A colleague and I are in Ft. Lauderdale for a conference. The concierge at our hotel suggested Chuck's for dinner. We hopped in a cab and were soon deposited at the front door. The hostess greeted us immediately and showed us to a booth behind the hostess station. I am a larger person, and as we sat down I looked around to see if we could sit at a table rather than a booth. All the tables appeared to be for groups of 6 people or more. I didn't want to cost the server tip money by having the two of us sit at a table for six, so we just took the booth. The uncomfortable booths are the only negative thing I have to say about Chucks. \r
The server was right there whenever we needed anything, but she was not overly intrusive. The food came out promptly, and both my colleague and I really enjoyed it. I had lemon-pepper mahi mahi with baked potato and a cup of soup. The price was less than $20. \r
When it was time to leave, the hostess offered to call us a cab. We didn't even have to prompt her to make the offer. I think that shows she was observant - she obviously noticed us getting out of the cab when we arrived. \r
All in all, it was a good experience. i would suggest dining there to any of my friends.
Pros: easy access, plentiful portions, reasonable prices
Cons: uncomfortable booths
