It seems that with its increasing popularity, Nola is suffering from the inability to cope with more patrons. There is enough seating--I've never had to wait for a table, but it seems that of late I have been served smaller portions of food than before and even denied beignets because they ran out! Isn't that one of their signature menu items?! Today (Saturday noon) was a perfect example. The chicken and waffles, I could have sworn, used to include at least a couple pieces of chicken. Today, there was just one scrawny chicken leg on the plate with a few waffles. And the "large" jambalaya, while served on their larger plate, seemed like it was the same amount as the small portion! The jambalaya was literally spread out flat on the plate to take up the entire plate space. There were two orders of it at my table and they were both that way. About an hour later, I saw someone else at a table nearby order a small jambalaya and it was piled high. Then, when we tried to order beignets, we were told they didn't have any. We brought a friend there just to try it so it was really disappointing. Anyway, the food is delicious still...but I am worried that it won't stay that way if the kitchen can't manage and keeps running low on ingredients! If I were to rate this a couple months ago, I would say 4 stars. Today, 2 stars.
