Made a 45-50 min. drive just to eat at Charley's. Expecting a wait on a Friday night, we phoned in a reservation and had a table waiting when we arrived. Food was excellent, the best tenderloin I've ever had. Staff is always friendly, waitresses are excellent. Our only drawback was being at a table next to kitchen. Very crowded and I felt like I was blocking the aisle for waitresses. Probably because of a large party next to us with tables put together. I've always been pleased with Grindstone's and will heartily recommend i... read more

This place accommodated a party of 16 for my Mom's birthday. They were fast, friendly and on top of everything. We had great food (prime rib & tenderloins) and really enjoyed ourselves. Think this will be our new favorite place.

My main complaint is that the two people who ordered sirloin steak , one medium well and one well done had a lot of gristle in the meat. My husband mentioned it to the waitress, but she did... read more

It was very cold in the restaurant. Fan was blowing on us. The baked potato was cold and that wasn’t the first time we got a cold potato.

Made my reservation on opentable thinking it was a nice restaurant, upon entering it smelled old and I felt from the moment we entered, another day, another customer whoop dee doo. No happy you’re here, just “what can I get you?” Two of the four of us didn’t eat half their meals. For the review stars, not sure this restaurant deserves 4 stars overall. Maybe you need to be known as a local in order for them to care.
