Review Summary

Bistro Nolah is widely celebrated for its authentic and flavorful New Orleans inspired Southern comfort food, with many diners praising the high quality of dishes like the fried chicken, smoked brisket, and shrimp and grits. While the intimate, cozy atmosphere and exceptional, attentive service are highlights for most visitors, the small space can occasionally become quite noisy or feel crowded. Although a few diners noted that some dishes lean towards being overly spicy and prices are on the higher end, the majority of guests consider it a top tier dining destination in the West Island. Reservations are highly recommended to secure a table, especially for their popular Sunday brunch, as the restaurant remains a frequent choice for special occasions and memorable meals.

We visited Bistro Nolah, a refined restaurant inspired by the rich & soulful cuisine of New Orleans, Louisiana. The name'Nolah' is a nod to NOLA (New Orleans, LA), & it's a fitting tribute-the flavors truly capture the spirit of the region.

The space is small & cozy, with a vibrant, energetic atmosphere. The lively background noise adds to the charm, creating a warm & animated dining experience without feeling overwhelming.

The menu is compact, but each dish is thoughtfully crafted. We began with the jambalaya arancini, served with a deliciously spicy sauce that lingered pleasantly on the palate.

For our main courses, we had the smoked brisket-exceptionally tender & beautifully seasoned-& the shrimp & grits. The shrimp had a bold, spicy profile, perfectly balanced by the smooth, comforting grit. Each bite was both satisfying & refined.

To finish, we shared the banana cheesecake flambéed with Jack Daniel's-rich, indulgent, & the perfect finale.

Bistro Nolah offers a more upscale dining experience, & while it comes at a higher cost, the quality, attention to detail, & overall atmosphere make it well worth it. I would gladly recommend it for a special occasion or a memorable evening out.

I had my wedding dinner here on May 22 2025. Customer service is A1! We dealt with Christopher Eamer from a year in advance to plan our day, & he graciously answered all my many questions! 😊 Christopher provided options in advance for people with food sensitivities. They allowed us to decorate the tables before we arrrived, & were so accommodating in allowing my guests & I to enter the restaurant an hour before their actual opening time in order for us to have some private time with our guests. 🙏 The waiters were very friendly & listened to our needs. The food was amazing! We had a personalized menu & everybody enjoyed what they ordered. Those hush puppies were unexpected & the bomb!! 😋. Guests from the US have promised to go back there on their next visit to Montreal. Thanks for everything Bistro Nolah!!

It is an unforgettable & amazing experience from appetizer to dessert. We had Jambalaya & Southern fried chicken as appetizers. We had southern style beef short rib & Duck Conflict in dirty rice as main. We had Banana Pecan Cheesecake & Bread Pudding in Bourbon sauce as dessert. We emptied everything & we will definitely visit again.
