Amazing pizza experience. I tried the chicken shawarma pizza at Lux Plates and Pours and it was…read moretruly exceptional. The crust was perfect. The toppings were generous and flavorful. They actually let me choose some extra toppings. And the combination of chicken shawarma, mushrooms, caramelized onions, spinach, jalapenos, special crema and queso fresca was a game changer. The service was also top notch. I would highly recommend this pizza to anyone looking for a unique pizza experience. There's nothing like it in Southwest Louisiana. Not to mention the good vibes. I wish i would've taken a picture, but we ate it up so fast. It's a must if you're in Lake Charles.

Aside from that, the overall experience was very enjoyable.

It's a super awesome setup with ample parking and great walk up. We had premade reservations via Open Table. They aren't required but we did just in case they were busy. Our server was Megan, who made great recommendations and was super helpful. (Ask for her!) Anywho... We ordered Parmesan crusted fries to start with me having the Barrel and Bough for a starter drink, and Honey had a Lake front Lager. He described it as being light and delicious. The Barrel and Bough was chefs kiss... a welcome spin on my favorite Old Fashioned. He ordered the I-10 Smash Burger with a truffle Fries, and I went for the chicken and sausage gumbo, with a side of brown butter mashed potatoes. The meal was excellent. Honey wasn't super impressed with the smash burger, but it was great presentation with good flavor. I, however, devoured my gumbo. It was the perfect blend with spice but a hint of sweet. Reminded me of my mother's gumbo and that's hard to beat!!!! We finished the meal with a cup of coffee. We got cans of Fruit Stand blend to go, and we loved it. We will for sure be back for more trips to enjoy their delish faire of foods. It is seafood heavy but there are options for vegans and burgers available as well. Overall... chefs kiss and a salute to the chef!

We drove to Lake Charles with the intention of visiting a different establishment. However, due to…read moretheir limited hours, we weren't able to visit this time around. While looking for a backup, I came across this place. I was surprised to find that they provided a variation of counter service instead of table service. We ordered at the counter, received a number and the staff later brought the food to us. However, with the beer, we ordered at a different counter and brought it back to the table ourselves. This was a while back, so I'm not sure if things have changed since then. Seating was available indoors (2 levels) and outdoors, complete with live music. We ordered the eagle wings & fries, margherita pizza and pretzels & beer cheese. The chicken wings were dry and the pizza crust was less than desirable. The pretzels were salty, but better once the salt was dusted off. The beer cheese was interesting but not my favorite. Overall, I didn't care for the food. The atmosphere was lively, but I wouldn't return just for that. There's 26 photos that should post with this review.

I…read morearrived at peak time on Saturday it seemed since the parking lot was packed, and once inside, also packed. It took a few mins to clean the last open table. The menus are on the table but you really don't need a menu here since there are only a few items. Everyone comes here for po-boys obviously and they have a few to choose from. The top 2 choices are the most common, the special and the surf and turf. To me, what makes a good po-boy, is the bread....like many other sandwiches. If you have great bread, you're usually making a good sandwich. I tried the small special, while the rest of the table tried either the special or surf and turf. They don't have a formal kids menu, but they just have either PB&J or grilled cheese. We tried the grilled cheese. My fav ended up being the surf and turf due to it being cleaner to eat and more variety of taste and texture between the bread. I liked the special, but I forgot to ask the server to remove the American cheese, so it made it taste funny and would have been better without it.

Brett and Logan gave me the lowdown on the history of Pat's (rebuild following hurricane/s) while mixing up a decent Old Fashioned.

Nevertheless, all was good and tasty. A mid-upscale vibe present as many guests seemed to be well dressed and celebrating. Looking forward to sampling more of the menu.

The Waffle Fries were a large portion, nicely seasoned and perfectly fried. I tried the Fries with the Smauce and did not like it and would prefer just plain ketchup next time which is unusual for me since I usually like mayo based sauces for my fries over just ketchup. It was okay dipping the Slider in it, but not for every bite. Next time, I would just try plain ketchup for the Sliders too. The Shake was so awesome I almost sucked the whole thing down while sitting at the window waiting for the food to come out. They served the Shake with a straw that had an oversized opening which meant the cookies did not get stuck in the straw. Basically, everything I tasted was 5*'s except the Smauce which is no biggie. Lol
