Stumbled across this spot while searching for a fun place to take my son and a few of his friends during parents weekend--he's in college--and it turned out to be a great find. The service was fantastic, the drinks were on point, and the food was incredible. We tried a little bit of everything: alligator, crawfish, pork chop, voodoo chicken, sandwiches, gumbo, and dessert--and every single dish delivered. The cocktails were consistently excellent across the board as well. Overall, we had a really great experience and couldn't have been happier. We'll definitely be back on our next visit--especially to finally try the surf and turf. Thanks, Nola's! read more

My husband and I didn't like the food. We left nearly all of it. I ordered a shrimp po' boy with a side of fried green tomatoes. I love shrimp and fried green tomatoes. The shrimp were tiny and the sandwich was covered with a sauce I didn't like. It should have occurred to me that the fried green tomatoes might also be Cajun. We don't like Cajun but thought the sandwiches might not have all the Cajun seasoning. We should have asked. Another lady at the table got the same thing and she didn't like hers, either. She did ask for ranch dressing for the fried green tomatoes. I followed suite. It did make the tomato's easier to eat but they still were not good. We only got 3 slices each and didn't finish them. I left almost all of my sandwich. I broke off a piece of the bread hoping it might be a good rich bread that I could nibble on. No luck. My husband ordered crawfish étouffée. He said it wasn't warm and tasted like it had been under a heat lamp too long. It was also salty and he has to watch his sodium. He left nearly all of it. One couple ordered voodoo chicken and smashed potatoes. They liked it and ate it all. One person got a chicken sandwich that he said was good. The 2 children got hamburgers and Mac and cheese. They loved the Mac and cheese but barely ate any of the burgers. Their grandmother took a bite of one of the burgers and said it was good. She took the burgers home for the kids. They put the gratuity on the check without telling us. My husband was about to add a gratuity but his sister noticed it was already added and stopped him. They charged us to use a credit card. That alone is enough to keep me from going back. The ambiance was New Orleans decor and pleasant. read more

I met my mother and her friend here for lunch, and really talked the place up because neither of them had ever been here. I spoke of the ambience and the service, both being exceptional. I also raved about the food. Unfortunately, I was terribly disappointed and embarrassed that I recommended. We dying here for lunch because while the ambience is intact, the service was less than expected, and the food fell far short of my experience the last time I was here. If you're going to serve crabcakes, they need to be fresh. Don't ever put prefab, frozen crap on a menu for a restaurant that wants to be taken seriously. Management should be ashamed! The crabcakes you are serving here can be purchased in the freezer section at Walmart, for crying out loud. read more

No experience to rate ...wanted something special for my birthday and selected Nola's. Since they don't do reservations after 5 pm...(whaaat?) Picked another restaurant and had a great time so thank you Nola's. read more

Dinner on a Monday night with an out of town guest who is a Cajun fanatic. He deemed the shrimp and grits just spicy enough. I enjoyed the Voodoo Chicken and would order it again. I loved the green beans and the smashed red potatoes that I ordered as sides. The Po' Boy was gargantuan. The Apricot With Your Pants down was a delicious cocktail. Loved the vibe and decor and our server was outstanding. Will return. read more

A group of us went to brunch at Nola's. We had a reservation and were seated in a quaint private room. Service was amazing. Drinks were delicious and so was breakfast. I got their biscuits and crawfish sausage gravy with eggs and it was delicious. My eggs were cooked perfectly. Voodoo chicken and waffles and crab cake eggs Benedict were favorites too. read more

This was my second visit to Nola's -- I loved it so much the first time that I came back to celebrate my birthday. The food was absolutely delicious! The fried platter was cooked to perfection, with dippers that were both unique and flavorful. I enjoyed my favorite drink, absinthe served à la louche, along with a creole classic: a muffuletta sandwich with a side of maque choux. My partner had the Cajun St. Claude kebab. Everything was so good we had to take the beignets home to savor later! A huge thank you to Lauren for taking such wonderful care of us on my special day -- she was attentive, warm, and made the whole experience memorable. read more

