charlie's restaurant - forest park

I live nearby and I was having my car serviced a few blocks away. I walked to the restaurant to eat breakfast. I was very disappointed with the poor quality of food and I'm bewildered why this restaurant is still thriving. The hash browns tasted frozen or freezer burnt. The omelette was mediocre and flat, not fluffy at all; I assume the restaurant is trying to save money by using less eggs and no milk or cream so the eggs would turn out fluffy. There are better eating options in the area.

The server was nice, food was ok. My friend found a Long black hair in her soup, so we didn't eat it, and had second thoughts about eating anything else. We had our meal, I had the BLT, the Bacon was VERY Dry. My friends had tuna sandwiches, neither of them finished it. The alcohol drinks weren't great. More diner quality. We all mentioned the hair, but nothing was subtracted From our bill. We won't be going back.

The food was good and the waitress was efficient. She answered questions regarding the menu directly and brought the check promptly. Parking: Parking lot
