History

The restaurant's founders had previously opened a deli, Torrisi Italian Specialties, and a sandwich shop, Parm.[1] Before opening Carbone, the founders conducted research by visiting Italian restaurants throughout New York City.[2]

In 2015, a second Carbone opened in Las Vegas,[3] located within the Aria Resort and Casino.[4]

The New York Times food and restaurant critic Pete Wells first reviewed Carbone in 2013, giving it three out of four possible stars.[5] The restaurant first received a Michelin star in 2013, when it was added to the 2014 edition of the Michelin Guide to New York City.[6]
