$10 for a huge ribeye with potatoes and salad? Yes that's a special - not sure which day(s). Can you have it your way, medium rare? No you can't. They need those juices for the potato, but it's $10, pretty tender, still way better than rubber sirloin or strip, and definitely rib-eye. I'll give Charlie's a 5.0 if they let us change level it's cooked for $2 and throw butter to compensate for lost juices. Either way, it's $10, I'll be back, and they have seafood as well.
Great sea food worth the drive. Dont eat the crackers, lots of food. Family oriented frequented by locals. Great place! Crab balls, fried crab, crab cakes, its all there! Good gumbo!
Best Fried Catfish!. Since I've lived my entire life in Southern Louisiana, I think of myself as a big time seafood lover and do know good or bad seafood when it's served to me. At a recent visit to Charlie's I had the #2 fried seafood combo (catfish, shrimp, oysters & stuffed crab). The fried catfish was 1st rate, never had better (forget about that over inflated place up the street in Manchac, this fried catfish will beat anyone in N.O.)! Fried shrimp was nice sized and wonderfully seasoned, the fried oysters were a little dry and small but still flavorful and the stuffed crab was excellent and prepared the old fashioned way in the actual crab shell (not that tinfoil thing) with a perfect blend of seasoning. But back to the catfish...extremely fresh, fried to order (does take a little extra time, but isn't that what you came here far?), perfectly seasoned/battered and a good thickness (I like thicker fillets...not that thin stuff that seems like nothing but fried batter) and most importantly...greaseless! Next visit I'll do either the catfish/shrimp combo or just a platter full of that wonderful fried catfish, yes indeed!!
