    Hickory Burger
    Steve H.

    Charleston's is like an expensive Applebees. They have a full bar and quiet seating areas. This location is in Bricktown, and central to plenty of cool stuff. Our server, Mason was phenomenal! He was always nearby, helped with the menu, and was very pleasant! Honestly, he is the reason they didn't score lower. The food was just OK. It is fine for a quiet meal but I wouldn't go out of my way. Thanks, Mason!

    Caesar salad and croissants were phenomenal, good portion sizes and great service, queso appetizer was surprisingly good too, also highly recommend the dynamite shrimp

    Cort M.

    Drinks were pretty decent. This service was amazing. The vibe in the place was really nice. Everybody was super attentive. The food was pretty good. Had to send the steak back a couple times because it was overcooked or undercooked. The pork chops were amazing all in all it was pretty good.

    French dip and brocolini
    Carman H.

    The patio was gorgeous right next to the canal but the fans were not working . I had a French dip that was delicious and my friend had the shrimp salad .Our server was so sweet and checked on us very attentive. The parking states you have to pay but our waitress said not until 3pm during the week and also you can have them stamp the ticket for you .

    OVEN ROASTED CHICKEN
    Hajar B.

    This dish is always my go-to; it's super delicious, even as leftovers when reheated in the oven. The service is good; she kept checking on us, and I love the very low-key atmosphere.

    We love Charleston's for our monthly luncheons known as Kev's Ladies Who Lunch. They're very accommodating and the food is delicious! Thanks to the fine staff and chefs!

    The lighting of this place was perfect for low exposure pictures such as this one.
    Annalise B.

    The food here was not too hot nor too cold. Depending on what you order, it could either be entirely one temperature or a mixture of both; if the plate includes ingredients that require heat. The service is wonderful, the staff checks in on you every 7-12 minutes and they do a wonderful job to not come off as pestering. The setting is darker than normal, so if you plan to visit in the evening be prepared to bring glasses or adjust your eyes to the dim restaurant.

    Charleston's is consistently solid--great comfort food, big portions, and a warm, polished atmosphere. Service is friendly and reliable, making it a go-to spot for family dinners or casual dates.

    KALE & QUINOA SALAD CATFISH PLATTER Rose wine
    Tonya F.

    We were seated quickly and we had excellent service. Hubby started with the baked potato soup & it was delicious! He had the catfish and it was fried crispy and seasoned perfectly. I loved the 9 oz pour on their house rose, but I didn't notice it was $19! I had the quinoa chicken salad and couldn't finish it all.

    LEGACY FRIED CHICKEN & THE ENCHILADA PLATE
    Angela Marie C.

    LEGACY FRIED CHICKEN (Bricktown location exclusive) was SO GOOD! It came with mashed potatoes, gravy, & seasonal vegetables! I subbed the seasonal veg for the sweet glazed carrots per Mason (very sweet & attentive!) and it was perfect! My bestfriend had THE ENCHILADA PLATE which she says is always yummy! This was my first time at Charleston's and the ambiance was nice seeing people pass by in the water taxis and all! Definitely would come back!

    BARBEQUE BABY BACK RIBS
    Audrey L.

    Friendly service and great food! I recommend the barbecue baby back ribs. The ribs fell perfectly off the bone and cooked to perfection. The sauce was yummy, too. To drink, I ordered the lemon drop and it was the perfect amount of sweet and sour. Our server, Kayla (I think that's her name, she was a blonde gal) was very friendly and attentive. There was ample seating. I'd recommend to join the waitlist. I recommend Charleston's if you're craving some traditional American classics!

    Traci U.

    The restaurant was beautiful & the booths were perfect for intimate conversation. The staff were kind & helpful. The food was delicious & plentiful! We filled up on the dynamite shrimp appetizer & carried the rest of our food to go! The drinks from the bar were excellent! Would definitely recommend Charleston's!

    Peach Bellini
    Teah W.

    Came on a Tuesday night around 7:30 for a big reservation party,we were seated in 7-10 minutes and it was packed. They got our drink orders a few minutes later and it was good service, personality and answered all questions. I got the hand cut filet with mashed potato's and a Ceaser salad. I did have to send my steak back but it was better after and my other food was good . I had the peach Bellini it was good ,as well.

