Nola Eatery & Social House | A lively social spot

Went to Nola Eatery and Social House for lunch.nnThe restaurant looked amazing.nnThe food was delicious and all the staff and service was great.nnThe food was quite pricey compared to a lot of other places in JLT. For a drink a small main it was about AED 100 - Regardless, I will return because of the great overall quality of the restaurant.

I had a bit of spare time and decided that dining here looked like a good idea. It seemed though that all the tables were already booked but the hostess seated me with a bit of a time limit for my tables reservation.nnI ordered from there seasonal menu, the festive turkey and the santa’s surprise for desert, both of which was really good.nnThe service was good and all the staff were really friendly.

If you're looking for good food, tasty cocktails, and a jazzy southern atmosphere, Nola is the place! The restaurant is furnished like an old-school American diner, centerpiece cocktail bar included. The funky, soulful music, combined with the interior and the friendly staff immediately immerse you in the Cajun setting. We dined during the Halloween period, and all the staff were dressed up, with a free face paint corner available for patrons. It's clear that Nola goes the extra mile for their guests.nnLooking at the menu, there's a nice selection of deliciously braised, roasted, smoked, and barbecued meats, along with some tasty fish platters and some vegetarian options as well. These are paired with a nice selection of beers of various strengths, wines, and, of course, classy cocktails. I highly recommend the Corpse reviver 2 and the Bourbon Street! Desserts are taken seriously here, with the usual calorie bomb suspects: moelleuxs, brownies, caramelized bananas, and beignets. To our surprise, the beignets were light, fluffy, and not even slightly too greasy (hats off to the cook!).nnThe real difference is made by the staff. They are so, so kind and always ready to help. Service was fast and smooth, and always with a smile.nnMy only remark would be that the music was a bit too loud, certainly when seated below the speakers as we were. However, as a party of nine, I don't think there was another spot in the venue where we could have been seated.

Great food and excellent service. The team is amazing and the order came quickly. The drinks are delicious and refreshing. The atmosphere is great and we had the best table. It was full. Chill place for a drink and dinner.

Dubai is known for having many great restaurants and bars that rival some of the best in the world on all levels...nHowever very few bars/restaurants have the legendary, mythical and magical touch that makes them unique and epic in ways that the experience lives on in your mind to the degree it makes you want to go back the next day.nNola is one of those rare places.nThe food menu is fantastic. The drinks menu is everything you need. But the magic here...is the vibe..the atmosphere... What they managed to do here is take you back to the fantasy of what New Orleans is... was... always will be in the dreams of those of who know the stories..heard the music and dreamed the dream but didn't live in the right era to experience.nNola is a must for anyone looking for an unforgettable night in Dubai that guarantees the urge to return again and again

Truly a hidden Gem!nI'v been going to this beautiful location for the last four months and every time I go to this place I enjoyed it more.nFrom the front desk to your table and beyond the whole experience is great with delicious food, fantastic cocktails, and professional services all around.nMy hats off to the great Manger Peter for running such crowed and big place so smoothly and professionally and especial thank to Ashley whom make your experience wonderful and fun.nI will go back time after time for sure.nThank you all.

Ladies night has great offer of 3 rounds of delicious simple cocktails and 50% on food. Venue is very authentic with nice music. Their Camembert cheese is must try for sure. Live bar is a great addition to any restaurant and Nola has a really good one.

Nola Eatery & Social House is a New Orleans inspired eatery and bar in JLT, Dubai. We recently had lunch there and the venue is cool, chic and charming with an Al fresco dining area. We enjoyed the cocktails, food, vibe and the service.

We had an amazing experience given the fact that tonight was our anniversary night. The staff are super friendly, the food so tantalizing and exceeded our expectations and the ambience breath taking. Definitely will be coming back and will recommend friends and family too.

It is a cosy place and ambiance is good too. I like the service, They weu2019re kind and fast. I had hamburger, steak, mushroom bread and finally a cheesecake. they were all nice but not superb. They have very reasonable pricing for happy hour so I would suggest you to be there during that time

Nola Eatery & Social HousennA consistently good food place; they’ve been around for quite a few years now and have been consistently serving southern American good food.nLove the vibe of this place ….nThey’ve a cute outdoor terrace perfect for the present weather.nI recommend trying the grill, the sliders are decent too. If you’re looking for a steak the selection is decent. Appetisers are good for sharing.nFeatured we had cobbs salad, steak and seafood jumbalaya.nnPerfect date night/ hangout with the gang place !nnRéservations are highly advised.nWalk-ins not advised.

I visited this place only once but I likes it. Awesome design and environment especially for people who like forest like and places full of plants. Big choice of beverages of any type and good food. Might be quite expensive for some but I'd definitely recommend it to everyone who wants to have a proper lunch or dinner out!

Good ambiance and vibe. Great place to go out for an evening with friends. Though there is not a great variety of food in their menu. Overall, it was a very pleasant evening at Nola. Also, I advise you to book a table over the phone first beforehand.

This place is amazing!nWe had the pleasure to be served by Jyoti at the restaurant. She was extremely friendly, polite and knowledgeable about the place.nThe food was superb especially the spinach cheese dip and the sliders.nHighly recommended!

My favourite place in Dubai! Everything in there is right: the atmosphere is superb, the food is great. Great ladies night offer and amazing staff

Great restaurant with a nice atmosphere and tasty menu.nFor those who donu2019t know, NOLA stands for New Orleans, Louisiana and their menu brings a nice variety of Cajun food.nPerfect for lunch or dinner, but if you plan on going for dinner they have a dress code so donu2019t wear sandals!

Itu2019s one of the most frequented places in Dubai, on weekdays and weekends. And I get why: you probably feel like sitting in a cool place in Miami, with jazzy vibes. Youu2019re most likely to find any drink youu2019d like on their beverage menu and the food is good! Who wouldnu2019t enjoy an evening at Nola! Now hereu2019s the thing: good luck finding a table. Itu2019s usually fully booked any time of the week, especially for indoor seating.nI tried to book a table indoors a week ahead, and it was already fully booked.

This place has such a delightful welcoming feeling. Fantastic atmosphere, great food. Excellent service! My fav! Iu2019ve been coming regularly since the month it opened in 2015.nnA Note to the owners of NOLA:nplease bring back your fabulous funk/ jazz band, it was the best live music in the city!
