Okay but the chargrilled oysters at The Chimes?? Yeah... they ate DOWN ‍…read more They came out hot, buttery, and loaded with that garlicky goodness. The cheese was melted perfectly on top and the oysters themselves were super fresh -- not fishy at all. I was literally scraping the plate for the extra sauce because it was THAT good. Service was quick and the vibe was chill, which made the whole experience even better. If you go to The Chimes and don't order the chargrilled oysters... what are you even doing?? Definitely coming back for another round.

The taste was still good! I ordered the seafood pasta too but wasn't fond of the fishy smell and taste. The sauce was thin and runny as well. The little French bread that comes with the meal is delicious and I'm not a bread eater! The packaging and service is very safe and clean! Yes, I recommend this place! Cheers!

The burger was delicious & fresh and the tostado was so pretty when it arrived! Tasted good too! French fries were crispy! The lavender lemonade is a must have but not on the menu so you'll have to ask for it! There's outside seating for pretty days! Yes, I recommend this place! Cheers!

If you are in Lafayette, Central Pizza & Bar is worth making time for…read more The Central wings are some of the best I have had, and I do not say that lightly. They have a slightly sweet flavor that sets them apart, but it works. I usually balance it out with a Voodoo pizza, which is a great pairing and rounds out the meal well. The menu has a lot of solid options, but the wings are what keep me coming back. Every time I am in Lafayette, this is a stop I make. Consistently good food and a place that is easy to return to. Definitely a favorite for my daughter and I.

The ambiance strikes the ideal balance between upscale and comfortable, making it a wonderful place to enjoy great food and even better company. A special thank you to our server, Emily, who made our experience exceptional. She was incredibly informative, genuinely kind, attentive, and had impeccable timing throughout the evening. Her knowledge of the menu and thoughtful recommendations made us feel like valued guests. She truly embodies what outstanding hospitality should be. The food was absolutely phenomenal. Every dish arrived hot, beautifully prepared, and served at just the right pace, allowing us to savor each course without ever feeling rushed. We shared the Bacon Wrapped Dates, Ciabatta Loaf, Escargot, Roasted Beet & Smoked Goat Cheese, Fried Calamari, Charbroiled Oysters, and the Mac-N-Smoked Gouda. Each plate was bursting with flavor and showcased the kitchen's attention to detail. The charbroiled oysters were a standout--rich, buttery, perfectly seasoned, and cooked to perfection. From the sweet and savory richness of the bacon-wrapped dates to the creamy, smoky indulgence of the Mac and smoked Gouda, every bite was memorable. The cocktails were just as impressive. The Strawberry Mule was refreshing with the perfect balance of sweetness and spice, while the Plum Crazy was creative, smooth, and beautifully crafted. Outstanding food, exceptional service, and an inviting atmosphere--Pamplona continues to set the bar for fine dining in Lafayette. This visit reminds us why it's one of our new favorite restaurants. We left already looking forward to our next visit. Thank you, Emily, for making an already incredible meal truly unforgettable!

We really enjoyed the duck fat fries and the beef carpaccio salad but the $4 happy hour drinks had the best value.

A huge shoutout to Issac and Emily for making our night special as we will definitely be back to try more things!
