    We are new to the area and I have found my new favorite restaurant. I cannot say enough good things about this place! It was outstanding in every way! The best part was the service and the ambiance with the piano player/singer who was amazing! The food was first rate and kudos to the entire staff because they take pride in what they do. My husband and I look forward to our next dining experience at this top-notch restaurant!!!

    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 on April 15, 2025
    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.
