Les clients découvrent une approche directe des plats réconfortants qui privilégie les saveurs robustes et les méthodes de préparation traditionnelles. Les plats signatures incluent souvent des beignets frits et des sandwichs po-boy aux crevettes qui représentent le patrimoine culinaire varié du sud des États-Unis.

Bistro Nolah est largement considéré comme une destination de choix pour savourer une cuisine cajun et créole authentique inspirée de la Nouvelle Orléans dans le West Island. Les clients louent régulièrement la qualité et les saveurs des plats tels que les crevettes aux gruaux, le brisket, le poulet frit et les beignets, soulignant le soin apporté à chaque assiette. Bien que l'atmosphère intime et chaleureuse ainsi que le service attentionné soient très appréciés, certains convives mentionnent que l'espace peut devenir bruyant et parfois exigu. Malgré quelques commentaires sur une épice parfois trop prononcée ou des prix élevés, la grande majorité des visiteurs décrivent une expérience mémorable et excellente, revenant fréquemment pour profiter tant du brunch que du souper.
I went for dinner with my husband last night & wanted to try this restaurant for the first time. We were pleasantly surprised that there actually was a good number of options for gluten-free food as my husband cannot eat gluten. Overall, they do not have a massive menu selection to choose from, but in this case I think it's quality over quantity (a very good thing) - the items they do have on the menu they can really focus on making sure it comes out with great quality: excellent presentation, flavor, etc. The alcoholic beverages (cocktails) are very pricy but do taste great & aren't watered down. The overall ambiance of the place is cozy & the noise level is acceptable for a bar-restaurant. However, had I known better, I would not sit at the table which is directly under the AC unit again (it drips a lil bit of condensation) - that was the only minor issue I had with the whole experience (& kinda my fault for picking the spot before realizing about the AC dripping). Bistro Nolah - if you guys are reading this, maybe move that particular table a bit further out from the wall so the AC unit cannot drip on the table directly below it. The staff are friendly, welcoming, helpful in answering any questions we had about the food, attentive (checking if everything is to our liking, asking if we need/want anything else, etc. at reasonable intervals), & also bilingual which I appreciated (I do speak/understand a bit of basic French, but English is still my main language). We were provided with 1 bread roll per person with their special chipotle butter (? I think) & I got to enjoy both 😅 (I did feel a bit bad for my husband missing out). For appetizers, my husband got a creamy corn soup & I got the boneless fried chicken. The corn soup was creamy, savory & refreshing (I took a lil taste test) & the chicken was fried to perfection - tender & crispy with a nice sweet & mildly spicy sauce drizzled on it. For the main entrée, we both went for the Beef Short Ribs with mashed sweet potato & vegetables which we both enjoyed. For dessert, my husband got the gluten-free Chocolate Torte, & I went for another round of the boneless fried chicken as strange as that might be (I'm trying to eat less sweets & the chicken was just too good for me to not to get seconds). I wanted to give my compliments/thanks to the chef(s) at the end because I was very impressed with how delicious everything was. We had an enjoyable evening here & would recommend this cozy lil bar-restaurant.

Absolutely blown away by the quality of the food! From the moment we stepped into the venue the service from our waiter was outstanding, explaining the different dishes in great detail. The food is just in a different class by itself. Chef Richard truly makes every item on your plate mouthwatering good, let aside the presentation which is top notch. I can't remember having ever been so flabbergasted by a restaurant as by bistro Nola today. This place deserves a michelin star!
I've been hearing nothing but great things about this place for a while & the ratings were quite high, but my level of disappointment, even higher. People claim it's extremely authentic Cajun food, as do the people who work there; nothing could be further from the truth. Service was fine, atmosphere was okay as well, however, the food left much to be desired. We ordered three different appetizers consisting of the fried chicken, the gumbo, & the pork bellies. I can't say that any one of them had any kind of an authentic Cajun flavor, & the chicken wasn't even on par with PFK, which is just basic fast food. It was served with some type of a honey glaze & it wasn't tender, just overcooked & crusty. The pork bellies were nothing to write home about either, not great tasting & the texture left much to be desired. I had high hopes for the gumbo, but it had a strangely familiar flavor, anything but Cajun & anything but good. Finally, we ordered the brisket... & it was a huge disappointment...texture was fine, but that's about it, taste, just not there. The drinks were good, but we didn't go for that. It's not somewhere I would visit again. Too bad, because there are very few Cajun restaurants in this city & I was looking forward to a fantastic meal.
I loved it!!! The server knew the menu pretty well & made some great suggestions. The food was fabulous, well seasoned. The vibe was nice. Definitely, I would want to come back UpDATE>>>>Back for BRUNCH & it's still my fave spot in down!!! The Grits were my highlight so creamy so yummy so PERFECT. My only negative.... it was mad cold in the restaurant...the terasse is not up yet
Great place with amazing food & service. Service is always great, very nice & knowledgeable people who can make arrangements for your food. Food itself is delicious, they always have different specials & the amount you get is definitely enough. Love this place!
