Charlie's known for their burgers. They make it from scratch because i've seen them make it. it is not like any preservative patty like the fast food joints serve. That's why the burgers are pricey.
Freshly ground beef burgers at reasonable prices. the menu includes double cheese burgers, gorgonzola burgers, chill hot dogs, phili steak sandwiches, and they have a chiller of imported beer. whether to dine in or take out, it is a good meal.
Complacent staff. Forgot my order and there were barely any people. That's not even the worst part. Meat tasted old.
One evening, I got off early from work and went with my wife on a try-a-new-restaurant date on our way home. We passed through several restaurants and thought to stop by Charlie's Grind and Grill in San Juan since it's a well-known burger joint and we're craving for some beefy goodness.We got in and ordered, but overwhelmed with the choices so we inquired on new terminologies. We ended up asking for the server's recommendation on the burger. He suggested we get the Angus Beef with Cheesy Mushroom burger, and so we did and requested for him to slice into two as we will be sharing. For the sides, I was aiming at the Cheesy Jalapeno fries, and so I ordered that as well...together with the Irish Nachos.So here's my review: the burger was good overall but not great, it lacked something in taste, or something I was looking for. I think it lacked the beefy goodness that I was looking for. There was no beefy taste or aftertaste for that matter. In the end, I wasn't satisfied, it was filling though. Then came the side dishes, I was surprised to see that I ordered two kinds of fries. I wasn't aware that the Irish Nachos were fries because I was expecting for corn nachos. In a way, I was disappointed at the server for not informing us that we ordered two kinds of fries knowing that we would be sharing the food, especially since I told him we were first-timers to the joint.Separately, the Irish Nachos with Chili con carne is delicious (I think), but I had too much fries that crowded my judgement, and taste buds. It was too much fries for us to handle. At the end of the meal, we were left unsatisfied and regretted paying a lot for what we ordered and more regret visiting the place. Don't think we will be going back.
