One of Covington’s favorite restaurants has new happy hour specials.

Carmelo’s, the Italian restaurant located at 434 Madison Avenue, has introduced a happy hour menu that runs from 4 to 6 p.m. every weekday and is “just enough to hold you over until dinner.”

The menu offers the restaurant’s signature chicken meatballs or fried artichoke hearts with pecorino fondue for just $10, while a giant mozzarella stick or a serving of pepperoncini-stuffed fried olives with whipped gorgonzola will run you $8.
