Review Summary

Bistro Nolah is widely regarded as a standout destination for authentic New Orleans inspired Cajun and Creole cuisine in the West Island. Guests frequently praise the flavorful, high quality dishes such as the shrimp and grits, brisket, fried chicken, and signature beignets, often highlighting the impressive attention to detail in every course. While the intimate, cozy atmosphere and warm, attentive service are major draws for many, some diners note that the space can become quite loud and occasionally feel crowded. Although a few reviewers found certain dishes to be overly spicy or prices to be on the higher side, the overwhelming majority of visitors describe their experience as memorable and top notch, frequently returning for both brunch and dinner.

Great meal. I didn't call before hand to ask about their GF options on the menu & I was afraid I couldn't eat anything since there wasn't any suggestions or possible replacements. Our waiter Chris was quick to answer my questions regarding what could be offered. Thank you for checking back & forth with the kitchen, listening, double checking again, & being honest. I will definitely come back. The service was fantastic!!!

Wow, everything was perfect! The shrimp & grits were incredible. The death by gumbo was amazing. All the appetizers were also incredible, drinks were perfect. The service was second to none. I highly recommend this restaurant, it's really hard to beat.

Definitely one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. The boulettes jambalaya with jalapeno sauce as appetizer, shrimp & grits as a main, & *divine* bread pudding dessert are a must. The banana cheesecake dessert is a must try when they have it on the menu. Cocktails are perfection & the staff is lovely... can't recommend more!
