This small steak house on the end of town has an appearance of something like a Sizzler but a menu of something much more. Main menu items include fillets, rib eyes, salmon, lobster and other upscale dishes. The interior decor is simple tables with cloths, wood trim and a local country radio station playing in the background (happened to be the same one I was listening to in the car). Dress is casual. The bar seemed well stocked. Dinner for me included the main course, choice of soup or salad, baked potato or fries, beans or carrots, a sourdough bread loaf (hot and soft), and dessert. I found the staff to be as friendly and helpful as you could want. No complaints at all. With one drink and tip I was out the door for about $45 but could have easily spent another $10-15 if I ordered a more expensive course. read more

Hamburger was great. Portions extremely small. Baked potato wrapped in foil. "Really"???! Atmosphere really needs a make over. The plastic flowers around the restaurant are so out dated, as well as a need for updated glassware. If the new owners want to keep that same decor and not update Charley's, I believe they will not grow their business. Wickenburg is growing and needs a great steakhouse and sit down bar. Charley's can so inviting with a warm atmosphere. Hopefully the new owners make huge changes. We just drove by and noticed the plants out front of Charley's, "Nice Addition"!!!! Looking forward to trying Charley's once you re-open after summer. read more

Our experience at this restaurant was disappointing. First, let me say that the place was very clean. When we sat down, we noticed that the owner was visiting tables. I asked our server if she could ask him to stop by and say hello since it was our first time there. She suggested that I call out to him when I saw him, which was a bit strange. I did call out to him, but he didn't hear me. The food was terrible. We ordered three steaks. The special of the day was the prime rib, and we asked for an end cut, which was available. However, the entire cut was extremely dry. I had the T-bone, and the filet portion was extremely small and rare. The rest of the meat was medium, which is not what I had ordered. It was not a good cut of meat. Our guest had the New York strip, and he said it was just okay. Our server walked by and asked, "Everything okay?" while she kept walking without even looking at the table. If she had taken the time to look, she would have seen that I hardly touched my food. Overall, it was a bad experience. We spent over $200 for three people, and the food and service were below average. read more

Husband and I were looking for dinner after the local softball tournament. The prices were over expensive for what we got, the veggie was canned corn, rolls were bagged hoagie rolls, the potato was cooked well, but they told us to use the bread butter for the potato and the salad dressing was bottled. Very disappointed. read more

Stop by while we were out on a drive. It was a Saturday in January and this place was popping with the boomers. But I'm sure that's who is here at all times. We had to wait about 5 minutes to be seated. I ordered a T-Bone. My husband did the filet. The menu says all vittles ( we don't know what that word means) come with salad, baked potato, cowboy beans, bread and butter.. We finished the meal with pecan pie. Overall service was good and the food was alright. Some how the fries tasted exactly like McDonalds.. win in our book. read more

Just happened in with my wife on a Thursday night, she had the New York I had the T bone. I had driven past the restaurant many times not having time to stop. Well I'm glad we finally did Charley puts it together well old school, he has a great steak experience. Can't wait until our next visit read more

Small town, throwback vibes... brought back memories of 1970's restaurants. We kept it basic with ground sirloin, baked potato and salad, and everything was really tasty. High quality meat which we really enjoyed! Don't forget that your dinner includes ice cream :-) read more

Fair at best... Small portions as well as extreme cost. It took a long time to be served, Very short staffed it would seem. read more

Service was great and the Filet was wonderful, bread was fresh, Salad was great! Friendly atmosphere and definitely would go back!

