    I really want to root for this family that is trying to make this place work , BUT they really need a new chef or to do SOMETHING about the quality and presentation of what they are serving. We have been there 5 times since they opened but have not been back in a couple of years and likely won't until we start hearing some really good things about the place. The steaks are barely ok , nothing special , and can often be cooked wrong. I know that prime is really expensive stuff , but I would be happy to pony up the extra dough if you were to offer it. Sometimes the asparagus is thick and well cooked other times thin and over cooked. The pasta was the most bland and flavorless I have ever had. The timing of food coming out of the kitchen is archaic at best. Dishes arrive for various people at the table at different times and in no special order. Like most restaurants , the coffee was not much more than brown water. The owners are VERY nice people but if they are ever going to make this place work and maybe even make it famous , they are going to have to relent to allowing someone who really knows what they are doing to take over the reigns. Chances are they are hiring family and friends to work there which makes it difficult to be the hard nosed jerk that one must sometimes be to make a restaurant work. I wish them the best. Please improve

    I never thought Picayune would have such a nice restaurant such as Southern Char. The only complaint I had about the food were the hot crab claws. They were very tiny and not very meaty. The steaks and the side dishes were excellent. Just like other reviews, the service is slow. There is a lot of room for improvement in this area. It didn't look they were short handed but a lot of people just standing around watching other people working. If you are willing to wait, the filets are very buttery. It reminds me of Scula's in Houston.

    Better than outback, better than Longhorns!!! Although u can't even compare. Just as good as "Ruth's Chris Steakhouse" if not better. Outstanding customer service. Outstanding STEAK!! Can't say anything negative about this place. Perfect atmosphere for couples. Really lay back. At least I found it to be! BEST STAKE IN PICAYUNE MS.

    This was my second trip to this restaurant. Both times the steak was very good. Everything else is good, not as good as the steaks. I agree with one of the other reviews, it would be nice if the staff was a little more knowledgeable about the menu and if drinks from the bar were a liitle, no a lot quicker to the table. All in all I enjoy the restaurant, more so than the Slidell counterparts. Also, we there Thursdsy night and the music on Thursdays was great.

    Very nice. The side salad is only 1.50. They have a nice wine list. Plus the only place where my steak really was well done!!

    Southern Char does try to stand out as one of the fancier Picayune dining locations, but unfortunately it falls short. Hopefully changes will be made for the better. Service was highly lacking, due in part to two large parties eating there at the same time, which meant smaller parties were forced to wait long times for a server to even come. The glasses are entirely too small for drinks, especially when factoring in how long it took for a waiter to come by. The steaks had potential to be good, but unfortunately, they were colder than supposed to be. Medium-rare does not mean cold in the center. The baked potatoes were very good as a bright side. They need to definitely learn and improve.

    Good atmosphere. Our group had the crab claws and fried green tomatoes appetizers. Both were delicious. Steaks were cooked perfectly and the quality was excellent. Side of au-gratin potatoes was good The chocolate pie was outstanding. Wait staff was adequate and friendly. I live in the area and I'm glad to have this fine new dining option in town.

    I have dined at Southern Char more than three times before writing this review. It's not bad, but unfortunately, it's not good either; therefore, I must give it 2 stars. Now that Picayune has come out of the dark ages, and can legally serve wine and spirits with meals, Picayune residents who imbibe (and there are many) need a nice dependable restaurant where quality food and quality service can be enjoyed along with their favorite beverage. Southern Char management seems to want to provide this, based on my conversations with them, but it has become clear, after more than 3 visits, that the management's standards and expectations are lower than mine. A few tips for improvement: train the staff on how to properly wait tables. Servers need to be more knowledgeable about what's on the menu as well as how menu items are prepared. Timing is everything. Each time I have dined here, I've waited a long time for drink orders and/or salads to be served, and as soon as the salad is served, the entree has been served within a minute or two (bad timing). Keep water glasses filled without guests having to ask for more water, or at least ask guests, in a timely manner, if they would like more water (I always have to ask for more water). The bartender(s) need(s) to learn how to mix drinks properly. None that I have ordered has been prepared properly. Please find a way to keep the temperature of wines at their proper temperature, especially red wines. Serving warm red wine is bad for business and not enjoyable for patrons. Listing "fresh" fish on the menu does not equate to frozen fish that has been thawed and cooked. Nor should vegetables be frozen, thawed, cooked and served. There are plenty of places in Picayune to buy fresh vegetables and fish. If you want Southern Char to truly be a fine dining restaurant, you'll find a way to work these things out. So, it's little things that have added up to an overall forgettable dining experience. I'll give Southern Char another try because I want to support local merchants, and I want Picayune merchants to succeed. I hope management will find this review constructive (that is my intent) and that patrons will add their experiences. I'm tired of driving to adjacent counties to have dinner somewhere nice with wine. I'd rather spend my money in PRC so the city can reap the tax benefit and th4 local merchants excel. Southern Char could be a winner for Picayune, but so far it is not.
