I've been to Carlyle several times for not only personal dining but also work-related functions. Every time, the service has been great and the food is fabulous. It does get busy so it's better to make reservations especially at lunch time. |

| Carlyle is still Grand | Written by bordermom on 8/6/2009 |

I've been going to Carlyle since it was known as Carlyle Grand. The Great American Restaurants group surely knows how to put together a winning restaurant. The food is tasty, the staff is generally on-the-ball, and the ambiance is friendly and comfortable. The call-ahead service trims the wait at this always busy locale. |

| Carlyle is one of the best GAR | Written by discojing on 7/13/2009 |

Carlyle is one of my favorite Great American Restaurants. The only reason we don’t go there more often is its location and price. I’ve been here three times, and 2 out of 3 times were absolute wonderful dining experiences. Where Carlyle shines the most is at brunch, and I had the opportunity to dine there for a delicious Valentine’s Brunch recently. You’ll probably want to eat upstairs, since its a little more quite and nicer than below. I had french toast and coffee and my boyfriend had poached eggs with asparagus and steak. The good thing about Carlyle is that they are right next door to the Great American Restaurants’ bakery: Best Buns. For brunch, instead of the normal rolls, we got sugar-rolled donuts. Yummy! (In fact, everything was yummy here!) The only small bumps on the culinary journey was the fact that they second-guessed the temperature of the steak (Medium: Thats a cool red center. Is that okay?) and they did not put the hollandaise sauce on the side for the poached eggs. |

| Horrible manager | Written by lawpaps on 1/5/2009 |

I had a horrible experience with one of the managers there. Sleazy, cunning, and an absolute disgrace. I don't go there anymore. I demanded that they owe my daughter an apology, but they were in denial. |

| Favorite Among Locals | Written by wineswirl on 6/12/2008 |

Carlyle's formula is undeniable: Quality food delivered with superior service. It has a special place in the heart of locals, I'm guessing, because the menu rarely changes. What becomes a favorite is guaranteed to be there on your next visit. Not my favorite way to dine, but I understand why it works. I also don't find the cavernous ceilings & cafe-style setting particularly appealing. |
