I am going to Lake Charles, where do I eat?

A buddy told me about a good hamburger place that is around the courthouse but I am thinking seafood. What do y'all recommend?

Seafood Palace has good casual seafood. Mazen's does a good job with fish in a nicer atmosphere.

Luna Grill on Ryan St is near the courthouse.

Darrell's. That is all.
Nicer places La Truffe Sauvage and Mazen's.
Steamboat Bill's for boiled crawfish.

Lake Charles isn't as lacking as some people try to make it sound:
Darrell's: Great sandwich (the shrimp po boy ain't bad)
Seafood: I like Steamboat Bill's for laid-back, down-home stuff. Some like Seafood Palace. I'm not that big a fan.
Pronia's: A good muffaletta, although I haven't eaten there in a LONG time.
Mazens is really good. Haven't tried La Truffe Sauvage so I have no comment.
For a place that catches grief, the core local places -- Darrell's for sandwiches, Pronia for muff's, Mazen's for casual/fine dining and steamboat Bill's for seafood market/inexpensive, very casual in-house dining -- are all pretty legit. Good boudin down that way too. More ricey than the Lafayette boudin, so it comes down to preference in that regard. I kind of like it a little ricey because, frankly, the quality of the meat in the boudin is usually a little suspect, so I'd just as soon it come with a bit more rice.

Daryl's is good from personal experience. I would also recommend Steamboat Bill's if you're looking for seafood.

Cottens is the only correct answer here

Darrell's for a good po boy.
Luna's downtown has great food. I love the steak and the Luna Tuna.
Seafood palace on Enterprise Blvd. is really good. Their catfish is really good, gumbo is great, you really can't go wrong there. It's casual.
Steamboat Bill's, either on Broad & Hwy 14 or downtown near the lake, right next to I-10. It's good too but it's kinda pricey for what you get.
There's a place downtown near the courthouse, may have been what your buddy was telling you about, called Sha-Sha's. I was there once and wasn't impressed. I'd steer clear of it.
There's a place across the street from the mall on Prien Lake Road called A-mazen Seafood, the owners also own a steakhouse called Mazen's, hence the funny spelling. I heard mixed things about it. Never personally been there.
Mr. Bill's seafood on McNeese St. isn't too bad. It's across the street from the campus of McNeese. Very casual.
Personally, I'd go to either Seafood Palace (for the seafood). You can get a good burger pretty much anywhere from the chain places.
All Darrell's has are sandwiches. They're good, but that's all they have, not a lot to pick from. Their jalapeno mayo is great though.
