Think this may be the best Korean food in town. The atmosphere is more modern. The waitstaff was friendly. I'll definitely return.

Recently visited Char'd on a double date. I walk past the spot all the time, and have been wanting to check it out so I was happy to cross it off my list! We started out with the scallion pancake and the sweet & spicy dumplings--which I'd both recommend you order! These are definitely some of the best potstickers I've ever had, topped with a sauce that seemed like chili oil. The scallion pancake had little pieces of shrimp tucked away, which was a pleasant surprise. We also got a complementary dish of kimchi. For the main entrees, our server recommended all of her favorite dishes to us--and 3/4 of us ended up ordering one of her recommendations. My boyfriend ordered the galbi, and the meat was really flavorful. My friends enjoyed the pork and beef bulgogi (also server recommendations). I ordered the jap chae glass noodles, which have a flavor ever so reminiscent of sweet potato. I had never had anything like them, when it comes to taste and presentation! Our server was very attentive with refilling our waters and checking in on us enough throughout our stay. Come to Char'd when you want to try something new! It'd be a great Third Ward date spot, whether you sit at the bar or have a full meal together.

I went to Char'd for a dinner and was seated very quickly. There seems to be fast service in getting your order in and food to the table. However, once the food was placed, service was less attentive. The server was slower with getting water refills and checking in. Overall, the food was delicious. It just leans more towards a "Korean-American" fusion style, rather than a true Korean cuisine. This was a nice place for a casual dinner, but not the best Korean food I've had.

Another great meal at Char'd! If you are dining here, do not sleep on the dumplings. They are to die for! I went for the spicy squid and pork this time. Spicy, savory, delicious. I also tried the yuzu beez specialty cocktail and really enjoyed it! Everyone at our table enjoyed their meals. The service this visit was a little off. The food came out quickly. But our server was not very present as you would normally expect. Could be an off night. One other thing to note. We had a party of 6. It is not unusual to see a gratuity added for a party our size, and it was. But what was unusual was it was listed on the bill as a "service charge". That was unusual to me so I asked about it and was advised that it was a gratuity. I wasn't upset about it. But I would prefer to see it listed as a gratuity. Regardless, we will be back for the amazing food!

I was really excited to go here but was let down. The service was really slow and my fiancé got his meal about 10 minutes before mine, so his stone bowl rice hardened waiting for my food. I got the sweet/sour pork and it was sooo fatty. I had to keep chewing for quite a while and I did not finish this dish or take it home. The sauce was inauthentic as well. Also, they do not give anything for birthdays which was a bummer. On a positive note, it was a nice atmosphere.

Char'd is such a great sit-down Korean restaurant with a modern vibe - something I haven't seen often. This is the perfect spot to split everything you want from the menu (thanks to our Uber driver for that recommendation). Every dish we had was amazing, and the service was great. Tried: KFC wings, garlic chili shrimp, grilled pork bellyLoved: all the food we had. The sauces that came with the grilled pork belly made it so flavorful with all the side accompanimentsThe KFC wings were fantastic, and definitely the highlight. The garlic chili shrimp was also amazing, and reminded me of a better version of the Panda Express honey walnut shrimp with a spicy kick and not as much sugarLiked: it's easier to walk or Uber unless you come on a weeknight - otherwise street parking can be difficult

Fun hipster atmosphere in the trendy Third Ward. Parking nearby, which was convenient. A somewhat limited menu but all the classic Korean favorites. Wonderful food all the way around. The scallion pancakes were very good (had the kimchi version, not seafood). Bulgogi and Galbi were great and portions were about right, not too much or too little. Bibimbap perhaps not completely authentic but great presentation and really tasty. Some interesting drinks, both American and Korean. Service was good, not great. And they didn't have any banchan other than kimchi. But overall great experience. Would go back and would definitely recommend.

Stopped in for valentines this year since they were one of the few places serving a full menu. Food was terrific as always, Korean fusion had a soft spot in my heart before finding Char'd, but it's been taken to a whole new level lately.My fiancé and I love splitting a carafe of Soju as well, it's just the right amount to share. Service for such a busy holiday was excellent, and the mood was perfect.Their KFC wings hold a special place in my heart and I'd highly recommend starting there on your first visit.

My husband and I celebrated his birthday with dinner here this year and it was an overall very nice experience, but the meal didn't live up to prior birthday dinners at Momo Mee, for example.I made reservations a few weeks in advance, though that probably wasn't necessary as the restaurant wasn't completely full when we arrived. We got seated right away and our waitress was very nice and got our orders swiftly.My husband got the Far East cocktail while I did the Yuzu Beez. We both enjoyed our drinks a lot. Mine was sweet and refreshing though got watered down kind of quickly.We started our meal with the shishito cauliflower and Togarashi fries. The cauliflower was amazing! Very flavorful and nicely cooked. The fries, in comparison, were a let down. For fries, they were good, but the Togarashi seasoning was a let down - there was almost no flavor to the fries and even the salt seemed lacking. It also doesn't come with any kind of dipping sauce, but our waitress brought over a gochujang sauce when we asked if they had any hot sauces. The fries do go well with the gochujang.For dinner, I got the tofu sweet glass noodles while my husband got the tofu bibimbap. We both thoroughly enjoyed the noodles, but in comparison were again disappointed with the bibimbap - everything was cooked well, but it just felt like it needed something more.They have one dessert option - the croiffle. We got this to celebrate my husband's birthday and the waitress even put a candle on it, which was a very sweet gesture. This dessert was a perfect ending! It was sweet, flaky, and warm and went SO nicely with the cookie dough ice cream on the side. Would highly recommend this! Overall it was a good dinner experience, but I'm not sure we're in a hurry to go back.

I liked it here so much I came back two days in a row! I went on a Thursday night with my husband for dinner and the restaurant wasn't very busy but when I returned on Friday they had a good amount of business. The restaurant can be hard to find if you're not looking directly at it but the interior is really nicely designed with big floor to ceiling windows at the entrance and a bar on a lower level where you walk in. The staff were all incredibly friendly and helpful with recommendations and I loved all of the food we tried. I had a couple different appetizers and tried a few people's meals and everything was so delicious. The menu is a sauce lovers dream and the flavors are so well crafted. The entrees come with several sides and we had plenty of leftovers to take home!
