I don't write too many reviews. Only those that standout one way or the other. We were in neighboring Gilbert to visit and looked at places on Yelp to go to dinner and found nthis place. It was a Friday night and graduation weekend. We were a party of 4. When we walked in, we were greeted and asked if we had a reservation which we did not. The host spoke out 55 which we thought was going to be the wait. He was actually speaking to another worker to seat us at table 55. we were promptly seated. We were soon greeted by our server, Tochi, who too our drink order and told us of specials they had. When she returned, she had our beverages and took our order that had a couple of tweeks to it. While we were waiting, Tochi came by to check on us. Soon our order arrived and was spot on as ordered. One order was split between the wives and they had it already dished as a split. Everything we asked for originally was there. Food was pretty good. Ribs were truly fall off the bone and tender. Beans that came with ribs was very good, I could have eaten a big bowl of those. Soup and salad was good as well. Thing that made this a wonderful experience was the service. Tochi was incredible. She was attentive, polite, prompt, everything you could ask for. I will definitely return. If you go, ask for Tochi to be your server. I looked for manager to leave a positive comment on our departure but couldn't locate one so left it with host. read more

Dynamite shrimp was amazing! Loaded baked potato soup, superb! Mira, our server, was absolutely fabulous. Ambiance at Charleston is great, as always. Plus we get to rideshare for less than $10 lol. All in all, a wonderful experience, will be back! read more

The food was amazing. The service was exceptional. I love the low lighting and beautiful music.

Excellent! This is our favorite restaurants. We continue to back, and take our clients and friends.

My beautiful Mother passed and Shelby, the manager, let our family host a celebration of life. She was 94 and 8 months, and had a good life so no crying, just good memories, appetizers, flowers and wine. Our servers Quinn and Alisa were excellent and met our every need as well as the hostess. We were untraditional, but it worked for us and everyone left with a smile. Thank you Shelby, Quinn, and Alisa for taking such good care of our party at this sensitive time. read more

First mention is the great atmosphere, second are the BBQ baby back ribs or Ribeye steaks. Perfect place for family gatherings, groups. Service is top tier. You can go wrong here. read more

This place is located on the East side of Stapley (Cooper) just South of US-60. The sandwiches were very good and good size (see photo). Still it was just a little pricey for what you get. $20 is a little steep in my opinion. read more

Wow, I went here for the first time yesterday and I was impressed across the board. My wife is from this area and said she loved this place when she grew up here and wanted to go back. This trip down memory lane for her ended up being the highlight of my day. My wife got the roasted chicken, her favorite from before, it was really good and I wouldn't have minded getting that myself. However, the waitress pulled some strings and so I could get a fried chicken and Rib combo (I was torn on which one to get) and it was amazing! The flavor of the breading on the fried chicken was good but the breading was a little thick. Which that being said, the gravy was 10/10 good so I barely noticed. The ribs were amazing, I've had better sauce but it was still good and the quality of the meat was exceptional (rare these days). Also, the service and inside the restaurant was 10/10. Over all, I'd go back today if I could. This place is 100% going to be added to our rotation read more

Charlestons is always top on my list for excellence in all categories. Food is great, never had a bad meal there. Ambiance is good so this restaurant is especially good for special occasions read more

Service was excellent! Food was good. Pricing was horrible. I opted for the pork chops that come with a potato and baked beans for an unrealistic price of $34. If I wanted a side salad it would have been an additional $10. Seriously?? Several options for a side but no side salad without paying $10. Won't be returning when I could have gone to Texas Roadhouse and had food just as good with salad for a lot less! read more

Great food. Best catfish in the valley! Have had burgers, ribs, steak & trout, all GREAT!

The service is always top notch. We were greeted immediately when we came in and were taken to our table. Lucas was our service and he was incredible. Very polite and professional. The prime rib was awesome as usual. The place is always clean and professional. read more

We've been loyal guests of Charleston's in Mesa for over six years and have been dining at Charleston's locations since the Ray Road & I-10 days back in 2008-2009. This restaurant has been our favorite Sunday spot for years - but mainly because of one person: James. James has been the heart of our experience here. He's the only reason we've continued coming back week after week. We always asked to be seated in his section, and more than once, we've waited over 45 minutes just to make sure we could enjoy dinner with him as our server. That's how much of a difference he made. Unfortunately, we were shocked and deeply disappointed to learn that James was let go. Without him, Charleston's just isn't the same. We're heartbroken -not just for ourselves as long-time guests, but for the team that lost someone who truly understood service and built real relationships with his guests. We'll be keeping an eye out for where James goes next, because wherever he ends up, that's where we'll be dining. Until then, it's goodbye to what used to be our favorite place. Best of luck, James - you've got fans for life. And Charleston's? You just lost one. read more

We were here for my daughter's birthday earlier in April. Everything was delicious. Service was on point. Will definitely return.

