Great food and genuinely friendly service.
I tried the fish, wings, collard greens, and sweet potatoes—and oh my goodness, everything was absolutely delicious. This is true southern soul food: comforting, perfectly seasoned, and cooked with care.
The portion was generous—enough for a full meal, I had half and had leftovers for a second round. If you’re craving something hearty, flavorful, and soul-warming, this spot is definitely worth a visit.

The catfish is amazing, and the kids love the chicken strips. Great service, and all around good food.

Food is literally a hit or miss, Macaroni & cheese taste very watered down, but other times in the past it was pretty good..fish is never really crispy more like a soft fry , great for the elderly

I want to give a HUGE SHOUT OUT to JESSICA M. She is so sweet, kind, and endearing! I held her line up so many questions and when I came to the window, she wasn’t agitated by me!

Jessica assured me about foods that I would be willing to try was good which didn’t disappoint! All the main entries (proteins) are DELICIOUS! The sides are great as well as long as you catch them at the right time of day/evening.

AGAIN: SHOUT OUT TO BEAUTIFUL JESSICA! đŸ„°

Had a fly in my food. Good thing I seen it before I took my first bite. Used to eat here faithfully now...

$110 down the drain on 2 family meals and a shrimp meal. Everything was cold. Fries weren't even done, we had to put them in the air fryer with the fish. Had to warm up all of the sides. It was a huge disappointment.

I was just told about Charlie D's by a couple named Kathy and Lev. My sister and I visited to sample one of the lunch specials: fried Swai with 2 small sides (out of lots of tempting side dishes). It's very casual dining. I enjoyed the Service and Atmosphere so much because of the staff and the friendliness of the other diners!

I always enjoyed sweet potatoes đŸ„”, greens, Potatoe Salad đŸ„— and wonderful Catfish. Especially đŸ”„ đŸ„” hotsauce. I always miss the 🍑 peach cobbler when they have it. I hope you have it someti.e soon.

I have been passing this place for awhile but my brother said it was really good and flavorful. So I went and ordered the Basa and got the red beans and rice. It was really good and tasty. The red beans and rice were on point, fish seasoned just right. I would recommend

Came here with a friend for the first time today after hearing about it through the grapevine. The guy behind the counter and the cook were really cool! From the way they talked about the food, i knew it was good! The cook explained how everything was made in-house and fresh! The guy behind the counter gave his suggestions! I got the catfish dinner, and my friend got the chicken and fish dinner! Everything slapped đŸ”„đŸ‘Œ i knew it would from the passion of the cook. No frills here, just delicious food and awesome helpful staff!

The atmosphere looks and feels like fast food but that is totally misleading. The food took us right back to New Orleans. We had the shrimp boil and butterfly shrimp entrees. Definitely would do both again!
