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.
Nice decoration & atmosphere but they only played Jazz music for about an hour so it lost its vibe. Food was good but no wow factor. Will not go back nor recommend it to anyone.

I went on a Thursday night & had such a great experience.
There was a live singer who added the perfect ambiance-you could really enjoy the music while still being able to have a conversation, which made it ideal for a relaxed evening.
The food was absolutely amazing-very flavorful & well prepared. Just a heads-up: the menu is inspired by New Orleans Creole cuisine, so some dishes can be on the spicier side if you're not used to it.
We tried the tacos, pasta, & jambalaya, & everything was delicious & full of flavor.
Overall, I really enjoyed this place & would definitely recommend it for a date night!
Had the 4 course meal, gumbo, spaghetti, jambalaya & cheesy grits.
All missing salt, shrimps on the jambalaya had no seasoning, grits were as bland as they come.. spaghetti had very little flavor.. I came here for major flavor but did not get it.
Service was very long but its okay because the decor & music was great.
The beignet was the highlight of everyone's meal.
High end prices should be rewarded with high-end meal. Kitchen should be tasting before they send the food.
Had dinner with friends there but music was a bit loud to hear one another. Our waiter was very kind & when asked to try to lower the volume it was done. Food & drinks were delicious. Our server was 10/10 attentive & making sure we are good.
Je n'ai que de bons mots pour ce restaurant. Je suis allée hier soir avec une amie & C'est une belle découverte . La nourriture est excellente , épicée & goûteuse à l'antillaise même , le lieu est convivial avec une ambiance festive . Le décor nous transporte en louisiane . La musique est à une bonne intensité, pas bruyant , on ne sent pas dérangé . Je suis une cliente très satisfaite & je reviendrai à coup sûr très bientôt !!!! & évidemment une soirée où les musiciens seront là . Donc je le recommande à 300%.

We were invited back by the owner for a second visit to this restaurant tonight. I can tell you they did not disappoint. The staff was on point, our server Jeremy was polite, quick & super professional I would give 6 star if I could.
I ordered the shrimp cocktail which came with 4 good sized shrimp & a nice home seafood sauce & the seafood pasta dish, full of fresh perfectly cooked clams, mussels & shrimps & the perfect balance of flavour & spice.
Rhum & coke severe in style with a glass of rhum on the rocks & a shooter of cola along side.
Finally the vibe was really well blended into the night, decor music & overall ambiance of a loud busking restaurant.
P.s the beignets are a must try aswell as the biscuits.
I will definitely be returning to this restaurant with a clients, family & friends
Amazing experience, food & service were on point.
The decor is just insane, music is excellent.
One of the top experience i had in a long time.
Her waitress Rose was amazing.
Nous avons réservé une table pour 4 personnes le samedi 8 novembre à 21h00 , & nous étions 3 à fêter notre anniversaire.
D'abord quelle déception lorsqu'à 9h30 les musiciens Live ont terminé leur set & sont partis . Si on nous avait avertis que la musique Live terminait aussi tôt , nous aurions réservé de bonne heure .
Ensuite , nous sommes 2 à avoir commandé la Jambalaya. Nous avions hâte de goûter ce plat typique de la Louisiane . J'ai demandé au serveur ce qu'était'l'andouille' & il m'a dit que c'est un saucisse piquante , sans plus d'explications sur le plat. Quelle surprise quand l'assiette est arrivée & nous y avons goûté . Les 2 , nous n'avions jamais mangé un riz aussi piquant . Ce n'est pas la saucisse qui était piquante mais le riz . Impossible de manger , je pense que le chef a échappé le pot d'épices dans sa recette . Nous avons demandé un plat pour emporter les 3/4 de l'assiette . Personnellement , j'ai essayé de le manger le lendemain à la maison mais c'ètait beaucoup trop piquant .
Extrêmement déçue par la cuisine . Si ce plat doit être vraiment si piquant , Il faudrait au moins penser à l'écrire sur le menu & aviser les clients lorsqu'ils le commandent.
Suite à la réponse du restaurant , j'ai envoyé un courriel à l'adresse qu'on m'a donné dans la réponse ( plus bas ) . & bien , depuis on ne m'a pas tout simplement pas contactée .
Vraiment spécial comme service clientèle ...

Went with another couple on a Friday night. 8:30 reservation
Parking** was full & had to park at the nearby cinema, the atmosphere** was very nice, but a little too loud for me. but i understand that the environment is musical. the food** was good , but the service** was not good, the waiter was polite but it would have been great if he was bilingual, we had a 2 course meal (appetizers & main course) they took away our plates & utensils after the appetizers, we waited a very very long time between courses & when they brought the main course they forgot to give us utensils which was quite frustrating. the waiter placed utensils directly on the table & didn't notice that we didn't have napkins, when I asked for napkins the waiter give us 3 napkins --- we were 4 people -- this is a staff management/workflow issue that i hope they resolve. the price** was ok for what we got. I saw on the entrance door that they are affiliated to some other restaurants (Jack Flat BBQ & Sergiolino one) , I most probably won't go back. -- I probably won't go to the affiliated restaurants either, since they are probably managed the same way (service wise)
Perfect spot for a romantic & intimate night out. The service is absolutely suberp. We had made a mistake & reserved for Sunday instead of Saturday & even though the place was full for the night they were able to find us a spot (even though it was completely our mistake & were more than willing to go somewhere else seeing that the restaurant was jam packed). Everything was so flavourful, drinks hit the spot, & that added touch of live music made for a perfect night out.
Very good taste of food. Different culture definitely need to try! Demi was our waitress & she was amazing. The atmosphere was wonderful with the jazz group & their music. Definitely recommend!

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.

I had such a wonderful time at this restaurant. The vibe is warm & welcoming, & the ambiance is amazing, especially with the live music. We came as a big group to celebrate an anniversary, & the musician even came over to play the birthday song on his saxophone. He was fantastic & made the night extra special.
The food was absolutely delicious, & the portions were very generous. I couldn't even finish my meal & had to take the rest home. I highly recommend the shrimp cocktail. It was perfectly cooked & tasted amazing.
Our waiter, Jeremy, was efficient, attentive, & provided excellent service throughout the night.
Overall, it was a memorable dining experience, & I'd definitely come back again. Highly recommend!
The food was simply delicious. The servers were nice & fast. We will come back for sure. The music wasn't loud also so we were able to talk to each other.