Food was great. Had awesome cocktails. Service very good. Ambiance like a supper club. We will be back.

Charleston's never disappoints. They know how to cook a steak and that key lime pie, mmmm. And they know how to make a great old-fashioned.

Met friends for lunch. We were seated almost immediately. Service was attentive but not intrusive. Food came out at a nice temperature and tasted great. We ordered several different dishes and appetizers and everything was quite good. Room where we were seated was a little dark (think speakeasy style) but the booth comfortably fit eight. read more

It's been a few years since I've been here because of the pandemic! However, the shrimp cargot is still just as good as I remember! My arteries were probably hardening as I ate it, but I didn't care! It was awesome! I'll have a conversation with my cardiologist later but it was worth it! The catfish wasn't bad! I can't put my finger on what turned me off but I probably won't order it again. I had to douse it in hot sauce to give it flavor! Perhaps that was it! The service was outstanding! I sat at the bar and the young lady who waited on me was phenomenal!! I'll be back but not for the catfish! read more

Charleston Have eaten at Charleston in Scottsdale many years ago and since then the restaurant is closed up. It was my son's birthday and he chose Charleston so we said okay with no expectations. Went to dinner at 6 pm and was so busy and packed, a lot older retirement crowd, but that is ok, they always know where the best is for the money, right? Cream Spinach Artichoke Dip was delicious, would say very comparable if not equal to our favorite at Houston's. Great tasting and prepared just right. Highly recommend. Dynamite Shrimp was so good, I would highly recommend this appetizer. Just perfect and delicious Salad accompanied the entree and came with a soft delicious croissant. Solid salad and refreshing. Prime Rib with seasonal vegetables was the 14 oz cut and seemed very generous. What a pleasant experience, no expectations but a wonderful slab of meat. Just excellent! Famous French Dip meat was a little dry even when submerged in au jus. Not as famous in others kind. Overall service was excellent and what a pleasant surprise from what I remember years ago. Great experience! read more

First time at Charlestons, celebrating a birthday. Not sure what was better...the service or the food. Both were excellent! 3 of our table had filet mignon-grilled perfectly, with loaded potatoes and spicy brussel sprouts. One had the shrimp scampi and loved it. The staff is very attentive and works seamlessly together. I think our water glasses were topped up 4 times! We had a lovely evening and would highly recommend Charleston's. read more

This has been a special restaurant for my parents and now for me. I love their food (especially the chicken piccata, baked potato soup, house salad, and bread) and find it reasonably priced. The staff is excellent and well-trained to provide personalized service. Their ambience has a nice warmth to it and I always feel comfortable when I visit. read more

Customer service was really good. Came here and loved how they have the sign so you know if you'll have a seat right away. Came here craving a steak. The portions were huge! But I thought the food was a bit too salty. Ambiance is very nice, dark and cozy. read more

Always great good & service! The artichoke & spinach dip is the best anywhere and the baked potato soup supurb!

We were there for a Birthday party of 15. Service was great! Food was amazing! Large portions. Great time had by all!!

Food, service and ambience Always spot on! We always recommend Charlestons to people that are looking for a perfect meal out.

Ask for Diego! He was our wonderful server who made us feel like the VIPs everyone should be treated like! Order their Prime Rib medium rare with honey butter! Best around and you can thank me later! read more

This place knows how to make a guest feel special! I love that Kale and Quinoa salad so much I get it every time. If you haven't seen it go viral on TikTok, then just know you're missing OUT. We were served by Matt tonight who was so kind and eager to tell us... they have a Paso Robles JOSH Reserve Cabernet now. (California unlike most Josh wines that are made in Illinois). Love to find a new staple wine. Red blend lovers will enjoy it as it's not a true dry cab, and it's got just enough body that cab lovers will appreciate its unique flavor profile. (it's got aromatic notes of coffee with a raspberry finish) We surprisingly loved it even more with the prime rib. Great addition to the cab list! Ask for it so they'll keep it read more
