We got the Hudson and Jambalaya grits with fried fish. The boudin in the Hudson is one of the yummiest boudin I've had. And the bacon maple jam made the flavor even more complex. Topped with gravy and shrimp - chef kiss I also enjoyed the grits a lot. I broke the crispy fried fish into bits and mixed into the grits. The texture is simply amazing. Service is super good. Everyone is so welcoming. It feels like very home-y place. Hope this helps!

Must have milk with breakfast. No milk!! 9am on a Sunday morning, what!? No milk!? Sorry couldn't stay and try it. Doesn't a breakfast place need milk?! I'll try again when in the area.

Everything that came out of the kitchen looked delicious making us question our decisions, but at the end everyone was happy with their choice. Be aware that Sundays are quite busy so plan accordingly.

OMGGGG!!! I absolutely loved this place!…read more This is my go-to spot every time we visit Lake Charles. It has everything you could ask for--delicious food, excellent service, and a beautiful, aesthetic café vibe. The place is always packed, which says a lot about the quality of both the food and the experience. Every visit has been consistently amazing. They also have a rewards program where you can earn and redeem points, which is a nice bonus. Definitely a must-visit if you're in Lake Charles!

We were seated and taken care of- but then waited almost an additional hour for food. We arrived at 6:30 and didn't eat until almost 8:30- which was a little frustrating. Again- I realize it was a Friday night, but have had much better experiences at the downtown location. I also got the Maui Salmon (my Go To!) and the shrimp wasn't peeled properly, but that's just me being extra picky. It was good, just very slow service.

It's the kind of place you go for a nice dinner, date night, or when you just want to slow down and enjoy a full meal. The Eats We started with drinks - my husband had The Italiano, which was smooth and well-balanced, and I went with a Hedges Family Wine, which paired nicely with dinner. For the meal: My husband had a house salad and the pan-seared fish, which was cooked well and complemented by the kind of rich, flavorful sauces they're known for. I went with the wedge salad and the surf & turf, and listen...this is where they shine. The surf & turf is a standout - steak paired with seafood and a bold, flavorful sauce that leans into that fusion they're known for. Everything came out well-prepared, plated nicely, and felt like a complete dining experience rather than just a quick meal. The Service Service was attentive and polished without being overbearing. Drinks stayed filled, courses came out at a comfortable pace, and the staff made sure everything flowed smoothly. It matched the overall feel of the restaurant - thoughtful and consistent. Parting Thoughts Between the cocktails, the wine, and standout dishes like the surf & turf, it delivers a well-rounded experience. Definitely a solid choice for a nice night out in Lake Charles - and one I'd return to when I'm in the mood for something a little more elevated.

Upon entering we were met with the cutest sci-fi / star wars themed room. I immediately noticed that they are inclusive to all, and appreciated that deeply. I ordered an iced pumpkin latte with oat milk, and my boyfriend ordered a black and white frozen latte. We would both rate our cof drinks a 7/10. I feel mine would have been better if I got the cold foam but I was worried they couldn't do that with oat milk. We also got a bagel and some beignets. The bagel was good, the cream cheese comes separate in a container and you spread it yourself. Beignets were also decent. The barista that helped us was kind. We will be back since I wanted to try " The Froth Awakens".

The pancakes had such a good flavor, might be a touch of vanilla and the bacon was fried just right...crispy. Best thing, which a lot of places which serve breakfast don't do was the little pod of SOFT butter. Too many places give you ice cold butter to spread on your toast or biscuit or pancake. Like the atmosphere, too.

I give a 3 only because the manager was nice about it…read more Such a bad experience though. Not anyone's fault really, maybe. My bf and I arrived around 9pm, ordered ourselves a burger each because we were STARVING!! We are pretty patient people, so we waited and waited. 30mins go by and still nothing, the guy that ordered after us got his food. We asked and she said she'll check on it. A moment later, maybe 9:40pm or 9:50pm ish, the same girl that took our order said they were short staffed and it will take a bit longer and apologized. It's about 10pm ish now and the manager comes and apologize and explained the situation. The girl that took our order forgot to send the dam ticket to the kitchen this whole time... apparently she's in "training". Manager was very apologetic and told us our options for a refund or a reimbursement through drinks... Ma'am I'm trying to chow down a hefty burger not liquor. Shoutout to Bisou Lounge/Lux Plates & Pours for having their kitchen open late. My bf and I are just nice people and it sucks because we could've crashed out and caused a scene. I think that would be a normal reaction though because you got customers waiting a mf hour just to say y'all can't make the food anymore because the kitchen is closed and now you gotta give them their money back. If I was the cashier, I would've just went back there and whipped up a burger because it was my fault. Other than that, place seems like a cool chill bar, and they have nice staff:)
