There was also plenty of space out front to celebrate together with friends and family, and also play around and ride the bull. Thanks for hosting!

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.

Note it appears that their menus vary by location, with the University location having smaller offerings. Of the food we tried, I enjoyed the pepperoni pizza the most and the Boudin the least. If you do not drink beer, they also have cocktails and wine. As with the food, the University location has a limited selection of cocktails. The night we came they also had live music outside. The place is pretty huge with an upstairs and outside space. If you have little ones, or enjoy playing pinball yourself, they have a room where you can play on the Main level.

After hearing from several people that we "had to check out Darrell's," we finally decided to hit…read moreit up for lunch. We arrived just a couple minutes after their 11 a.m. opening, and the place was already packed, a good sign in itself. Luckily, with only three of us, the hostess got us seated at a table right away. The exterior isn't much to look at, but stepping inside tells a different story. The interior has a sports bar meets old school diner vibe, with decor that gives the whole place a nostalgic, lived-in charm. We all decided on the Darrell's Special sandwich with jalapeño mayo, and it did not disappoint. Our waitress was fantastic the whole meal, constantly checking in, keeping our drinks filled, and making sure we didn't need anything else. Despite how busy the place was, our sandwiches came out in a surprisingly short time. The sandwich itself is a beast! A toasted, loaded bun stacked with ham, turkey, and roast beef (which I hear is made in-house), all topped with roast beef gravy, American, Swiss, and provolone cheeses, lettuce, mustard, and your choice of regular or jalapeño mayonnaise, of course we had the Jalapeño Mayo. The first bite reminded me of a warm French dip, but that impression quickly gave way to layers of different meat flavors, rounded out by the subtle heat of the jalapeño mayo. It practically melted in my mouth. Honestly, I wanted to finish the whole thing, but I didn't want to need to be rolled out of the building, so I boxed up the second half and enjoyed it again for dinner. Great food, great service, and now I understand what all the buzz was about.

The staff was super sweet! We waited almost an entire hour for a table, which we knew going in on a…read morefriday night. 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.

We heard good things about Luna, but I believe they were talking about a different location. Sadly,…read morethis is the only location open on Sunday for dinner, not to mention the only restaurant open at all on Sunday night. As an only resort, we visited Luna for dinner. The inside is beautiful, the dining areas and bar looked immaculate, the staff were friendly and attentive, so we assumed we would have an excellent meal. After getting our shrimp and artichoke dip appetizer, we realized the tortilla chips were stale and proceeded to eat the dip with just our forks. We shared a fried chicken breast main dish and a side Caesar salad. The salad croutons were picked off because we noticed those were also stale and chewy - this made the salad edible at least. Our chicken came out and we both immediately noticed it tasted funny, like a soapy dish water marinade. The breading was edible but sadly we couldn't make a meal out of it. So we left hungry and added this location to our list of places never to visit again when we are in the area. I don't know what this location is doing that can't be replicated from the other more popular location, but having the advantage of being one of the few restaurants open on Sunday, I would suggest management fix whatever is happening in the kitchen so they might succeed long term.

The sauce was excellent but the fish over I was disappointed. I'll probably try again on my third goal and have it well done the creamy spinach was a plus very good. The cheese sticks were like mozzarella sticks basically not worth the order. Spinach and artichoke is the bomb. And some of the staff don't know they're right from their left. I guess it's a new hired staff, but most of all I love and enjoy the live music and seeing people laugh the bartender could've been better at greating the customers and for $45 I feel like Luna can do better. I will update you guys on my third time around.

We made reservations and were seated promptly upon arrival. Our server, Carson, did an amazing job. He was courteous, prompt, and attentive. We were a party of four and each one of us thoroughly enjoyed our drink, appetizer and meal. We ordered Shrimp Ya-Ya as an appetizer after being recommended by Carson, and it definitely didn't disappoint! So much flavor. Three of us ordered stuffed red snapper and loved it. Portion, presentation and flavor were superb! We each had different sides and loved them. The fourth guest in our party ordered a seafood platter and I was surprised to see a nice amount. The manager, Cole, was extremely friendly and even took the time to give us a little history of the restaurant. The dessert ordered for my sister-in-law's birthday was delicious-chocolate lava is a must! We ended the night purchasing some seasoning after enjoying the flavor of our food. We will definitely return!
