Took my mother to Bistro Nolah for Mother’s Day and had a really great experience. The food was amazing — everything was fresh, flavorful, and cooked perfectly. You can tell they really care about the quality of the dishes. Also want to give a shoutout to our waiter, the younger guy who served us. He was super kind, funny, and really knew the menu well. He helped us decide what to order and all his recommendations were spot on. He honestly made the experience even better. Definitely a place I’d come back to.

We absolutely enjoyed Bistro Nolah, one of the best restaurants that we have tasted in a long time. We had Hush Puppies (Cornbread) and Fried Chicken for appetizers. The fried chicken was really flavourful down to the very fibre of the chicken. For dinner, we ordered the shrimp and grits, pan seared scallops (special on the menu) smoked brisket. And for dessert, we had the beignets (the best donuts that you will ever taste in your whole life). Every single course of the meal which they make completely in house including the bread and the special butter was absolutely gorgeous and extremely flavourful that wakes up every single taste bud in your palate. And our waiter Chris was very attentive and fantastic to us. One of our children has Celiac disease and cannot eat gluten so he could not eat any of the appetizers except one (Chris was also very knowledgeable about the gluten and the non-gluten menu choices as well btw.) and had to wait for his main dish which took a bit of time to arrive as the night was quite busy. When we asked if our child can have his plate first before the rest of us, Christ promptly went to the kitchen and got our child's dish to serve it to our child. And he even remembered that my child might not be used to the spiciness in the dish and they set the spicy sauce on the side so not to make the dish too spicy for him. My child ordered the Blackened Catfish and it was so delicious my child finished every single morsel on his plate even the vegetables asparagus. He finished the food so fast we couldn't even take a photo. We are so glad that we found this place which is nestled away in a small plaza. It's one of our most enjoyable gastronomical experience inside a beautifully decorated dining room. It's our first time visiting this restaurant and tasting Southern comfort food New Orleans. We will definitely be back.

Incredible New Orleans styled Cajun restaurant in the West Island. No shortage of flavour here. It is a bit pricey for what it is. But it is delicious.

We went to Bistro Nola last night and had an excellent experience from start to finish. We shared a few appetizers including the mac and cheese, fried chicken, and gumbo sausage, all were absolutely delicious and full of flavor. Perfect for sharing and a great way to start the meal. For mains, we had the smoked brisket, braised short ribs, and blackened catfish. Every dish was cooked perfectly and packed with rich, authentic flavors. Dessert was on another level. We tried the Mississippi mud pie, pain perdu, and beignets. Everything was amazing, but the Oreo mud pie really stood out. Service was fast, friendly, and very smooth all evening. The restaurant was packed, so we were really glad we made a reservation. Overall, great value, amazing food, and a fantastic atmosphere. We’ll definitely be back.

This was my 2nd time ar Nolah after a 10 year hiatus. I found it was very dark, tables were small and chairs too flimsy. Waiter was very enthusiastic and attentive, however, he kept addressing only a couple of people at the table, rather than letting us all know about the specials. Food-wise: the scallops were good, but are they worth $50? No, not in my opinion. The ceviche was overly citrusy and very small portion. The bread was delicious, as were the Hush Puppies. The chocolate torte and beignets were divine. Fried chicken was tasty and Ceasars salad delicious as well. Overall, it was a good experience, but I find the prices were a but much.

I went with my family for mother's day brunch. I can't wait to go back for dinner. If you go with kids, order the fruits, chicken and French toast. Update. I finally went for dinner and my experience was so different. It felt like they needed to get rid of us since we went in but I had a reservation. They gave us an awful table for 2, the one just in front of the bar where all waiter and the owner stand to talk...so we requested another one and they gave us a deadline. I heard a waiter harassing a lady next us, where was her party since he had a 4 seat table and she was alone. Food was great but small and high prices. I am changing my 5 star review to meh.

Went to Bistro Nola for Breakfast on Sunday. I didnt have reservations. I sat at the bar. The food was very very good. I was surprised they didnt have fresh squeezed orange juice, and charged $7 for Tropicana OJ, but everything else was stellar. I had the Le Richard. 2 pieces of Fried chicken on French toast...a poached egg on a corn bread muffin, and some ham underneath the muffin, with home fries. Very good. Cooked perfectly. They have a very well stocked bar too, good scotches and rums. I'm surprised Kalhua for their coffee liqueur, vs Barista from Montreal, very coffee forward coffee liqueur, vs Kalhua. But just offering suggestions.

The brunch was absolutely delicious, n flavourful even my kids loved the pancakes n fried chicken. A sweet charm of a place. Only small issue was that because the place is small i felt a bit rushed towards the end for other reservations. I will definately be going back for dinner and brunches.

Amazing New Orleans, style restaurant! The food is always delicious, full of flavor, and perfectly cooked. The place has such a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel comfortable right away. Richard, the owner, is always super welcoming and friendly, which makes the experience even better. You can really tell he cares about his customers. Definitely a spot worth visiting if you love tasty food and a warm vibe! One of my favorite restaurant in the West Island.

Cleanliness was a serious concern. The table was sticky, the floor was dirty, and the washroom was not maintained properly. It’s hard to enjoy a meal when basic hygiene standards don’t seem to be respected.

I absolutely enjoyed every single meal at Bistro Nolah! First of all, I had no reservations and was assuming I could just show up and be seated as it might not be too busy on a Sunday night but to my surprise it was full! Regardless and irrespective of the fact that I was not expecting them to accommodate us, they were able to make it work! The service was great and the food was even better. Everything was so hot and fresh when it came out. We started with the Mac and cheese, fried chicken, jambalaya and gumbo. Everything was delicious, I found the gumbo a little strong on flavour for my preference but the fried chicken was decadent. Perfect amount of chicken to batter ratio, very fresh and delicious honey glaze to top it off. For mains, we went with the jerk shrimp grits and braised short ribs. Both were delicious! Lastly, for dessert we enjoyed the bread pudding which was also delicious! Overall I would go back over and over just for the amazing food and service. It was beautiful to experience a little bit of NOLA here in Montreal!
