We absolutely love this local spot. The owner is warm and remembers us. The food is mouth-wateringly outstanding! The service is excellent, as well. Besides, this little joint is ranked nationally for their remarkable tacos!

The steak was delicious. Everything else was mediocre. My buddy and I both said that we'd rather eat food truck mexican. Sides are tiny. For 25+ bucks a person you can do so much better.

Parking: The parking is a little tight. I guess it depends on when I arrived. I did arrive around 130pm.

Bone marrow plate was insane. Really good tacos too. Shrimp was my favorite.

First Time Visit…. Very small eatery, LOTs of take out orders and pick up orders….everyone seated was aware of the limited space, so we were patient, and quickly took a table as people left.
The FOOD was the reason people were there. Fantastic Quality, and we were blown away. Charred marinated steak chunks served over grilled sliced (squash ?) veggies. Side was a ball of seasoned rice, and topped with a swirl of mildly spicy sauce. Came with blackened tortillas , individually wrapped , so you could make several small burritos, or use them to wipe your plate clean, which we did with Gusto. This eatery deserves five stars because of the simplicity and superb flavors of the food. Well Done, Char ..

I have no idea where most of these people are getting their 5 star ratings from. The food is very mid and extremely overpriced. For a group of 3 our total was $130. Very small place with little to no atmosphere at all while also being unsanitary. Staff was friendly, but seemed unprofessional as they were watching boxing fights on their phone while taking our order. Would not recommend this place to anyone at all.

This place has some of the best food I have had in so long. Everything was fresh and the flavors really complimented each other. The staff were really friendly and came by to check on us and say hello. Ever since I had their adult bulldog bowl with steak I haven’t stopped thinking about it. 10/10

Everything tasted great and I credit this place for being unique, but the value proposition may not beat your local street stand.

Wow! Great food! Great service. Loved it!

Vegetarian options: Had the taco salad without meat. The beans have meat in them, they offered that info, and we're willing to remove them.

This place is so good when I was eating my tacos I couldn’t remember the name of my previous favorite taco stand. It was Chandos. Char Market has my heart now. Nothing fancy about the place or location. Just great food. If great food is your vibe, go here!!!
