I've been eating here with my wife and daughter for 4 years and have ordered the beef shawarma and Hallumi cheese every single time, and every single time we have never been disappointed. The beef is flavorful and fresh, the hummus is seasoned, and the fried potatoes are always PERFECT. My wife and I have almost asked the cook how he manages to get the potatoes so consistently golden and crispy. The waitresses have always been nice and attentive. The decorations on the interior made us laugh the first time we saw it, but the music is quiet unlike every other restaurant that feels the need to assault your ears with music so that you can't hear yourself think. I have no idea what the bad reviews of this place are talking about with unflavorful food or bad wait times. We have never waited more than 20 minutes for our entree. read more

Wow! Authentic Lebanese cuisine. This is a must-try restaurant. I entered on a Thursday evening. And the place was packed. It was about 45 minutes to get our meal, but it was definitely worth it. The owner came out to greet and thank everyone for coming. People were clapping. I was moved. I enjoyed the falafels. They were crunchy just like I like them. There is bar seating. However, the drink choices are limited. It's not a full bar. There is accessible parking as well as entrance read more

5 stars for the food, it just took a long time to get it even when the restaurant was empty, and prices are pretty high. Again, food was great though. Really enjoyed the cauliflower read more

I love this place. Every time I've been with my fiance, the service has been great. The food is so flavorful and delicious. I love the kibbie, falafel, the spanakopita is incredible, their lentil soup is amazing, I love every kebab option they have: lamb, chicken, but the beef is the best. The hummus, cabbage salad, garlic sauce, and tzatziki are all so good. Their pita is served warm and the fried pita that comes with the soup is so tasty. The chicken and beef shawarma are good (especially the beef), but it's not shaved. I kinda get it though because when it's shaved, it's so easy to dry out - it seems like the kind of food you can really only serve if it's really busy. My only issue is their rice is always over-cooked, but it's honestly such a small issue imo. Their Lebanese iced tea and Turkish coffee are delicious. I love their baklava. I can't remember what their other dessert is called, but it's described as a "cheese cake" and it's definitely NOT a standard cheesecake. I don't recommend it lol. Overall, this place is great. I love Toga Grill and can't recommend it enough. read more

First time trying this restaurant and I fell in love with the owner and his daughter. We were treated like family immediately! Then to get to the food....it was to die for!! Everything was home made and not Costco reheat that I have experienced in other establishments. My favorite was the cotton candy dessert but the falafel was yummy.The grape leaves were so good we ordered a second round and plates of shawarma were cleaned. I don't think you could go wrong with anything on the menu! Toga grill is a diamond in the rough and highly recommended! read more

Great food and service. Friendly staff. Definitely the place for lunch and dinner. Love it

Every time I pass through Lake Charles I make it a priority to come visit my favorite restaurant. The staff is super friendly and the owner (Jamal) is very welcoming. Toga Grill serves the best Lebanese/Greek food bar none. Look up that phrase kiddos. The cabbage rolls are dynamite. The beef is cooked to perfection, while the rice is soft and fluffy. Then it's tightly wrapped and topped with some fresh lemon juice. I'm salivating just thinking about them. It pairs perfectly with some tzatziki. My favorite two dishes are the jalapeño stuffed kibbie and the gyro. The kibbie is nice and crispy. You get some heat from the jalapeño. Then add in the combination of meat and onions. It's out of this world! The gyro is thick, juicy, and roasted perfectly, plus you get a side of potatoes and hummus. Expert advice: ask for a side of garlic sauce for your potatoes. You'll regret it if you don't listen to me. If you are passing through, y'all need to stop in for some amazing cuisine. read more

The best Lebanese food in lake Charles by a mile. Everything is super fresh and the food is authentic and amazing.!

