    We are from Michigan and dined here a few years back and loved this restaurant. We came back last night and had the same great experience. The wait staff are very attentive and timing of the food is perfect. My husband got the steak entree flight and they were all cooked perfectly. I got the fish entree flight and they were all great but loved the red fish the best. It’s a fun quality experience with great service food and drinks

    I went there today (Wednesday) for the express purpose of enjoying the Daily Special: Short Ribs. One of my favs at Char. As always, delicious and enough beef to carry some home. I had to have my favorite dessert there….pecan pie. Large piece served warm with vanilla ice cream. Perfect lunch coupled with good service. My friend also ordered the Short Ribs….her first time to have this dish, and she was pleased.
