Reviews for Char Steakhouse in Raritan, NJ
We found Char Steakhouse through a Google search while visiting the area from out-of-state. Starting with complimentary rosemary... focaccia bread, we enjoyed crab-stuffed mushrooms, dry aged Prime Cowboy Ribeye, salmon cobb salad, sautéed spinach, and a trioof lemon, mango and raspberry sorbets. Everything was beyond delicious! Our waiter — Emery — was simply first class. We werealso impressed with the hostesses, busboys, and management who all worked together seamlessly to ensure a memorable experience.We highly recommend this truly wonderful restaurant!! Read more
Our waiter Emery was outstanding and spot on. His recommendations were superb. 3lb lobster seemed on the lite side compared to... the last time we where there. Other than that all was just as good as always Read more
Lots of steak options at a fair price point. Entrees are a la carte. A few options for those who don't wish to dine on beef they... have a couple of chicken dishes as well as seafood dishes but as stated in the name this is a steakhouse. Nice ambience as wellas an outside seating area and a bar. Complimentary bread is served with butter, all desserts are made in house. Wait staff aswell as hostesses were very attentive bathrooms were clean as well as restaurant was highly recommended that you makereservations. This is family owned which speaks volumes. Read more
Nice ambience, great service, lovely wine options, and pretty good food. Tried the steak, mashed potatoes, Mac and cheese, and... creme brûlée. Steak was cooked nicely but not flavorful at all. The roasted garlic it came with was a nice touch though. Cremebrûlée came with amaretto cookies and was sweet but absolutely delicious. Wouldn’t mind coming back for another businessdinner. Now for my standard COVID comments as of May 2022. Seating is decent. We sat in a section that’s farther from theother tables so it was perfect for me. I don’t believe I saw much of the staff wearing masks. Still felt comfortable eatingindoors there. Read more

From the moment we walked in to the service it was an awesome experience. We were celebrating an anniversary! The seafood tower... with its variety was great. It came with lobster, shrimp, oysters, crab and clams. The bone in rib eye was cooked perfect. Getthe popover bread it’s a must and delicious! Read more
Great steak. Had the 12 oz filet. Cooked perfectly. My wife had the crab cakes that she thought were the best she’s ever had.... Service was top notch even with a full restaurant. Was our first time at Char and we were impressed. Will definitely be back. Read more
Very busy definitely get reservations! Great service and food and ambience. $35 corking fee. Focaccia bread was a bit... disappointing, crust was soft. Make sure to ask for specials off menu... the zucchini flowers were amazing and off-menu... evenif too much cheese for me. Escargot and tomahawk were perfection. Read more
