Charly's Thai Restaurant
610-866-3490
Two guys from Spark stumbled across Charly's today on the Southside of Bethlehem on 4th Street between the core business district and the Sands. Evidently, it officially opened about 15 minutes before they stopped in. They were customers #3 and #4. It's take-out only. They gave thumbs up to the chicken satay and fried rice. (I sampled the peanut sauce -- a bit thin, but pleasantly sweet and delicious.) Other offerings include spring rolls, pad Thai (of course), tom yum kai (Thai soup), grilled chicken and Thai chicken salad.
According to the menu, buy more than $10 in food and you get soup for free. That might be challenge: entree prices range from $2.95 to $5.95.
It's near the Valet Tailors, which happens to be one of the best tailors in the region. Time to take some clothes in for altering.

Thanks for posting...thats a big range between central business and the Sands. Any chance you could narrow that down a bit. Is it in 4-Blocks?
I wasn't there myself and there was no address on the take-out menu. I'll try to scope out the location this week.
I love that the 2 guys from Spark "stumbled" there ... sounds like they must be working too hard! LOL.
Charlys is in the old pizza shop location at 4th and Hayes. I went there last night and I have to say I was underwhelmed. I really wanted to like it---the owners were nice and the prices were great, but the food lacked flavor. I had the Satay, Pad thai and shared some spring rolls with my wife who got Thai fried rice. In general it all lacked flavor and my pad Thai was a little more than "al dente" The spring rolls were not fried properly and filled with grease. My wife's words after the meal were "we're never going back there again right?"
Thanks for the report, Robin, and for giving it a try. I'll have to sample the same items to see if I have a comparable experience.
Has anyone else been here?
