CajunCreoleComfort FoodBistroContemporary/ModernAmericanGluten-free OptionsResto-Bar
We named our restaurant Bistro Nolah, an acronym for New Orleans, out of a love for the style of comfort food they serve down south. This style of food will be the inspiration behind some of the dishes we will be serving at Nolah.

Review Summary

Reviews portray Bistro Nolah as a cozy, welcoming spot with a warm New Orleans vibe and attentive service. The menu shines with Creole and Southern favorites such as gumbo, jambalaya, shrimp and grits, fried chicken, brisket, and catfish, with several dishes praised for being flavorful and well cooked. Brunch and tasting menus are highlighted by many guests, and desserts like bread pudding and banana cheesecake are frequently praised. The space is small and intimate, which can feel bustling at times but also adds to the charm; reservations are often recommended. Overall, Bistro Nolah delivers high quality, flavorful Southern dishes, a strong drinks program, and a memorable dining experience that makes guests eager to return for both brunch and dinner.

Honestly one of the best meals I've had in a long time. The chef prepared a special tasting menu for us & every dish was absolutely delicious, full of flavor, & beautifully presented. You could really taste the care & creativity in each plate.

The atmosphere was warm & inviting, & the service was attentive & friendly from start to finish. It truly felt like a special dining experience.

Thank you to the chef & the team for such a memorable meal. I will definitely be back & highly recommend it!

Amazing New Orleans, style restaurant! The food is always delicious, full of flavor, & perfectly cooked. The place has such a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable right away. Richard, the owner, is always super welcoming & friendly, which makes the experience even better. You can really tell he cares about his customers. Definitely a spot worth visiting if you love tasty food & a warm vibe! One of my favorite restaurant in the West Island.

I absolutely enjoyed every single meal at Bistro Nolah! First of all, I had no reservations & was assuming I could just show up & be seated as it might not be too busy on a Sunday night but to my surprise it was full! Regardless & irrespective of the fact that I was not expecting them to accommodate us, they were able to make it work! The service was great & the food was even better. Everything was so hot & fresh when it came out. We started with the Mac & cheese, fried chicken, jambalaya & gumbo. Everything was delicious, I found the gumbo a little strong on flavour for my preference but the fried chicken was decadent. Perfect amount of chicken to batter ratio, very fresh & delicious honey glaze to top it off. For mains, we went with the jerk shrimp grits & braised short ribs. Both were delicious! Lastly, for dessert we enjoyed the bread pudding which was also delicious! Overall I would go back over & over just for the amazing food & service. It was beautiful to experience a little bit of NOLA here in Montreal!

One of my absolute top spots on the island. From the warm, impeccable service (special shoutout to Chris), to the well?stocked bar & spot?on cocktails, to-most importantly-the magic coming out of Chef Richard's kitchen, everything is a 10/10. Portions are generous, every dish hits exactly how you want it to, & I genuinely dream about the shrimp & grits. No notes.

*********Be warned. Went on Sunday for lunch, they only have brunch offered. No where on the website do I see it stating this. Went for food on their menu & was stuck with brunch/breakfast. Not impressed. Thank you for the response. But when I see a restaurant that is open from 10am to 14pm on a website, I would consider going at 12pm being lunch. So if you were to update your website to specifically say there is only brunch, there wouldn't be any mistakes.

'Nolah is a total showstopper! The interior is absolutely beautiful-elegant enough for a special occasion but with a warmth that makes you feel right at home.

We started with the Sausage Gumbo, & the rich, dark roux was perfectly authentic. If you're a fan of Shrimp & Grits, their Charleston-style version is a must-try; the mascarpone-infused grits are incredibly creamy. Masha loved her ribs, & my Buttermilk Fried Chicken had the perfect balance of tenderness & a heavy-duty crunch.

We finished with the Bread Pudding with Bourbon Sauce (an absolute essential) & some airy, powdered sugar-dusted Beignets. It was easily one of the best Creole meals we've had. Highly recommended!'

No complaints, we enjoyed everything we ordered! The server was very attentive & helped us with our order by recommending which dishes to take & stopped us from ordering too much! The cocktail I ordered was good (but forgot what it was called). Id definitely come back for a date night, or a girls night out here! It was such a nice & intimate place, not too loud & i loved that they also have weekly specials!

Nous sommes allé pour un souper tôt un samedi alors que nous étions dans le coin. Quelle belle découverte! Un service hors pair & chaleureux. Des plats - croquettes de poisson, un des meilleurs Mac'n Cheeze qu'il m'est été donné de manger depuis longtemps, côte de boeuf, brisket de boeuf, Mud Pie & mousse au choco crème chantilly - exquis, balancés & parfaitement apprêtés. Leur cote Google de 4.8 au moment ou j'écris ces lignes n'est pas le fruit du hasard. Chaudement recommandé!
