11 Best American Restaurants in Lake Charles

“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!“

“Great restaurant with excellent service and delicious food. Highly recommend.“

“I ate at Calla Wednesday night and I have to say it was probably one of the best meals I've ever had at any restaurant in Lake Charles. I got one of the power bowls and I highly recommend it!“

“Best onion rings, ever. . .“

“The best hamburger ever ! The onion rings and sweet potato fries really good also💕“

“******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“

“Eat here at least once a week. Food and staff never disappoint.“

“Mrs. Pam hooked us up with the best sandwich trays for our super bowl party. Everything was fresh and really delicious 😋“

“I love KD'S. Their food is amazing. It's very inexpensive and they also give you a good bit of food, which is really great. Nowadays you don't get much food for your money.“

“Listening to music live band Rusty Metoyer & The Zydeco Krush“

“We had a great experience dining here on 6/3/23. The dozen oysters on the half shell were very tasty. My husband had the catfish and commented on how it was the best he has had in a very long time. I had the burger and fries and it was absolutely delicious! Thanks for accommodating all my food allergies. It’s difficult but you all really tried and I appreciate it very much. Finally, we had great service from Brook and enjoyed eating on the patio. Keep up the great work. Food service is a grueling job but you all did it so effortlessly!“
