    Fish & Shrimp Fry
    Elaine V.

    WE WERE IN A BAD WAY, A REALLY BAD WAY AND REQUIRED SOME SINFUL FRIED FOOD, ON GOOD FRIDAY!!! We had been awake since 4am CST, traveling, so we were exhausted and hungry aka Hangry. As we rolled into Lockhart on our way to our Airbnb (that's another review, stay tuned...), we passed Lil' Charlie's. My Ball and Chain (Ray, he's usually my main star in my reviews, but lately he's been acting like a villain) decided we should probably get a little bite of something, to perk us up! I personally was thrilled when I saw the can of BIG RED!!! I LOVE BIG RED, as much as I love Texas (GOD BLESS TEXAS!!!)! If y'all have never tried Big Red, you're missing an emotional experience!!! Then I started reading the menu and my disposition changed into pure delight! I swear, I became a different gal! They had Fried Okra! I love fried okra and hadn't had it, since I had moved from Texas! I order the Chicken Tender combo w fried okra. The tenders were dipped in Buffalo sauce. The meal was Chicken Tenders For My Soul! Everything was perfectly cooked (fried) and so tasty! The meal ONLY cost $7.00! My husband, Ray (the Villain of this review) ordered the Fish & Shrimp Combo. It looked Great! I didn't try any and I didn't ask if he liked it or not. There's only outside seating and drive thru available for your dining options. It was warm today, so I asked the lil gal working at the counter for a cup of ice to pour my Big Red in. She said, they do not have ice or cups at Lil Charlie's. (WHAT?!?!?! No ice, in Central Texas?!?!) The no ice thing is my only gripe. After 5-6 minutes of trying to eat our food, the flies and bees decided they wanted to dine with us. So, we packed up our stuff and left to eat the rest later in our Airbnb.

    This little food establishment is very convenient for those of you who are on the run. They have a drive thru as well as covered parking being sort of like a drive inn also with outdoor seating . The food is amazing and is just a simple little place with the menu written outside the establishment for easy access. Came here to get some appetizers and I was quite pleased. I ordered the cheese sticks that were so crispy, cheesy, filling, and seasoned so nicely. I was happy with them. I also ordered the pickled spears that were also very yummy. They were also well seasoned. Their ranch dip tasted homemade. They have canned sodas, a variety of delicious foods such as wings, chicken strips, including seafood like fried fish and shrimp. You don't have to wait too long for your order. Again, Lil Charlie's is so convenient if you want to use their drive thru, if you want to sit outdoors, or if you want to park, order your food, and enjoy your meal in your vehicle. The pics don't do any justice. You have to come check out this little gem in Lockhart Texas.

    5 buffalo bone in wings, macaroni , fries and dr p

    Angry that I finished my food so quick because I wanted more . Service was great , very quick and efficient. In my opinion this is what my rating would be from what I've tried today. Buffalo wings - 8/10 Fries - 8/10 Macaroni - 5/10 (would still get again)

    Drive thru .... nice!!

    OMG - we've become regulars here. The Mac n' cheese is soo good! Love the loaded fries. Waffle fries topped with some Mac n' cheese, chicken, RANCH that is so delicious and some buffalo sauce to top it off. Lemon pepper has become my favorite to eat, I'm hooked.

    Not much in the way of looks. Very run down building and parking lot. All outside no curbside must exit vehicle in high temps and wait outside for your order to be called. No plates on outside electrical outlets seem very unsafe. Food is good. Just not a comfortable place to visit. I suggest Sonic to this place.

    The staff is so friendly and the food is made quickly and comes out piping hot (a parent's dream!) I always get the honey bbq tenders.

    I can't believe I've never reviewed this place…read more You literally can't go wrong. I could probably make a meal off of just their appetizers. I've literally never had fried mushrooms at a restaurant that were Portabella. These are to die for but the star of the appetizer menu to me are the fried pickled okra. they are coated in a perfect , cornmeal batter and served with homemade ranch dressing. Now onto the main courses. The burgers are all phenomenal. I have tried three or four of them no matter which one you get, order it Bob's way, which comes with fried onion strings. I usually can't finish a whole burger, but here I make myself finish the burger. No morsel is wasted. I recently tried one of their hotdogs, and I can say it won't be my last. Last but not least, their sides with the burgers cannot be beat. I know it sounds weird to say, but I am not much of a french fry person. Here I want to eat all of them. Their onion rings are equally delicious and their sweet potato chips are unlike anything I've ever gotten of the sweet potato family. Everything is perfectly fried and everything goes good with their homemade ranch. Our girl Wimpy works here and provides the best service to everyone who enters some of us even get a hug when we leave

    This was a great find in Lockhart when not craving BBQ from one of the well-known BBQ spots. The…read moreservice is top notch. Friendly and hospitable. It's a small dive bar with indoor and outdoor seating. They have a good variety of beers on tap and bottles, I think. I only had the ones on tap. The food is great. We had the fried okra (whole pieces) and onion rings, which are delish. Not salty and the batter does not fall off, which is a plus. We also ordered the patty melt, bahn mi burger and boneless wings. We enjoyed them all. Good portions and flavorful. This is our go to in Lockhart when not in a BBQ state of mind.
