Introducing Tre: Carmel’s Newest Italian Destination

Carmel’s dining scene is about to get a lot more exciting with the opening of Tre, the newest culinary venture from restaurateur Chris Evans. Located at 1st on Main, Tre brings a fresh take on upscale Italian cuisine, combined with an ambiance designed to transport diners to a luxurious escape. With this being Evans’ third restaurant (hence the name *Tre*, meaning "three" in Italian), it builds upon the success of his Sangiovese restaurants in Indianapolis and Fishers but offers a distinct twist on classic Italian dining.

What to Expect at Tre:

Tre promises a unique dining experience with signature dishes that range from grilled prawns to steak alla Fiorentina—each dish carefully crafted with a focus on flavor, presentation, and elegance. Under the culinary leadership of Oscar Perez, Tre’s menu is both innovative and grounded in traditional Italian techniques, ensuring that every visit offers something memorable. From a tantalizing risotto carbonara to creative seafood dishes, Tre is committed to providing a feast for the senses.

Wine and Ambiance:

What truly sets Tre apart is its commitment to offering not just great food, but an immersive experience. Renowned artist Jason Myers contributes an exclusive art series titled *La Vita* (Italian for "The Life"), which brings vibrant energy to the modern-industrial decor of leather, wood, and metal. Paired with curated smooth jazz from Coltrane and a wide-ranging wine list, Tre invites guests to indulge in what Evans calls a “two-hour vacation,” a chance to relax, unwind, and forget the stresses of daily life.

And don’t miss out on half-priced wines every Monday night, making the start of the week the perfect time to explore Tre’s extensive Italian wine selection at a fraction of the cost.

Visit Tre:

Tre is now open at 10 E. Main Street in the heart of Carmel. Whether you’re in the mood for an intimate dinner or a vibrant night out, Tre promises to deliver an unforgettable experience. Make your reservations today and treat yourself to a night of delicious food, fine wine, and inspiring art.
