Located in a scummy basement off of Cure Labelle, one can EASILY overlook Casa Creole... unless you…read moreknow about its existence by a friend... who obviously... happens to be Creole as well. I went with a take-out "griot" (pork shoulder) that came with fried rice and pasta. It was quite delicious and I enjoyed it... though I wouldn't necessarily eat it every day. I had a slice of fried plantain banana and it was very yummy as well. This plate was under $10, which is a bargain to say the least. In the future they plan to move nearby and will provide more seating, which can only help their business some. All in all, worthy of a try. Woman was very nice.

I might go back there just for the steak but not for the service of the ambiance.

Thus this brought passion me to Tropic Plus with my coworker. I went with their "fritaille" that held a variety of meats such as beef, griot (deep fried porc) and turkey with fried plantains, salad and side riz colle (deep fried rice). The meal was quite fantastic and the serving was overwhelmingly generous. I simply couldn't finish all this good food that set me back a mere $12. Everything was flavorful and of very high quality. The griot was perfect and was probably the best I have ever had! The resto is well maintained with comfortable fine dining seating which is a welcome change from the smaller places I'm accustomed to elsewhere. The service was friendly and quick. The dining experience was very enjoyable. Will be back.

What is La Lou's secret? We have been dining at La Lou for over 25 years, it is our "Go-To"…read morelocation for all our little special occasions. You are welcomed so warmly by the staff, always helpful but NEVER intrusive. Honestly makes you feel like you are at a Louisiana local neighbourhood Chow-Down, as friend not a patron. Love that about La Lou. Last night's dinner started with a Hurricane, for me and a spicy Caesar for my partner. The Hurricane was delicious, a perfect blend of fruit juices and rum, I could drink these and nothing else, for the rest of my life. My partner reported the Caesar was perfect, from the mix to the spicy bean garnish. Our appetizers were Hush Puppies (of course) and Crab Cakes. The Hush Puppies were little balls of flavour, texture and taste, prepared to perfection. The crab cakes had the crispy exterior and soft, savoury and delicious interior. Love the presentation. I should have taken photos but I was too interested in devouring these little jewels. My partner ordered the Meat Jambalaya, he was blown away by the perfect seasoning, combination of the ingredients, Andouille sausage, smoked ham and chicken. He says he highly recommends this dish. Ordinarily, I go with the blackened fish of the day, but this visit I thought I would try Lou's Famous Fried Chicken. There is a reason it is "Famous". The chicken was juicy and tender, the coating was crisp and delicious. It came with a side of seasoned fries, delicious and tender. We desperately wanted the incredible Bananas Foster dessert but there was no way we could eat another bite, so we finished off with 2 BB King specialty coffees. You have to try one, if you go; delicious! Again, I forgot photos! Coffee, Bailey's and darned if I can remember the other ingredients. They are listed on the menu. All this to say that if you are visiting Montréal - this is a "Must visit" destination. We live 65 kms away and gladly brave the traffic to avail ourselves of this little treasure chest of Louisiana flavours.

Apparently this place has been around for about 35 years along with other spots in this neighborhood. I was starving so we ordered right away and asked for sweet potato fries. They came out super hot since the kitchen was just a few steps away. They had a very flakey flour coating and were delicious with the sauce. The paneed chicken with creamy green peppercorn sauce was good with the garlic mashed potatoes. Not bad but kind of expensive for what it was. As for the meat jambalaya, it seemed a bit skimpy on the meats... Just a few pieces of sausage, ham and chicken. Good tomato based sauce. Overall food to price value is a 4/5.

I was in the area and I decided to check out some of my coveted bookmarks and Delice Antillais…read morepopped up. Let me set the record straight, I love new hardly discovered places. The reason being is you are going into the murky unknown where Yelpers have not treaded before. This place had only one review and it was five stars. Many Haitian/Creole restaurants are simple establishments. Don't come here for the decor. You will be disappointed. It's pretty plain Jane simple with a cooler, order counter and menu on the wall with a TV on. If you are expecting high class decor go to Fourchette Antillaise in St Laurent. Here there are some stools around one small long counter. So it's totally more of a takeout place. When I ordered it was an older woman who didn't look very happy. I politely ordered the Turkey meal and she asked a few questions (en francais) of what I would like added. Her accent was thick and hard to understand so I just went along and said yes to all. Options are a small plate $8 or a large plate $10. I went with the large plate. I was thinking from her experience this was going to be a 3/5 because she didn't seem very happy to serve me. However such is life. Then a nice younger man came in who appeared to be the owner and greeted me and finished off my transaction when paying. I asked how long he had been open and he politely said two years. Here's the skinny on the food. She served me pork instead of turkey but it was so tender and delicious. I'm actually glad I got the pork instead. Served with plantains, macaroni salad, the liquid gravy sauce and red beans and rice. Pickliz was spicy but zesty. Everything was amazing flavour and the serving is huge and great value for the price. It's served in a big styrofoam container. Half was left for a next day snack. I shall be back. It's delish. Simple, no frills but great flavour!

Renovations are not fully done yet inside, but honestly, that's not what we were looking for. We tried 3 kinds of meat: taso (fried goat), fried pork (griot), and fried chicken. My favorite was the taso. It had a nice taste of lamb and was tender and seasoned. I found the griot to be very fried (maybe that's how it's meant to be). The accompanying rice and pasta salad were good. Portion size is not huge on the meat but as a meal it's adequate and very decent for the price. The place looked family run and the staff was very friendly in explaining what was what to us tourists. At $8-10 after tax per Styrofoam meal including a can of pop, I'd come back to try some of their other items if I passed by again.
