"Mixed Feelings about Char. Below are some positives and negatives. Positives- Taste of appetizers and dinner were good. Plenty of options. The specialty cocktails were also nice and they have wide variety of options for drinks. Negatives- Although the taste of the food was good the temperature was inconsistent. Some items were way too hot and others too cold. Next, we waited a long time for our appetizers. We had two drinks each before they even came out. This is a loud place. Please note it was a Friday. We were fine with it but if you are looking for a quiet meal this isn’t for you. In terms of service they had about five women standing behind a desk when you go to check in. When I provided my name the young woman just repeated it back, didn’t look at me or provide any direction. One of the other ladies took the initiative and walked me upstairs to my table. The table was in a room with a good amount of open seats but we were sat a foot away to a couple that also looked surprised at that decision. The couple even joked that since we were so close we could join them for dinner. Our server was friendly but it just felt like we were being upsold on items when we had already ordered three apps between two people. Lastly, our lamb app was medium-well when we asked for medium rare and only one of our steaks came out cooked to our preference. The other was over cooked. The lobster ravioli app was cold and the escargot was scorching hot. For almost a $400 dollar meal I would have liked more consistency. Tipped over 20% With all this being said I would still go back. The steak that was cooked right tasted great. The apps although inconsistent in temp were very tasty. Looks wise it is a nice place to take a date. The server was a nice guy. It felt like I was being upsold or he actually thought the portion size of the filet and lobster tail wouldn’t be large enough. Unfortunately, because the apps took so long we didn’t have time to try the dessert. Overall 7/10"
