Johnny Carino's Description:
Carino's is a solid Italian chain restaurant with locations littered across the U.S. In Oklahoma City there are north and south Carino's where you may want to whet your appetite with Sicilian fire sticks---tomato-basil tortillas rolled with Italian sausage, chicken, bacon, tomatoes, jalapeños and Italian cheeses sided with spicy marinara sauce and ranch dressing. For a cooler start, go for the baked stuffed mushrooms filled with spinach, Romano cheese, red onions and garlic and topped with lemon basil cream sauce, Roma tomatoes and basil. The massive portions make it possible to share almost any entrée. Try the lobster-stuffed ravioli or the steak Italiano---beef medallions crowned with marinated peppers, onions and mushrooms in a Cabernet tomato sauce---served with rosemary potatoes. Carnivores gravitate toward the five-meat Tuscan pasta brimming with marinara meat sauce, Italian sausage, bacon, ham and pepperoni. Ready for dessert? The mini desserts, enticingly served in stemmed glasses to elevate the enjoyment, are the perfect size after a filling meal. Go for the New York cheesecake. Carino's also offers a respectable kid's menu and gluten-free dishes.
