    LOVE this place. Food was amazing. Drink choices and a few beers on tap. We are from San Diego and the food was great. I wish we came here earlier in the week, because I would of came here every night. Lots of seating Attentive staff, super friendly, and delicious.

    Awesome new restaurant in Grand Lake!! Mexican food at its best. They don't open until noon-so we waited like an hour but it was worth it. The food is freshly made and it was tasty!! I had the white man's tacos with ground beef. They have indoor and outdoor seating. They are pet friendly. Parking is on the street. There is a Cantina next door. The price is right!! I hope they stay because we will be back!!

    This is a new restaurant and Cantina in downtown grand lake. The cantina is in one building while the grill is adjacent across the court yard. The food was very delicious and plentiful. The Margaritas were made and not poured from a premix. The owners are the people you deal with and they could not be nicer. The service was personal and fantastic. We were told they will be open Mid-may to October.

    We have been here a few times. Food is fresh, wait staff friendly and generous amounts of food. A great addition to Grand Lake downtown.

    A True Gem in Grand Lake…read more As a local, I've been meaning to stop into Charles Bar & Grill for far too long, and I'm honestly kicking myself for not going sooner. I finally made the time, and it was absolutely worth the wait. Even though I came in during a slower off‑hour--when some places tend to let their service slip--the hospitality here was exceptional from start to finish. Kenzie, my server, was phenomenal. Attentive without hovering, genuinely friendly, and clearly proud of the work she does. She set the tone for the whole experience. I sampled a few appetizers along with one of the main entrées, and every single dish was outstanding. Fresh, flavorful, and clearly made with care. It's rare to find a place where everything hits the mark, but Charles Bar & Grill delivered across the board. The atmosphere is warm and inviting, the views are classic Grand Lake, and the service is top‑tier. Whether you're a local or just passing through, this spot deserves a place at the top of your list. I'll definitely be back--and much sooner this time.

    Years ago we came here and it was a place called Pancho and Lefty... We had a great time... We were…read morein grand Lake today for a little hike up to Adams Falls and popped in for a nice lunch... Oh, it was going back in time they've kept the cool decor from poncho and lefty's... and we had a delicious lunch. I enjoyed the street tacos as a recommendation from our server and she was absolutely right. They were really good... My sister had a combination plate. My hubby had a bean burrito and my brother-in-law had crispy chili Relanos and we were all really happy. Super fun place very clean very quick service and it's beautiful on the lake. We'll have to come back when it's not snowing like it was today and enjoy a nice cocktail on the patio.
