went there for a quiet romantic dinner on the creek on Saturday night. We made reservations via online and requested a window seat. Well, we got there for our 5:30 reservation, and were seated in the middle of the restaurant. When I said that we requested a window seat, the hostess said sorry we are having a large party tonight. (This might have been relayed to us during the confirmation of our reservation.) That was the first problem of the night. Our server was very tentative and quick on his feet. Problem two arose with the doors leading out onto the patio. It was a hot humid night, and every time someone went outside, the door was left open and a blast of hot air would rush through the dining room. The poor guy sitting next to the door had to get up at least 5 times to close the door. Half of the dining room was blocked off for a graduation party. Well, when they all arrived, forget any conversation you may have wanted to have with each other. It was so loud, it was really irritating. Our food came, which was very good. We found ourselves eating quickly just to get out of the place due to the rushes of hot air, and the noise. We landed up going to another place to relax and have drinks and a discussion. I am on the fence if I would go back there or not. It wasn't inexpensive; therefore I thought the treatment would have been better. Never saw a manager during our time there. read more
