| - I can't say enough good things about this restaurant. I can only come to Charlestons when I'm traveling and after a year I'm back. I have been here a week and been to Charlestons for dinner twice and lunch once. You can't beat this restaurant for: fresh, great tasting food, preparation and quality for the money. I don't mind paying money, but it needs to be worth it. When I've had a long day of working and I need a meal that will be fresh, taste great and I won't be disappointed, I come the Charlestons and they never disappoint. I usually do curbside and the service is impeccable. Nice, friendly staff that put your food in the backseat and actually seem to like their jobs. Today was lunch and I went out on a limb and ordered a new item. Ceasar Salmon salad. Delish. Look at the pic. Comes with that beautiful honey drizzled croissant and the greens are actually GREEN and there are a lot of them. Real Parmesan cheese shreds (not that horrible can powder), fresh firm tomato and crisp red onion and cucumber. Don't get me started on the scallion dressing! The salmon was also great; tender, moist with a beautiful char. Just opening the container at work and the picture is a feast for the senses. This is what good food looks and even better tastes like. In a time when so many restaurants are all hype and no substance and they seem to do nothing more than take your money and you feel robbed from the experience, Charlestons after 10 years has maintained and continually exceeds my expectations. I don't like to think I'm picky, but I do expect that when I pay my money, the effort expended by the retailer should be evident. Go, eat, enjoy. You won't be disappointed. By the way, my fav item: Catfish with French fries and broccoli or glazed carrots. The side salad with the garlic dressing is bomb as well.
