    Every visit at Char has been pleasant, filling and the service is always top notch. This visit was for lunch with my mom and we enjoyed the Char burger with onion rings (subbed for fries) and we also ordered the crab claws (sautéed and fried). The sautéed crab claws had a good flavor/seasoning as well as the fried claws. The sautéed had a kick, so if you are not a fan of spice, you will be fine with the fried claws. I would not order the crab claws again, they were good, but not my favorite appetizer. The restaurant has lunch specials during the week and they also have happy hour and brunch on weekends, so plenty of opportunities to visit.

    First time here and it's a gem. McEwen's has a beautiful bar area with vintage brick and wood. We loved sitting at one of the high tops there. The cocktail menu was extensive and featured many drinks that are either classics or well-balanced. This is usually a sign that the bar staff know what they’re doing and McEwen‘s did not disappoint. The waitstaff were extremely attentive, the food was excellent, and overall we had a perfect experience for my birthday dinner.
