text: Charlestons has got to be by far one of my favorite restaurants First of all its not very expesive but gives the illusion of a high class nicer restaurant The service is impeccable and the staff really does care about the customer They will comp a meal if they can tell someone is not happy with it They also work as a team so your drink glasses never go empty I also love the fact that I have never had to experience screaming kids For some reason I think people do not consider this a kid friendly restaurant which is fine with me nBut my favorite thing about Charlestons is definately the food I am absolutely in love with the Walts Champaign chicken salad and their croissants with honey drizzle are incredible I have tried several other dishes here so here are my other recommendations nnChicken salad sandwich huge and just a downright good sammich Chicken club salad This is the hubs fav salad Totally a mans salad with fried chicken bacon avocado cheese and make sure to order with lots of ranch dressing to clog your arteries even furthernRigatony Bolognese For not being an italian restaurant this dish was still amazing Creamy and a little spicy Huge portion alsonOver Roasted Chicken One of the best chicken dishes I Have ever had Order with the mashed potatoes very good consistency and flavor and the baked beans dip the chicken in the beans crazy but sooooo goodnPrime Rib with mashed potatoes I Have have never had their prime rib but the hub says its one of the best he has had and is consistently well trimmed and has had good flavor each time he is ordered it nnA few other things worthy of mention nMaryland crab cakes full of crab and the apple relish served with it is fresh and a really good accompanyment and the creamy chicken noodle soup only served one day a week but this is the best chicken noodle soup I Have ever had and I really do not like chicken noodle soup I would eat this shit even when I am not sicknnAnd the last most important thing to remember if you go to Charlestons YOU MUST ORDER THE BREAD PUDDING Yes yes I saved the best for last This bread pudding is the best bread pudding you will ever have I have converted many a bread pudding hater myself included with this bread pudding Haha Take my advise and you will be glad you did I expect a thank you nSo to sum it up Charlestons may be a chain restaurant but I believe its one of the best chains out there Every time I eat there I am content with the overall experience Try this restaurant and their bread pudding and you will not be sorry
