Southern dishes like jambalaya & gumbo served in elegant space


























"Southern food is scant in Montreal, but Nolah certainly doesn’t rely on mere novelty factor. Chef Richard Taitt has an adept hand with meat and seafood, serving bourbon mussels, Charleston-style shrimp and grits, and New Orleans specialties like gumbo and jambalaya." - Erinn Blicher

"Located out in Dollard-des-Ormeaux, it may be geographically obscure to those focused on what’s around the center of the island, but this restaurant from chefs Richard Taitt and Chris Eamer and pastry chef Isabelle Plourde is the city’s premier place to get a taste of New Orleans. Classics like shrimp and grits and blackened catfish, gumbo and crab cakes, beignets — they’re all here." - JP Karwacki

"Gumbo in Montreal isn’t easy to come by; in fact, it’s virtually nonexistent. But this West Island Cajun haunt has been serving the stew with sausage and copious amounts of shrimps for almost nine years. The DDO strip mall restaurant is a favourite among locals, and the classic New Orleans comfort food is up for grabs as takeout or delivery." - Holly Tousignant

"Widely considered one of the West Island’s best restaurants, this spot serves gumbo, grits, jambalaya, and plenty of succulent Cajun-spiced seafood dishes, though seafood boil doesn’t currently appear on the menu." - Valerie Silva

"Operating as a ghost kitchen out of Bistro Nolah’s kitchen since January, Charleston Poulet Frit — run by chef Richard Taitt and team — has been serving buttermilk fried chicken, coleslaw, french fries and sandwiches via delivery apps (Uber Eats, DoorDash, Skip The Dishes, Chkplz), offering a lower-price, street-food concept that could expand into its own space if it goes well." - Audrey Carleton
