I've been here several times over the last few months and I have to say for a small town restaurant, this place is a gem. The service is usually pretty good with friendly staff - and the food is consistently good. Â My favorites are the duck and lamb, but I've never had a bad meal here. Â If you happen to be in Greenfield, it's worth stopping in!
Review Source:This place would be awesome if it was in downtown Indy, so it's even more surprising that it's in the middle of Greenfield. Â The food was delicious. Â Just like everyone else says, the red bell pepper soup was awesome. Â The steak I got was probably the most tender and perfectly cooked steak I have ever had. Â They put ice chips in the Manhattan I got which was a pretty cool touch. Â The service was top notch and everyone was super friendly. Â I will definitely be back.
Review Source:Fine dining in Greenfield? Â The best red pepper soup I've ever had in Greenfield? Â You've got to be kidding, right? Â Nope, Carnegie's is located in the basement of a library with a fantastic craft beer menu and lots of locally sourced food. Â The servers are friendly and helpful at deciding the best dish for you. Â I also really enjoyed that the chef came out of the kitchen and knew which dishes we ordered and asked about them specifically! Â
When you come to Carnegie's you get great service and a great meal that is worth the drive. Â I highly recommend the red pepper cream soup and the duck. Â Both were fantastic and I hope to come back soon!
I went for lunch and LOVED it. I prefer any restaurant, hotel, home or other edifice that is vintage. I always choose character over brand new. The simple touches like the vintage salt and pepper shakers and the wooden spoons with numbers (rather than a red plastic upside down 'v' sign) to identify the table where food should be delivered--absolutely charming. I had the grilled vegetable sandwich and the cream of roasted red pepper soup--simply divine. If I lived in Greenfield, or if I'm ever in the area, I doubt I could be persuaded to eat anywhere else.
Review Source:Chef Ian is an unbelievable gem! Â Thanks for making Greenfield a better place!!!
The food is their strength, as it is on par with many well known executive restaurants. Â In fact, many drive in from Indy to eat at this local treasure. Â
Prices are excellent for the quality of preparation and taste. Â We have yet to order a dish that disappointed, and the service is tops! Â Jackie, our favorite, is an asset to a great place to eat.
Yes, the Cream of Roasted Red Bell Pepper soup is the best, but don't forget to leave room for their Creme Brulee! Â The best we've had anywhere! Â
The facility is not as strong as their food. Â For sometime they served a lunch upstairs (on the main floor) and the evening meal in the current dining area (more of a basement). Â We were fans of the lunch and were going broke eating there... LOL, but they've discontinued it. Â I would like to see Ian make the upstairs available during their evening meals, as I liked the atmosphere better there. Â
Try it, you'll love it!
There is this amazing high end restaurant called Carnegie's in Greenfield that I went to tonight.
What?!?!
No, Seriously. Â The food is incredible. Â It's located in the basement of the old Carnegie Library in downtown Greenfield.
And it's in Greenfield?!?!
Yeah, that's what I just said...twice. Â Chef Harrison's Cream of Roasted Red Bell Pepper soup is the dish you will hear everyone talk about. Â And for good reason, it's an outstanding soup. Â He always keeps an interesting selection of beers and wines on hand. Â I had a Unibroue 'La Fin du Monde' and I can say that's a new favorite.
Ok, but what about the main entree.
Oh man, I had the Grilled Beef Tenderloin Medallions. Â The red wine herb sauce was to die for. Â There wasn't a drop left when I was done, it got wiped up with the delicious table bread.
Sounds like you didn't have room for dessert.
You would be incorrect. Â The first word out of the waitress' mouth was, cheesecake. Â My stomach said, "noooo don't do it". Â But my brain said, "did she say covered in berries?". Â I'm a self confessed cheesecake fanatic and this one did not disappoint at all. Â It wasn't as heavy as most cheesecakes can be, it was the perfect balance. Â Oh! And there were red raspberries, black raspberries and strawberries on top! Â I'd go just for dessert.
Well, I'm convinced. Â Are they open tomorrow?
