    Our favorite restaurant in Lafayette. Consistent quality in food and attention of a well managed team account for this rating. My favorite salad Bluesiana partnered with the heavenly crab cake on the current bed of squash and edamame completes a perfect dining experience.

    The Gumbo was delicious. The Martini was smaller than usual.
    Charley G's Seafood GrillResponded 7 days ago
    Thank you so much for your review Dr. Michael! As a valued guest, we appreciate your feedback. After talking with our management team, they shared that the night you dined with us we were low on martini glasses and used a coup glass for your martini. We would love to make it up to you with a complimentary martini on your next visit to Charley G's! Our management team has also restocked our supply of martini glasses so that it won't happen again! Thank you again for sharing your feedback with us.

    We would give this place a 10 based on a max scale of 5. From 2 foodies that are highly critical of our dining experiences, Charley G’s went off the charts. Upscale dining at its best. We had a first reservation as we were headed to a concert. Terrific libations to start. Escargot appetizer with Salmon and Sea Bass entrees. Everything and everyone were spectacular. Thank you Chad and your support staff. Also the front end manager followed up with each table checking on satisfaction. We will return.

    Food was exceptional as always! Service was excellent. I’m never looking to take food home with me, being able to share a meal really opens the menu.
