Carino "Japanese Italian Kitchen"

WOW. Just wow. Where to begin… what an amazing little spot, located in the perfect area of mission. Ambience is amazing- quaint, well decorated and intimate, with giant windows for natural light and people watching. Insanely good wine list here, there’s truly something for everyone. Don’t even talk to me about the food. I wish I could have everything on the menu at once, everything we had was absolutely incredible. We tried a pasta dish as well as one of their dinner specials and seriously contemplated getting a second order of everything to go because it was THAT good. For how full we were, and the quality of food, the price point was MORE than acceptable, worth every penny and then some. Lots of gluten free options as well, though this was not applicable to me it is nice to see. The service from JD was impeccable. Would have never known he was new as he was knowledgable, attentive, and overall awesome. He really made a great experience an unforgettable one. I can’t wait to come back, it may have to be tomorrow because I think I will dream of this place. This place is a must try- don’t think about it, book now if you love yourself. Thank you to the whole team, you are all my hero’s. See you soon!

My husband and I became here for Valentine’s Day this year and it was such a memorable experience. Our server was phenomenal and the food was absolutely amazing. Their gluten free options were great and they made me feel safe to eat here. We will definitely be back.
