Met 6 friends for lunch which was one more than I had made a reservation for. That was no issue for them, and they seated us immediately at a round table which we all enjoyed. My meal, pork tenderloin sandwich, was huge and good. Everyone else seemed to enjoy their food also. The lady next to me had chicken piccata and commented that she was glad she ordered it. Server was a very pleasant young lady who was attentive, but not overly so. We all enjoyed our time there.

Everything was OK except for the food, we are not ones to complain at the restaurant but we (my date and I) both ordered blackened Salmon and it was the worst we've ever had, no flavor what so ever

Gorgonzola shrimp, clam chowder with Charlie’s crusty bread, and grouper fingers were fabulous. A great meal for two.

My Charlie’s grouper was only 60% as large as normal. The grouper on my friend’s salad was overcooked, as was the salmon on my other friend’s salad. Not normal for you guys!
