James Wright The service was awesome we had a waitress her name was Jordan absolutely wonderful great energy helped us with anything checked on those multiple times I mean just outstanding service from Jordan

Lauren McGill We stopped by Steamboat Bills on our way through the Lake Charles area! This was the perfect stop! Everything we ordered was fantastic! I had the Shrimp Etouffe. I have never had it so wasnt sure how I would like it. They offered me a sample ahead of time and it was fantastic so I had to order it!! We also had fried gator and chicken gumbo! It was all wonderful, we will definitely return here if we are in the area again!

Payton Partin For the price, this dining experience is very difficult to compete with (let alone beat). The wait time was very long, but ae were able to wait away from the restaurant by reserving a place through the website. Service was excellent, and the atmosphere was uplifting and refreshing. My steak was cooked exactly as I requested, and the cactus blossom onion was crispy and not swimming in grease like the competitions similar appetizer. Of course, the rolls and cinnamon butter are insanely good as well… it’s almost worth dining here just for those. We will be back!

Dondria Braziel It’s a sports bar yes…but we went during quiet time I guess. Got in, ate, and left. The poboys were absolutely delish as always and the bread is chefs kiss!!

Rich Spencer Visited whilst over from the UK and on a bit of a road trip. Busy spot that served a great breakfast. Has the pleasure of sharing a table with a gentleman called Herb and his wife. A true gent and one of our favourite memories of the trip. Well worth a visit.

Samara Hossain My favorite place to stay in Lake Charles! The staff is always such a pleasure to interact with, and the scenic view from my husband and I’s room truly made the stay special. The suites are even better in person. They’re spacious, comfortable, and beautifully maintained. Absolutely worth every dime. I’m already looking forward to my next visit.

Craig Robert “Lary” Family came together at Walk-Ons this afternoon to visit for a birthday and break bread together. Our party of 7 was seated immediately at a cozy, clean table. Our server was excellent, very attentive and accurate. Our food was delivered quickly and everything was as requested and delicious! Overall a very rewarding experience! I would definitely recommend this venue, and we will return!

Lehua Okalani Pat’s of Henderson. I’ve been a fan since I was a girl. NOLA born but living out of state. Mama brought me home to Louisiana. I was amazed. I still am. THIS Pat’s brings a bit of New Orleans glamor to SW Louisiana. And the food hasn’t changed a bit. It’s still old South Louisiana school delicious. Something for everyone seafood, salads, chicken, steaks. Wine and drinks list is extensive and very well thought out. The service is stellar. James took care of me tonight, the most attentive service I’ve had in a long time. If you’re in Lake Charles check them out. You’ll be glad you did. I promise. And ask for an off the menu, root beer float. You’ll get it. With a smile.

J JG If you want true southern seafood and a laid back atmosphere, then you have to check out Seafood Palace. One of the many restaurant gems in Lake Charles! The Gumbo is the best I’ve ever had!

V Quette Love the Dragon Tuna, but eat it as its prepared dont ask for it well done. Big mistake on my part. Friendlt, great food great atmosphere

Gee Marina If I would have just went by the reviews and didn’t go in and try it for myself, I would’ve been highly upset. The food and service was so good. I definitely will be going back again. Everything was seasoned to perfection. I had the shrimp and crab bag plus Chard boiled oysters and my boyfriend had the shrimp Poboy…. Wish I would have taken pictures with my phone rather than my Meta glasses these pictures do them know justice lol.

Austin Crispino Some of the best food I’ve had in my life. We started with a cup of their award winning chicken and sausage gumbo, and their boudin egg rolls. Both were excellent. For our main course we had the queso burger and the Bon Temps shrimp Po Boy with onion rings. I would highly recommend all of these items. The service and atmosphere were outstanding as well.
