Came here on a Friday night with my ladies. I loved the cozy feeling of this place and the vibes. Music was on point. For cocktails we ordered Cloud 9, Ella and D'usse Sangria. My least favorite drink was Ella. The other two cocktails were delicious. We wanted to try the shrimp plantain cups for appetizers. But our waiter stated they ran out for the night. So we ordered the signature mac & cheese which was delicious. For our main entrée I attempted to order the West Indies Scampi but they ran out for the night. Our waiter suggested to order the Rasta pasta with shrimp. We ordered Rasta pasta with oxtail and the Jerk Chicken dish. The Rasta pasta was really good. The oxtail was super tender and the shrimp were seasoned very well. The Jerk chicken dish was delicious and super flavorful. Even the broccoli was seasoned to perfection. Overall this spot is serving great food with a wonderful atmosphere. We will definitely come back at an earlier time to try the food items we wanted.

My friends and I were looking for a great place near the Barclays Center to grab a bite before heading to a basketball game, and Charm Bar & Restaurant was the perfect choice!We arrived early, around 4 PM, and I'm so glad we did because as the evening went on, the place started filling up fast with game-goers. The atmosphere is small, cozy, and lively, with great music playing in the background, setting the perfect pre-game vibe.Since I don't drink, I ordered a piña colada, and it wasn't too bad! For appetizers, I got the beef sliders, which were juicy and flavorful. But the highlight? The shrimp & plantain cups--OMG, the shrimp alone was so perfectly cooked and delicious, I was in love! We also got the jerk wings, which were solid, and another appetizer I can't remember the name of, but everything was on point.For my entrée, I had the salmon with jasmine rice, and while it was okay, it wasn't spectacular. My friends ordered the oxtails with rice, and they really enjoyed their meals. Another friend got the rasta pasta with oxtail and absolutely loved it--definitely something I'd consider trying next time!The service wasn't bad at all, but once it got really busy, it was a bit hard to pay and leave since the staff was occupied with the rush. Not a dealbreaker, but something to keep in mind if you're on a tight schedule before a game.Overall, Charm Bar & Restaurant is a great spot before a game or show--the appetizers are definitely the stars of the menu! I'd love to come back and try another entrée next time. If you're looking for a chill, cozy spot with great food and music near Barclays, this is a solid choice!

Today we visited Charm for brunch and it was great. This is an intimate sized space with a chill vibe. Between the great art on the walls and the warm Caribbean service you will enjoy your time. Add to that the delicious cocktails and equally delicious food, will have you planning your return.Our server was Rockstar and he was. So warm, genuinely friendly and professional! He knew the menus and made great recommendations.We ordered the Mac and cheese with shrimp and the fried calamari as the appetizer, so good! For the mains we had the oxtail and grits (yes you read that right) with cheddar, OMG. A must try.Our cocktails were the Wray Maker and the Ella, simply delicious.

I'll give this place 3 stars bc I like the ambiance & I had a good waiter. But the place is entirely way too small & meals are very over priced. For one appetizer, drink, another appetizer not even a full entree meal & dessert & my bill added up to 99?. Yea idk but overall the food isn't bad but average at best. Their pop oxtail mac is served in a small dish as shown below & isn't a full entree meal.

Charm Bar and Restaurant is a WHOLE Vibe . The customer service presented well with patience as I had to reschedule our brunch time and was able to accommodate brunch for two . Originally, it was a table for 3. The food was good . I ordered the steak and eggs (ribeye medium rare ) with a free. Salad. I always need my veggies. My friend girl ordered the oxtail and grits . We both had bottomless Bellinis and they kept them coming . My waiter was Dammoy was hospitable and sweet . Great customer service . I would like him on upon request . Lol cool people . The ambiance was casual and a Brooklyn vibe . The place is cozy inside and that's okay . I prefer the intimate places anyway . The art o the wall is easy on the eye and almost makes you want to purchase a piece . I do see myself returning to Charm, soon .

