Updating: 3 to a 5. Newish bartender, handled the Sunday noon (11/2) crowd like a champ. Complete professional, exactly what we need as patrons, customer service. Nice dude and I will be going back because of the service upgrade. Thank you sir.

Beautiful patio view but limited choices on the menu if not vegan. The Drunken Garlic Shrimp was delicious and recommended by the server (who was awesome)!! Sadly there was only one server for all the guests during a busy lunch and finally the bartender came out (since the bar was completely empty) to help. The manager stood on the side watching the chaos doing nothing. The table next to us was ready to check out and asked the manager for assistance but she said they would have to wait for the server. We did the same but I told the manager I have somewhere to be and to assist us now please. Odd a manager can’t even assist with closing the checks. Otherwise cute patio and good food. Management- 1/10

When I was preg with my first born, nothing set well with me, unless I was at Charlies. No matter what I ate at Charlies, my soon to be born was content.
For myself, the burgers were cooked to perfection. The fries the same. The atmosphere was expected to old school. It was a haunt that welcomed me and mine anytime I crossed their threshold. Perfect.

Have an amazing underground bar. The atmosphere was awesome. Obviously during the winter going to be most likely closed down. But in any other time it should be good. Autumn spring summer. And also the chicken tenders buffalo style out of this world

Visiting the area and popped in for lunch. Part diner, part bar, all excellent! Friendly staff (thanks Anish!), atmosphere is a bit 50's diner with modern music playing. Not too loud, but enough to get your foot tapping.

Ordered the turkey club. The bread to turkey to avocado to tomato to lettuce ratio was perfectly balanced. Bread nicely toasted. Avocado added a wonderful creamy textual element. Everything came together to create an amazingly juicy bite.

Their famous double cheeseburger is brilliant. Famous for a reason. Two perfectly cooked patties with cheese. Thick tomato slice, pickle and lettuce. It is juicy, balanced with flavors and textures.

I did order a side of chili and added it to the burger (in bites) and I will say that this version with a little yellow mustard was my favorite bite. Reminds me of Tommy's back in Los Angeles. Simply amazing.

Fries were also a nice accompaniment. Added chili to them also and they were great both ways.

100% would come back. This place is a yes!

We, party of 4, were there Sunday for dinner. The service is really good from the host to the servers! And during our dinner came to the table a gentleman approached our table just asking if everything was fine, we assumed he was the manager.
The food was good! Sundays they have a “One dollar oyster 🦪 special” the oysters are those little ones… but for a dollar it’s worth it.
Two of us got the Salmon Pesto with broccoli and rice,I was expecting more pesto, the salmon was a little over cooked and it was more just like a piece of salmon with broccoli.
The rice was dry. Our other two friends got Burgers, one of them got a regular burger and the other one got a double cheese burger, both of them were good. Drinks are ok and prices are very reasonable! I Recommend It.

Food was Ok, but the quantity and size are small, and the service was not good! The table and chairs are not comfy! The waitress has no idea about the food they serve and hard to find. They charge 18% gratuity by default but don’t tell you and requested further tip.
