    The food was delicious. I can't say that it's NOLA but, The crab cakes paired with mash and string beans were delicious. I can't remember what my date had but he enjoyed it as well. Both of our plates were cleaned with nothing left to take home. If your in Baltimore and want some where tasty to eat. This is a good pick.

    I've been wanting to try this place for a while. I finally got the chance on July 7th. We were able to get a reservation thirty minutes before walking in. The food options are plentiful. It was brunch time but they offered both brunch and the dinner menu. The steal of the day were the mimosas! They offer buy one, get one champagne so we paid $30 for two bottles of champagne. I ordered the red beans & rice with andouille sausage which I thoroughly enjoyed. The beans could've been cooked down a little longer but nothing to complain about. The chargrilled oysters were a treat as well! There's also a second bar upstairs should you want to just watch sports and grab a quick bite.

    Closest comparison to New Orleans oysters in Baltimore! Nola is a go to restaurant for me that I've been to in federal hill that sells New Orleans Cajun cuisine and cocktails hence the name. On Tuesdays they have Fat Tuesday specials where certain drinks are half off and food are discounted. I decided on getting the chargrilled oysters and a brandy crusta. I've had a brandy crusta many times however this one was a bit different. I did let the bartender know and she was friendly and did her best to make sure It was better. I sat by the bar and ate the oysters. It was covered in garlic butter, Parmesan cheese and herbs. The oysters were hot and delicious. The lemon added a good citrus taste to It. It reminded me of the oysters from New Orleans and I enjoyed them a lot. My only caveat I have with Nola is their high 19% gratuity that they add to all checks including tax. I didn't have a bad service. But if I did, I want to choose if I want to tip or not and also that 19% gratuity is very high in this inflation but I digress
