Nathaniel est un serveur hors du commun 🤩 Il nous a bien conseillées dans le choix des cocktails & des plats. Le menu à $68 est un bon choix pour ceux qui veulent découvrir plusieurs plats!
Dommage qu'il n'y ait pas eu de Band ce soir là! Le choix de musique d'ambiance était tout de même très bien! 😍

Je vous dis & redit le décor & la nourriture sont EXCEPTIONNELS. On nous a réinvité, ma famille & moi même, pour revivre une expérience anniversaire comme il se doit & c'était MAGIQUE. L'attention aux petits détails (collier en perle, photo Polaroïd, le rassemblement des serveurs pour me souhaiter un anniversaire) à su faire toute la différence. Merci énormément Kodjo pour le parfait service & d'avoir rectifié le tire. J'apprécie énormément le geste & espère revenir bientôt pour tester d'autres de vos fameux plats.
On a testé le menu dégustation & c'était INCROYABLE (surtout les petits biscuits). Pas tous les plats étaient sur le menu original, donc c'était amusant d'être les goûteurs de la soirée. J'ai particulièrement aimé la salade de pêche, elle était divine. Je trouve ça dommage que le live band n'est pas présent en semaine plus tard en soirée, ils valent vraiment le détour.
Je crois sincèrement être tombée sur une mauvaise journée la première fois le jour de mon véritable anniversaire. La mauvaise expérience que j'ai vécu était une erreur de parcours & ne doit pas affecter la réputation de ce merveilleux restaurant. Je conserve tout de même mon ancien commentaire par transparence.
Pour éviter tout inconvénient, surtout pour les évènements importants, je vous conseille milles fois d'y aller en semaine avant 19h & de profiter du magnifique service de Louisinana
We had a great time & the food was really good but we were disappointed there were no live bands as promoted. Furthermore, they played all but Jazz music instead taking away from the atmosphere I was looking forward to.
« Le Louisiana est bien plus qu'un restaurant, c'est une véritable immersion. En tant que stratège, je suis immédiatement séduite par le décor qui'tient en amour' & crée une base visuelle magnifique. Les saveurs, quant à elles, tiennent leur promesse & nous font voyager.
Mention spéciale pour le live band & l'ambiance jazzy au saxophone : c'est l'âme du lieu. Comme je le dis souvent, il n'y a pas de décor sans sons ! J'adorerais voir cette animation plus régulièrement, car elle complète parfaitement l'ingénierie de l'expérience.
Le service était impeccable lors de ma visite avec une amie. Nous avons adoré nos plats & avons déjà hâte d'y retourner. Une adresse incontournable pour ceux qui cherchent la qualité & l'élégance.
Service très lent malgré que nous étions dans les tous premiers services.
Nous étions une table de 5.
Un peu cher pour ce que c'est. L'assiette de pâtes à 32$ était très petite. Les pâtes aux crevettes avaient genre 2 morceaux de crevettes coupées en quatre.
L'Espresso Martini était excellent par contre!
Malheureusement, il n'y avait pas de live band le vendredi. Ça l'aurait peut-etre justifié leur prix.
Amazing food (I truly don't understand the 1star reviews) lots of flavour & extremely friendly staff who were very professional & efficient. Amazing atmosphere & decor, when do the live bands play? Will be going back 100%

