Surfside Charlies

Went to dinner with friends, ordered chicken noodle soup and garlic spinachi flatbread. I asked the waitress to bring my soup proir to the flatbread. I got the soup prior to the flatbread, soup was OK. When everyone at table received meal, I also got mine. The flatbread was cold to the touch. The waitress did come around and asked if everything was OK, I told her the flatbread was cold, she said she could take it back to have it warmed. I informed her I did not want it. She took it,then returned minutes later saying it was warm. I again said to her I did not want it. 4 stars to the waitress as she was attentive. Atmosphere give 5 stars because I was spending time with friends. This was my 4th time at Surfside Charlies for a meal. Each time the food has been disappointing or the service has been lacking.. I certainly will not recommend this establishment to anyone .The visit was on February 1st. It snowed on January 31st. Our group was 8 people NOT 12. Food is expected to be served hot

We ordered the Friday specials, Friday haddock and the soup and BLT sandwich. We also ordered off the menu the patty melt. Everything we ordered was very good . Service was excellent and the atmosphere was good. Nice place to chill out and watch the game.

We have been here a few of times. Food is normally pretty good. We went last night and the waitress was a little frustrating. I think she tried, but maybe waitressing isn’t her thing. What could have been an “upsell” basically fell through because she couldn’t figure it out. My husband wanted a side of gravy with his fries, which we knew they had because it was offered as an appetizer, and at first she said they couldn’t do it. Then she said that maybe she could, and finally figured it out. Then when I had questions on different items on the menu, she would say things that made me not want to order said item. I placed my order, and tried to order it with “loaded” fries and she said she didn’t know what that was. I said, just fries with cheese and bacon and she said it wasn’t on the menu anymore so they couldn’t do it. No problem. But then they were out of the food item I wanted. Which is also fine. That happens. But then the table next to us had issues as well. They wanted to order maybe a higher shelf whiskey, but she didn’t seem to understand what they wanted. They tried to tell her a couple different ways, and then they finally said nevermind, just give us a house whiskey and lemonade. And she said ok, I can do that. Overall, she was nice enough, and our food was ok.

Great bar vibes! Family friendly, very polite staff. Our first visit, but we will be back because *bonus* it's walkable! Prices are AMAZING

Stopped for lunch on Tuesday just in time for the Tuesday specials. For $10 it's so much food and delicious. I had a half roasted chicken with taters and corn. Very large portion. It was seasoned so well and very tender except parts of the breast a little dry. Overall excellent. My wife had the Salmon teriyaki and it was also very good, maybe a little dry. Also had jalapeño coins appetizer which are great. The rest of the menu is extensive and I'd like to try some of the intriguing entries there. The Tuesday deal changes weekly and we were able to sit on the deck outside and it was fabulous. Unfortunately I forgot to take pictures because I dug right. I have a pic of Jalapeños.
