Choo Choo, beware of other trains! We will be boarding in about 10 minutes:-))! Get your luggages,…read morekids, and all passengers! ALL ABOARD the train is about to move, so grab your seats, before you miss the train. I am so surprised that I haven't done a review on Carneys all these years that I have been going there. This place is iconic, historic, yet practical in every way. It's a burger joint that makes you feel like you are really eating in the train, but the train is not moving. I can't say enough good things about Carneys and the staff. Always helpful, kind, nice, take your order and in less than 5 minutes, you grab a seat on the train and eat whatever you have ordered. It's SO good! In every way! I was doing last minute Christmas shopping around the area and was craving some Cheeseburger and their chili fries. Let's not forget there chocolate dipped bananas. YUM! Walked in on 12/23/25 and there were like 7 people ahead of me. That line was cleared so fast that I didn't even feel like I was standing in line. Got their regular Cheeseburger with lettuce, tomato, light onions, with their Thousand Island dressing, Also got regular size chili fries and the food was sooooo gooooood!!!! They have jalapeño peppers, chili peppers, and all the other condiments that go with great hot dogs, burgers, fries and all. Place is super clean, abundant parking spaces, cute patio, and right outside of the restaurant they have 2 bathrooms. Both clean!! Good menu options to choose from! See you again very soon. Carneys and staff, you are AWESOME!!

One of the coolest spots, off the tracks!…read more Carneys is a Union Pacific railcar restaurant in Studio City as well as West Hollywood. This location is a local favorite with a smorgasbord of options including Burgers, Sandwiches, Salads, Sides, Wraps, Tacos and yes, Hot Dogs! Adding to their comfort food menu in the coolest railcar you'll ever be stationary in. Dine inside or out on their patio. Solid veggie options including a Garden Burger, Hungry Plant (Vegan) Burger, Veggie Sandwich and others. For some reason Carneys, unlike Tail O the Pup, Cupid's, Pink's, Tony's Darts Away, Dog Haus and lots of other great Hot Dog spots doesn't have a Veggie Dog option. I do love and appreciate the Hungry Planet Burger for sure, but it be nice if they introduced this. People have been asking for years. Gluten Free options available, including buns, and they do their best to cook things separately to reduce any crossover. Though I do love getting my burger Lettuce Wrapped, and they do a good job. Great service. Great prices. Clean Restrooms. Pet friendly Family friendly. Good for lunch, "linner" and "dinner," as well as takeout or delivery. Open 7 days a week from 11AM until 10PM

HiHo Cheeseburger | Studio City

3.8(333 reviews)

Ventured into Hi Ho at the height of Friday dinner time, when the whole Sportsmen's Lodge shopping…read more& dining nook was packed with people, including at least 75 kids under the age of 6. Yowza! Luckily, Hi Ho wasn't quite as busy as the pizza and ice cream shops, but there were still quite a few folks, and the staff did manage to tend to everyone nicely. If you haven't been, Hi Ho is a simple, fast food burger joint in terms of decor, but the menu (from the same people who own Matu) is a small, curated selection of very high quality options: mostly Wagyu burgers in a few different configurations, and chicken tenders + some very good, hand cut fries. This time I opted for the Pastrami Heat, a double cheeseburger fortified with spicy grilled onions and a not-too-large topper of Wagyu pastrami. I don't usually go for such an elaborate burger, but I just had a hankering. And while I won't say the burger was small, it was not as ridiculously enormous as you might get other places. The double patties were juicy and flavorful, nicely seasoned and coated in properly melted American cheese. The spicy grilled onions did pack a nice punch, but there weren't a lot of them, so their effect was minimal (definitely could use more of those). House-made pickles were pleasingly artisan, with a layered, briny flavor far more enjoyable than the commercial dill chips usually deployed. Finally, the Wagyu pastrami was really quite good. Marbled and juicy without be too fatty or too rich, thinly shaved and portioned just large enough to make its presence known without becoming unwelcome halfway through. Though decadent for sure, this was an enjoyable treat that was only about 50% guilt-inducing. Fries were fresh, hot, crispy and well done, cooked in beef tallow. Also a treat. Prices are in line with what you're paying at other fast casual burger places like Five Guys or Burger Lounge, but the quality here is definitely a step above, so you could almost say it's a deal. Of course, if you also stop into neighboring Erewhon for a smoothie, your budget will be blown.

