Carney's Restaurant

Probably the best hamburgers & hot dogs...in the world!

  • Onboard a train car
  • Family-owned
  • Original hot dog recipe

Casual eatery Carney's on Sunset Boulevard is a family-owned, casual burger joint occupying an Amtrak passenger car from the 1920s. Its mouth-watering menu features dishes including burgers, hot dogs, sandwiches, wraps, fries and salads. Delivery is available until 4:30pm with an $8 minimum.

Editorial Review for Carney's Restaurant – by Shelley Stein

In Short
This casual SoCal burger joint inhabits a bright yellow Amtrak passenger car from the 1920s, and its white- and red-paneled walls sport old framed black-and-whites documenting its disco-era construction. T-shirted tourists and local die-hards order at the counter and grab napkins from a bathroom towel dispenser at the end of the line. Trademark burgers and hot dogs are served in cardboard boxes, often drenched in chili and accompanied by bottled beer or lemonade in a paper cup.

I'm a huge fan of the turkey burger at Carney's - it's very very good. Not 'gournet' good...just plain tasty. It takes about 10 minutes to cook - always a good sign - meaning they prepare it fresh. Thumbs up.

The hot dogs were tasteless and when I asked for ketchup instead of mustard, I was made to feel like I was a freak.

Pros: Clean eating area

Cons: Don't ask for anything special.
