Carmela's On The Extension - Middletown

I think this is a great Hometown restaurant. I spoke with the owner and she's great, made me feel right at home. I loved the lightly scrambled eggs w/ sausage gravy, the gravy was perfect and loaded with great chunks of Italian sausage, bursting with flavor. The Home fries were good, light spiced crispy enough. The wheat toast was thick and toasted/buttered nicely. The watermelon slice was a nice garnish and yummy to finish things off. Now on to the Homemade corned beef hash...., it was 50/50 corned beef to potatoes, it seemed to be the only item not seasoned well enough, although, it still, also, gets 5 stars, the Chalula hot sauce saved it and the 50/50 ingredients were better than most homemade corned beef hash I've had, and it was pure corned beef, not processed. I recommend big, I can't wait to go back for more eggs and sausage gravy and to try the pancakes, I'll want to try the the homemade corned beef hash again.

Great fresh food! I got the special blueberry lemon French toast and it was delicious. I would have wanted more blueberries on it, but I’ll ask for extra next time. The omelette tasted great, and potatoes were very well seasoned. I also want to mention how the fruit was fresh and not frozen. Overall great tasting food. Although I will say I hate the red, they need to paint the wall white.

I can’t believe I’ve never been here, the food is delicious! I usually only give 4 stars and save 5’s for those very special places! This place definitely deserves 5. Food was excellent! Service was excellent! Try the corned beef hash, OMG it was delicious! This is definitely on my radar and will be back and recommending to others!

Buffalo chicken rice bowl. I opted out of the cucumbers and blue cheese crumbles and had ranch on the side. It was better than expected. Just enough zing and very tasty.

Went there today for the first time. Never saw so many kinds of pancakes! Ordered one of the Strawberry Lemon Poppyseed pancakes. It was delicious with both strawberries cooked in the pancake and fresh strawberries on top along with fresh lemon zest. It was so thick had to take half of it home. Hubby loved the man scrambler and the home fries had a nice seasoning on them. Very cute, cozy place. Very good service, nice waitress.
