After church lunch time with family and we decided on Char. What a great choice! I had the 16oz ribeye medium rare, my wife had the grouper, my oldest had the burger and his girlfriend had the salmon. My ribeye was cooked perfectly, one of the best ribeyes I’ve ever eaten. Zero connective tissue, so tender and seasoned very well. I requested a substitute in place of a side veg, two fried eggs worked out great. Everyone was happy and full. Price was great for 4 people. Will definitely be back.
