Carlos Ocharlies - a plate of appetizers and dips - Sports Bars Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

My partner and I had seen this place when we first moved in and for some reason got very curious about it. We vowed that once we were vaccinated it would be the first place we ate at in person, and though we didn't have very high expectations, we were blown away! The bartender was incredibly friendly and made us a couple of margs. We ordered the Plato Tipico as well as some sort of shrimp in creamy sauce. Both were off the salvadoran portion of the menu, and both were unbelievably good. The portions were big enough for both of us to bring home seconds for later (that we ended up devouring only a few hours after getting home) and both had a great amount of variety in what was on the plate. Best Mexican/Salvadoran food in Baltimore by far, and top 5 that we have ever had in general. Cannot wait to return read more

The Plato tipico... Salvadorian treats harmonizing perfectly on a platter! I have cone here for 3 years and always get the bistec mexicano or the cajun chkn n shrimp pasta which are both 5 out of 5 (tho the pasta is a bit greasy). I branched out n got the plato tipico which had some steak, beans, a pork n cheese pupusa, corn tamale, plantains, and maybe rice. Everything was cooked to perfection. Everything bursting with flavor. My bf told me he had never heard me moan so much eating a meal. If i had to choose a last meal on earth this just might be it! Hands down orgasmic food lol read more

Carlos Ocharlies - Sorry, dug in and had to stop to snap a shot of the glory. Plato Tipico - Sports Bars Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

ambiance is dry AF. it's dark and the music is super loud you can't even hear the 4 television that are all showing the same channel at the bar. bartender was also not very customer centric. I haven't had the food but I got full with just the amount of dryness this place has. they have a "happy hour" from 4-7pm that when asked about they say they don't have any specials haha. so thats that..all in all, I don't think it's the best place to come and sit for lunch or dinner..take out might be good..as far as dine-in ..AVOID AVOID AVOID read more

I order chicken tacos. They are the authentic taco so they do not come with lettuce and tomatoes, which was okay with me. They tasty very flavorful! read more

I came here for a company meeting. I had never heard of this place so I had no expectations, but I was pleasantly surprised by the food. We had an open bar (no more needs to be said about that :) Our menu consisted of Caesar salad, salmon, pasta with shrimp, chicken, and veggies, rice, and steak. Everything was perfectly seasoned. The salmon (which is easily overcooked) was expertly baked in a savory butter sauce. The steak was marinated and cooked medium-medium well and the pasta was creamy, but different from Alfredo and it kept well (I took some leftovers and ate them a couple days later). All in all great experience! The space is large so if you're looking for somewhere to hold an event this place is a great option. Plus the parking is free after 6! read more

Awesome food and the Service was fantastic and the owner was very pleasant. Great place read more

If i could give this place Zero Stars i would. I used to come here with friends & family & it was great, but i recently took my family here telling them how great i thought they were just to be disappointed. First the waitress asked for ID but seemed like she didn't know what year to start counting from so she asked for our age anyways, Then our alcoholic drinks were Hot. After we ordered our food i had to get up probably around 5 times and walk towards her to ask for things because she wouldn't come around to check on us btw we were her only table because place was empty she was on her phone & last but not least Food was TERRIBLE i asked my Steak & it was BURNT when i told her about it she brushed it off, then when the bill came around i said i wouldn't pay for it because i only had one bite & i could taste burnt meat! She said it was well done which it wasn't it was BURNT after going back & forth about it she took it out of my bill, but still i will NEVER be coming back to this place or recommending any of my friends anymore. Carlos OCharlies needs to do better with Staff!!! BTW Gratuity was included in check almost $20 and tbh she did NOT deserve that tip at all! read more

Carlos Ocharlies - Burnt Meat!! - Sports Bars Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

First! OK, So I was in the neighborhood on foot last Sunday and need to get some dinner before I went grocery shopping otherwise I'd come home with Snickers ice cream bars and a whole cooked chicken. I hear this is a good place to watch an O's game. Maybe in the spring that will be something to do. Carlos O'Charlies is a mix of Salvadorean, Mexican and American food. The bar is a decent size and beers are modestly priced. I really wanted a burger but I figured this place probably didn't specialize in gringo food even though they had it on the menu. What the hell. Ordered up a Charlie Burger and a pork pupussa. Burger was ok. Nothing to cause for a repeat in the future though. Pupussa was big and cheap $2 for a nice size pupussa that wasn't too greasy. The place was a bit slow and I was the only pale face in the house but service was nice if slow. I'd come here again to do some more exploring because it's close but It's not a place I will rave about right now. I could be surprised in the future though. read more

