The steaks were amazing! Our waiter Paul was absolutely amazing and he gave lots of great recommendations!

Amazing food and ambience! Service was professional and impressively good at their craft!

Had a very enjoyable evening with colleague. Food and service excellent and we were able to enjoy our conversation.

Great experience ! The menus are traditional and the char steak sauce was amazing with the truffle fries ! Definitely would come back to Char!

Great date night atmosphere, enjoyed sitting on the patio. Caesar salad was average, soup was served cold but they replaced it. Bread, scallops and lobster was delicious. Ribeye quality not up to its price, not bad but not much flavor. Crème brí»lée dessert was delicious. For a nearly $100 steak the flavor just wasn’t there even though it was cooked perfectly. 4 of 5 stars, would go again.

The food was all of the first order. A special note is made about Russell a head waiter. He is an accomplished professional and adds value to the restaurant’s reputation. He should be commended by the ownership of Char

I would expect nothing less from Char! The food is always great and the service is on point for the most part. They do their homework when ut comes to what items will be on the menu (especially steaks!) They season and cook the meat to perfection, and the desserts are always a hit! A special shout out to Nasir, he did a wonderful job of taking care of us!! It was my wife and I 16th Anniversary and he made our evening so enjoyable. Would definitely recommend!

Liked the new Spring/Summer menu. It’s certainly one of my favorites when staying in Rochester.

Attentive service. Our server was wistful and wonderful. One of the best steaks I've had this year (so far).

Great experience! Our server was absolutely incredible and attentive. I cannot wait to come back again. MP on the lobster did catch me off guard though, should’ve asked before I got the bill how much it was.. best lobster I’ve ever had though so it’s tough to complain.
