I’ve been to this place a couple times and the food is good but both times I was coming in for lunch but the lunch menu wasn’t being served. First time only small plates were available and the second time only brunch. Can y’all please add hours to your menus online so I know when you’re serving each menu? The food was tasty both times I visited but I had a craving for specific dishes I couldn’t order because I had looked at the menu online beforehand. Kind of baffled why a lunch menu wouldn’t be available at 12:30 pm on a Saturday.

We were disappointed by this restaurant. The water tasted of dirt, just like another reviewer had mentioned. We ordered salads with chicken- the bib lettuce and Caesar salads. The chicken was blackened and not grilled, which some in our party did not enjoy. They also didn't have the spiced walnuts in the bib salad, which was a key feature. So overall, just disappointed for what the restaurant is trying to be and the price point.

Very nice place and ambiance, however the food was not good. The focaccia came out burnt, the burger was very fatty and the fries that came with it were cooked in oil that was probably not hot enough so they were tasting weird, steak was ok but portion very small and mushrooms on top tasted funny. The gnocchi short rib were such a small plate and lack flavor. The apple crumble was good. The water they broad tasted like plants/dirt water - very bizarre. The waitress though was very nice and the place elegant but at the same time easy going. I hope they will improve the food soon, it would be a pity otherwise… prices are also a bit too high for what you get.

Linguine with clams, roasted chicken and Brown rice bowl were all fantastic. Especially the brown rice ball had a kick of Kimchi taste and it was pretty good!

We ate dinner, breakfast, and lunch at Dear Charles and the food was very delicious all three times. We ordered dinner ~30min before closing and weren’t given any bad look for ordering dessert too. They have the right amount of options and variety for a reasonable price.

great happy hour 3-6pm deals, I highly recommend the calamari and oysters but don’t come here for a meal :( Ordered the burger and it came out so uncooked in the center with stale and over salted fries?

Friendly, good service. Caesar salad was too bland but a good size and fresh. Chocolate mousse was odd and didn’t have good presentation. Good list of appetizers.
New, clean and well laid out, Dear Charles is a comfortable place for food, drink or escape.Attached to hotel, the Study at Johns Hopkins and right in front of the college entrance.Highly recommend.

Surprised despite the rating. Hotel nice and good location but restaurant lacking. My husband ordered the grilled chicken sandwich as recommended by the server and got a dried out turkey club. My salad had lettuce and cabbage nothing else with bottled dressing and my daughter ordered the vegetable platter and there was an unidentifiable object in there. One of the worst lunches I ever had