Carlos Ocharlies - the front of a restaurant - Sports Bars Near Me - Baltimore, Maryland

I ventured into this place as a part of the Morgan State Homecoming activities. I got a couple of white wines. I used my Visa to pay for it. I woke up the next morning at 9:45 am with my phone ringing off the hook. It was Visa fraud prevention. The person on the line was asking me if I'd used my credit card at the Detroit Red Wings store...or if I was trying to check into a Trump property in Joliet Illinois. Um...no. I am in Baltimore. Now I am not saying the purchase of the white wine via credit card at Carlos O'charlies is connected to the telephone call. But it is the only place I used my Visa that weekend. Only used it because they do not take AmEx. read more

The weirdest 3* review... because what is this place? They've got a crazy menu filled with lots of varying items from general bar fare to some extreme South American entrees. And I have to say.. the food was great. Tried a specialty dish from a S.A. country I dont remember, but it was very nice. Others ordered general fare and were satisfied as well. This place is nothing special, inside or out. Pretty run down all around. We weren't informed until after our meal and given our cards that their CC machine was down. Pending charges on all of our cards, but eventually all disappeared. Short version: Go for the food, bring cash, read more

Don't judge this spot because how it look from outside which is exactly what I did at first shame on me!!! We came here last Friday with some friends to Baltimore to the stadium to see the game but first we wanna to eat and drink so we enter this place the food was yummy seriously it was really good we try the Charlie's platter to share it was so good that we got 3... The service was very good and attentive even kwon our waiters speak little English but she was really kind and caring. I will recommends this place I'm definitely coming back. read more

Great place I love there pasta also the service is very quick even tho they don't all speak English they get someone to help you fast wonderful food. There Steak is also tender to the bite. And there flavors are on point read more

Talk about a diamond in the rough! Let me start off by saying we went here as a joke and wanted to hit up a dive, but once we parked and walked in our opinion immediately changed. The restaurant is very large and has a nice bar, pool tables and some eclectic table/chair setups. Unfortunately the draft beer was completely out but it's okay because we went traditional and got some Pacificos. We started off with an order of flautas which was nothing short of amazing. My main dish was the plato tipico which was cooked perfectly. The plantains and corn tamale was a nice addition to the plate and I could not have been happier with my meal...all for $12. The location is a bit dicey and really discredits the quality of the food. We met Carlos the owner when he came table to table to check on his guests. I will definitely go back! read more

For years hands down one of the best places to eat and have drinks great atmosphere and food friendly staff

Food was rather decent. Service however was not. Impression I got from waitress/bartender made it seem like I wasn't wanted there, maybe because i'm a white guy. No worries lady, I won't be back. read more

I came here on a Friday afternoon for some Margaritas (we were the only people here so i thought they were closed) well the margaritas were just sweet and sour mix with ice, they must if forgotten the main ingredient... I ordered quesadillas which were good, they added lots of cheese! The waitress forgot about us, I had to get up to look for her in order to order a different drink and to get my check. Not sure if. I want to give this place a second chance. Margaritas thumbs down, service thumbs down, quesadillas thumbs up hmm... read more

We wandered in here after the Ravens game and it was suprisingly empty. There was a group of people in the back singing karaoke but other than that there was only a few other people in the bar. Not sure if that's promising for a "sports" bar or not. Anyways, the bartender was friendly. We we kinda hungry so we ordered a burrito spicy. It took a bit of time to come out but we were in no rush so we didn't mind. The burrito was huge and covered in a SPICY red sauce. It was awesome. The rice that came with it was meh. Wouldn't mind going back on a crappy rainy day to watch an O's game. read more

Ive been to this restaurant a couple times and the food is always amazing! Plus fast and friendly service. I usually get the carne asada omg soooo good!! read more
