You have to love Nola! Cool staff from their uniforms to the way they treat each other, just makes you feel welcome at all times. Delicious food, New Orleans inspired venue, they make everything possible, they deliver, they organize your events, they have this amazing live jazz bend which will make you sing and dance with them. All in all a must visit place. Plus the prices are decent 😉
Nice hangout place to meet up friends and have drinks or food.
Beer selection was poor, and music was too loud that you have to raise your voice significantly for the other person to hear you.
The highlight of the night was the love band, every musician was professional and talented
Good bar for a few drinks after work or meeting with a few friends.
Happy hours good, food is good, however the reason I have given this place 3 Stars due to the service, the service was slow but at 9pm the staff asked us to move because they book the tables with a minimum spend, but not at any stage they do tell you that
I didn't mind moving but it would have been nice to mention it when we got in at 7pm so we didn't have to rush our drinks.
The place is always jam packed which is a good thing. I loved pretty much everything about this place. The crowd was good, the music was excellent the food was delicious. Recommended
By far, my favourite spot in Dubai Amazing food.. Amazing ambiance and wonderful staff.. Not to forget the out of this world live band Keep up the good work guys😀😀
Lovely place, lovely ambiance and amazing staff. The service at Nola is top-notch; full attention to details, the uniforms for the staff matches the place perfectly. The food is delicious, reasonably sized and at fair prices. The Happy Hour menu is one of the best I have seen in Dubai - at great prices. Special thanks to Kennedy.
Easily one of my favorite bars. Great ambience, good food, friendly staff, and skilled bartenders. Perfect to sit outside while the weather's good!
I was suprised to find this restaurant. Its really cozy, vibrant and the atmosphere is chilled.
Even in peak time the waiters will try to help you as best as they can. The bar in the middle just makes this place alive
Nice lively venue with an upbeat atmosphere and good food. I like the fact that its located in JLT, somewhere you wouldn't expect to find a place like this it's unique and makes it a singular option in the area. Great live Jazz on some days + a nice outdoor seating area for the good weather months. Had the tuna tartar and the goat cheese salad and loved them both.
Lively and vibrant restaurant/bar, very close to where I was staying so was a surprise to find such a nice spot for some dinner & drinks. Managed to find us a table with no hassle even though we just dropped in on what looked like a busy night. Very professional staff, one waiter even noticed my girlfriend looking for something to stir her cocktail and he immediately came over with a straw before we even asked, that’s the mark of a true professional.
Food was wonderful, a perfect sized portion not leaving you too full to enjoy a desert. Prices were as expected for this style of establishment in Dubai. Thank you Nola for you’re attentive service and tasty dishes.
Lovely ambience but too smokey. I booked a table but arrived 3 minutes late and my table was gone. Was received very rudely by the manager who gave a big table to a party of 2 and gave me a table of 4 for a party of 8. Also, is it wrong to expect them to call to ask if I'm nearly there before giving away a reserved table to walk in guests?
Very nice concept however finding the place was a nightmare. Its located at some basement in a cark park. Not very obvious, though its funky & upbeat with great band on their ladies night. Ladies receive 50% off the food menu as well.
Nice band. Good price for the food. Can rack up the bill if you go all out. But fun!
Good vibe with a good selection of jazz and lounge music playlist and very attentive personnel. They also have a good menu and quite skillfully cooked dishes! The brownie with ice cream is very yum. A little too smokey in the evening but overall, it's one of my favorite places.
Good place to hang out with friends. Prices are in middle range and being in JLT is a plus. It is a bit crowded on weekends and sometimes it takes time to get main lounge entry. Better to reserve a table before you come.
Solid spot, good drinks and entertainment. Service suffered a bit when there was a large crowd present, but the staff are really good when handling small events like birthdays and going away parties.
Love the food and music. Great Southern menu with very affordable prices. A must visit in Dubai
Nice place, good food . Terrible Terrible management !!!! One of the worst experiences of bar or restaurant management I have ever seen. In fact 24 hours later I'm still in shock at how I was treated. Kicked off stable that wasn't reserved, after spending 1500 AED being told they have Arab clients who will spend more and super aggressive behaviour towards me and my clients who I were entertaining. By the time we had paid the bill there were actually 4 empty tables around us and more around the bar itself. Total shock. Never return !!!
Very nice and cozy venue with plenty of space and great music but food is not good and EXTREMELY overpriced.
Otherwise, great place with nice atmosphere.
Cool place to chill with friends and have a drink. The staff are very good generally but please be clearer about smoking areas. The first waiter said it's okay to smoke where we were sitting a minute later another waiter comes and politely asks us not to smoke in the same spot. Then the third guy came ans told us its okay to smoke here..They seem to be a bit confused. Had a blast with a big group of friends though
