Wow, what a dissapointment. We went to Fla. for my birthday, and Charley's Crab for the celebration. I thought the food was average. My husband ordered one drink, which was so watered down, I tasted it ( I don't drink), all I could taste was flat coke. We mentioned it to the waiter, who returned and said the bartender wouldn't...

We were trying to find a nice restaurant during our vacation for a family dinner. Charley's was good and had a lot of seafood choices, but we were unfortunately stuck in the back room without the view/ambience. It dampened the overall experience - and as such the food, though good, didn't seem to warrant the high prices. Just ok experience... More

food was very good. service was a bit slow & even after asking for our check we had to get up & find the waiter. The service is the only reason I didn't give it 5 stars. They did bring us a free dessert from having our hotel concierge reserve the table (we were at the Ritz Carlton). I thought... More

My partner and I enjoyed a really lovely evening here. The menu was to die for and we struggled to chose what to order. We went with the waitress' recommendation and shared the oysters rockefeller which were delicious. For appetisers, the moules and the tuna, both great. For entree, the mahi mahi and the seafood mixed grill and unsurprisingly we... More

Was referred her by our concierge and was treated royally, even with a full restaurant. Good Wine list and selection of seafood. Pricey, but I felt this was a good value, particularly compared to some of the local restaurants. I would definitely go again.

Great food and service. They knew it was my birthday and had personalized menus printed. Food was excellent, service was very good, nice wine list reasonably priced. Bread was great with bourson spread. food was pricey but the added upgrades and ambiance made it feel worth the extra $$$$. will be back..

Charley's Crab sits right on Ocean Drive just south of West Palm Beach. Views of the Atlantic are great and the staff were professional and friendly. We found the Dynamite Scallops appetizer, served in an Oysters Rockefeller style, to be really tasty and a bit spicy with Sriracha seasoning. The fish was served hot and fresh, in a very nicely...

Although there's not an ocean view this restaurant is located across the street from the beach. The decor is nice, but not all of the rooms are created equal... we at first were seated in a very bright, overly air conditioned room full of families with toddlers, but when we asked to sit in a different room our request was...
