Restaurant Calla, located in Lake Charles, offers a mixed dining experience. While some enjoyed the excellent food and passionate staff, others found the quality lacking and service subpar. The menu is decently priced but some dishes were overly salted, fishy, or simply mediocre. Service varied from attentive to lazy. However, the beautifully presented food and cocktails received praise, as did the child-friendly atmosphere. Overall, opinions on Restaurant Calla were mixed, with some recommending specific dishes and praising the attentive staff, while others found the food and service lacking.
