Atmosphere unmatched, food preparation, friendly staff and service.

We ate at La Truffe Sauvage this weekend and it was really good. To start with for drinks, my husband had an Old Fashioned and I had a mojito. We're both usually two drink people but we weren't really feeling like getting drinks that night. I like my mojito (and all my cocktails) to be sweet, like really sweet hehehe but this was good! Not an overpowering amount of mint. It was very refreshing!We both had lobster bisque to start. It was beautiful! The pastry on top of it was so stunning and tasty. The bisque itself was very flavorful. I could taste the lobster flavor, but it didn't have lobster in it- some bisques do and some don't. Had I known there was no lobster in it I probably would've gotten the scallops for an appetizer.My entree was red snapper with lump crab and steamed potatoes. It also had capers in the sauce. The top of the snapper was so crispy it was like he fried it. I ran my fork across the top of it and could hear the crispyness. I love that the chef didn't put the sauce on top of the snapper and make it not as crisp lol. The steamed potatoes were not really my thing, as I discovered, but they were okay. My entree was good, although I like a touch more salt on the snapper for my tastes, which is a personal preference thing. My husband's halibut was amazing!My husband had the special: halibut with beet pasta and shrimp. The halibut was out of this world flavorful- perfectly seasoned. It was our first time trying halibut. I just recently started eating fish. My husband couldn't finish his halibut so I felt it was my duty to eat the rest of it ?. I preferred his meal to mine, but they were both delicious.For dessert we had a Grand Marnier souffle with creme anglaise. We had to order it with our dinner to make sure it wasn't going to be a long wait while it was baking. It was probably one of the best desserts I've (I think, maybe, both of us) ever had. Very light and fluffy, yet rich. It had a light citrus flavor. It was one of those times when you want to lick the plate but realize that in polite society one doesn't do such things ???Oh, and they brought us some truffles with the check. Be still my heart. They were coconut, hazelnut truffles. Something like that. Delish!The presentation of everything was beautiful. That's a big part of the meal for me, not gonna lie. The staff was very attentive- they made sure our water was always full and checked to see if we needed anything else. They always checked to make sure everything tasted good. Honestly that counts for a lot for me. I hate going to a place where what they do is only for how much money they make and they don't care about the customer experience. We both really felt that they wanted us to enjoy our dining experience. Every staff member there worked together for the benefit of the customer. Different people came to our table to check on us, refill drinks, and thank us for being there throughout the course of our meal. If you're ever in Lake Charles, Louisiana, definitely give them a try!I always think about whether I would go back to a place or not when there are other restaurants that we could try. I would definitely go back here to try some of their other items. Give them a try. You will not be disappointed in your fine dining experience. It's fine dining so you will spend a little more than at other places. Keep that in mind.If anyone from the restaurant is reading this, thank you ALL for welcoming us, taking amazing care of us, and making our dining experience one to remember.

A Fantastic little secret hidden away in Lake Charles! I lived here for almost 22 years and have never heard of this amazing place. As I am a local guide on Google Reviews and I read lots of other reviews, I came across a wonderful review of this place. I figured I would suprise my wife and take her here, we were both very pleased with our dining experience! We started with an amazing salmon appetizer, and my wife had a Ginger Betty cocktail ?. The salmon was excellent, and she thoroughly enjoyed the cocktail. We both ordered the Prime beef tenderloin, and it was cooked to perfection. For dessert, we shared a berry soufflé that was to die for. The service was as good as it Gets! The atmosphere was cozy and warm with an upscale feel. We will definitely be returning.
