The food is frequently highlighted for depth of spice, balanced seasoning, and comforting choices like gumbo, jambalaya, and beignets, with drinks and beignets often singled out as must try. While some mentions note a lively vibe that can be loud at times and occasional service delays, the overall impression is of a memorable experience that makes guests eager to return.
Belle ambiance, le service était rapide. Côté nourriture, c'était inégal. Le poulet frit & gaufre était très bon. Le jambalaya était décevant (manquait d'épices & très petite portion pour le prix!!). L'entrée de calamars & crevettes frits était correcte. Le dessert était excellent. Les prix sont quand même élevés pour les portions.
It was our first time coming to this restaurant.
I absolutely loved the atmosphere & there was a little bit of live music for the beginning of our night but it ended halfway through our dinner because we went late.
The music is a little loud in my opinion, it was kind of hard to hear people speak even if they're across from you.
The food & drinks were absolutely delicious 10/10 i enjoyed every single thing i ordered!! We even got complimentary dessert shots when receiving our dessert, so fun!!
The service was extremely friendly however a little slow.. We asked for utensils when we got our mains as my boyfriend was missing his but had waited a good 6minutes before someone came to bring them.
We also asked for the bill to come with our dessert so we can pay right away & just leave but we waited a good 10minutes AFTER finishing our dessert before getting to pay.
I am optimistic that the speed will improve:)
Besides that, this was a great first experience & i will definitely be returning!

Le service, l'ambiance & la cuisine c'est toujours excellent avec le changement de chef, les plans sont un peu relever🥵 moi ça me convient très bien!
Le seul bémol c'est la cuisson de la viande rouge, quand tu demandes très saignant & tu la reçoit a point, Ben ça roule dans la bouche, je pense c'est un problème général dans la restauration!
Very well decorated resto Louisiana jazzy style! We had cocktails & we tried different dishes like the lobster spaghetti, the steak, jambalaya risotto, cod & jerk chicken! Everything was tasty but some dishes were a bit more salty. Otherwise, great ambiance with live saxophonist playing oldies & recent songs as well!
J'adore le concept de musiciens jazz pendant la soirée, cela apporte une belle ambiance! Le restaurant étant tres occupés avec plusieurs groupes, le service était plus lent que normalement, mais vu l'ambiance & la qualité des plats, nous sommes plus que satisfaits!
Très belle place, bonne ambiance style Nouvelle-Orléans.
Très bonne nourriture bien faite. Portion raisonnable pas trop grande juste ce qu'il faut.
Belle musique d'ambiance
Nathaniel was a very sympathetic host. He was very welcoming & friendly. The peach salad, beignet & beef was excellent. The jambalaya was good but too heavy on the salt. Nice jazz ambiance & lovely decor! I recommend!

I've been to this restaurant many times before. I always found the portions & the food amazing, but last time I went this week of May 3, it seems that there's a new chef. Portions are smaller, there's no more of that amazing bread that used to be served while you were waiting for your food, & many dishes were removed from the menu or changed to appetizers.
Disappointed!
Je suis allé avec mon conjoint deux fois & c'était vraiment parfait! Le service est rapide & courtois & la nourriture est délicieuse. Le restaurant est magnifique & l'ambiance est très bonne. Nous serons de retour!
Pour commencer, on avait une réservation à 18h30, mais notre table n'était pas prête avant 19h. On était un peu déçus de l'attente. Par contre, on a reçu des shooters gratuits pour compenser, ce qu'on a apprécié!
En entrée, j'ai pris les calmars frits avec crevettes : très bons, bien exécutés, avec un petit côté plus épicé qu'un classique. La mayo épicée était délicieuse 👌
Mon accompagnateur a pris des tacos au poulet jerk… qu'il a repris une deuxième fois tellement c'était bon! Très frais & super bien balancé côté saveurs.
En plat principal, j'ai choisi l'assiette de gumbo terre & mer: vraiment savoureux, bien assaisonné, bien saucé. Le riz était parfait & les crevettes cuites à la perfection. Pas trop épicé, juste comme il faut.
Mon accompagnateur a pris le poulet frit sur gaufre avec salade de chou : très bon! Le poulet était croustillant sans être gras, la gaufre légère & bien faite. Seul petit bémol : il aurait aimé un peu plus de sauce à son goût à lui!
Côté cocktails :
Les Bloody Caesar étaient bien relevés, & la margarita fruit du dragon & coconut était délicieuse! 🍹
Le service était aussi très bien 👍
👉 En résumé : malgré l'attente au début, très belle expérience globale. On y retournerait!

Bouffe tres goûteux en entrée & en plats principaux,bon drink.ça pris une quinzaine de minute avant d'avoir nôtre premier drink mais après le service a été très bon.on va y retourner c'est sur👌🏻
Had a wonderful evening with my beautiful wife… tried different items on the menu & really enjoyed the taste & presentation.
The service was attentive, friendly & the staff went out of their way to ensure we had an amazing experience… impeccable!
The atmosphere is lively… good loud music but you could have a conversation comfortably
Great experience at this place a few weeks ago. There are not many options (especially in Laval) for southern food, so they definitely fill that void.
The vibe is spot on.
We came as a large group & everyone enjoyed their food. No complaints there. A few dishes that were ordered: Jambalaya, fried chicken & waffles, Gumbo. Great quality.
The drinks were also spot on & cheap on a Thursday night.
My only complaint would be the portions - waffles are literally the cheapest thing you can make, & for the price, the fried chicken & waffle dish left me quite hungry. 2 tiny little waffles under a few fried chicken thighs? Albeit delicious, it was a little outrageous for the price tag.
I like the jambalaya & the desserts were great. The food here actually tastes good. It's the small portions that bother me (& it's not exactly cheap either).
The jambalaya balls were just ok, so was the fried calamari & shrimp & the mango fresca drink was not as fruity & tasty as I expected it to be. The'Bahama Mama' cocktail, however, was fantastic; it's rhum based & has ginger beer in it. I've been in love with that combo for years.
All in all, I give Louisinana a 7 out of 10. The desserts & my Bahama Mama are what's doing the heavy lifting for this grade.