HiHo Burgers seriously serves one of the best burgers I've ever had. Their wagyu burger is…read moreincredible and you can taste the quality immediately. It's juicy, flavorful, and somehow still simple and perfectly balanced without needing a bunch of unnecessary extras. What really says everything though is that it's kid approved. Kids can be some of the toughest food critics, and this burger passes the test every time. If a wagyu burger can impress both adults and kids, you know they're doing something right. Everything always tastes fresh and well made, and the consistency is great. It's the kind of place where you go in expecting a good burger and somehow it still manages to exceed expectations. If you're a burger lover and haven't tried HiHo yet, you're seriously missing out. Easily one of the best burger spots around.

We grabbed two breakfast sandwiches, one with bacon and one without, and both were standout in their own way. The first thing you notice? These sandwiches come out piping hot, wrapped tight and ready to go. Crack them open and you're hit with perfectly cooked eggs and an almost ridiculous amount of gooey, melted cheese. Not skimpy, not balanced, loaded in the best possible way. The Kaiser roll deserves its own shoutout: lightly toasted with just enough crunch on the outside while staying soft and pillowy inside. It holds everything together without getting soggy, even with all that cheese. * The meat version had crispy, flavorful bacon layered just right, salty, smoky, and not overdone. * The meatless one didn't feel like a compromise at all, still rich, filling, and honestly just as indulgent thanks to the cheese and eggs. No frills, no gimmicks, just classic deli breakfast sandwiches executed really well. Bottom line: If you want a hot, cheesy, perfectly toasted breakfast sandwich that actually hits the spot, Paulie's is a win. I can't wait to go back for lunch!

My dining companion had the Penne Alla Vodka which she really liked. I didn't get to try any, but if a pasta dish is the winner from a deli, well, enough said. A while back, Yelp listed this as a business to try. I'd saved this for the next time I was in Studio City. My entire feeling while heading home was "I drove all the way over here for this?!"

Let me tell you about yesterday's experience that I had in this PARTICULAR Jack In the Box! I walked in at 2:30pm and was greeted by Albert, their manager, with a nice, happy smile, wonderful energy, and wanted to take my order when I wasn't quite ready yet. After taking a minute to decide what I wanted to eat, I went with their combo #6 which came with Grilled Chicken Sandwich, either with regular fries, or seasoned curly fries & your choice of a drink. I got diet Coke from their fountain. I opted for the seasonal curly fries and also got a regular size of Grilled Chicken Teriyaki Bowl with veggies and steamed rice. Everything tasted soooo good! It exceeded my expectations. With that being said and Albert being the kindest human being & the manager, he gave me a nice, big, fat discount on my meal when I told him that it was my birthday!! Total for my order was $18.28 (including tax). All I paid was $7.08. So good, kind people still exist out there. They have extensive menu options from burgers, fries, Tacos, bowls, wraps, salads chicken tenders, shakes & sodas. Place was spotless clean, restroom was somewhat clean, drive thru,& few ample parking spaces right in the front.Open for 24 hours and I can't wait to do their survey to go claim/redeem a free item. Let me not forget to say that they also serve variety of items from their breakfast menu. A lot of to go orders, catering, and 3rd party deliveries. I hope my 5 star review will make a difference next to ALL the other negative reviews! Thank you Albert for your generosity, staff at Jack in the Box and making my birthday extra special!;-)) Keep up the GREAT WORK!!
