If you are not interested in the best tasting food but would like to be entertained and possibly get drunk while eating lunch or dinner this is the place to be. They have great guacamole and chicken quesadillas but besides that the food isn't the best. But the staff will get you engaged and have you dancing on your table... More

The food was good. I would definitely recommend purchasing the hand mashed guacamole (table side).

Food is pretty good! But the entertainment provided by the staff (&customers) makes it fun. Not a place for you though if you are too shy/reserved and don't want to have some fun.

Dont let the fun/silly at times atmosphere fool you, the food is seriously good and so its the service and attention we got. Charlie's Taco and Charlies Burrito were good enough we went back a second time; the Tortilla Soup is very good too as was the guacamole made at table side. The only complaint is that the Mother Margarita... More

Service was very slow and they weren't even busy. Chips were stale and when we told the manager he didn't believe us until he pulled one out and ate it. Then he said sorry and brought us some fresh ones. We only drank water because we had been walking all day and it took forever to get a refill.

We've visited Carlos and Charlie's in other cities but this was a POOR experience. To start if you're attractive expect to be groaped and touched without being asked. I'm a blond with a half sleeve (tattoos) and half my back also has ink. Immediately a waiter comes up with a flashlight and starts moving myntanktop off my shoulder to see... More
