About 6 years ago, this place was bomb.

I have never been to a place that would not accommodate a vegetarian! Drove 6 miles off interstate and they would NOT substitute grits for the bacon. They were going to charge me extra $$ when I don’t eat meat. I asked both the lady at the bar and then asked the front desk ladies and no one would resolve it. Unbelievably disappointed in this place!

Visited for an early morning breakfast. Pleasant surroundings, nice environment just off the lobby of the Holiday Inn in Lake Charles. Very attentive servers and breakfast prepared well. Downsides were a lengthy wait and expensive $$$ breakfast. Okay if one is staying at the hotel as no other establishments are within walking distance.

I ordered food via Grubhub and on the app it showed that the restaurant was open and accepted my order. A few minutes later, it showed that my order was accepted and was delivered. Thinking the driver might need directions to my location so I sent him and text and he replied with my “Kem’s is closed!” So I checked the status again and it showed that my order was still on the way. That’s when I received a call from someone at Grubhub telling me that in fact the restaurant was closed and that I would receive a refund in 5-7 business days! If your restaurant is closed, state that on the app so that people don’t lose money!

Paul the waiter is n incredible server,,he is the best server I've seen in years...this gentlemen knows n does his job with a spirit of excellence.....

Great service and amazing food. A hidden gem in Lake Charles with American cuisine with a Cajun twist. Everyone is so friendly and accommodating. I'd definitely recommend giving it a try.

The restaurant is great! I am so happy IHG allows this hotel to "do their own thing" with the menu. I love Cajun food and this hotel has some of the best local Cajun food you can find. Looking forward to my next trip!

Nice place

The service was great!! Everyone was extremely helpful and friendly! The food was incredible...beyond what you would expect.

Really misleading as it is simply a hotel restaurant with hotel type food. Nothing special and a little overpriced for what it is. Would go
