Food Scene

Lake Charles has TONS of restaurants - here are a few of my favorites.
Local microbrewery with good hamburgers. Check website for activities. Rikenjaks is located on Ryan Street (named after one of the founding fathers - and my ancestor - of Lake Charles). It's not far from the Bayou House. The street is a very busy commercial corridor that runs from downtown Lake Charles to McNeese State University. There are lots of restaurants to choose from.

Pretty popular with the Lake Charles crowd. It's in downtown Lake Charles. To get to the downtown area just head north on Lake Street. It will dead end at the lake - take a right and travel along one of the most scenic streets in Lake Charles. The drive will take you to the western edge of downtown.

How do you say cheers in Greek? Στην υγειά σας (Stin ygeiá sas), This restaurant is just around the corner from the Bayou House on Prien Lake Road. Prien Lake Road has become a very busy street, with plenty of restaurants to choose from. Prien Lake Road also takes you to Nelson Road, which will bring you to the Casinos.

This is a favorite place with the locals. It's a small, unassuming restaurant that serves "Steaks, seafood & standard Cajun-Creole entrees ".

Sightseeing

Bayou Rum is made at a small distillery about 15 miles east of Lake Charles. Try the Satsuma and the Dark Select - they are our favorites!
