Had a reservation for 10 at the dinner rush. Jason our server was awesome. Our drinks were always full. The shrimp angel was awesome. The cheesecake was delicious.

We arrived and the hostess was doing everything she could to please the customers as they were short on wait staff. However, once e we were seated, the food and drinks were amazing. This was the second time I’ve ever tried shrimp and grits, and today blew my mind. The smoked Gouda and bacon with it was like heaven in my mouth. Then, while visiting of course, I had to try the gumbo. The chef accommodated my request since it was 9am and it was so delicious.

Right in the heart of downtown Lake Charles lies Pujo's. A nice café with plenty of dining options. Drinks and appetizers while watching the sun set. Perfect!

Recently had lunch and gave a speech to a group, at Pujo St Cafe. What a great place! You can enjoy a really relaxed place with a great meal or just visit with friends over a drink.

The Brussels sprouts special was incredible, along with the gumbo and sticky ribs. Po boy was just okay, but will definitely return to try more delicious food. Very cool building, nice patio, local art for sale on the walls.

Very nice atmosphere, even the outside seating has fans and coverings so its a pleasure. Service was very attentive, helpful, and kind. Food looked and tasted amazing. Would be happy to try many other dishes from here!

I have yet to have a bad meal there. The burgers are juicy and flavorful and crab cakes are the best that I’ve personally ever had. You definitely have to try the Maryland Benedict - it’s eggs Benedict but with crab cakes instead of English muffins. 20/10!

Pujo's offers a very inviting atmosphere with an amazing ambience. Our visit was for a Saturday brunch and found it to be a very family oriented eating establishment. It provides a numerous amount of seating arrangements including an outdoor weather protected area with a very calm and relaxing atmosphere. The indoor area has ample seating even for large groups. They even provide a private special event room. There was very little wait time. With a centrally located bar. Our waitress's name was Sydney. She was so charming, witty and engaging, while meeting our every need. I would highly recommend her as she would certainly be an excellent waitress request. The food is outstanding! I had the 3 egg omelet with onions,green bell peppers,mushrooms,tomatoes and cheese. My husband had the Pujo Banana French Toast and my Son had the Contraband Benedict with Amaratto raspberry cheesecake. Perfect coffee and Orange juice. You will not go away hungry.
Wanted this to be a staple restaurant for when we come out of town but… As I so wanted to give this place another shot with the rest of my family because of the feedback from my other post.
Unfortunately missed the mark again but worse, my family’s food looked delicious, I decided on their “signature” burger and told the waitress very specifically I wanted very very well done because I can’t tolerate any red meat. I had to sit and dig out the pink and didn’t end up finishing it due to feeling sick to my stomach. My family wanted refills on coffee, water and sauces but it took so long they ended up finishing their food, before we were able to even ask again for it. I ended up having to get up and let the gentleman know we do not need those items because we were ready to check out and even getting our check took forever. I have no idea what happened to our waitress but we didn’t end up seeing her till the end of our check, no refills or asking if we needed anything after the coffee and sauces after that she was pretty much gone for 30min+.
I’m sorry the atmosphere was great but the people in charge of the tables need some help. 8/2/25 @ 11:00am

We were passing through town on our way to Florida and were very pleasantly surprised by the delicious food and gracious service. They accommodated our dogs on the patio and with the fans it was comfortable cool. Reasonably priced. Definitely recommend!

Best food and drinks in Lake charles. I really enjoy the outside seating area, makes you feel like you are in Europe.

Delicious and fair price . Quick and friendly service. I think that the name of the sandwich was the Paux Boy with a substitute of Provolone cheese.

Just picked up a to go order of desserts for an afternoon pick me up and it was perfect! Creme brulle was excellent although fresh berries would have made it even better.
