Lagunas Mexican Grill & Cantina

This was hands down one of the worst restaurant experiences I’ve ever had. From the moment we walked in, the place felt dirty and poorly maintained. While we were eating, I could hear rats running around in the ceiling, and to make things worse, there were roaches crawling under our table. It was absolutely disgusting.

The servers didn’t seem to care at all no smiles, no effort to make us feel welcome, and the service was slow even though the place wasn’t busy. When the food finally came out, it was a huge disappointment. Everything tasted stale, bland, and greasy, as if it had been sitting out for hours.

I’m shocked this place is still open with conditions like this. I wouldn’t recommend it to anyone not for the food, not for the service, and definitely not for the cleanliness.

A fun place off of the water. Great atmosphere and design even down to the logo. The food was good but not stand out. The staff was good.

Margaritas were great! The food...not so much. It was eatable but lacked any flavor/seasoning.

Went in around 3pm the restaurant was slow, maybe 4 tables already there eating. Sat down waited 10 minutes before someone took our drink order. Waiting another 5-10 minutes before flagging the server down to just pay for our drinks. 20 minutes sitting with no chips, salsa, or being able to order even queso. Seems petty for the post, but the server literally gave us drinks and went to sit in a booth. We drove into town to specifically eat here, so it was a huge disappointment.

This is in my humble opinion the best place for Mexican food in Lake Charles. Jenny our waitress was the best. Friendly and great service. The food is excellent. Best Chile Relleno I’ve ever had.

This was the best Mexican food I’ve ever had. The bartender recommended the 24k gold margarita and it was one of the best margaritas I ever had, I had 2. I also had the Juarez, a combination of chimi, taco, and enchiladas. So bomb!!!

Service is always good here. The quesadilla is my favorite, specifically the brisket quesadilla. Plenty of menu options - all typical Mexican fare, including options for kids.
