Charkol

Charkol is a steakhouse on South Street in Freehold that cooks its meat in a wood-fired oven. The site says the oven burns oak and cherrywood, which gives each cut a charred crust, and the menu leans toward traditional steakhouse fare with a more modern touch.

It is a BYOB restaurant with lunch and dinner service, and reservations can be made online. The restaurant also offers gift cards and hosts private events. Hours run through the afternoon and evening, with later closing on Thursday through Saturday.
