Our Story

Big flavor,
deep roots

Roberta’s Prime brings Cajun & Creole cooking, cold cocktails and a warm welcome to the heart of Lake Charles.

The Idea

A little bit of Louisiana

Roberta’s was built around the food we grew up on — roux stirred low and slow, seafood pulled fresh from the Gulf, and a pot of gumbo that tastes like Sunday. From char-broiled oysters to crawfish étouffée and hand-battered fried catfish, it’s Cajun & Creole cooking made the honest way.

There’s a ribeye off the grill, a burger stacked tall, and po’boys dressed the way they should be. And the bar keeps pace — cold cocktails, an easy patio, and Happy Hour every weekday. Come as you are, stay as long as you like.

Happy Hour & more

Happy Hour runs Monday through Friday, 4–7 PM, at the bar and out on the patio — $7 lemon drop martinis, margaritas, sidecars and old fashioneds.

We’re family-friendly with a full kids’ menu, glad to host private parties and crawfish boils, and always happy to set you up to-go. Walk-ins are welcome; call ahead for larger groups.

Come see for yourself.
