    My family and I were excited to experience Carnegie Diner in Seacaucus after having such a great experience at the location across from Carnegie Hall. We made a reservation, so we were seated right away. Behind the wall where we sat must have been the restroom, or a work area, because there was const loud banging throughout our time there. That was not pleasant. The young lady who served as our waitress was very lack luster. She was not at all friendly. Not sure if it was a language barrier, but she showed no enthusiasm. I asked for my eggs to be fried hard, and the were terribly runny. The waitress never came back to check on us, so I couldn’t ask her to redo the eggs because the rest of my food would have been ice cold before I saw her again. In the meantime several people came to check on the table behind, but NO ONE checked on us. Finally at the end of our meal, the young lady who was serving the table behind us saw that we were being neglected and she apologized and went to find our server. When she came to the table to give us the check and saw my 3 runny eggs still sitting there, I told her that I had ordered them fried over hard and that the order was wrong and she made no apology she just gave us the check and proceeded to tell us how we could add a tip for her. It was a bad experience. And we were so disappointed.

    My husband and I eat breakfast at Carnegie all the time and the food is typically excellent. My friend was visiting and we decided to give her the NY experience but in NJ at our favorite place... Bad idea. We waited 1 hour for our food - Simple sandwiches. The food was not good. I had a grilled cheese that's the easiest thing to make that was horrible... we were told that this was because there was a party of 30 but your other clients should never suffer because of one group. Ease their food over time. I'm sure they would have understood with such a large party. You may never see them again. Repeats are important too. This absolutely changed my mind about our favorite breakfast/ lunch place.

    This was our first time here. the diner is very grand, plenty of seating both in and outdoors. The decor was nice. Our waitress was very pleasant and attentive . The food took a while to come out and they weren’t super busy. The portions were huge and the food was tasty. The only complaint I have was the bathrooms they were absolutely filthy . I heard several people talking about them as well.
