Problem: Charcos serves tasty, well-seasoned chicken, sides and fries at a fair price. You can't beat the quarter leg platter, spicy, with two sides for $8. They're busy so be clear on what you want or you may be surprised. They'll serve it to go if you're in a hurry. Well worth trying!

Problem: So.... Where to begin. Let's start on the burgers as it is in the name of the restaurant. They were severely underwhelming. With an overall 4/5 stars I expected at least mediocre. I was, if you didn't catch on yet, disappointed to say the least. The burger patties and seasoning was mediocre at best. I was asked if all the toppings including grilled onions were OK when ordering. Sure, I gleefully replied. Who doesn't like grilled onions? If you don't like them, stop reading your taste buds are broken anyway. Well grilled onions turns out to mean raw diced onions that just barely touched the grill. They were warmed, sort of, but still very much a raw onion. The buns were lacking and produced no memories good or bad. The burger had a very standard, fried burger flavor overall. On to the fries. Not much good to say about those either. More than half were greatly overcooked. Seasoning on them was also extremely inconsistent. Some had no salt, some were so salty I got instantly dehydrated and needed to have IV fluids. The other thing that bothered me (that's right you get more complaining) was the workers. I am all for skirting around my job functions and hanging out with friends but the location they decided to do this was strange. There was literally no one else in the restaurant besides my friend and I. The workers decided to hang out right in front of the drinks, ketchup, and pepper area and talk to each on on either side of the counter. I patiently waited until my burger was finished to get my fixings hoping they would move. They did not. I had to say excuse me while holding my tray to get ketchup. You couldn't pick a place to hang out that wasn't in the way? I mean seriously the entire restaurant was empty... Needless to say at this point, I will not be going back. Two stars only because I did not get sick. Well at least not yet.

Problem: Good God! Just finished Sunday brunch here & I hate myself. Left my room hungry, came back an old pregnant lady. The food here is epic. For $58 per person, you order one entree and then you get to enjoy the buffet. I ordered pan seared scallops and Peter ordered the eggs benedict. While waiting for our entrees to arrive, we enjoyed top notch buffet food. Fresh giant shrimp, crab claws, oysters, delish sushi, seaweed salad and other nommy dishes. There isn't an insane number of items to choose from, but each item is quality. 2 plates each into the buffet, I asked Peter if they're going to bring us our entrees in a to go box! At last our entrees arrived, and they were decent size. I ate my 2 scallops with all the veggies. Peter gobbled up his eggs benedict. Lastly...we made our way to the dessert section of the buffet. Bomb.com! We each got 3 different items and tried all of them. Though we didn't get any alcoholic drinks, bottomless mimosas are an option for $19 per person. Bottomless champagne is also available for a little more. Regular non-alcoholic drinks are included with brunch. Best brunch! Totes worth it.

Problem: Went for lunch this past Saturday at around 11:45. Perhaps 60% of the non-bar seating was filled, but people started to filter in to watch the basketball game on one of the big flat screens hung over the bar. The space is awesome, decked out in a warming red-orange color. There is a long bar along one wall, which leads to an open kitchen. There are several booths opposite the bar and then tables near the front of the place. The smell is intoxicating... nothing like fresh smoked meats! I took the boy (he's from Kentucky, I'm from South Carolina) and we each got a pulled pork sandwich. I had the sweet potato fries which did not disappoint. He had the potato salad which was crunchy and fairly standard (go with the sweet potato fries for the 50 cent surcharge). I tried both the sweet southern and the vinegar sauces, and I think I might mix them together next time (there will be many more next times). Oh, can we talk about the meat for a second? The mark of a great bbq place is that the meat tastes good without sauce! They do bbq right here: moist smokey meat and they leave the burnt ends in! (The burnt ends are those crispy dark bits that are so fantastic) The bottom line: For $6 bucks you can get a great lunch in a nice place. You won't catch me going to any other bbq places in this town, that's for sure.
