Jordan Hoffman Foreign Policy “Carême” gives an international audience what it wants: rich food, lusty romps, and Napoleon. Jun 16, 2025 Full Review Jackson McHenry New York Magazine/Vulture For light fare — an amuse-bouche, essentially — Carême gets the job done. May 12, 2025 Full Review Randy Myers San Jose Mercury News Sinfully fun even as it gets more and more preposterous. Seconds, please! Rated: 3.5/4 May 2, 2025 Full Review Jeanine T. Abraham VisAbleBlackwoman (Medium) Apple TV+’s Carême is a decent watch Rated: 3/5 May 12, 2025 Full Review James Delingpole The Spectator Perhaps the Bridgerton crowd will enjoy this confection of sex, bad history and nonsense but to me it’s just an opportunity wasted. May 8, 2025 Full Review Ty'Kira Smalls Common Sense Media Carême is sensual, intriguing, and unique; Benjamin Voisin's portrayal of the "first celebrity chef" is charismatic and complex.

Lindsay N. M Entertaining period piece with beautiful cinematography. Benjamin Voisin portrayal of Carême is charismatic and captivating. Hope it gets picked up for a second season! Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 06/13/25 Full Review laurent b French-style libertinism, espionage, and a history lesson: Carême is a visual – and almost gastronomic – delight, beautifully crafted. It cleverly blends political intrigue and romance, set against stunning backdrops and costumes, and carried by a lead actor with irresistible charm. This is costume drama at its best! Rated 4 out of 5 stars 06/04/25 Full Review Audience Member Great show if you can read subtitles. Definitely recommend though not for children Rated 5 out of 5 stars 06/02/25 Full Review Antonio A estaba bastante reacio a ver esta serie, el tráiler prometía, pero ya sabemos que muchas veces engaña, pero wow, esta serie esta increíble, good writing, buena dirección, los personajes han desarrollado arcos bastantes agradables de ver. la tensión política parece game of thrones, diferentes ángulos y personajes, va mas allá de personajes buenos o malos, son personas atrapados en una red de poder, espiás, sexo y platos creados con ingenio y talento. Careme merece una segunda temporada, y solo espero que mejore. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review Stephen C 8 episodes based on a true story!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/28/25 Full Review Jackie H This is one of the best series out right now and highly underrated! It is thrilling yet seductive and the scenes are beautifully shot. I thought the Bear was amazing but this show somehow tops it! The costume design and setting is absolutely stunning and every actor deserves an award! I am rooting for a particular couple to get together- cant wait to finish the season! I only wish I could binge it all in one sitting 😩 Rated 5 out of 5 stars 05/23/25 Full Review Read all reviews
