Tremendous service, great atmosphere , & some of the best food & drink in Montreal. Their lobster roll holds its own vs. the very best New England has to offer south of the border: perfectly-seasoned, melt-in-your-mouth lobster paired with crisp, house-made fries. Spectacular craft cocktails, too. Don't miss it!

Service was subpar, not overly friendly or personable. Cocktails were… okay. Expected more.

Excellente expérience au Bar Dominion. L'ambiance est chaleureuse & élégante, parfaite pour une soirée entre amis ou un rendez-vous. Les cocktails sont vraiment bien exécutés, avec une belle attention aux détails. Le service est rapide, professionnel & très accueillant. On sent la qualité autant dans les boissons que dans la nourriture. Je recommande fortement - j'y retournerai sans hésiter!

I had dinner at Bar Dominion & it turned out to be a great experience. The highlight of the night was definitely the $1 oysters-we couldn't resist & ordered a couple dozen. Fresh & well worth it.
I also tried the deviled eggs topped with caviar (my first time trying caviar). They were good, though a bit on the salty side. I actually preferred the other fish roe on top-the larger orange ones-which added a really nice texture & flavor. The caviar itself was subtle since there wasn't much of it.
The standout dish for me was the tuna tataki. It was absolutely amazing-lightly seared raw tuna over a miso vinaigrette, topped with greens (likely seaweed) & cucumber. I would go back just for that dish alone.
We sat at the bar & got to watch the mixologists in action, which was a great experience. The staff were a 10/10-friendly, warm, professional, & very attentive without being overbearing.
Overall, a fantastic spot. I'd definitely come back.
