Nous avons appelé notre restaurant Bistro Nolah, un diminutif de Nouvelle Orléans, par amour de la cuisine réconfortante servie dans le sud des États-Unis. Ce style de nourriture sera l'inspiration derrière certains plats qui seront servis chez Nolah.
Les avis convergent autour de Bistro Nolah, une expérience culinaire sudiste à Montréal, associant une cuisine créole et cajun authentique à une ambiance intime et chaleureuse rappelant la Nouvelle-Orléans. Les plats phares comme le gumbo, le shrimp and grits, la jambalaya, le fried chicken et le brisket bénéficient d'arômes riches et d'assemblages équilibrés, tandis que les accompagnements tels que les hush puppies et les beignets, ainsi que les desserts comme le bread pudding et le banana cheesecake flambé, font souvent l'unanimité. Le service est décrit comme attentif et professionnel et l'ambiance est conviviale, parfaite pour une soirée en amoureux, entre amis ou pour une célébration; la terrasse estivale est aussi très appréciée. Le brunch est fréquemment loué comme une excellente raison de revenir, même si certaines critiques soulignent que les informations sur les heures d'ouverture en ligne peuvent prêter à confusion et que le cadre reste petit et animé. Dans l'ensemble, la qualité constante, les portions généreuses et la présentation soignée convainquent les visiteurs de revenir, faisant de cet endroit une référence sur l'île.
Went to Bistro Nola for Breakfast on Sunday. I didnt have reservations. I sat at the bar. The food was very very good. I was surprised they didnt have fresh squeezed orange juice, & charged $7 for Tropicana OJ, but everything else was stellar. I had the Le Richard. 2 pieces of Fried chicken on French toast...a poached egg on a corn bread muffin, & some ham underneath the muffin, with home fries. Very good. Cooked perfectly.
They have a very well stocked bar too, good scotches & rums. I'm surprised Kalhua for their coffee liqueur, vs Barista from Montreal, very coffee forward coffee liqueur, vs Kalhua. But just offering suggestions.

The brunch was absolutely delicious, n flavourful even my kids loved the pancakes n fried chicken. A sweet charm of a place. Only small issue was that because the place is small i felt a bit rushed towards the end for other reservations. I will definately be going back for dinner & brunches.
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.

Cleanliness was a serious concern. The table was sticky, the floor was dirty, & the washroom was not maintained properly. It's hard to enjoy a meal when basic hygiene standards don't seem to be respected.
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!
Nourriture délicieuse & excellent service , c'était notre 2e visite!
La musique est trop forte à mon goût par contre.
On a hâte d'essayer le menu brunch la prochaine fois :)
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!