I've been to Charm Bar a few times, and overall, my experiences have been good, except for one time when a group of us was seated outside for a birthday dinner. It was cold, and there was no real decor or vibe outside. The food was off that day for all of our meals, the service was poor, and it just wasn't the best day for them.However, I've also had great experiences where it was the total opposite. The staff was friendly and accommodating, and the food was amazing. So I don't want that one experience to discourage anyone from coming here. I'd just recommend requesting indoor seating. The restaurant is small, so it's best to arrive early in the evening to beat the crowd.The ambiance is very nice, with a modern rustic look--brick walls with abstract paintings.On one of my good visits, my meal was fantastic. For an appetizer, I had the Shrimp and Plantain Cups, and for my entree, I enjoyed the Mac and Cheese with a lobster add-on and the West Indies Lobster Scampi. Everything was delicious. I washed it all down with three drinks: The Wray Maker (my favorite), Spicy Meg, and Rum Raisin. They were all on point, but The Wray Maker, with my go-to rum (Wray & Nephew), stood out.Overall, I would definitely recommend coming here, but try to aim for indoor seating. Your experience will be much better.

This establishment is in a central location, located on Dean street close to the Barclays. It's not the easiest to find and there's very limited street parking, but they are open late than most restaurants in that area on a Monday night and I was starving. The decor is beautiful and the restaurant looks clean and trendy. The music selection is fun and very 90's/2000's. I caught myself singing all through my evening, which was fun. I really wanted to love this restaurant as I love Caribbean food but sadly I was greatly disappointed. To start the service was deplorable and that's me being nice. From the moment I walked in the staff's energy was a bit unwelcoming, which for me really took away from the ambiance. However, I still decided to give it a try. We were sat almost immediately. Our server Marlyn came, took our drink orders, and the drinks came out pretty fast. We ordered the Spicy Meg and the AM. I was in the mood for an espresso martini so the AM was the perfect substitute. The Spicy Meg was also delicious, the nutmeg was a perfect touch. Both drinks were strong but did not taste boozy, which was a plus. The server came back and took our orders. We ordered the Jerk Chicken and the Guava Cauliflower Fried Chicken and substituted the rice for the pineapple coconut rice (which was a $12 up charge that weren't notified of until we got the bill- a heads up would have been nice). Our food came out rather quickly, and was delicious and a generous portion. I personally liked the Guava Cauliflower Fried Chicken more than the Jerk Chicken, which surprised me because Jerk Chicken is my favorite. The pineapple-coconut rice was moist and better than the rice and beans as the rice and beans was dry and left little to be desired. However, the Jerk Chicken was tasty and the broccoli was cooked perfectly and the seasoning on the broccoli was delicious. However, my night went south mid way through my meal. As my partner and I were eating and chatting I noticed that my glass for the AM had a crack in it. When I went to turn the glass around it completely broke in my hand. I immediately notified my server and she looked at me unbothered and told me she would speak to the bar. No apologies, no concern, no empathy. I was baffled. 20 minutes later I had heard nothing from our sever and noticed that she was sitting at a table without a care in the world. I flagged over another sever ( I think her name was Chloe) who came over. I explained the situation and she tried to make it right. She looked concerned and said she would be back. She came back and brought me another drink and told me she would take the drink off the bill. She was helpful and she tried to turn it around for us, but the night was already soured by the disdain received from our original server Marlyn, when it was a serious issue that should have been treated as such. It really could have taken a worse turn had glass been ingested or had I cut myself, but she treated it a as minor error. Overall the food and drinks were great but I won't be back. Also, they include a 20% gratuity, which in this case wasn't deserved.

The restaurant failed to honor our reservations, alleging that we had made the booking ten minutes earlier than intended, despite having traveled through the rain to arrive.

Great spot for a delicious cocktail. Came in right at lunch and the staff was warm/inviting. Our mixologist was great at recommending what we'd might like and his drinks were amazing. We ordered the Cloud 9 and Dusse Sangria. The sangria was sweet and berry forward and the Cloud 9 tastes like a pina colada (was my favorite of the two). Recommend having a bite alongside the cocktails since most of the items in the menu have 2 types of spirits in them.I definitely want to come back here; music was excellent and so were the drinks.

Gotta love a black owned restaurant in close proximity to your employer. Came here for dinner three times and for brunch once. I've had fried calamari and lobster ragoon as appetizers. The fried Calamari is amazing especially with the dipping sauce. Lobster ragoons is something I would just have once. The steak with mashed potatoes and broccoli meal is the absolute best. I will not have the grilled chicken rasta pasta meal again; one time thing. The drinks are incredible! Especially the Junelee and Wray Maker. Unfortunately, my brunch experience wasn't the best. I ordered chicken and waffles but instead received chicken with french toast. My side of turkey bacon was burnt and almost inedible. I will be back for dinner and drinks as well as for brunch strictly to try the shrimp and grits. The drinks are too good not to return here.
