“If you’re craving some real Cajun flavor, this spot is where it’s at! The atmosphere is very warm and welcoming, I am always immediately greeted with smiles and hellos from the sweetest employees! These girls are the definition of southern charm! The food is amazing, I have never had anything I did not LOVE. You have to try the crawfish bread which is my personal favorite. Portions are amazing and this is definitely a must-try if you want some down-home Cajun goodness or a home cooked meal without the hassle!“

Beef Carpaccio

“******Highly Recommend ****^ My 87 year old mother, my sister in law and I had lunch at Augustine’s today at their grand opening. The lunch was fantastic! We started with delicious appetizers-crab claws in butter, onion soup, and truffle fries with Parmesan cheese. Absolutely delicious. We then enjoyed the fried oyster salad with cornbread bread crumbs (yummy!) and the chicken flatbread with balsamic vinegar and I think honey. You had to roll us out of the door as we ate every bite! I really encourage Lake Charles to support this new, locally owned and operated restaurant in downtown Lake Charles!!! Mary Shaddock Jones“

“I celebrated my 18-year anniversary at Ember Grill & Wine Bar and had an outstanding experience from start to finish. The atmosphere was upscale yet comfortable, making it the perfect place for a special occasion. The food was excellent, the beverage selection was impressive, and everything was prepared perfectly.

What really made the evening exceptional was our waiter, Trey. He was incredibly attentive, friendly, and professional throughout the entire dinner. He made us feel welcomed, checked on us consistently without being overbearing, and truly helped make our anniversary celebration memorable.

If you’re looking for a great date night spot or somewhere to celebrate a special occasion, I highly recommend Ember Grill & Wine Bar. We’ll definitely be back.“
