So we were on the Crossroads festival in Kinder and on the way home we stopped in Lake Charles to shop and to have lunch. We are eating the Mediterranean Veggie and Classic Cajun. We asked to split one, because I am on a diet unfortunately and my friend eats little. One of the best pizzas I had. Cierra and Scott are super nice and very friendly! The pizza is delicious! They have finishes you can request on your pizza once done and those are free of charge. The environment is pleasant and clean .
Thank you for the wonderful experience.
I am definitely coming back once I am off this diet ( end of July 2025) and will have a full sized pizza.

Excellent pizza that is cooked to order, but doesn’t take long. Clean dining area and friendly staff make this a great spot for lunch.

We are a family of four and ordered a BBQ chicken, Pepperoni pizza, Thai wings, BBQ wings, and cheese bread and a large family salad. Dannie made sure we were taken care from the time we walked in (first time eating here) until we left (showed us the take out boxes)

I am still shaking my head in disgust and disbelief as I write this. I wish I could give this place zero stars. If you value your health, your appetite, or your sanity, DO NOT EAT HERE. I have never in my life experienced such a horrific, unsanitary, and negligent dining situation.
My family and I visited [Insert Pizza Place Name] recently, thinking we were in for a casual, nice night out. The experience turned into a nightmare.
The Horror Show
About halfway through our meal, I took a large sip of my drink (a fountain lemonade). I felt something strange on my lips, thought it was a piece of ice, and took a closer look. It wasn’t ice. It was a large, dead cockroach floating in my cup. I screamed, immediately gagged, and the horror of what I had just drank from set in.
Unsanitary Environment
Before the drink incident, we actually noticed a few small flies flying around the table, but we ignorantly brushed it off. Now I realize they were warning signs. A cockroach floating in a drink is not just a “fluke”—it is a major red flag indicating a severe, uncontrolled infestation. If a roach is in a drink dispensed from the kitchen, it means their ice machine, soda fountain, or drink station is completely infested.
Management’s Apathy
When I called the manager over and showed them the drink, I expected an apology, a comped meal, and perhaps an immediate closure of the restaurant to handle this. Instead, the manager looked at it, acted like it was no big deal, and offered to get me another drink. Are you kidding me? Who would ever drink anything from that establishment again? The lack of urgency or care was perhaps more disturbing than the bug itself.
Conclusion
We left immediately, and I felt sick to my stomach for the rest of the night. Do not let the “decent” reviews fool you—this place is a health hazard. I am reporting this incident to the local Health Department immediately to ensure this does not happen to anyone else.
Stay away. If you see a roach in a restaurant, it means there are hundreds more you don’t see. This place needs to be shut down and thoroughly cleaned.

We visited this pizza establishment last weekend while celebrating my 15 year old’s birthday. There were 11 of us and the staff and owner or manager were very accommodating and super friendly. He allowed us to bring in my son’s cookie cake from the cookie place there in the mall. The pizza was DELICIOUS. We liked it so much that when we finished our shopping and movie at the mall, we went back and ordered 2 more pizzas to take home for dinner. Great call on the Gouda on the swamp daddy and thank you for recommending the fig-n-awesome it was figgin awesome! Seriously we were really relieved that the pizza was so tasty but I can’t even describe just how friendly and nice the staff are. Worth a trip just to be spoiled by them 🙂 thx you guize! Especially for letting us take over the large table. We couldn’t eat/celebrate at our apartment because the grandparents can’t make it up my stairs so we are super grateful for how sweet y’all are. A+

I love this place as I can customize my pizza of my own Choice and can add ingredients which I love and avoid the ones, I don’t like . Crust is crispy and post prepared addition of olive oil and cilantro is a plus . I always eat shrimp as protein and my kids use crawfish.

I recently visited Pizza Artista on their BOGO Tuesday nights and I want to share my terrible experience. While standing in line for about 12 mins behind what seemed to be online orders because no one was in front of me. I am finally acknowledged to have my order taken. I have two create your own pizza to be made. We move down the line, get our toppings and our pizza’s are walked over to be baked in the oven. I take a seat at the table right in front of the cash register so I am to see and hear everything that is transpiring while I wait. We sit there waiting for another 25 mins for our pizza’s to be ready. Anthony the MOD (I guess) is running around all flustered because of the 8 people that were in the restaurant and the probably 5 online orders. I watched employee number 1 take my pizza out of the oven and tell Anthony(MOD) that my pizza was a remake when he took it out of the oven. Anthony(MOD) says a remake for what? Employee 1 says to him because it is burnt. His own employer could see that it was and should have been corrected but Anthony (MOD) looks at it non shallot and says it’s fine! Employee 1 leaves pizza’s on rack waiting to be boxed. Meanwhile another 10 mins goes by before my name is called by Anthony (MOD) to get finishes on the pizza’s before boxing. I look at the pizza and I tell him that they are indeed burnt and I don’t want it. He stands their for a minute and then proceeds to tell me that if I want him to remake me another pizza that I would have to go back to the back of the line and wait for another 20 mins for the remake! Excuse me so this my fault right? I told him it is burnt and I am not going to pay for that. He says well they are buy one get one free anyway. I said so you think that is a quality pizza right there and that I should have to pay for it? By this time people are watching as we go back and forth because again Anthony was acting like it was my fault that my pizza’s are burnt. With no apologies or care at all, and because patrons now watching us, he says what finishes do you want ma’am ? I said again I am not paying for that, he sets pizza on window for me to take so I will leave. Because at this point he just wants me gone. Such poor customer service! I want to say that when I first walked in I noticed the writing on the canvases on the walls, it’s says we pride ourself on quality and Freshness, well not their manager Anthony ! He could care less about my experience, or making things right, or if I ever returned back to their restaurant again. Do better Pizza Artista in lake Charles .

One of the new pizza places in town they have excellent locations and pretty good service
Pros: Really good ingredients and very fast service they have many employees and they are quite friendly young people so they work really hard and fast. They can get really busy because they’re right at the mall. They close late into the night so that is perfect because you can bring your family in late. Perfect place for the kids and is family friendly. They have rewards programs and many promotion they really big on community engagement.
Cons: You can be away if there has been any orders in front of you. The price can be a bit much But I guess it worth the wait and the service. A drink station is quite small and you may have to wait for your turn
