After deciding whether we would give this restaurant a try, we finally decided to. Let me tell you, IT DID NOT DISAPPOINT! The food was so delicious, we ordered chips and salsa added on some cheese dip. I also ordered some wings as well (chipotle adobo wings). The food was hot and fresh when arrived to the table. Of course we tried the drinks and they were AMAZING. If you are looking for a strong drink, this is your place. Marie was the bartender and her service and attentiveness was GREAT. She made sure that food was delivered on time and also correct. The HOST is always the first impression of a restaurant of course and let’s just say from that point i knew the service and everything would be OUTSTANDING. Thank you Ajia for the warm welcome and contagious smile! I’ve always said that the managers SET THE TONE for the restaurant and JOSH is THE manager you would enjoy to have. He greeted us with great hospitality and made sure that everything was to our liking. This restaurant LACKED NOTHING. 10/10 will most definitely be back. Thank you. (of course i tried the dessert)

My husband and I are celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary at L’Auberge Casino Resort in Lake Charles, LA. We dined at Johnny Sanchez yesterday evening when we arrived and for breakfast this morning. The street tacos (tender sliced pork topped with a verde sauce, pickled onion, and pork skins) for Taco Tuesday were excellent. They were served with a side of well seasoned beans and rice. I took advantage of the seasonal 4 margarita flavored with coconut cream and pineapple. My husband ordered the carne asada with a margarita. For breakfast I ate the French toast topped with powdered sugar and strawberries with a side of bacon. My husband ordered a classic plate of eggs and opted for sausage, crisp potatoes, and a biscuit. Our servers were excellent both visits, specifically, Danielle C. She was prompt taking our orders and ensured we had an excellent dining experience. She was very friendly and practiced great customer service skills. The establishment itself was very clean, and I loved the environment. I would definitely dine there again and recommend Johnny Sanchez to others.

The atmosphere was so amazing. Every one of the staff members were so sweet and personable. I had the pleasure of having Gabe as a waiter and he was so sweet and kind. This place is extremely lucky to have him!

Great place to grab a quick lunch. They had a straight forward breakfast and lunch menu. The waitress told us that the dinner menu was a bit different. We had lunch, it was pretty good (see pics below). The bar looks to be a nice and relaxing place to sit and have a few drinks. Marquetta was our waitress she was great.

So glad we got to finally try this place! Last time they weren't open yet. The atmosphere was GREAT! The Bloody Mary's are absolutely amazing. Both days I had the classic Eggs Benedict, replaced the potatoes with grits... WOW! Some of the best Benedict I've ever had. My husband had the breakfast tacos and the potatoes one morning, they were delicious! The next day he had the Benedict made with chorizo and avocado. Everything was beyond delicious! And if Danielle is working, ask for her! She's so sweet, attentive and just a lot of fun. We will definitely be requesting her everytime from now on. Don't think, just eat here!..... TRISH! What can I say about Trish??? She's absolutely so much fun. Makes the BEST drinks and you're guaranteed to have an amazing experience. Again, TRISH & DANIELLE!

Most Amazing Service and Fajita meat!!!!! Stopped by and was looking to eat on a Keto diet. Eden the bartender/server recommended to get just the fajita meat so I did a trio of steak, chicken, and shrimp with a side of avacado. It was the best fajita meat I have ever eaten. Each meat hat it’s own unique flavor. It was so good I didn’t even eat the salsa verde....Thank You so much Eden for making the recommendations.. Hats off to the Chef...I will definitely be back here !!!!

Closer to home than the NOLA location so I decided to surprise my husband with JS. I loved the NOLA location "industrial type" atmosphere, but preferred this location's openness and central bar location. Service by Geneva (like the convention) was great. The drink I ordered was mixed very, very strong. Was better after my husband finished the first and I asked for a second, much less strong one. And the food, as expected, was fantastic. We started with the Pork Ribs Al Pastor then continued with the Ribeye for Mark and Braised Short Rib Tacos for me. We then ordered all of the desserts, so we could try each one (minus the tres leche). Pictured below are the Churros, Sopapillas, Mexican Wedding Cookies and the Key Lime Cake (it is listed on their new dessert menu-I don't recall the exact name). As we told the on-duty manager, food was better in this location than the NOLA location, better seasoning. We will definitely be back! *I would like to note that I would give all of the above 5 stars if the buttons worked.*

Came to celebrate my birthday with some friends. Absolutely delicious Mahi Mahi tacos. I watch Chef Aaron on Masterchef (I met him 2 years ago) and I know his standards for an elevated taco and this meal met them! Server was nice and attentive. I will be coming back!
