Really good

by BallardP at Citysearch

We went on a Thursday night and the place was empty. Two other tables were occupied, both by couples likely in their 70's or 80's.

We ordered off the prix fixe menu and were really happy we did. Food was amazing, especially the desserts. I was a little bit disappointed that the menu was different from what was on the website as there were a few things that had sounded good to me that weren't available that night, but it wasn't that big of a deal as there were plenty of other things that worked for me. Dinner for 2 with the prix fixe menu, including appetizers, meals, desserts and three drinks and tax was under $100.00. Can't beat that! I will definitely be back!

Great experience...we'll be back!

We loved the outside of Carnegie's and just had to see the inside! The great news is that the restaurant lives up to the amazing architecture on the inside as well as the outside.

We tried the Prix Fixe menu; we started with the French onion soup and the tossed field greens. The soup had a great, hearty flavor and I savored it to the last spoonful. The salad was nicely dressed and tasted fresh and clean. Next, we had the Coq au Vin and the duck confit...both were perfectly prepared and definitely noteworthy. We finished with dessert (can't recall what we had) and wrapped up our evening.

All in all, it was a great experience and we'll be back!

Great French Find--in spite of the bad fake flowers

by KLynnPatterson at Citysearch

The four of us splurged and ordered an array of appertizers, entrees, and desserts. The onion gruyere soup was to die for. The calamari was tasty, and the smoked salmon with a potato cake was most excellent. The entree swere quite tasty and reasonable compared to Le Gourmand and others in the area., although the wines were a little pricey. I had the seafood marvarin which was well seasoned and had ample amounts of salmon, shrimp, and other seafood favorites.

The restaurant itself is quaint, and we loved the period lighting and other touches that honored the historical charm of this landmark building. Our only disappointment was the elaborate fake flower arrangement which seemed out of place in this otherwise classy setting. Fresh flowers would bring the room up to par with the food--really!

• Pros: Food, romantic, nice room, service, menu selections
• Cons: fake flowers, some listed menu items not available

AMAZING!

The food, the place, and the staff were amazing. Try the calamari, french onion soup, and steak bernaise...absolutely amazing. The steak was cooked perfect and was the best steak I have ever tasted. Also make sure you save room for the chocolate mousse...it is to die for!

• Pros: Great Food, Great Staff, Overall Amazing!
