re: Restaurants- Lake Charles/Sulphur

Chastain's for seafood. Great oysters, raw and fried. Decent blackened red snapper. Good gumbo.

Mazen's for steaks.

Steamboat Bill's will, if it hasn't already been mentioned, will show up in this thread. It's decent but it's way overpriced for what you get.

Darrell's is good. The jalapeño mayo is awesome.

You can get some great plate lunches at Ball's Fried Chicken. Not sure how much seafood they serve though.

I've heard more negative reviews than positive about A-Mazen's seafood. I've never eaten there so I can't say how good it is personally.

Too bad Nina P's is down for now. They have some great stuff.

Just my suggestion, but I'd head to Chastain's on Ryan if you're looking for seafood, like I mentioned. Good fried crab claws too.
