Enjoyed pickles and hush puppies to start.
Fried gator was delicious.
Only shame is you can’t have your catfish fillets done three ways.
Interesting hush puppies are complementary, a bit on the sweet side with an occasional fleck of jalapeno for an interesting flavor without being spicy. Pretty greasy as are the fries, probably due to frying at too low a temperature.
Big Pines Lodge is the most beautiful restaurant on Caddo Lake! If you’re looking for unforgettable waterfront dining, this place is a must-visit. The deck overlooking the bayou is absolutely stunning—perfect for a peaceful meal or enjoying the view with friends.
The portions are generous—easily enough for two people. The crispy fries are made from real potatoes, and the “little” chicken fried steak? It’s a monster! I got two full meals out of it. The salad bar is a rare gem in this area, especially when fresh veggies can be hard to find nearby—so appreciated!
The service is friendly and welcoming, and you can tell the new owners genuinely care about the experience and are building a great culture. Guests often just hang out, enjoy the atmosphere, and have a good time. They also host local live music, which they promote on their Facebook page, so keep an eye out if you’re planning a visit.
Whether you’re staying nearby or just passing through, Big Pines Lodge is a top spot for southern comfort food on Caddo Lake. Highly recommend!
Amberlee, our waitress, was very attentive and helpful.
I was a little hesitant to order sweet tea, cuz let’s be honest, nobody makes it better than mama. I went out on a limb and ordered it anyway. Wasn’t made like mama’s, but it was delicious.
Me and my date ordered a four piece whole catfish dinner and a side of okra.
I liked the catfish, it tasted fine, however I didn’t like how they cut slits in the sides. If I would’ve known that then I would’ve just ordered the fillets.
The fries and okra were also good.
The hush puppies were big and sweet, Wish they had a little bit more of a jalapeño kick, but they were still good.
Overall, it was a good experience. Service was great and the view was very enjoyable, watching the boats pass by.
We’ll definitely be back.
It is also family owned and operated by some great people who came out to check on everyone to make sure everything was perfect.
