Decided to check out this new restaurant on Main Street. This is a sister restaurant of Sangiovese (one of favorites). [[HIGHLIGHT]]First, very modern inside. Nice bar area visible from the entrance[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. The table seating is off to the side and back wall of the bar. [[HIGHLIGHT]]Bar area wasn't very loud but as soon as you get into the dining room it was very loud. Difficult to hear the waitress and my husband jokingly said why don't you just text me it would be easier[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]]. We ordered two glasses of wine - very few choices for glasses. Would like to see more choices. For our entrees we ordered frutti de mare and pappardelle. Pasta on both was cooked perfectly. Sauces had just enough flavor and not overwhelming. We enjoyed both dishes very much. For dessert we had the grilled peach with vanilla gelato - this dessert made us laugh as it was a bite size and cost $12. Didn't get a picture of it has my husband ate it in one bite! We also had the homemade tiramisu which was very rich and a better serving size for the cost. Overall, recommend this restaurant and we will visit again soon.

I had dinner here with a group of friends on a Friday night and they did seem to fill up so a reservation is probably a good idea to be safe. They have a nice selection of wines by the glass in both 6 and 9 ounce pours. I opted for a 6oz Chianti which was excellent. We shared a pizza-like starter that had zucchini chips and really enjoyed it. I had the rigatoni for my entree which included a really flavorful sausage and smoked mozzarella. It was excellent. For dessert I had the tiramisu which could have been shareable, but I ate a whole piece myself. It was really good and not so huge or rich to be ridiculous for one person to eat. Service was excellent and our server knew the menu really well. Like many restaurants, they seemed a bit short staffed with servers covering a lot of tables. We enjoyed not being rushed as we were having a relaxed night out. Important tip- the entrance is the blue doors...we all walked around front looking for a glass door..,look for the blue doors on what looks like the side of the restaurant. Parking is easy and free in the adjacent garage.

Came here for a friend's birthday for some good authentic Italian food and wasn't sure where we landed by the end of the night. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The minute you walk in you can't help but take in all the modern design and artwork.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I was quickly serviced and walked over to our table. Our server was very kind, quick, and professional. I ordered a glass of moscato for myself while I quickly looked over the menu for pasta options. My friend ordered the Agnolotti and I ordered the Tagliatelle even though it wasn't authentic as there were not a lot of options. We were told by the server that the cook is Mexican and wanted to try a fusion birria pasta dish. The Tagliatelle was pretty good even though it wasn't authentic and the Agnolotti was okay. Pasta seemed fresh but I am not sure the dishes were worth the $24 price tag. Other than that, overall pretty good experience.

Well, I'm a little torn on this. On the one hand, Tre is right up my alley in terms of being a hip, modern new restaurant in a killer location. And, it's Italian food, which is yet another reason to like it, solely on that basis. The service was also splendid. Here's where I struggle: I'm not sure where (or if) this restaurant fits in my life. In today's competitive dining scene in Carmel/Westfield, a restaurant has to have something that you crave - a dish or menu item that you start fantasizing about, at 4:30pm on a random Tuesday afternoon, hours after the Snickers you had for lunch has worn off. As good as the food is here, there wasn't anything we had that meets that standard. But, that's just me. I'm sure they'll do well.

The food and service were excellent! We would order everything again. The mushroom focaccia and short rib were perfect! They made my father's birthday very special. Chef Sal is truly the best! Can't wait to return!

It was our first time to visit Tre on Main in Carmel, Indiana. The restaurant has a modern decor that is very nice, cleanly, and up-to-date. Our server, Kate, was knowledgeable, friendly, and was very helpful with her recommendations and they were spot on. The support staff made were very observant and our drinks never were empty. We had the meatballs for an appetizer and they were delicious, though for us there was just a smidge too much lemon in the ricotta whip. The marinara sauce was spot on! The "Live and Let Die" and the old fashioned cocktails were excellent and the ice block had their logo imbedded in it for a unique touch. For our main dishes, we got the 1) Rigatoni and 2) the chicken and both were excellent, the sauces superb, and fair portions for the price. We would definitely visit again!