I ended up here by researching the top 10 romantic places to have dinner on Valentine's night in Tulsa. It was a great disappointment. We had another couple literally 4' from us sharing the same bench seat. Across the room was a church ladies group that was causing a lot of commotion with their Valentines version of Dirty Santa. Now as far as the food was concerned, it wasn't the best that I had ever had, but it was definitely good. We had to wait awhile on our entrees , but they were hot and fresh which is definitely a great start. I expected more flavor being a Cajun restaurant, but it was edible for sure. Just bring along your own container of Slap Ya Mama The waitress was very friendly and done a great job. I think her name was Kristiana. So if you're looking for a great place for a casual dinner, this place is great. If you're looking for quiet and romantic, it's not here. read more

Still love this place! Portions are huge so you will probably have leftovers. Their oysters are my favorite in Tulsa. The food is always fresh and great, highly recommend the shrimp poboy. Service is also exceptional, with our server going above and beyond to ensure no ice in my water (I had a sore throat) 10/10 we will always come back when in tulsa. read more

We ended up at Nolas for a birthday brunch. We ordered a bloody Mary and a mambo Mimosa. The bloody Mary (the first I ever tried) was really good. This one was made with dill pickle vodka and it played really well with the tomato and spice. The mambo Mimosa come with your choice of 2 juices so I chose cranberry and orange. It was light and refreshing. For the meal I decided on the crab cake omelette. The crab cakes were crispy and very flavorful, with a good balance of crab and filler. The omelette was well cooked and the beurre blanc sauce was a perfect accompaniment. The potatoes were coated in Cajun seasoning, which I really enjoyed. The meal was delicious. If there was any downside it would be how dark the restaurant is. I get it's part of the New Orleans ambience, but it was a bit hard to see. read more

The voodoo chicken was pretty amazing - perfectly cooked chicken with the sauce that had shrimp and crab? Yes please. The grits were eh, I'm always reminded every time I eat grits that I'm just not a grits person. But the sauce made them edible for me! The lobster Mac was a $5 side up charge and I think just keep to the regular Mac. I understand why there wasn't much lobster but mys well just get the good side still. Service was on time, I placed a to go order on their website. The front lobby looked super cute and romantic so I can just imagine the rest! read more

Went for Mother's Day's evening meal. Alligator Appetizer was delicious with the dipping sauce. My main entree was the Voodoo Chicken. I ate half and had the rest for lunch the next day. It was even better the next day in the air fryer. Yum! Definitely planning to return for gumbo or Jambalaya. Well worth the experience. read more

Holy moly! So glad I got to eat here. Made reservations for 11 on a Sunday and was surprised it wasn't packed yet. My partner had come here once before and was nervous about finding a table. From the moment we entered the space, we were greeted with all lovely employees. The menu is pretty big and made it hard to decide what to get. My partner and I almost ordered three entrees and an appetizer but settled on the crab cakes, Gri gri shrimp with cheese grits and the Satchmo's red beans and ricely. The crab cakes was delicious, you could really taste the crab instead of just filling. I should have asked for a slice of lemon, that would've made it perfect but it was still very good. The Gri Gri shrimp and cheese grits were absolutely incredible. From that first bite of grits, I knew I was going to love this place. It was spicy, cheesy with a bomb of flavor. The juicy large shrimp weren't overcooked and you get a great amount of shrimp for the price. I was lucky enough to also try my partner's Satchmo's red beans and ricely and wow. He substituted it with boudin and I was surprised it was one large link. I believe it came with Nola's potato casserole and the most delicious beans I may have ever had. We also ordered a side of maque choux which also had a bunch of flavor. The service was top notch, from the hostess to our server and food runners. Honestly, I expected the bill to be much larger for the quantity and quality of the food. read more

Nola's is always delicious. It can get pretty packed during the dinner rush but I've found that I have better luck with getting seated quickly if I go around lunch time. It has a speakeasy feel to it and everyone has always been helpful. read more

