The last time we were in this space, my kids and I were sitting at the soda fountain of the old HP Pharmacy. WOW!The ‘unreasonable hospitality’ of the talented Mr. Charles team in this beautiful new space made our evening truly magical! We were surprised and delighted with each course & interaction. Finally, a place that makes going out for a meal worth every penny! Now we have a tough decision to make between The Charles (our previous favorite) and Mr Charles…

Food and service were outstanding Ellie was our server and he was great the entire staff was very friendly and accommodating the wine sommelier was very knowledgeable and provided great service . The General Manager visited our table several times as well as all other tables. They prepared a special dinner for our grand daughter and had a very nice Birthday cake for my wife. The restaurant is very beautiful and very well laid out. Live jazz band was great and the in-house music was upbeat and energetic and perfect Valium level. Over all experience was outstanding definitely will be back and recommend to everyone. Great value. Five stars all the way.
