                          The lighting and atmosphere was great for a quiet evening out for dinner. The food was excellent and the wait staff was fantastic. Amazing service and a great selection from both the food and drink menu. Very happy with our fancy night out and will definitely be planning on returning again soon.

                          Delicious French Toast, the bread alone is so rich and creamy to say the least of all the filling and toppings...yum!

                          The only downside to our experience is that we had 8:30 reservations but did not get seated until 9:30. It was 22/31 though so keep that in mind. Great food.

                          New Years Eve at the Charmant was a wonderful experience. Beautiful setting with the Rotary Christmas lights outside the windows; the food was outstanding, wine pairing was excellent, service was terrific, top drawer. In fact, I thought we were at a very sophisticated dining room in Chicago or Minneapolis. The sommelier was kept hoping, and described each of the wines for each of the five courses. very knowledgeable. It was just a perfect dining experience.

                          Christmas brunch was both tasty and tasteful. That said, the menu seemed no different from any other weekend brunch. Decor was muted. There was nothing festive about this holiday special event.
