Way before the I35E ran through East St. Paul, Italians and non-Italian folks alike headed down Payne Avenue to the original Carbone's on 7th for the good stuff. That means everything from olive oil and fresh bread to pasta and pizza. The market part of the operation closed up after many years, but the restaurant continued to build a dining legacy. Now there are more than a dozen Carbone's stores around the Twin Cities, each with a slightly different ambience and varying hours, but all have the one element that is true to tradition: really outstanding pizza. Each pie is a composition of Old World sauce and crust recipes and a range of fresh ingredients that give it distinctive taste and personality. Pastas and some American dishes are served at most outlets, but the pizza is the main attraction. You can eat in or have it delivered (or pick it up like they did in the old days). And regardless of the restaurant's expansion around the Cities, this pizza surpasses chain outlet taste and quality.

    I was born and raised in the Twin Cities, and now live in suburban St. Louis for the past 22 years. I have yet to find a pizza as good as Carbone's! Every time we go back to the Twin Cities, Carbone's is a must stop! I miss their pizza so much that I have been tempted to start a franchise here is St. Louis. If anyone knows about any Carbone's franchise opportunities, let me know.

    I've had pizza in Chicago, New York, Phoenix and a host of other places. The best is still Carbone's! My dad introduced us to Carbone's as kids and all of us still love it. My brother makes a point of going to the Randolph site every time he's in from Portland! All 5 of my kids adore Carbone's pizza. Hands down it's better than any of the other places listed (we're tried them all).
