    I recently went on a limited diet including ingredients and they went well out of their way to satisfy my needs. The service was fantastic and we greatly appreciated their willingness to accommodate a narrow diet.

    Entire party enjoyed their fish entrees, all different and presented beautifully. The Crème Brûlée tasting was a perfect end for the evening. Definitely recommend.

    Understaffed. Drinks took too long. Entrees were mixed up. Been there many times but this was an extremely disappointing experience

    One word, Jose. The chart house has great food, ambience and views of course. It's the people you interact with that take the experience to the next level For our experience, Jose made all the difference. Please give that young man some recognition, he is the the kind of person you want representing your brand.

    We were initially seated on the lawn, which I was not prepared for. It was too cold. The hostess then seated us at the worst table in the lounge (on the aisle where the waitstaff traverse). Overall, the staff seem poorly trained: they didn’t take the menus after we ordered, they forgot to replace flatware, they served one diner’s entree and not the other. The Caesar salad was soggy, the food expediter slammed down plates on a very small two-top without removing empty plates. It was a stressful experience that lacked any kind of elegance or graciousness. The mudpie was good.

    Made a reservation days prior at this lovely Chart House restaurant for a 3rd anniversary. In addition, I made a special request and the staff not only completed on said request, but also made the overall dining experience very memorable. Hence, I’m thankful for such an amazing experience and would highly recommend!

    We had my birthday dinner at Chart House and it was amazing. The food was excellent. The view was lovely. Natasha our server was great. The house margarita was so refreshing. The Mahi Mahi was great. The service was a little rushed. We would have liked to enjoy our drinks, appetizer, etc a little more. Everything came out pretty fast. We started and finished our entire meal in about 45 minutes... (from our drinks to our appetizer, mains, & dessert), next time I would wait a little longer before ordering each item. Other than that small tiny thing, we had an amazing time at Chart House. I can't wait to come back!
