J'ai jamais rien à dire, on me sert toujours avec un beau sourire, la bouffe est toujours excellente voire mieux qu'ailleurs, gluten free friendly, votre serveuse Éléanore est toujours souriante et même si j'arrive parfois trop près de la fermeture on me sert toujours avec gentillesse. Merci Benny dix30 pour votre bon travail! Je continuerai de me déplacer pour cette surccucale
I went for dinner with my husband last night and wanted to try this restaurant for the first time. We were pleasantly surprised that there actually was a good number of options for gluten-free food as my husband cannot eat gluten. Overall, they do not have a massive menu selection to choose from, but in this case I think it's quality over quantity (a very good thing) - the items they do have on the menu they can really focus on making sure it comes out with great quality: excellent presentation, flavor, etc. The alcoholic beverages (cocktails) are very pricy but do taste great and aren't watered down.
The overall ambiance of the place is cozy and the noise level is acceptable for a bar-restaurant. However, had I known better, I would not sit at the table which is directly under the AC unit again (it drips a lil bit of condensation) - that was the only minor issue I had with the whole experience (and kinda my fault for picking the spot before realizing about the AC dripping). Bistro Nolah - if you guys are reading this, maybe move that particular table a bit further out from the wall so the AC unit cannot drip on the table directly below it.
The staff are friendly, welcoming, helpful in answering any questions we had about the food, attentive (checking if everything is to our liking, asking if we need/want anything else, etc. at reasonable intervals), and also bilingual which I appreciated (I do speak/understand a bit of basic French, but English is still my main language). We were provided with 1 bread roll per person with their special chipotle butter (? I think) and I got to enjoy both 😅 (I did feel a bit bad for my husband missing out). For appetizers, my husband got a creamy corn soup and I got the boneless fried chicken. The corn soup was creamy, savory and refreshing (I took a lil taste test) and the chicken was fried to perfection - tender and crispy with a nice sweet and mildly spicy sauce drizzled on it. For the main entrée, we both went for the Beef Short Ribs with mashed sweet potato and vegetables which we both enjoyed. For dessert, my husband got the gluten-free Chocolate Torte, and I went for another round of the boneless fried chicken as strange as that might be (I'm trying to eat less sweets and the chicken was just too good for me to not to get seconds). I wanted to give my compliments/thanks to the chef(s) at the end because I was very impressed with how delicious everything was. We had an enjoyable evening here and would recommend this cozy lil bar-restaurant.
Had the most delicious shrimp curry at this place. Such a complex blend of flavors with just the right amount of heat. Wait time to order and wait for your food is very reasonable. Also, the staff are so kind and attentive. Would definitely recommend this place as your next casual Indian meal!
Edit: I forgot to mention that everything on their menu is very well labelled for most major food restrictions. I have celiac and it was so clear which items on the menu were gluten free, which is so appreciated!!
I love their chicken poutine. We're not looking for cheese. And the Caesar salad is also delicious with real parmesan shavings. What about the gluten-free sauce?
It was my 2nd visit, for lunch with colleagues. Once again, the menu is interesting, the food is good and the chef can accommodate some meals for my gluten-intolerant colleague. The price is reasonable and the plate is well stocked. Good choice for a business meal or with friends.
Finally tried this somewhat new local spot for a weekend brunch and we loved it. Sat at the bar, great service, cool retro vibes and yummy food. They were easy to adapt to my no- meat and gluten free diet. Will definitely be back.
Honestly this place was incredible, the food was amazing and unique, the service was great and the place was very quaint. We had dinner for a birthday and it was above our expectations. Truly a must for locals and visitors alike. A memorable dinning experience, we will be back! Thank you Lo Cal for an amazing evening
(They also had a lot of gluten free options!! I could eat most things off the menu which was another awesome factor)
Celiac friendly