Celebratory dinner. Great rib eye. Service couldn't have been better. Old school. We were there on a weekday. 3 other couples and a family for an early weeknight feast. read more

Service was great! It was the food I had an issue with. Paid over $50 for a steak with absolutely no flavor or seasoning to it and a great portion of it being fatty (most flavorful bites). Again the people taking care of us no issues read more

We went for the Rack of Lamb and it did not disappoint. It was very well prepared and had great flavor. The service was outstanding and they made sure all our needs were met. The ambiance is what you would expect from a good steakhouse. read more

Great atmosphere, tablecloths and cloth napkins but homie. Service was great, had a cocktail, they serve a small loaf of bread and butter. Wife had 1/2 rack of lamb and two sides. I had the Ribeye both Med Well. Both dinners were about $40 each. Our meals were cooked just the way we liked it. Two dinners, 4 glasses of wine and bill was $110 including tax. If you pay cash you can get a10% discount. We thought it was good and fair. Each dinner came with 2 sides and a dinner salad. We would recommend. read more

Another great meal! We have had consistently great service and food. The atmosphere isn't blasting with music, television noise and people trying to talk over all of it. read more

Food was solid but it took me a New York minute to realize- the service was slower than molasses and the old gentleman behind the bar was extremely rude and put his dirty paws all over my drink. read more

I'm a resident of Wickenburg and eat at Charley's Steak House fairly regularly. The restaurant is kept very clean, the service is attentive and, most importantly, the food is consistently good. Patrons sit at a table that has a tablecloth and a bread plate and butter for the freshly baked bread which is brought out soon after arrival. Most days there's a special that is well priced and always good. For all these reasons I highly recommend this restaurant. read more

Charlie usually has lamb on Thursday nights, but he accommodated our birthday request for lamb on a Saturday! And it was cooked perfectly! Thanks Charlie read more

Service at this restaurant is excellent, however that's as far as it goes. My wife order a New York Strip . And if was full of fat and not tender at all . I had ribs , and I know ribs meat usually falls off the bone, these were terrible, the meat refused to come off the bone. And the cost was ridiculous. Just for the two of us without drinks was $76.00 . Don't waste your money unless you want to eat terrible food read more

This is a wonderful place to eat, certainly the best in WICKENBERG. Not the fanciest but their steaks are tender and well done.

Everything was amazing! The service, the food, the drinks, the value. It reminded me of supper clubs back east. I had the porterhouse which was cooked to perfection. Includes warm bread, salad and dessert. Everything was spot on including the well poured cocktails (again, reminds me of the super clubs)! Definitely will be back! read more

Always a great meal at Charley's Steak House. Tonight's special, Fish Fry. Delicious! (I've enjoyed the steaks here too). The service is exceptional, the old fashioned, spotless interior/exterior Charley never misses a personal greeting. We've been enjoying Charley's for many years, and will continue as long as Charley stays open!! read more

I love the homey atmosphere Service was great, the food was absolutely delicious and we got to talk to Charley! He heard it was our 1st time dining here, so he wanted to introduce himself and ask us where we we're from. We must have chatted with him for about 1/2 hr. We will definitely be back! read more

We absolutely love Charley's Steak House! We've been coming here for over 25 years. The place feels like home to us. I am a huge fan of the Friday Night Fish Fry. The waitress, Karen is a joy and she always gets the order right. She is so kind and very good at what she does. The food is always excellent. We have always dined in, but lately due to the pandemic we have been getting take out which promoted a great review because the take out has been excellent as well. We love the ribeye, the fresh loaves of bread, and especially the fish fry. The ranch is so creamy and yummy as well! If you'd like a steak or a burger in Wickenburg, check out Charley's Steak House! We love it! read more

The service and people were real friendly but for a $38 ribeye, it was the worse steak I've ever had. So bad I didn't even eat half of it. My wife had the salmon and said it was real dry but she did like the baked potato. My son wouldn't even eat the French fries. For having such a limited menu I wound think what they did offer would be at least edible. read more

The few bad reviews this place receives baffle me. I've dined at steak houses the world over and can think of only a handful where I've had a better experience than Charley's Steak House. My service was prompt and professional, my meal was cooked perfectly and the busy atmosphere was humming with real people enjoying a nice night out. Altogether a wonderful time. read more

Service was good, but for the price they are charging for the steaks that were both over cooked and the child size cocktail glasses they serve are not worth the money by far. read more