Follow the grand, ocean-blue doors that lead you into this upscale Italian restaurant and bar. It's located right on Main Street in downtown Carmel and there's a free parking garage around back on the north side of the building. We walked in and were greeted by a friendly hostess and noticed the busy, pretty bar off to our right. The lobby area and space is fancy and nice. We were then brought back into the restaurant and it was super loud. I'm not one to typically notice sound, except that we were put against a concrete wall that was rounded and concrete on three sides of the part we were sat in. All of the sound therefore hit us straight in the ears. I'm not even sure if there was music playing - that was just really loud sounds of silverware hitting and others talking in a way that wasn't relaxing. I wanted to share that because it's something that can easily be fixed with some fabric wall paneling to help build a more relaxing environment (my husband is in the audio industry and pointed it out immediately). The cocktail menu was fun and I ordered the "Naked and Famous" one, which has tequila, an herbal liquor, Aperol, and lime juice. It was strong but delicious and I would definitely order it again. They also have an impressive wine list and several beers on draft. I also appreciated that there was a mocktail listed ("phony negroni"). Our server shared the specials and they all sounded amazing. Then we started looking at the menu. There were SO MANY typos on the menu. Like, at least five. The dishes are all incredibly expensive, so when you read that there's a "saffron risotto carbonara with a 24kt edible gold leaf" but then you see that saffron is spelled with one f and that the word gold accidentally has two l's in it, you start to doubt everything else. If no one bothered to proof read the menu, are they going to bother with details of your food? I'm not sure. We found that to be super weird and continued to find misspellings as we read through. Strange. They were paper menus too, so would be easy to reprint on a whim so that customers can start with a good impression. We got the bread brought to our table and loved that it was hot, crispy on the outside, and soft on the inside. The olive oil combo dipping sauce that was brought with it was great too. My husband ordered the "pappardelle sunday sauce" and I got the pasta of the day with GF pasta. It had shrimp, red sauce, EVOO, zucchini, and some other spring vegetables. It was delicious. They only have the GF option in spaghetti form but I loved it. My husband's was delicious too. We were confused though, as his says it has "fresh pappardelle" but then other pasta dishes on the menu said things like "penne" or "fusilli" and didn't use the word "fresh" before it. The fusilli bolognese dish was $28, so I would expect that it's fresh, homemade pasta for that price. Yet, nowhere on the menu does it say that any of the pasta is made fresh or where it's sourced from, so it does make you question the incredibly high price tags. If it is homemade or sourced locally, that should definitely be something they share with customers out loud and on the menu so we understand where the prices are coming from. For two drinks and two pastas with no apps, salads, or desserts, our bill was almost $100. That is a lot. For customers to return, there needs to be a clear value stated in a bigger way. The food was good but we were just a little rattled by the juxtaposition of grandeur mixed with typos and little slip-ups (we were never offered parmesan, yet our neighbors were and while we were brought bread up top, they weren't brought bread until halfway through their entrees, etc). There is a big, beautiful private room here that would be perfect for business meetings, wedding parties, etc, so definitely pop in to see the space for yourself. With a few menu and sound changes, this place could really be something special and I am cheering them on.

I had high hopes for this new restaurant, unfortunately it was just OK. It's positioned as "fine dining", but it didn't quite meet that standard. My dish, the Pappardelle was 5/10, the ragu didn't have much taste. My boyfriend had the Bolognese, which was better 7/10, I ended up scooping some of his meat onto my dish to add flavor. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The location is a good spot on main street, pretty interior, but the acoustics were very bad. Extremely loud dining, struggle to hear your own table.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] The service was fine, there was a little buggy that took a swim in my wine, the waitress got me a new glass right away. All in all, I'd say pop over to the bar, grab drinks and you'll be happy. But a sit down, fine dining experience needs some work.

[[HIGHLIGHT]]Starting with the positives - the ambiance and the service here is great.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] I came here to celebrate my birthday with a few friends and the waiter super kind and knowledgeable and even brought over some balloons that another party had left behind, which was sweet. They also gave a complimentary tiramisu which was delicious! But the rest of the meal was okay. We ordered focaccia to start and they brought out some other type of bread like dinner rolls. Same with the pasta, one of us order the cacio e pepe bucatini and instead got a fettuccine with more of an Alfredo sauce. Not sure if they just ran out of what we ordered, but it would've been nice to know. I got the tagliatelle which was a fusion dish with beef Birria and it tasted great! But everything was extremely small portions too. We all spent around $30-40+ and left hungry. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant entrance is also hard to find, it's these big blue doors off to the side but doesn't have the restaurant name anywhere near it.[[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] Overall, a decent experience but some kinks need to be worked out.

Sit at the bar & enjoy! I highly recommend the mussels & sausage appetizer to start! Enough for two to share. The sauce is so delicious you'll want to tip the bowl and slurp til the end. OCon the bartender brought us a bowl of spaghetti to swirl through it instead and believe me you'll crave it! I the Pappardelle Short Rib Sunday Sauce. Oh My'! It's fabulous & enough for two! My husband loved the Champagne Poached South African Lobster Tail over vegetables with butter & saffron sauce over root vegetables (instead of risotto) and loved the presentation & flavor. [[HIGHLIGHT]]The restaurant is cool & designed beautifully with lots of Carmel ambiance![[ENDHIGHLIGHT]] There's plenty of parking in the attached garage too! Chef Oscar is one of the most talented chefs in Indianapolis & is proving his creativity at Tre'. Two words!...YES CHEF!
