“This is my go to for my “soul food” “down home””southern cooking” location whenever I go to Lake Charles! The variety of options each day on the menu always makes my heart jump for joy!!! Definitely recommended as a must try restaurant!! The only downside is that they are closed on Mondays since they are an event center on weekends and need a day to get the place back in order for their beloved customers who are loved and treated like family. (Did I mention how much I LOVE this place already? 😁) The staff makes you feel like you’re at home with family!!! Just go try it out, I’m sure you’ll be happy you did!!“

“1000/10. Great food and great atmosphere!!!“
