What customers say?

“ Went here for a birthday dinner with my friend and the service was quick and friendly. The ambiance is very nice inside we were basically the only ones but it was a weekday around 1pm. I really enjoyed all the food and it’s plated really nicely as well. Good portion sizes with nice flavour. I would definitely be back to try more menu items. ”

“ We dined at Charcut during the Visa Infinite Dining Series. We had a blast. The dishes were fabulous, the service, stellar and the pairing (tequila, beer, red / white wines, ports) were perfect. Connie, John and their friend chef Henrique went well beyond our expectations. It wasn't just a meal but a celebration of cultures, culinary exchanges and friendship. Thank you Chefs for the amazing night, one to remember. ”

“ My wife and I came in for our birthday dinner- our birthdays are only days apart. We put that in the notes of our reservation. From the time we got in to the restaurant to when we left we were treated so kindly. We ordered the chefs plate and it was all time delicious. A thoughtful platter of cheese and meats and spreads each explained for us by the chef. A very good experience and if you are at all a “food person” this place will be exactly what you are looking for. ”

“ No complaints on their ability to handle a large group of 11. This place is just as good as their downtown location. Their fish is excwptional, handled with a delicacy of the best Chinese steamed fish but with Italian butter and lemon flavors. Would be excellent with rice. My complaint is that the desserts are trying too hard, the "cheesecake" and Italian flan are far too deconstructed leaving the doughnuts the best dessert because of it's conventional nature. ”

“ We have two people enjoying a meal together. The pasta and beef are both good and the atmosphere is lovely. The octopus flavor is a bit subtle due to the sauce, but still tasty. The fried pork belly is a bit heavy on the fat and skin, could use more meat. Overall it's not a bad experience. ”

“ What an amazing experience at Charcut! We've been frequent visitors to the downtown location, and it has never disappointed. This time, we enjoyed a family gathering (kid-free!) and had a fantastic outing. The food was phenomenal, with the charcuterie board stealing the spotlight. The bison meat was absolutely incredible—hands down the best I’ve ever tasted! The service was top-notch, attentive, and friendly . We’re already looking forward to our next visit to explore more dishes on the menu! ”

“ Had a great dinner with my family here! Their carbonara was great! Al-dente pasta with cheesy cream based sauce and a yolk that adds character and flavour. Their happy hour is great value too, especially if you want to try out their cocktails. We had a pizza, but I wish we could order Connie & John’s pizza for dine-in. The staff said they used the same oven, but the Charcut pizza vs C&J is way different from each other. Their selection of charcuterie meats was the highlight of our night! Parking can be tricky around University district, so plan ahead! ”

“ Finally a good place! The prosciutto was great. The focaccia was very good. Loved the pasta. The pizzas around me also looking amazing! There is a good choice of different things on the menu. And the dessert was just excellent, no too sweet, very nice flavor (chocolate, caramel..). This will for sure be very soon a place where you struggle to find a table! I will be back! ”
