    We were visiting the city, excited to have the giant Corned Beef sandwich that Carnegie is well known for. Very disappointed. Sandwich was very small. Should have ordered the typical breakfast food. Now that looked amazing!

    Perfect for lunch before the matinee! Everyone in our party - picky child, vegan, meat and potatoes types, and adventurous eaters - was all happy.

    Carnegie Diner & Cafe was recommended by some other theatre friends from KC, & their recommendation was spot on! We all enjoyed our breakfasts, left stuffed, & with a cup of coffee to go!?!
