    I had the fried catfish and shrimp with greens. Every single bite was delicious. There's no talking at the tables because you're waiting to get to that next bite. While someone restaurants give you shrimp the size of gold fish, their shrimp is big and the flavor is bigger. This is a MUST GO TO and MUST RETURN TO restaurant. Do yourself a "flavor" and pull up to Louisiana Charlie's San Diego.

    The food was wonderful, very well. Seasoned could have given a little bit more food in the gumbo. It was shredded chicken and sausage, and we got 3 shrimp jumbo size though. We got more liquid than we did food, but I'm going to tell you. It was still delicious The seafood boil. Was excellent The jambalaya was wonderful, and the Fried shrimp and greens was out of this world and the Mac and cheese. My husband had the Mac and cheese, and he said it was great. He doesn't compliment everyone's Mac and cheese, so it had to be good and I had some and it was great. This is a restaurant that I know. I'm going to return to.

    I came here late to get some beignets, they were awesome. While coming for the beignets I saw they had a working smoker so I decided to come the next day for ribs. The food was very good and the portions are massive. I got Mac and Cheese and Potato Salad for sides and both were delicious. The employees are also very nice. I think I'm eating every meal here until I leave San Diego this weekend.