Went for there fish fry place was 1/2 empty service was absolutely horrible food was great. If eating there expect long wait for food and check and forget about refills on water or drinks. read more

OMG! This was, indeed, "a find"!! We're building in Wickenburg Ranch and really love this little town - everyone is so friendly!! This restaurant is awesome!! The service is second to none, our wait person was Caren! We really enjoyed talking with her! The food?! Rivals the high end steak houses!! EXCELLENT!! We can see this becoming our Friday night date night place - except Saturdays is prime rib day so we may have to switch it up some times!!! read more

Made reservations when we were 20 min out they took us right away . Food was excellent our server was super nice . There were three of us and we were all very satisfied. I would come back again . Plus if you pay cash $ you get a discount of 10% not a bad deal . read more

The best place in town for steak and Lobster. Or anything. Heard the walleye is amazing. Mr. Charley will always cook it just as you like and the small town atmosphere is great. They are amazing! Thank you for always taking care of mr read more

unsanitary, restroom, smelt horrible down the hall, dry food, small portions, very much overpriced.

Went in on a Tuesday night when the special is hamburger and french fries which was excellent. Other members of our party had orange roughy, fried oysters and hamburger steak which were also very good. The service was excellent as well read more

Truly the best steakhouse in Wickenburg. The food is delicious and the staff professional. Daily specials are reasonable priced and delicious. The decor is what I remember steakhouses used to look like, cozy and comfortable. read more

This was a very bad experience. Horrible service, ordered steak medium rare received them well. Messed up order twice. Never got my second glass of wine. Took over 2 hours to get through dinner. I will never be back again. If I could leave less than a star I would read more

Just finished eating and have to say this is by far the worst steak/ food I've ever eaten. You really have to work at it to make a 35$ filet taste this bad it tasted like it was cooked in the microwave my wife had the chopped sirloin and it was like chewing on a flip flop .... acid this place someone needs to put a fork in it, it done! 60$ latter we walked out I'm sorry I just cannot say enough bad about this place canned green beans... really? Come on I felt like I was eating at a county funded convalescence hospital read more

Too Good To Be True My husband and I were driving through Arizona and were hungry so we stopped in. Best decision we ever made. Since it was Saturday night, we ordered the Prime Rib Special for $24.50. The prime rib was so moist and tender that we didn't need to chew. It almost melted in our mouths. The dinner came with a choice of soup or salad, a choice of vegetable and cowboy beans. We received a small loaf of warm bread at the beginning. Even the bread was fresh cooked and tender. And the dinner came with a dessert. Bring cash as they give a discount for cash. Service was excellent! If we are ever in the neighborhood, and I'm sure we will find a way to be in the neighborhood, we will stop by again. read more

It's nice to have a small, quiet place to go to. No loud music. They have a very nice atmosphere. I had the prime rib Saturday special and it was very good. Cooked just the way I like it. My hubby had the chopped sirloin and it was cooked just the way he liked it. Plan to go back on a different night to try the special. read more

This is very wonderful and unique place very simply offers the best steak and meat dishes in the area I live in Los Angeles and frequent some of the best steakhouses in the world and I've got to tell you this place has been consistently fantastic for over 20 years in my life. We drove from Los Angeles to have dinner here with my friends who live in the area of Wickenburg and again it was just awesome. We had the filet the lamb chops a great baked potato and my friends had other assorted dishes and everybody was happy. Congratulations Charlie I'm keeping this place and great family tradition for so many years. We all will be back again and again read more

Little steak house for an reasonable price! Service was great and the food was delicious!

If you like middle school cafeteria food, Charley's Steak House is for you. A clear indication of quality is obvious upon seeing their mis-lighted sign that reads "Charley's Stea' 'ouse". I enjoyed the grocery store bought frozen fish sticks and a measly helping of cold soggy fries advertised as "fish fry". Hardly a fish fry. More like a lazy/lousy attempt at something pretty straight forward. To be blunt: garbage. read more