Very good and very friendly service. The food quality and selection are excellent. I'm not motivated to go to any other Greek/Lebanese restaurant! read more

Pretty good Mediterranean food spot in Lake Charles! The staff was very attentive and the portions were really good. We started with grape leaves. They were good but would rate it 3.5/5. I am used to having vegetarian grape leaves and think they taste better this way. I also wish there was more acidity. I had the gyro plate and the gyro meat was really good. The rice was a little overcooked but the flavors were good. Wish there was more pita bread besides the two small pieces so that we could dip the pita in the hummus. read more

They lied about my order and claimed I was not charged when they did charge me for food I never received. I use to be a regular at this establishment and I will never patronize this establishment again. Their food is not good enough for poor treatment of customers read more

Stopped in for lunch. Food was below average. The chicken seemed boiled and poorly seasoned. Gyro meat was average. Pita bread was the thinnest I've ever encountered. Hummus was decent. Rice medley seemed to have lentils or something similar in it, also just passable. The Lebanese iced tea was decent. But to repeat - that chicken seemed boiled and poorly seasoned. It's exactly what you'd expect from a 19-year-old trying to recall a memory that someone told him without bothering to confirm anything. Baffles me that this place has an average of 4 stars. Even offering two stars seems super generous. read more

This place is a hidden gem. It is so easy to pass up, but don't! Their food is delicious!

Amazing bar! I witnessed a bar fight today, it was intense, the fight intitially ended with someone bashing glass of champagne over the opponents head. 10/10 reccomend read more

Food is amazing. I travel often . and every time i come through Lake Charles this is a must stop. The food quality and taste is amazing. The wait staff is very friendly and the owners will make you feel like part of the family. Thanks for a meal from home. #LowCountryCajun read more

I love to eat here. The food is fantastic. Reasonably priced. The staff is friendly and efficient. However I resent being upcharged if I use a credit card. read more

Wow! We just had takeout from Toga Grill and the food is fabulous! It's so flavorful and filling. We had the gyro platter and falafel platter. It was so much food. We also tried the lentil soup and the moussaka soup. I was scared at first because of the amount of garlic in the moussaka soup but it was heavenly. I'm not a fan of cabbage slaw but the slaw on the platters is made without a cream Mayo sauce so it was a nice change with a tang to it. I will definitely go again and hopefully I can eat in to enjoy the nice atmosphere they have. read more

Pretty good find in the lake Charles area. Coming from New York City where Greek and Lebanese food is plentiful, I was pleasantly surprised to find how flavorful the dishes were. Of course being in the south, portions are huge which was a plus! To start we ordered the baba ghanoush to share which had a nice smokey flavor. Because it was lunch hour, my boyfriend and I each ordered a plate from their lunch menu. I had the chicken shawarma and he had the combo platter. Both delicious! And their hummus on point! Oh and their ice tea with rose syrup is a must! Super refreshing! read more

Absolutely a great place to try . This place provides a big variety of food . It's a family owned business and the owner is very friendly and welcoming . If you want to try a taste of everything I recommend you get the sampler platter . It's plenty of good food to fill you up . I will be back soon on my next trip . read more

Had dinner here last night. Overall - really good Mediterranean food. Gave 4 stars because i felt that the service was a tad slow. I would definitely come here again though. The tzatziki appetizer was delicious and the chicken Schwarma plate was good. read more

Walked in nice atmosphere our waitress was very nice and not pushy offered some great choices but the our order took 35 mins and we were not pleased with the end result.. will I return only if I have time to wait .. read more

What a cute little place. Order at the counter and take your seat. However it was beautifully decorated. I had my traditional Greek stand-by of a Greek style feta cheese salad. The dressing was on the sweet side but very tasty. I also had tszeki (sp?) sauce as a dip for the fabulous baked chips. Very nice atmosphere and wonderful food. read more

We picked up from Toga last night for my birthday dinner and all of us enjoyed our meals. We loved the kibbie and grape leaves for appetizers! My mom had never had grape leaves and she is ready to order them again. The chicken schwarma, lamb and hadi's special didnt disappoint either. A lovely meal with nice service on the phone and when picking up our order. Thanks Toga Grill for making my quarantine birthday a lovely evening! read more

A fabulous hidden gem. EVERYTHING here is good...we tried the Combo and Gladiator and not only was it delicious but it was very filling with plenty to take home. On top of great food it was outstanding service. read more

This is my second time here and this place sucks, usually I don't leave bad reviews but my boyfriend and I spent $40 here and the food was absolutely terrible. First off I called and placed an order for pick up at 8:40 and then my boyfriend gets there and my order wasn't even put in. I thought maybe I dialed the wrong number so we checked and it was the right place. He reordered and they made the order for us but if I knew what I was going to receive I would have left the food there. He ordered the lamb chops and I ordered the chicken Shawarma. Pita bread, Chicken and potatoes were dry, rice was soggy and clumped together and on top of that instead of getting tzatziki sauce I got a fucking cup of mayonnaise... like are you serious? Seriously never eating here again... I should have just went to chili's like my boyfriend wanted and got not old shit you guys were gonna throw away. read more

Love this place. I got a Ilham salad to go along with a gyro platter . This salad was LOADED and so good and worth every penny! I recommend this place to everyone and since reopening after their renovation there's a nice bar and plenty of floor seating. read more

My favorites are El Ham salad(it is a mix of salads and is perfection when you add chicken. Their grape leaves and hummus are amazing!

