Our family's meeting spot when in Lake Charles. Worthy gumbo. Good boudin and boudin balls. Excellent service. This is one of the places where you are truly treated like family - for better, for worse. lol read more

This place has a casual country feel. They're definitely known for their seafood, and they didn't disappoint. I opted for the Crawfish, and was a amazed of how full of flavor and spicy they were! Some of the best Crawfish I'd had in long time. The server was friendly and attentive, the restaurant was very clean. If you're looking for good seafood, had a good price, eat here! read more

Seafood Palace - Crawfish - Seafood Near Me - Lake Charles, Louisiana

Best Gumbo in town. Anytime I am hungry for gumbo this is my go-to option. I also send lots of out of town customers that way when they are looking for great seafood and a casual atmosphere at a fair price! And the waitresses are always on their game! read more

Was in town for business got the pound of boiled shrimp. Delicious. Will visit again when back in town.

I always love family gatherings here after an event they have the best seafood my favorite time is to go during crawfish season. This has been a family tradition since I was a little kid. read more

It's been a year since we stopped here. The food used to be delicious. It was absolutely disgusting. We got shrimp poboys. I am not sure what coating was on the shrimp but they were yucky! The French fries had something on them also that did not taste good as well. read more

As a Texan, I always thought we knew how to eat well, and eat big. This unassuming place taught me my Louisiana relatives know how to properly pig out on great food too. The crabs are amazing good and the servings huge. Seeing foot-tall piles of crab carcasses in front of most everyone there was a sight to behold and one I won't ever forget. read more

Great place great food great ambience Prices are very reasonable for what you receive read more

Great friendly service & excellent food. This place was recommended by a local over one of the more popular seafood restaurants. It's where the locals go & for good reason. Can't wait to go back for their crabs & shrimp & more crabs - both fried and boiled! read more

Excellent food and fantastic wait staff. We were in town for a family funeral over the weekend and they handled our large party of 40+ beautifully!! Such nice, helpful and understanding ladies. My only issue would be the imported shrimp....in Louisiana!! read more

On a recent trip to Lake Charles, we stopped by Seafood Palace for dinner our first night in town. Located 10-15 minutes from L'Auberge, Seafood Plalace is one of the most popular restaurants in the area on Yelp. So we were definitely looking for our Cajun fix. Upon arriving, we parked in their lot and walked into this casual restaurant. They have several TVs throughout which is always an added bonus to watch some sports. From there, I was impressed with the unique menu which extends beyond your typical Cajun fare. Case in point: duck tenders. Not something I've ever seen before. I've seen your traditional duck and even duck wings. But breaded tenders? Sign me up. A little chewy as you would expect but still delicious. Or grilled gator. You often see fried gator. But you don't typically see grilled gator which was great as it allows you to taste the meat better than the fried variety. Along with that, I also got a side of fries, a roll, and a beer. Service was standard. You then pay at the counter when you leave. I always appreciate an adventurous meal! read more

Good food and quick service. Boudin balls were phenomenal and the crawfish is amazing!

The staff were super nice, I thought they did a great job, I'd give 5 stars to the staff. The food just wasn't for me. The fries were soft, nothing was seasoned well, there's no spice to anything at all. The house salad was just packaged lettuce with 3 cherry tomatoes on top and a plastic packet of Ken's dressing. Disappointing food all around. read more

If you're ever in or passing through Lake Charles this is your go to for authentic Louisiana/Southern seafood! Service was top tier and the owner David was the sweetest. read more

Seafood Palace - Shrimp Poboy - Seafood Near Me - Lake Charles, Louisiana

Food was good. Service was okay. We will be back. Kinda a tight dinning area, it was clean just close tables.

A terrific hole-in-the-wall that's consistently all about the food! We ordered the small Fried Fish (with salad, French fries and sweet roll), and small Chicken & Sausage Gumbo (with rice). The fish was hot and crispy, the fries not too salty, and the sweet roll hit just right. The gumbo had a rich roux with generous portions of chicken and sausage. The saltines were nice, with. Service is quick and attentive. read more

As always the only place I go when I'm in Lake Charles. The hometown atmosphere is everything. The staff as always super friendly and the service is top notch. All of their food is good, however, boiled crabs are my favorite. read more

We ordered fried oysters: very good. Seafood gumbo: good but not Pats Crawfish: pretty. Good Fried crabs: order the boiled instead Service was. Good read more

Ate here today with my father. It was our first visit, but it will not be the last! We both got the large seafood platter so we could try a bit of everything. It was all truly delicious! My favorite might have been the stuffed shrimp or the fish, which was fried to perfection! No less than three staff members, not including the server made their way past our table to greet us. Service was top notch. Restaurant was clean and filled with bright conversation. This is the kind of place I enjoy supporting! Will definitely give it another go! read more

Clearly a spot where the locals go! Seafood Palace is simple, casual, family-style seating, low maintainance- NOT fancy, but great food place. If you want a simple, but great fresh seafood meal, this is your spot. Servers were no-fuss and efficient. There is a separate bar area. Big menu with everything you're hoping to find. Great place! read more

Great seafood, great service, pod ambiance. Passing through the area and recommended by friends

We had another phenomenal evening eating crabs at David's place. There's not another place in town except for maybe Cousin's that has such superb service and unique character within their environments. If you've been hesitating on getting crabs, please don't. We ate these middle of July. These are the biggest I have seen them all year! Check out my photos. And hurry along! read more

This was my husband first experience with crawfish. It was the prefect place to take him! The Seafood Palace did not disappoint! The staff is very friendly, food was cooked perfectly, and the restaurant itself is comfortable and has a local feel. read more

This place is just so much YES, y'all. It was recommended by my local family which usually means the place is amazing... and it was. I was sad the crabs were sold out but also pretty surprised they even had them at that point in the season. The crawfish was beautiful. I would 100% revisit read more

This place oozes Cajun and southwest Louisiana the moment you walk in. The smells the old school atmosphere, everything is as Louisiana as it gets here. The menu has everything fried, boiled, or grilled that could possibly want. Surprisingly they have a really good shrimp taco with a Cajun flair. They also have a wide variety of healthy things as well. Highly recommend this for a casual lunch or dinner. read more

I was craving some gumbo while visiting Lake Charles and I was glad Seafood Palace was open. The chicken and sausage gumbo had a rich flavor to it and the fried okra was tasty. Even their sweet tea was good. The only thing I didn't care for was the batter on the fried shrimp. Other than that, the service was excellent and the employees were very kind. read more

First thing is the service here was superb! They are so friendly and attentive. We had appetizers of hush puppies, fried jalapeño crab stuffed, & fried pickles. All were good. We had chicken and sausage gumbo, potato salad and fried shrimp. All was very good. We ordered 8 lbs of boiled crawfish and that was where we were disappointed, it was over cooked so therefore so hard to peel it took forever. That was our biggest complaint here. read more

Good and service was excellent! My husband had fish and shrimp and I had stuffed crab. Everything was really good!

We stopped by here for some crabs, and while it was disappointing that they didn't have boiled crabs, my wife did enjoy the fried crabs. I had the boudin balls and duck tenders, both were just OK. The fried seafood platters that other tables were ordering looked really good. read more
