★★★★★ 5.0 Rachael Brager · Sep 2025

The food was amazing! We had the crab dip, chicken parm, a burger, and the Ahi Tuna stack! There was a band and it was a fun vibe outside. Corey made space for us on the deck. Our waitress was busy but still attentive I think her name was Carmen. Loud when the band played(if you have sensory concerns). There was a cute little mini golf course we played on afterwards.

Great atmosphere. Family friendly..Food on the pricey side. They have a basketball court that faced the tables and I witnessed the ball hitting a person's table 3 different times. Maybe move the court to the other grass area away from the tables. Otherwise wonderful time and place. Would recommend!

Dewar General Contracting chose Charly’s for our annual Christmas party because of the great location, parking, festive atmosphere, variety of food options, and service! We worked with Jason to organize the event for nearly 20 people and Corey’s execution was seamless! Our team truly enjoyed the evening complete with special seasonal drinks and dedicated staff. We highly recommend visiting!

Charly's was a wonderful place and easily accessible by vehicle or boat, depending on the size of the boat. You won't be disappointed whether you choose to eat inside or outside because there was plenty of seating for both. We chose the outdoor bar seating area. The live music created a chill environment. There is a variety of food choices on the menu. The fish tacos were mouth watering and the burgers were very tasty. The pepperoni pizza was freshly made. As the servers walked past me with trays filled with other people's orders of colorful, aromatic, deliciously looking food, I was astonished and confused about what to order. I wanted it all!!! The prices are reasonable and this is a family, pet-friendly environment. The bar area gives you a sports bar-like vibe and the bartenders were

★★★★★ 5.0 Mimi Schleicher · Jul 2025

Great spot to hang out with friends—fun atmosphere and good vibes. A few flies were around and it’s quite annoying since the indoor and outdoor areas are connected today. Our server was awesome! Food was bad. It was alright 7/10.