Ordered 4 meals from this restaurant from Waitr. Took 2 hours to get it. Worst food we have ever eaten. Of 4 meals, the only thing edible was the hummus, everything else was horribly bitter, overcooked, dry and inedible. With the hummus and meals we were only given two small triangles of pita bread. Good thing I had some red beans in the fridge. Trying to support local restaurants, but not if they are going to give us inedible food that takes 2 hours. Oh, and Waitr didn't even text us back, so we had to pay for this "food." From now on we will order from the chains such as Outback, delivery in 30 minutes, no huge Waitr "delivery" and "service fees" and ... wait for it... edible food. read more

I loved the service I got. Their sweet tea is very unique, and when I decided to give it a go, the man behind the counter told me I was more than welcome to grab a different drink if I didn't like the tea. The atmosphere is small, but cozy and full of character. I don't know why I loved the big rug, but it made the space feel more inviting. Definitely will be back to explore the menu more. Kibby is amazing here!! I dipped it in garlic sauce that came with my chicken shawarma and it was sooooo good!!!!! read more

I've always loved this place. Tonight I ordered through Waitr. Food came and items had been omitted. It was fault of restaurant not Waitr. I called and spoke to manager. She totally made it right! read more

So there isn't much to the place, but the food is very good. I had the Gyro with a side of hummus and potatoes. Everything was tasty and hot. They have all the classics from Kibbie, to Baba Ganoush to Mousaka. Check this place out when you get a chance. read more

While working in the area I came across this place so I decided to give it a try. I ordered the Gyro sandwich which also came with hummus and fried potato cubes. I wasn't expecting much but this sandwich was really good with a nice surprise. Instead of the standard Tzatziki Sauce it came with a garlicky flavored sauce.The potatoes were done just right and the hummus was delicious. Yes you do have to wait, but it seems that most orders are pick-up or to-go. So naturally you'll have to wait, my wait was about 15 to 20 minutes. As we all know this isn't fast food so if that is what you want go hit one of the franchises that serves it. Otherwise have some patience. I work in this area often and I will definitely come back. read more

Great place. Small homey atmosphere. Food is outstanding. Our waitress was the BEST! The lamb is outstanding.

Great local Lebanese/greek restaurant. I had the beef kabobs and greek salad. The food was made fresh and promptly, and good portions. read more

Very clean, well furnished yet still casual. Great food! The fried cheese with apricot jam is amazing! Good gyros, good humus. The iced tea is a rose water blend. You'll love it or hate it. I loved it. Waitress - Lacy - did a great job. We'll be back. read more

The food at Toga is fresh and flavorful. The portion size is very generous. The staff is wonderful!

Toga grill has destroyed Kibbi. Their Kibbi was never the best, but it was passable. Now they've added cheese to the center meat filling. It was unexpected and gross. The pita bread, I guess it was Pita , that came with the Humus was fluffy and tasted of yeast. It was well paired with the revolting Kibbi. Toga hasn't my been good in years. Well before covid and back to back hurricanes they had begun to slip. This was the last straw. I'd rather have no Greek/Lebanese food than the have the slop served by Toga Grill. read more

I am absolutely in love with this place. They have some of the best grape leaves and the best hummus I have ever eaten. The falafel is excellent and the gyro plate is also very tasty. I will definitely come back to try some of the other food. The food has always been fresh and very flavorful. read more

EVERY SINGLE PIECE OF FOOD on my dish is tasty, tasty, tasty. My mouth waters just looking at the picture. The owner is a transplant from the middle east, I think Lebanon?, So that is probably what makes the food so deliciously authentic. I will bet that anything you order from the menu is going to be remembered for a very long time. But if you have trouble remembering, take a picture because it is not something you will ever want to forget. read more
