This is the Charley's that used to be in Southpark back before all the rennovations and expansion of the mall. When they first moved to Cotswald, I was very disappointed with the food and service at the new location. However, they are now one of my regular lunchtime places. The place can get really busy at lunch and so the service can really be hit or miss. But they do many things really well, so we keep going back. First off, if you like French Onion soup with lots of cheese and puff pastry, this is the place for you! I will warn you, this stuff is addictive! I also recommend their New England Clam Chowder. They make theirs without bacon, so its one of the few places in town that I can actually enjoy the clam chowder. They have excellent salads - my favorites here are the Dave's Nutty & Spicy Chopped Salad or the Asian with Sesame Seared Tuna. The pastas are usally pretty good if you are in the mood for carbs. The only disappointments I have had were specials which either were not adequately described or the server just didn't know about. If you happen to save room for dessert, I personally love their Almond basket with Pralines & Cream ice cream and vanilla custard with raspberry & chocolate swirls.
UPDATE 2011: NOW CLOSED.
