We had dinner for two in the main dining area next to the roaring fireplace. Beautiful and charming decor. Food was perfectly prepared. We had the duck and the fisherman’s stew. My husband said it was the best duck he ever had. The fisherman’s stew was delicious. The saffron broth was amazing. Charlotte’s is a special place for any celebration. We will be back. Desiree our server couldn’t have been more attentive and friendly.

The food was ok. Plating and presentation was a bit lacking for the prices they charge. The pictures on the website do not match what we were served. Also we ordered the seafood crepe - it comes with just one and not two as shown in the pictures. That said, the quantity was adequate.Service was excellent. That was indeed as expected for a place like this. There were 2 servers - both managed their tables with attentiveness.Great armosphere esp. if you sit by the bar. Good selection of Scotch. If you want to enjoy a drink - this is indeed quite cozy.0verall - it could be really great and they probably are - but on the night we were there - the food was not something we would go back for.

Charlotte's is not simply fine dining, it's an experience. The venue is simply beautiful. If you are looking for someplace to have a wedding, this would be on top of my list although I'd expect to pay top dollar. They have a beautiful banquet room for weddings along with another large dining room for larger, private, gatherings But back to our experience.They start you out with warm, fresh bread. The waitress apologized that they had left the bread in the oven a bit too long and it was a bit crispy. She didn't want us to wait and said fresh bread would be on the way. Shortly after we started on the crispy bread, she brought out the properly warmed bread. We loved both!We then had their filet mignon and their double cut pork chop. Both were absolutely mouth watering. The presentation was in a league of its own. It looked so nice I didn't want to eat it. But once I got started I couldn't stop. It was beyond delicious. Dare I say it ranks among my top 5 restaurants of all time.For dessert we had the homemade berry sorbet and the flowerless chocolate cake. Again, out of this world with a presentation to match.The restaurant has a large, cozy, fireplace, beautiful accent lighting, French doors and beamed ceilings. The same is true for the bar area. It's really a site to behold. If you want to REALLY impress someone on a first date, take them here. This is an excellent anniversary restaurant as well. I'm using these as examples as this is not the kind of restaurant one could afford to go to everyday. It's not crazy expensive, but certainly up there yet worth every penny.I do not like going to the same restaurant twice, but this is one I will absolutely revisit. Charlotte's gets my highest recommendation.

Very odd experience. We were the only people there on a Friday night. The French Onion soup was so bad I had to send it back--it tasted rancid. Everything about the decor seemed musty and dated.

Had my birthday dinner there on a weeknight.Food was excellent, with very attentive server. I had pork belly perfectly glazed with fine Asian influenced sauce., my husband ‘s salmon was not run of the mill but rather seasonally spiced to remind us of autumn and accompanied by root vegetables… my sister had the short ribs- yummy she said!Cozy fire was keeping us warm and comfy in bar area.

Charlotte's Restaurant & Catering is a modern American restaurant and catering company that opened in Millbrook, New York in 2006. It was founded by husband and wife Mikael and Alicia Moller. Mikael started out as a restaurant apprentice in Sweden when he was just 13. He immigrated to New York City in 1981 and worked at several high-profile restaurants. Mikael met Charlotte when he began working as a chef for Charlotte's Catering where she was also working. After marrying in 1989, they bought the catering business. After a trip to Millbrook, they fell in love with the area and wanted to open a restaurant in town. They purchased the building that housed Allyn's Restaurant in 2006 and renamed it "Charlotte's Restaurant". The location was built in the 19th century as a church before being converted into a theater and finally a restaurant space. My wife and I recently dined at Charlotte's while we were visiting Millbrook. We were celebrating our sixth anniversary with a stay at Wing's Castle nearby. Charlotte's came highly recommended. We really liked all of the Autumn decor adorning the dining room. We started things off with some Autumn-inspired cocktails: I had the "Apple Pie Martini" while my wife had the "Warm Cider with Spiced Rum". They both really hit the spot. For entrees, I had the "Cornish Game Hen (with quinoa, butternut squash, pickled sweet peppers and rosemary sauce) while my wife had the "Creamy Lobster Mac & Cheese" (Maine lobster, bacon bits, herbed bread crumb with mixed greens and citrus vinaigrette). We both really enjoyed our food! After the dessert menu came around, we decided to share a delicious "Apple Galette" (local Granny Smith apple, sweet pastry crust, vanilla ice cream). It was a perfect way to end an excellent meal. We really enjoyed our experience at Charlotte's and highly recommend them for anyone visiting Millbrook!

We go to Charlotte's about 4X/yr. This time the food was terrible and made one of us ill. The waitress was OK, but the person who was clearing the table was downright rude. Will not go there again, ever. None of the selections below were even on the menu that eveving.

We had our wedding here. The food was delicious. Alicia and her staff were attentive and friendly. The gardens were in bloom and it was a beautiful day. We received so many compliments from our guests on how much they enjoyed our wedding.
