We were seated right away. Staff seemed friendly enough. We ordered two appetizers the eggplant fries and Mile high onion rings. First off I'm not sure why they call them Mile high they are not presented in any such way they are just thin cut onion rings in a bowl. Ours came out very greasy and very undercooked we sent them back and the second batch of them came out somewhat better but still onion was not fully cooked. Eggplant fries were killer.The entrees were excellent all around. Everything was very fresh top notch quality. They may have been shorthanded because we had a little bit of trouble keeping our drinks full. We were also a little bit surprised/angry at a $7 charge just for paying with a credit card. They did not tell us anything about this up front when we got there. With the prices they already charge I don't think they need the extra $7 just for paying with a credit card. When we are spending $200 in the place I don't think that's necessary. I can see it maybe on a smaller order for just a single person or something like that.Also on the create your own seafood platter we did shrimp and oysters it did say that oysters were market price but when we got the bill we were charged for the regular price of a two item seafood platter plus an extra $13 on top of the regular market price for the oysters. I know the market price fluctuates but if it's going to be the regular up charge for oysters plus an additional $13 I think they should tell you up front when you're only getting five to six oysters you end up paying about $5 per oyster. So basically a platter that just had shrimp and oysters ended up costing $31.thsts more than the cost of the entire chef Roy or full seafood platter which is a...
Read moreGreat Dinner. Chef Roy's is located just off if I-10 but set back and hard to see. It is just north of I-10 on the left side just before the Days Inn. The clerk at the Best Western Motel recommended it. I wanted a good Louisianna Seafood dinner and I was not disappointed. I ordered the seafood platter grilled (You have a choice of fried or grilled) and it was great! The platter consisted of 6 small shrimp, stuffed shrimp, 3 or 4 oysters, crab cake, blackened catfish fillet, and a frog leg. The platter included a very good salad (the ranch dressing was great) and bread. For a slight up-charge I had the eggplant fries - they were not only different, but good. My server, Ashley, did a great job, she was courteous, helpful and efficient. The dinner, with a unsweet tea was $34.36 before gratuity - which is a good value. The owner came through the dining room to see how everyone was enjoying their dinner. He seemed to know many of the patrons, which led me to believe that this is a local place. If you find yourself in Rayne - I highly...
Read moreI have to share a disappointing experience my son and his friends had on Sat night for their CPHS junior HOCO. They made reservations to eat at Chef Roy’s in Rayne, La at 6:30pm. They were on time and they had to wait almost 2 hours just to receive the food they ordered. When asked, the server just would say “yours is next to come out”. Large tables that were seated after theirs were served before these kids. The school locks the doors at 9pm for this dance. They had to take their food to go. When I called and spoke to Robert at Chef Roy’s the following day, he said that he would look into it and that I needed to understand that they were very busy. The problem I have is he knew the kids had to be at school by 9pm. They were still charged full price for the meals they had to take to go and couldn’t eat until after the dance. I find this totally unacceptable. I won’t be recommending this restaurant to...