I've eaten at Nola's a number of times over the years, but this last visit on Sunday, 24 May was very disappointing. I ordered that Red Snapper on a bed of rice, with a side of green beans. The rice was a film rather than a bed, and it was dry to the point of being crunchy. The green beans were dry, leathery, and actually hard to chew. The fish also was very much dried out. That's not the way to cook or serve a good piece of fish, and it is very far below the standard of my previous meals at Nola's. read more

This food was so delicious! We were told it would be a long wait but we barely waited 10 minutes. The restaurant is fairly dark and has several different areas to sit. Although the food aaa delicious, it was quite expensive. read more

I wish Yelp would allow separate ratings for ambiance (great); service (good); food (ok), but that might make it too easy not to expand. Our party of 4 made reservations to dine here prior to a PAC show. We were very early, but they were gracious and sat us right away. We had all been here before, so the pleasant atmosphere was no surprise with all the NOLA charm, jazz playing in the background and familiar Cajun offerings. The look is very reminiscent of restaurants we have eaten at in New Orleans. Our server was good and but came off almost a little too casual for the other more upscale touches in the restaurant. Nothing inappropriate, just more like a (insert any mid-priced bar and grill chain e.g. Chili's) vibe. They did everything a diner would expect and retrieved extra napkins, hot sauce, etc. requested. Wished they had mentioned servers would help pull shrimp off skewers before required fingers were required to remove (thus the request for extra napkins). My Gumbo was good (loved the flavor of the andouille sausage), but like before, it was already pretty spicey. I love spicey but prefer to add my own flavor. They do have an array of Louisiana hot sauces which I added to suit me. My Jambalaya was just ok. It seemed to lack that Cajun magic. The bread pudding had the right flavor rum sauce, but the texture was a little off. Overall, it was good but made me yearn for a NOLA road trip. read more

Whatever you do, DO NOT try the chicken gumbo. It's some sort of gravy sauce and it's not good. The texture isn't right and it's thick. Think of mashed potatoes and gravy. The rice was crunchy and chewy and the green beans were cold and weren't seasoned right. Nice establishment and great service, but the food isn't right. If I come back, I have to try something else. read more

Stopped in on a road trip. So glad we did. We got the Poutine and Voodoo chicken. Both were full of so much flavor. Not too spicy, just enough. We brought our dog and sat on the patio. Our waitress brought him a water bowl and a treat. Quiet comfy seating. Highly recommend. read more

Outstanding lunch options!!! We started out with the Beacoup Platter which consisted of Alligator, butterfly shrimp, crawfish and catfish. Served with cocktail, remoulade, and tartar sauces. Serves 2-4. 2nd appetizer was the Elegua's Black Magic Deviled Eggs - 6 deviled eggs topped three ways: two with blackened shrimp, two with blackened crawfish, and two with blackened blue lump crab knuckles. I chose the Red Allen Croque-Monsieur! It was a lot to eat, great flavors, tasted great!! I was here 2 yrs ago but wanted to try something totally different!! Everything on the lunch menu looked so inviting but I knew I was going to go with a sandwich! It didn't disappoint! We wanted to dine on the patio but it wasn't open today! It would have been a great day for the patio! read more

The location in general is kinda sketchy but the parking area seemed safe. Parking lot was cramped but I was able to find a spot. You're double cab long bed dually might need to be left at home. Patrons dressed from shorts and tshirts to suits. The location appears historic and is really neat. Not very handicap friendly at the entrance if you're by yourself but I believe you could use the entrance to the left of the stairs and request to be seated with any staff. The staff was very friendly and there were other specific servers that brought the food. The servers seemed a bit new and mixed up orders from the table behind us, which if I hadn't spoken up I think our appetizers would have been thrown out and had to be reordered once our waitress found we didn't get it. I ordered the raw oysters, alligator tail and the Oscar Filet. All were fantastic and cooked perfectly. They do have one special beer that's made just for the restaurant (I guess a local brewery) It was a Belgium style beer that was great too. Sit on the patio on a nice day! You can actually sit there on a cold day as they have plastic covering the walls and ample heat going. We will definitely return. read more
