Info & Location
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.

Service is always on point. The waiters are always attentive & nice. The food is not what it used to be. I had ordered the grits, mac & cheese, ceviche, brisket & beignets. The brisket & ceviche tasted very bland. The mac & cheese & grits were great but nothing special. Everything was just ok. It used to be really good & tasty. I missed the brunch that they offered back in the day. The food is the main reason that I have updated the overall ratings from 5 to 4* & food ratings from 5 to 3*.View more

Been meaning to go for a few months/since opening. No reservation, still was able to sit at the bar. Service was very good, great attention from our waiter(maybe owner/manager) & the bar staff. We ordered Mac & cheese & Jambalaya balls (special menu) & they were amazing, took shrimp creole & braised ribs for mains, both great dishes, shrimp creole was perfectly spiced, I am always worried when ordering shrimp but in a creole restaurant it's a must & was not disappointed. Braised ribs was tender & delicious. Drinks were made with fresh citrus juices & very tasty. Unfortunately no room for dessert. Atmosphere was welcoming nice music & good vibe. Would go back & would recommend. Did not take picture too existed to eat.View more

Very attentive service & the food was so flavoursome! If they have the banana cheesecake on the special menu, don't miss you chance!! It's hands down the best cheesecake I ever had! Thanks again for everything Bistro Nolah!View more

I happened upon a review from a resto I had dinner at a few weeks ago that was posted by "Dan" his pontificating & belly aching about being charged a few for not showing for a reservation , buddy .. you are not ready for fine dining stick to taverns & mcds, slandering a phenomenal restaurant because you can't keep a reservation is a whole new level of hillbilly entitlementView more

I just came on to leave a compliment to the team of Bistro Nolah & saw the complaint about being charged for late cancellation. As a hairdresser, I loose so much money every time a client doesn't show up. Without a 24 notice, we can't make up that money. You shouldn't be so upset if you were going to show up to your reservation, & if you weren't going to show up, then you should be made to pay the Restaurant's loss. The small businesses haven't recovered from covid yet, & people like you don't make it easy on us. You just gave one star.... What do you think that does for his business? If you don't want to go back, that is your prerogative,but don't make it any harder for the small businesses who are working so hard to keep their heads above water. I'm sorry you never got to experience the great food of Bistro Nolah, I've been there often & it's worth every penny. I wish you good luck.View more

Not the same as pre-pandemic & wasn't worth the price tag. No more amuse-bouche. How is covid responsible for that(excuse from waitress) Had to flag the waitress multiple times. Not busy, just distracted. Rice tasted like it was from chi-chi's or a can. Sausage was dry. They used to serve imported wine, now same stuff as SAQ. Chloé for crying out loud. Now there is nothing original nor good enough to overlook the parking lot terrasse. There are better places to spend +100$.View more

Long overdue post. The food was delicious.the fried chicken & crab cakes were amazing. The blackened fish was tasty, a little on the salty side but mouth watering & the dessert was decadent. A must if you’re looking for authentic New Orleans cuisine in Montreal.View more

As someone who has recently visited New Orleans, this resto was a nice reminder of that trip. It was not only fantastic food-wise, but the staff was attentive & super nice! It is a West-Island must try!View more

Seul chose , ne vous fiez pas à l’entrée extérieur elle manque franchement d’entretien on dirait même que le resto est fermé & même abandonné… pour le reste rien à dire , ça vaut la peine de franchir la forêt amazonienne avant d’arrivé à la porte principaleView more

A wonderful, original restaurant for when you want something different then the normal, Italian, Greek or American style food that is predominant in the West Island. My party enjoyed every part of their meals from appetizers (Hush Puppies, Fried Chicken, Jumbalaya, Sausage Gumbo) to dessert (Mud Pie, Chocolate Torte, Bread Pudding with Bourbon Sauce). Four out of five of us choose the Blackened Creole Shrimp (a special) as the main meal. It was very tasty.View more

A very good restaurant in the west of Montreal. But after a few times, you lack inspiration, because there isn't much item & new thing on the menu. & recently (early September 2023) prices have completely exploded, before they were acceptable. However, the service is always excellent & professional & food is good!!!View more

Dining at Bistro Nolah is an experience not to be missed if you appreciate superb & unique cuisine, excellent service, fair prices, & a friendly, but classy bistro setting. I have dined at Nolah on several occasions, & each time it just gets better! Their menu includes New Orleans-style dishes like beignets, hush puppies, jambalaya, gumbo, & so much more, with specials that change nightly. Last night my wife & I enjoyed a leisurely, romantic evening at the bistro; we had the best fried chicken either of us had ever tasted, as well as incredible hush puppies & a melt-in-your-mouth pork belly appetizer. We savoured every bite of our generous entrees of delicious shrimp & grits & blackened catfish. The Cajun flavours were complex & exciting, but not overpowering. Chef Richard has been tweaking his culinary skills & his knowledge of this style of cooking for over 30 years, & believe me, he has it down! A gem of a place to visit on the West Island!View more

There are good restaurants, very good restaurants, exceptional restaurants & then there is Bistro Nolah! Wow, this place just gets better & better.
I’ve been many times, & it has been consistent, but tonight, I see that they have perfected what I thought they already mastered! The fried chicken was melt-in-your-mouth perfection! My husband had the pork belly appetizer, & it did not disappoint.
The curry mussels were unbelievable, a sauce you will be thinking about for quite some time. I had the shrimp & grits as a main & my husband had the catfish. We both kept shaking our heads in disbelief as to how perfectly & carefully all the flavours came together flawlessly.
We have had many wonderful meals, this one will remain high on our list of the most unforgettable ones.
Excellent service from Cathy.
We will be back soon!View more
