The Charles Restaurant & Bar in Southern Maryland is a local gem offering delicious meals with unique flavors. The staff is amazing, and the restaurant provides a mix of fine dining in a casual atmosphere, with creative twists on classic dishes. The food is delicious and the service is great. The braised short ribs are tender and flavorful, and the soup is rich and creamy. The jazz band is excellent. The bartender Charlie receives high praise for making perfect drinks.

Overall, The Charles remains a favorite spot for quality food without the need to travel far, maintaining flavor and generous portions that keep customers coming back.
