Great salad bar. Good food. Slower service
Haven't been to this location in a couple of years, due to it's service declining. We went back today and must say that since changing management and menu, we were pleased and satisfied. Our server, Jackie, made myself and our party's experience a pleasure. She was friendly, courteous, knowledgeable, professional and attentive to our needs. We were more than happy with our visit to Charlie Brown's Fresh Grill and will most assuredly be back. Thank you for a wonderful meal and a wonderful server!
Went in for a visit on Friday evening, my servers/bartenders Lindsay and Nicole work very well together. The service was outstanding! The lite fare menu has something for everyone. The fresh chicken fingers are my favorite. I will return. Oops, I did return the following evening as I was looking for dinner. My servers/bartenders Mary Lou and Allysa, on a very busy evening, were excellent. I ordered a large Filet it came out just right I ate about half of it and took the rest home. Another very pleasant dining experience!
Salad bar was a meal in itself. Our waitress could have been a tad bit more friendlier. Not sure if she was having a bad day. I heard half chicken and ribs and I wasn't disappointed. Enough for another meal. Delish. I am a very picky eater. I often cook gourmet away my own house. Love to cook so when I go out it best be at least decent. Shockingly surprised how good the food was cooked.
Had the salad bar. It was good. Not much in the way for vegetarian's besides the salad bar but the selection is good. You can build a meal or eliminate meat on the menu a little bit. Waitress made us wait too long for drinks and ordering food. When I needed something for my son she was not around. She was friendly. I will go back. Nice restaurant.

Its on the cheaper side. I have mixed reviews. My bf and I have gone 3 times. So we must like it, right? Lol yes we do. This last time was just off.
My bf says his steak was smaller than usual. And honestly mine tasted different..more like liver than steak. Who knows.
We still will be going to charlies..just maybe was an off day for them. Otherwise. Very clean. The place is beautiful. And the salad bar is Great!
Thank you
Took parents to dinner at Charlie Brown's while visiting in NJ... Their salad bar is the best ever... Not the usual fair that most salad bars have and the bread is wonderful! Prices are average and portions are more than adequate.... I always eat so much from the salad bar I take the main course to go! Great place for a small group or a large family outing!!
We discovered this treasure quite by accident. A family emergency brought us up here and one night we just wanted a good meal instead of the garbage we had been getting in the hospital cafeteria while visiting a sick family member. Google maps showed it was close by and open. So we went. Now we come back each time we're in the area.
The steaks are always done and cooked perfectly. The salad bar - not a good word to hear in a restaurant review, is always exceptional, fresh, clean and well stocked. The staff has always been top drawer and made us feel very welcome.
It's a destination we look forward to as much as we do seeing our family when we are in New Jersey.
10/04/2015: Visited this Charlie Brown's location for dinner this evening. Service was slow but the server appeared to have quite a few tables to cover. Food was great from the salad bar, NY Strip Steak-12 oz and dessert. Quite surprised that the coffee was fresh and made the end of the meal delightful. Service aside, i would definitely visit again for dinner.
A very enjoyable dinner. The salad bar is always great, kept very clean, and offers an outstanding variety of items. The bread selection was nice, and the presliced breads were fresh.
Our party ordered three Dutchess Cut prime rib, and one order ribs, (full rack.)
The servings were generous, and three of us had left overs to take home.
Each of our primerib were cooked as requested, although when ordering "well done" be sure to request "no end cut" unless that is what you want.
Service was attentive and friendly.
