I've been wanting to try this place for a while. My husband and I arrived on a Friday night at around 6 pm. We walked in and there was a couple sitting at the bar and only two other tables were occupied. We were sat in a booth. We were promptly seated and greeted. Even as far as introducing all the servers and the cook for the night.We ordered a Moscato and a Dos Xx, which they were out of both. I ordered a lemon drop off their menu and my husband ordered a crown and coke. We ordered an appetizer of hummus, I believe it was the spicy one. It was AMAZING! It came out quickly with hot pita bread.I ordered the beef kabob and my husband ordered the shrimp kabob. I ordered a drink called the dragonfly.The beef was so tender and seasoned perfectly. The vegetables were on point. I don't know what they did to them, but they were AMAZING.My husband's shrimp, oh my, the seasoning was good, now, he did wish he had more of those shrimp. But he wasn't starving by no means, but they were so good.The hummus with the chickpeas on the plates were great too.To finish it off we ordered baklava to split. It was warm and so good. The atmosphere, service, and food 10/10! I will be back!

The owner of this establishment is absolutely horrendous. He's rude, disrespectful, and racist, and the food is tasteless and subpar to say the least! I would not recommend anyone waste their time or money to patronize this place. He got offended because my friend asked for change for a tip in cash. The owner was not even our waiter but came over to our table and rudely harassed us because we asked for change...after the meal was already paid for with a credit card. We then went outside to our vehicles in the parking lot and told us we were never welcome back to his restaurant and that he would call the cops on us. We then called the cops ourselves due to feeling threatened and harassed. I'd give this place 0 stars if it wasn't required to give 1 star to be able to post the review.

One of the best Mideastern food restaurants around. Service was excellent, pricing was good and reasonable for the price. Whole crew treated us as a food critic covering them.
Just amazing atmosphere, super nice and knowledgeable staff. The inside is an absolute jewel very intimate and romantic setting. You’re able to see the chef prepare your courses ! Great drink selections a must have when in the Lake Charles area !!
Very amazing place! First time trying last night. Amazing chef so kind, amazing waiters. I’m definitely making this my take out place!

Traveling and was so tired of fried everything. This place is new but the food is fabulous. If you’re a fan of Mediterranean food or are just looking for something different, Nawal’s is so worth the adventure. I had the Red Velvet Chicken and it truly was a taste experience. The Lebanese hummus was to die for. So good. I think we’ve found our new favorite Lake Charles eatery.
My wife and I (after reading about Kawal's Kabab House & Grill in Lagniappe) went there for dinner on Thursday evening 1/25/24. Everything not only met our expectations, it surpassed them. The food was excellent and the service unmatched. Prices reflect today's expectations for quality restaurants. They can compete well with the other top-quality restaurants service Greek-Lebanese type foods. Excellent Beef Kabobs, meat grape leaves, outstanding humas. We will be return customers.
It’s an American dinner pretending to serve Mediterranean food .. I would rather have not eaten than to have been thru trying different terrible dishes with no

Easy’s food is incredible. Easy is one of the chefs that helped feed thousands of people after Hurricane Laura and continues to provide amazing food and service at Nawal’s. The man has a heart of gold. Highly recommend for delicious food and an amazing time. Family friendly.
My wife and I ate there on 12/9/23 after Christmas shopping. The food was absolutely amazing. My wife had the Gyro plate and I had the Blackened Fish with cream sauce and blackened shrimp. It was so good! We would definitely recommend and will be back! The waiter was so attentive and all of the staff so friendly and amazing. It was one of the best best dining experience we have had in Lake Charles and for a very affordable price! They even brought us complimentary chocolate martinis. This place is truly a gem and and a place to “watch” out for (joke with the staff / owner). because it will surely be around for a long time!!!Parking: Plenty of parking
