split pea soup (I dunked bread in every bite)
Brandon A.

okay, I'm rating this place on the one meal I've had here, the Whiskey Burger! first though, let me set the scene: this joint is located in a strip mall and kind of has a bit of a sports bar / saloon theme, but also has a "kids only" gaming room attached (like a poor man's Chuck E. Cheese). I had just made a drop-off at Redding Airport and was starving and needed something juicy before making the drive back to Chico... I looked up Charlew's on Yelp and said OK. At 2:30 p.m. on a Monday, the place was pretty empty... a very nice waitress (Brooke?) greeted me, sat me near a flatscreen with rodeo on and she mentioned their soup du jour was her favorite, split pea. I got a Whiskey Burger and skipped the fries for the soup since she gave it a rec and dang, the split pea did NOT disappoint. and then the burger came -- sweet whiskey sauce (not too "boozy"), fried onion rings, bacon, pepper jack cheese on a pretzel bun, BANG! I've had better burgers in my life but not by much... and then I got talked into dessert, which was a scoop of cookies and cream gelato on a warm chocolate chip cookie; yes, I'll be getting one of my feet amputated soon. I have zero idea what the rest of their menu is like or what the night time atmosphere brings, but the grub at Charlew's hit the spot and the place looks family friendly, ideal after a ball game or on a Friday / Saturday night "just to get outta the house." I'll be back like the Terminator!

Here's for reference on the prices per topping when ordering online

Meh. We went to Charlews with family. The menu looked great! Our server was nice but Wow, sooo expensive. We were splitting a xl pizza between 4 people and the minimum for this pizza was $50. We were willing to do it but wanted to remove an item and add something else. We can't do that unless we wanted to spend $6 per topping that isn't on list of items on the pizza menu for that specific pizza. So even if we removed something on the pizza, we'd be charged to add a topping, which was $6. Pretty wild to spend that much just because you want modifications. So we tried to do a build your own with 5 toppings makes the pizza $80... which is crazy! They are only in business because they will supposedly give you free breadsticks for a good review. And the have a jump house for kids. Pretty lame. Save your money, order a pizza and got to rare air. Better experience and will probably spend half the amount ordering somewhere else that has better tasting pizza that doesn't charge you for changes in your pizza. See photos for reference for per topping if you order online. And this is for a build your own!

family deal spaghetti
Jen T.

Charlew's is a cozy diner fitting for a big family outing. The portions here are great but wait times for the food took a while. We had a mix of dishes we liked and others we thought we OK. Let's dive in-- Shrimp Linguine (5/5): This was the best dish we ordered! The lemon cream sauce was bursting with flavor & the shrimp were succulent. The portion was significantly smaller for this dish so the only wish is that there was more of it to go around! Family deal (Spaghetti & Meatballs + Garlic Bread + Salad) (3/5): Garlic bread & Salad were great, the spaghetti however was very lackluster in flavor and we ended up leaving it behind. I really enjoyed the meatballs, they were soft and flavorful. 2 Meatballs (Side dish) (5/5): Delicious!! Soft meatballs covered in a savory tomato sauce. Tap House Combo Pizza (2/5): The pizza was honestly very greasy and difficult to get down. The crust was crispy and burnt on the edges, leaving a strange texture combination. Honestly wouldn't recommend the pizza, similar to other reviews I've seen, but their cream pasta and meatballs are great choices.

BBQ Chicken pizza and Bruschetta
Maui J.

Assistance - Balance + Cleanliness + Deliciousness + Environment + For date night we chose Charlew's. Upon entering the host greeted us kindly, wonderful kind person, magenta or fuschia colored hair, said our server the wonderful Natalie would be with us shortly. Natalie was impatient with our orders. Got our drinks and never came back until the food was ready. She brought it all at once, we got Bruschetta as an app, a small pizza and tortellini as a side fries. She never brought the fries, never got us refills on drinks. When she brought the check I asked for boxes and a refill. She vocally scoffed and said fine. I don't know what her issue was but she stood there by the podium staring at our table for the longest time, like she was in a hurry for us to get done, but decided to never get us refills or check in at all, then I mentioned the fries... What a mistake. I said that I never got the fries and asked if we could just get some garlic bread instead, in my head I assumed it would be a win win since fries don't taste good later and the side of fries is more expensive than two pieces of garlic bread. She got miffed, stomped off got and came back with a piping got dish of fries. I left them there. Aside from some of the most outlandishly bad service I've ever experienced, Charlew's was amazing! Quality and Quantity outweigh the price, place was clean and inviting, the food was delicious and fresh, and the place was old pizzeria meets pub! We want to try it again but if I get that person as a server I'd just leave.

Wedge salad is PERFECT
Mandy W.

DELICIOUS. My pizza and salad was a 10/10. The servers working were all very polite and excellent. The restaurant is decorated nicely and VERY clean. Excellent beer selection and the food is just killer. We will be coming back.

All the workers are so sweet and helpful. 10/10 food and 10/10 service! All the men and women in the grill are pleasant to be around and all work very fast and well! The grill provides a peaceful atmosphere with live music some days!! Some of my favorite dishes are the steak, salmon, hot honey fried chicken sandwich, sliders, burgers, salads, fish tacos, and their breakfast burritos! Amazing dessert as well.

They were quite busy one night but kept track of everyone and their orders. The Woodside Old Fashioned was one of the better old-fashioneds I've had. Ceasar salad was also very good, freshly prepared with lots of Parmesan shavings. I ordered the New York steak rare and it was cooked exactly as I asked, but the steak itself was full of gristle and large fat pockets, so not a great steak. For the price, it should have been much better and that's the only reason for four stars. The second night I had the soup, a Greek chicken soup with orzo pasta. Delicious. Also had the macaroni and cheese which had a nice crunchy top and generous serving. I had breakfast there two mornings - oatmeal with really good fresh berries the first morning, and the California omelet the second day. They were both very good and I would order either one again. The hoteel gave me coupons for 25% off breakfast so it was a bargain. I would recommend Woodside Grill whether you're staying at Gaia or live in the area.

There is a definite ocean/ seafood feel. I was greater by a shy but pleasant and friendly young lady. She was helpful with the menu options and helped me understand the different specials for the day. I ordered the 1-piece fish, fried cheese bread and cup of chowder with a drink for $16.49. And just because I was craving shrimp as well, I also ordered a shrimp cocktail. This ended up being a lot more good than I could eat, and quite honestly, a great deal for the amount of food for under $30 nowadays!! The cocktail sauce is great; it has a little spicy kick but not too much to ruin the shrimp. The clam chowder is awesome. There is a lot of clam pieces, the flavor is really good and it was very filling. The fish cooked perfectly and not overly breaded and not over cooked. I was very impressed. The fried cheese bread is weird "to me" but it has a good flavor. I just wasn't crazy about the texture. Overall, if you're in the area, this is a must stop. I'm so happy I ate dinner here. If I'm ever in the area again I Will return. Thanks for a great dinner!!!

Hungry on 1-5? Stop here for some good, old fashioned fish and chips…read more I love the decor on the inside, they definitely put in effort for that down by the sea look and I love it. The service was great, the girl working was so friendly and nice. She even brough water out for our pup. We appreciated they had outside seating so we could enjoy lunch outside of the car. I highly recommend checking it out. Its in the Anderson shopping center and there is a large parking lot, something I tend to think about when traveling especially if you have a trailer or are pulling anything.
