We we're greeted by the beautiful hostess right away and this place was gaining customers by the second so I was happy there was no wait. Our amazing server came right away, and we ordered drinks. The drink menu didn't have much of a variety but the food menu made it for it. I had wine and my wife had a baybreeze (I believe that's the name). We order the Oysters Supreme and it was so dang good. My wife loves oysters and I am a newbie when it comes to eating them ( this was my second time in my life) and I was blown away! It was sooooo good. Then we shared an entree, called the Shuckin' Flounder. Talk about delicious!!! My favorite was the bread pudding. We took it to go and I loved that there was a note with bread pudding to give you instructions on heating annnnnddd to brag on how good it is. It did not disappoint!!! It was just as amazing at home as it was if it would have eaten it at the restaurant. I was skeptical because of this place because of the choice in seating (once again we come from restaurants and service) and there was a fan behind me but I must say, we thoroughly enjoyed our time here. The menu is a bit pricey but it's oysters and seafood! We will absolutely be back! Thank you all for such a great evening!

Service and ambiance are great and as expected. Had the…read moreduck gumbo which was dark and elevated vs regular gumbo. The shrinp poor boy was good also but bread needs to be toasted more. The rice and beans were good but luke warm so took away from the experience The highlight for me was the ettoufee. It was the best I had in a very long time. Creamy and decadent. But again not hot enough. So overall could've been a 10 but with food not hot it was an 8.5

Overall great flavor though the grits were very dry like they had been baked on the plate and had a crispy crust on the outside. They tasted good, but I wasn't expecting that texture. My mom ordered the flounder with cream sauce and sides of potato salad & mashed sweet potatoes. She said she really enjoyed it. They also served a bread basket of thinly sliced salted garlic bread before the meal. We ordered a slice of the chocolate doberge cake to take home which seemed a bit more like French silk chocolate pie with a chocolate cake bottom. Tasted delicious & very rich. Our waitress was very friendly. Plenty of parking spaces outside. They have a large bar area too so seems like it would be a fun happy hour spot after work.

I've been coming to Charlie's seafood restaurant for years, and I stop by for my regular dish…read moreeverytime I'm here: kung pao shrimp. It's perfect everytime, and the broccoli is always perfect. I wish they'd share their sauce recipe so I can make it at home. They're always friendly when I come, and one time they even gave me a free gift that was like a keepsake from their culture. The fried shrimp are always big and juicy, and I think it does what it's supposed to do. = I usually use their drive thru, which has always been pretty fast for me. They'll have you park ahead and wait if you food is still being prepared, which isn't bad for me. Just means it's being fried fresh. The inside seems pretty basic and a normal ambiance, although I've seen a couple people have odd encounters. I don't know, I tend to keep things pretty simple, but others find themselves in arguments with the workers. Maybe the customer service isn't great, but like I said, my order is usually simple and I tend to drive through, so maybe the simplicity shields me from unfavorable customer service, as I don't have order modifications or special requests. I'll still be coming everytime I'm in Louisiana to get the same dish I loved since high school. Love me some Charlie's!

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.

Definitely coming back for another round.

We had the shrimp poboy and fries- which we split between two people and were plenty full. They have Cajun seasoning, hot sauce and plenty of napkins on the tables. You can eat indoor or outdoor. Plenty of drink selections!! The place is clean and you can even watch the fryers through a window. We had a poboy in New Orleans a few weeks before and it was no comparison to the one we had at Old Tyme--filled with large shrimp and plenty of them. We would detour here again. It is not a grocery store anymore...but a darn good place to eat. Lots of college vibes for the local university as well. Nice bathrooms that have funny decorations for him and her.
