The Charles

If you are looking for great service, this is the place! We wanted to stay in town so we picked the Charles for a date night on a Saturday. Got there earlier than our reservation time so went to the bar to start off with drinks. Our drinks were great! I had the sangria (had 2 of them, it was that good). Chirag asked the bartender to make him something off the menu for his second drink, and the guy made something we both liked! I'm not even a whiskey person but I liked it. We ended up ordering food there too. The bread was delicious! It tasted like they just took it out of the oven. While we were having our apps, the host said they had a table ready for us but we asked to stay at the bar because they were treating us so well at the bar lol! This was our second visit. The first time we went was when the restaurant was just couple months old. We set upstairs that time. Our waiter was amazing at that time as well. I still remember how he let me try a drink first because I wasn't sure if I would like it. I will say that the chicken and dumpling entree tasted different than the first time we had it. This time it was a bit too tangy. And I can't remember if there were green beans originally. But the dumplings (gnocchi) and mushrooms were good. Very friendly group of staff and great atmosphere.

Beautiful space. A little loud but still a nice atmosphere. Food was just alright. Very heavy on some particular flavors like anise and clove. Not a place for authentic food if that's what you're expecting. A lot of sweet and savory which I'm a fan of but just not well balanced. I think it there was a lot of soft textures. Maybe not enough acid. Nothing was bad but it was mostly one note. But pretty space. Friendly staff. Slow drinks but delicious. Pickled grapes? A new favorite food.

Had a delicious lunch at The Charles today. I was celebrating my 65th birthday and the food, service and staff were excellent. I will definitely be coming back. The Limoncello Ricotta Cheesecake was amazing!

Nice homestyle food. The pasta was good, salmon was not bad, and the service was very good. Located in a cute house. Lots of local clientele. Generally recommended!
