Welcome
Big flavor, deep LA
roots.
Roberta’s Prime is Lake Charles’s home for Cajun & Creole cooking — gumbo and étouffée, char-broiled oysters, po’boys and hand-battered fried seafood.
The kitchen runs on Louisiana staples done right, the grill turns out ribeyes and Gulf salmon, and the bar keeps the good times going with cold cocktails, Happy Hour on the patio, and a pour long after the plates clear. Come hungry — leave happy.
