Extremely beautiful and hidden restaurant. There is an extremely beautiful outside area and outside bar. Plus, right on the water, Bring a camera because someone is going to want to post some pics. And the food is goooooood. And the price is right.

I visited Charley's Sue Creek for a friend's birthday. The weather was nice, so we opted for outdoor seating. The restaurant was clean and clearly a local favorite, as it was bustling with activity. While I can't recall our server's name, he was fantastic--making great recommendations and staying attentive, even though it was a busy day.I ordered the salmon BLT wrap (without avocado) and sweet potato fries. For the table, we shared bang bang shrimp, calamari, and their famous green beans. Overall, the food was good, though I think I would've preferred my wrap as a sandwich. Still, it hit the spot.Great vibes, decent food, and a nice view made for an enjoyable experience.

Babe and I were taking a nice Sunday ride and found ourselves in Essex MD. We hit up Yelp, and this spot had great reviews so we decided to check them out. We came on a Sunday which was perfect because It was not crowded at all and the vibes were calm. The ambiance is cute and chill, with comfy seating inside and out. The building is basically a transformed garage with quirky touches. I liked how they gave us a cup of gold fish to snack on as we looked over the menu and made our decisions The food and service was 10/10. Things we tried:Street Corn ($12)Bang Bang Shrimp ($17) (6pcs)Cheeseburger ($17)Old Bay Crab Burger ($19)The street corn was good and different. It was covered in Cool Ranch Doritos chips, which I had never I had before and will definitely be getting It again. The Bang Bang shrimp was nice and crispy. The batter to shrimp ratio was very good. Last but not Least, the burgers were banging! Nice and juice and cooked right just to the temperature you like.They have two nicely lit patios and I can't wait to come back and check them out for the winter time.

We visited Charly's on a Sunday afternoon around noonish and opted to sit outside. The outdoor seating is located on a waterfront with a nice view. The service was great and our waiter did an amazing job juggling as the bartender and the waiter for all tables surrounding the bar. Now, on to the food. Unfortunately, I wasn't impressed. Maybe if I chose the Lobster Roll, which apparently they are famous for, I would've enjoyed my dish. The food photographs well, but the bite was not. We ordered chicken tenders which were supposed to be tossed in Thai Chili Sauce, but it was not. The Thai Chili Sauce was on the side. The crab dip, well let's just say they forgot all the crab! It was a brick of warm cream cheese with a slight sprinkle of cheddar cheese on the top, and that was it. Seemed like it was also missing Old Bay. Luckily, our waiter was kind enough to take it off the bill. He was also apologetic and accommodating-very kind man. The shrimp quesadilla was also very bland and had some sort of sweet and spicy sauce drizzled over them; which was not noted on the menu. At that point, I didn't want to be that person that had an issue with everything, so I didn't send it back. I just scraped the sauce off the top and ate one of the four quesadilla triangles. My son ordered the chocolate chip cookiewhich and it was HUGE! He took a few bites and was done. I would visit again for drinks with a view, but not much more. Giving two stars versus one due to the service with a smile. Cheers to a great time!

This was on my boyfriend's list of places to go for a while and it did not disappoint! The service was quick and great. They were very friendly and the food! So delicious! We got crab egg rolls. They give you two full egg rolls and they have so much crab meat inside. For our entree we both got tacos I got shrimp and he got fish. Both delicious! I can't wait to go back and try some drinks next time

I absolutely loved the view. It was a nice day to sit outside and have some drinks and get something to eat. I ordered the jalapeño margarita. It was just a margarita with jalapeño slices floating around. I think it was missing something. I also ordered the crab fried rice and it was so bland that I also asked for some sauce to go in it. He gave me some teriyaki sauce. It did make it taste a little better. The fried rice just had succotash in it and some crab meat. If they could've seasoned differently or actually tasted like fried rice that would've been good. Lol! Alright, and next, I ordered the crab pretzel. It was good, but it could've had a lot more crab dip on it. It was just a smear and then cheese toasted on top of it. It was good, but like I said, it could've had a lot more crab dip on it and I would have been satisfied lol! Tyler was our waiter and he was awesome!

Nice vibey spot for drinks near the water! Service was a little slow and the food was hit or miss but they had great orange crushes and a large family friendly outdoor area with live music, which I love! We kicked off MDW here and had a nice time, the weather was perfect! The outdoor bar is large and there are plenty of seating options with tables, couches, Adirondacks and more. For food, we tried the lobster roll, bang bang shrimp, and the crab pretzel. The crab pretzel was huge and definitely our favorite! The bang bang shrimp were good and I loved the seaweed salad on top, but the portion was pretty small for $18... The lobster roll was apparently voted Best in Baltimore but was not good at all in our opinion. The lobster was tough and rubbery/overcooked and it was nothing compared to quality lobster rolls you can find elsewhere in the Northeast. Would probably stick to bar food classics here, but the potential is there for this to be an amazing waterfront bar! Just need to work out some of the service kinks, but would definitely come back at least for some drinks and live music in good weather.

Nice Sept day outside on their deck. Sports on the TV, a guy playing guitar. Nice vibe at the marina. Service was a little slow but very friendly.I had beer but my wife had a few cocktails that she liked. Lunch was a lobster roll and poached lobster taco's. We'd repeat.

Saw this spot highlighted on instagram and had to check it out. Very glad we did bc it was a whole vibe - plenty of tables and bar seating, plus a whole covered area outside with couches and chairs (plus huge fans to keep the air moving). Staff is all very friendly and accommodating - we brought in a birthday cake that they held in the back for us until we were ready. Drinks are all delicious and decently priced. Food was also all delish - fish tacos were STUFFED and the burning man burger had the best spice. Most definitely recommend this spot if you're looking for a casual spot on the water with good food and drinks.