Loved the ambiance, beautiful decor & spotless space. Service was quick & courteous, thanks to our host Jeremy. The drinks were great. The food was decent, just not quite what I expected. Still, I'll definitely be back to catch their live jazz band after 19h.
We felt like we stepped off the streets of New Orleans: the décor is on point with festive beads, warm lighting, & even an area ready for a live band to bring that Bourbon Street buzz to life.
We started things off right with a complimentary biscuit & honey butter that was pure heaven - soft, warm, & dangerously addictive. Pair that with a couple of cocktails from their massive drink list, & you're off to a great start. (Seriously, whoever's behind that bar knows what they're doing.)
For entrées, we tried the shrimp & grits & the Cajun shrimp tacos - both were flavorful, satisfying, & beautifully presented.
Our mains - the Jambalaya & the Gumbo - had great taste & were packed with that Southern spice, which we love, but came with a little too much rice, which filled us up way too fast. Considering the prices, that did leave us wishing for a slightly more balanced portion.
Now, about that live band: we love that they're keeping the vibe lively, but being seated literally a foot away from them made it hard to enjoy our meal (or conversation). Plus, the music wasn't exactly jazz or anything particularly Louisiana-themed - which felt like a missed opportunity. Maybe save those tables for the dance floor & lean into that NOLA playlist a bit more!
All in all, we really like the concept of @restaurant_louisinana - the vibe, the décor, the cocktails, & the energy are all there. & since the front of their menu proudly says'Constantly reworked', we have faith they'll fine-tune the experience to match the promise of the theme.
This place has all the right ingredients to become Laval's own little slice of the Bayou - just needs a bit of that finishing spice! 🌶?💜💛💚
Went here for the first time with a group of people on Saturday October 25. Reservation was for 2030. As we were waiting for our reserved table I saw many large groups there celebrating birthdays.
Live jazz band, beautiful decor. Music was very loud for us, couldn't talk to each other without yelling.
Food & drinks took a very long time to come out, first round of drinks we received at 2125 our mains arrived at 2200, half the table received main courses while the other half had to wait another 15 minutes. Dessert was served at 2305. Water glasses left empty for long time between refills. Didn't see our waitress for almost an hour so I had to get up from the table & go to bar to refill my own glass, waitstaff went around me as I was pouring my own water behind the bar! Manager just stood there not helping. He didn't help bring out orders or come to any table to make sure things were going well (as this is a newer restaurant this is a must). Our table reservation was for 2030 we paid & left at 2350, on their website under reservations it says'A maximum time of 2hours will be allotted for each reservation. After 2 hours, the table must be released. Thank you for understanding' maybe we needed to place our food order when we made the reservation?
The bathrooms need better signage, as I entered the woman's bathroom there was an inebriated male guest in there with three women telling him that this is women's restroom. Male guest was arguing that the men's had only stall whereas the women's had three. I had to raise my voice at him to get him to leave the women's bathroom.
One of my friends tried to speak with the manager about some issues & she was blown off, was told'I don't have time to hear this, send me an email' Uhm so what is his job then? Doesn't help waitstaff or kitchen, doesn't help customers when they are in need, but he does have time to go out for a smoke break every 20 minutes?
All in all I do not recommend this restaurant, food was mediocre, staff was less than, the manager is absolutely incompetent. This place is run very poor.

The concept is original but work is required to make this a must stop.
Starters were below average, main dish was barely meeting expectations & service was very long - i had ordered cocktails & our glasses (cocktails & water) were empty for a long time.
We sat at 9, ordered the food around 9:30 & reveived our food at 10:45! Our waitress was polite & did her best but overall service was not meeting expectations, very long & simply below average.
Jazz band was a nice touch but we could barely hear ourselves talk (maybe tone down the volume a bit). But it was nice!
I wanted to spend money but they failed to capitalize on that.
Final verdict: Not meeting expectation, food was not spiced adequately (portions were generous).
My overall rating reflects a 4 out of 10 experience & i would not recommend for now.
Je suis tombé sur le resto par pur hasard un mercredi & c'est rare que je dise que je tombe en amour avec une place de cette manière. Ça m'a rappelé mon roadtrip en Louisiane ! La nourriture est juste incroyable le staff vraiment gentil & en plus le band était incroyable ! Déjà hâte d'y retourner !!!
Really nice for the most part (cajun dishes are always nice, really) ; it reminded me of like a Downtown Disney or other theme park restaurant.
Having a jazz band was nice touch.
The service was pretty bad, though - very slow; we got a damged menu; we didn't get water without trying to flag down the waiter 4 times, he seemed new & unfamiliar with the menu but not with a humble vibe either. It was like trying to order fast food in a crowded place.

Une soirée inoubliable ! À refaire très bientôt ! L'incontournable qui est devenu mon spot favori à Laval Bravo à toute l'équipe ! Malheureusement pas de vidéo du band . J'avais choisi ce resto pour mon anniversaire & tous mes 25 invités ont adorer ! Il manquait un resto de ce genre au Centropolis !
Super découverte ! J'ai eu un immense coup de coeur pour ce restaurant! La cuisine d'inspiration Nouvelle-Orléans est à la fois raffinée & réconfortante.
Chaque bouchée est un mélange parfait d'épices & de générosité. Service attentionné & ambiance conviviale, j'y retournerai sans hésiter pour y manger lorsqu'il y a le band sur place pour profiter de la musique dans se fabuleux décor!
Très beau restaurant avec un personnel très accueillant.
L'ambiance, le décor, le band & la musique nous a projeté en Nouvelle Orléans.
C'est un excellent concept de restaurant. Nous étions dépaysé.
Le service était impeccable.
La cuisine était délicieuse avec de généreuse portion.
Merci au propriétaire ainsi qu'à sont personnel pour la petite attention qu'ils ont fait à l'occasion de la fête de ma conjointe.
Nous avons passé une très belle soirée.
Nous allons revenir.
Merci
