New American Restaurants in Lake Charles, LA

“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.“

“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. . .“

“love love love their crawfish! they’re always our go to, but after today meeting the man that was working the drive thru (he may have been the owner, no idea, it’s usually young ladies working drive thru) he was VERY personable and paid extra attention to our daughter in the back seat, i’ll never even think about trying somebody else’s crawfish again (we strayed one time just to see and i was so disappointed 😩🤫) thank yall for offering great size and good prices year after year (we don’t shop for crawfish at all UNTIL they open, we are that serious 😅😂) okay i’m done ty again“

“We played music Bingo here last night. It was so much fun. Our servers were great. The loaded nachos was the best I've ever had, no joke. I can't wait for more music Bingo! It was loud in there, but that's what we came for. Sorry, but I did not like the dirty martini. Something was missing. But I didnt want to waste it.“

“It is always so unbearably cold in there. We bring sweaters etc, but last night I shivered through my meal being unable to enjoy it. And the waiter was rushing us through the meal. Arrived at 515p out by 540p. The food is always delicious but the atmosphere killed it. Very fast loud music, difficult to hold a conversation at the table.“

“Went with a group of friends for an early dinner. Service and food were great! Mrs. Callie stopped by our table to check in and was delightful. She even showed attention to our baby! We will definitely stop back in and hope to converate with her again!!“
