Long time customers, over two decades. Food has unfortunately continued to deteriorate. Our favourite dish, panned breast of chicken, this last visit had a completely watered down sauce, used to be a rich, creamy roasted red peppercorn that paired amazing with the chicken. There were no veggies on the plate anymore, used to come with green beans. The original dish was the ultimate comfort food. No bread or corn muffins provided anymore for the table. Sweet potato fries changed to large wedges, not great for sharing. Fried chicken also extremely salty. Unfortunately, won't be coming back. Shouldn't have messed with perfection.
We gushed the whole walk home. We were so delighted with La louisiane! ...from the instant warm greeting & seating, to the subdued, cozy lighting, the chill vibe, the cool song playlist, super friendly & attentive staff...
To the delicious filled-to-the-brim pitcher of Sangria... The EXCEPTIONAL gumbo, & wonderful mains (blackened chicken & seafood jambalaya) - being from Nova Scotia, we overly salt everything- the seasonings were so en pointe, we didn't even ask for a shaker!
Then the incredible creme brulee - generous thick crackle on top, & perfect cream centre - yum!!!
We'll be returning soon to have the gumbo again, try some different mains, & indulge in the double chocolate pecan pie with ice cream - can't wait! What a gem. Highly, highly recommend!
& by the look of the other guests enjoying their meals, we weren't alone in our joy.
Thanks, la Louisiane. You do it right!!
With 20% tip & tax, we each paid $84, were very full, & took generous leftovers home!

Local Resident Forced to Endure Another Flawless Meal
I returned to La Louisiane tonight, fully prepared to find a single flaw so I could finally feel something other than pure culinary bliss. Unfortunately, the kitchen remains committed to ruining my streak of pessimism.
The'Audacity' of the Evening:
The Food: Just as incredible as last time. It's honestly rude. How am I supposed to enjoy mediocre takeout ever again when this level of flavor exists? The chef clearly has a personal vendetta against my willpower.
The Service: Absolutely wonderful. Our server had the nerve to be attentive, charming, & timed everything perfectly. I tried to find a reason to be annoyed, but they wouldn't even give me the satisfaction of a lukewarm water refill.
The Atmosphere: Still perfect. Disgusting.
Verdict: If you enjoy being treated well & eating food that makes you want to weep with joy, I suppose you should come here. Personally, I'm exhausted by the excellence. 10/10, I'll be back next week to suffer through another five-star experience.
It's very rare that you eat at a restaurant that from the appetizer to dessert. Its five stars La Louisiane is that restaurant. Let's start with the appetizers hush puppies that were delicious with a wonderful horseradish red sauce. The beer battered shrimp was fresh. Wonderful tasting. The cornbread was so good. We had to order two orders.
Main course we ordered the Cajun chicken with mashed potatoes. Wonderful! The mashed potatoes are filled with garlic. Lots of butter, the chicken was so soft that you can cut it with a fork. You did not need a knife & it was nice & crispy & spicy on the outside.
Wonderful fried Chicken! & the french fries were nice & crispy. All fresh made. The dipping gravy was delicious.
Dessert we have to eat it all. We started off with banana Foster. Huge portion, delicious sauce. Very good vanilla ice cream. The creme brulee nice & fatty, & the beignets damn. They were good with two sauces caramel & chocolate & the beignet was nice & heavy just like you get in New Orleans which I have been to New Orleans.
This is my new favorite spot to go to. I'm so happy I found out about them. I will definitely be telling people about it, & going back.

Food was really well seasoned & tasty. Prices are really not bad considering what you get. The banana foster dessert was insane, the fries are seasoned with Cajun seasoning & are really good too. The service we got was also friendly & quick. Would definitely go again!
Delivery: jambalaya was good, wish they replaced the zillions of mussels with different seafood though. The shrimps were nice.
Friend chicken was disappointing, too salty & slightly charred.
Bread pudding was delicious. Perfect texture & sweetness with that sauce even after travel time.
My husband & I have been going to this place for over 10 years , this was the first time the food disappointed us. The shrimps were really small & over cooked , the sauces had changed & tasted canned . The sweet potato fries were wedges overly coated in nutmeg & cinnamon so much so I couldn't finish even one. Plus the menu was cut in half , not sure what's going on but it's not the same restaurant as it was ☹? service was excellent but the meal took forever to arrive. Would think twice of going back sadly.
This place was very tasty! We first came for a friend's birthday & had an amazing experience. The service was top notch & our waitress was fantastic.
We came back a second time with my husband to treat my brother-in-law & it was just as great. We ordered the mussels, blackened fish, steak, & jambalaya. Everything was absolutely delicious. & those killer spicy spiked lemonades? So good we're still talking about them.
Just like our first visit, the service stood out again. Our waiter was friendly, fun, & super attentive. The bar has a great vibe & we loved the open kitchen setup, great touch.
Really cute soot with a very nice outdoor terasse. A unique type of cuisine to montreal, & very delicious! the sweet potato fries are amazing! Service was very good.
First came to this restaurant when I lived in Montreal in 2000, & in what in recent years has become an annual pilgrimage features coming here again. & again. The food, friendliness, & ambiance make this a highlight of each visit to Montreal.
