   We were there for a friend’s 65th birthday and the evening was most disappointing! To begin with, a credit card was required just to secure a reservation, but we complied. Food wasn’t great. Portions were small & prices high! Waiter’s description of menu items & portions was inaccurate based on what we got. He was forgetful & needed to be reminded repeatedly for items asked for. Long wait for meal & dessert. At the end of the meal we questioned why the payment machines had NOT been adjusted as per the May 7th government rule regarding tipping percentage being calculated before taxes & the waiter acted like he didn’t know, so left to “check”. He returned to say it was “the government that had not updated the machines & it is their fault”. One of our group told the waiter that she works at The Gazette and knows that it is the restaurant’s responsibility (not the government’s) to do whatever is necessary to adhere to the rule. His demeanour changed after this and he then rudely and abruptly told us that the next reservation for our table had arrived, so we had 2 minutes to leave - quite unacceptable to speak to patrons that way! We were all shocked but promptly got up to leave. Another staff member from the restaurant ran after us saying that the manager wanted to speak to the person who complained. She went back in and the manager told her that his waiters have been instructed to inform all patrons (at payment time) that the machines have not yet been adjusted so we need to take note of this when tipping (she told him that our waiter never did). His explanation was completely different from the waiter’s, saying that the machine company is the issue as they have not reprogrammed the machines yet. We left the restaurant not really knowing who was telling the truth. It was a subpar experience from beginning to end and we will not be returning to Bistro Nolah again.

   One of our favourite places to eat. The service is always impeccable, the food delicious, and we feel transported back to New Orleans.

   I had been waiting for brunch service to start again for years and was excited to go last week. Food was amazing as always. I got the Nolah Benedict - delicious cornbread and smoked ham. Partner got the Creole breakfast with grits and chorizo. Both were great. Definitely want to come back and try the other brunch items

   You can’t go wrong. We had five or so different meals at our table and they were all hits.

   From top to bottom, everything was very good. The food was top-notch and our plates were left empty. The service was on point. It’s absolutely what you expect when you go out to dine. Will definitely be going back.

    Toujours délicieux ! Rien de négatif si ce n'est que le bruit; c'est pour ça que je privilégié la terrasse l'été