All secondary roads are still snow packed so at 11:30 there was only one other couple in the restrauant. The Press is in an old (1920's ?) repourposed building. The interior is comfortable, charming and a bit whimsical. We started with an order of cheese sticks. They were very good and large. I liked that the cheese sticks did not have Italian seasoning in the breading. Jan ordered the chicken fried ribeye with mashed potatoes, cream gravey and green beans. Jan loved it. I took a bite of the chicken fried steak and it was excellent. The green beans were very good. They were loaded with garlic, which I love, but if you're not a garlic fan, I would suggest another side. I ordered the grilled chicked sandwich with waffle fries. The sandwich was good and the waffle fries were excellent. The portions are large and the food quality excellent. The prices reasonable. The menu has variety.

The patio space in the front was very secluded and lush, we had it entirely to ourselves. Our waitress was absolutely amazing. They even brought out a water bowl with ice for our pups. We loved our drinks. My espresso martini was boozy and not too sweet with a love whipped topping on top. Her Road to Hana was very refreshing and the pineapple tajin garnish hit the spot. Quick shout out to the dinner rolls and butter. I was starving so this held me over while our shareables came out. The Spicy Caesar was nice, loved the hit of heat that came with it. The Chicken Pepperjack Strudel, a signature dish, was really really good. Just wish it was warmer in the center but yea definitely order this. Juan's queso is not a typical queso dish. First, it's real cheese and it comes with a black bean puree, salsa verde, and avocado thinly sliced on top. We loved it, especially my wife.

I came here with a large group of about 8 of us with a reservation made early on. We were seated in a nice, private room and had an overall very lovely experience! First of all, our server Trey was just spot on with all of his recommendations. He recommended the crab cakes, the halibut, and anything that came with the spicy shrimp risotto. Our table got crab cakes to start, and this was probably my favorite dish of the evening! The crab cake was large, fluffy, and full of lump crab topped with a spicy and delicious salsa verde and pico. For the entree I ordered the halibut which was cooked well, but the side of spicy shrimp risotto definitely stole the show (as Trey accurately predicted). Most of our party ordered this and everyone was pretty happy with it! For dessert, our table shared chocolate cake and the coconut creme pie. The chocolate cake was very rich and was probably one of the best chocolate cakes I've had, and I'm not a big chocolate cake person. I still definitely preferred the coconut creme pie, which I would order again next time! Our service was fantastic for the evening, and when Trey tells you to order something, trust him and do it!

    I just returned here after years since Parlor is outside of burger-driving-range from my house…read more The menu had changed a lot with plenty of new additions, which is awesome, but I was worried that the core burgers may have changed too. While some of the wording was different, I was able to order the exact same burger I fell in love with years ago and the flavor instantly sent me back to the first time I tried it. I ordered the MOB XL Burger Basket with Jalapenos, avocado, and loaded fries. The jalapenos here aren't just regular jalapenos. They are flavor country (also very hot). If you like spicy food, these are the best burger jalapenos in the city imo. My gf ordered the regular single with jalapenos and was annihilated by the spice. She's kind of a wimp when it comes to spice but she trucked through it because the flavors are so good. Long story short, this is still my fav burger in OKC (by a long shot). The fact that this place isn't always highly-rated in a state where people worship Whataburger and Braum's borders on absurdity. MOB is similar to Tucker's but better in every way. It absolutely annihilates S&B and the Garage in flavor. The only possible downside is if you want a tame burger, then sure this isn't the place for you. But if you are big into flavor, this place will take care of you better than your mama. Now that they have delivery options to my house, I will definitely experiment with the other menu items. Thanks Marco!

Our server was nice but a little discombobulated. I think she may have been overwhelmed by all the people and was very forgetful. We got our food rather quickly. Our server kept forgetting items in our order and had to make multiple trips to get them. The dinner rolls were big and good according to my table who enjoyed all of them. I got a 1/2 lb mushroom Swiss burger without the bun and a side salad. My burger was dry and unremarkable for the price. One of my people got the catfish and said that it was delicious. He really enjoyed it with the green beans. Another got the chicken fried steak and had a similar reaction as my burger. It was dry and the gravy didn't really help save it. The last person in our group got the pancakes and really enjoyed them. Overall, it was alright but probably won't go back for anything except the rolls. I think I expected more for my over $80 experience.

The restaurant is typical small town; a throwback to another era before the explosion of chain restrauants. We were greeted by Curtis who opened the restrauant 47 years ago. The venue is causal and relaxed. The menu features all you can eat catfish for $14.95 and comes with a garden salad and two sides and a small bowl of pinto beans and hot roll.
