I stumbled upon Charlie’s Restaurant in Madison Heights on Campbell Road by chance when I was picking up Chinese food nearby. Honestly, I might not have noticed it if it hadn’t been dark outside. The warm, inviting atmosphere and the crowd of people inside on a Thursday evening caught my eye.
Curious, I checked Google for reviews and photos. To my surprise, the food looked incredible, and the rave reviews convinced me I had to try it. Fast forward to today: I finally stopped by, and let me tell you, it exceeded my already high expectations.
I arrived in the morning to find a line out the door—a clear sign of how popular this place is. Luckily, since I was dining alone, I managed to snag a spot at the counter without taking up a table for larger groups. I ordered the Southern breakfast (not sure of the exact name): biscuits and gravy, eggs, sausage patties, and hash browns. Every single bite was delicious!
The service was just as amazing as the food. My waitress went above and beyond, even though I never caught her name (to be fair, I don’t think she mentioned it). She was attentive, friendly, and made the experience even better.
This place is a gem, and I’m already planning to go back tomorrow for breakfast. Highly recommend Charlie’s Restaurant—you won’t regret it!

This place was nice for a sit down breakfast. We had eggs benedict and a turkey club omelette and shared the corned beef hash. Everything was fresh and came out tasting very good. Service was great and our waiter was nice. I wish they renovated the place it needs some updating but other than that it was a nice visit. We will be back for sure.

Got the Greek chicken wrap with sweet potato fries and my friend got a turkey and ham club with fries. Both meals were amazing! The food was fresh, prompt service, friendly staff, and great customers service. The fries are crispy!!
Definitely will be back.

We ordered the corned beaf delight sandwich, tuna salad sandwich and upgraded to a french onion soup and fries on the side, all incredible. The corned beef sandwich was so juicy, bread was toasted perfect, generous portions. Tuna salad exceeded our expectations. Food was so good we ate everything without having leftovers. Great prices and you can tell food is prepared with love. Staff are so friendly at this restaurant and it has the most magical 90’s diner vibe. Truly a hidden strip mall gem 👏🏻

Visiting Detroit and was looking at food options nearby. Charlie's had great reviews and did not disappoint. The corned beef and Swiss was excellent. The fries were good also. I had the soup of the day which was clam chowder. It was very good. I saw many dishes being served and all looked good. Chicken noodle soup is definitely on my next visit. Family owned local restaurant that is an excellent choice. You won't be disappointed.
