Bar Dominion comes across as a stylish, welcoming spot where cocktails and seafood are repeatedly praised. Oysters are a frequent highlight, and the drinks menu is described as well crafted, with many noting the cocktails as a standout and the fries or chips as addictive. The ambiance is often described as elegant and cozy, sometimes buzzing or lively, with a late night vibe and a terrace option that adds to the appeal. Service is usually friendly and attentive, though a few experiences mention slower or less attentive moments, especially during peak crowds. Food receives mixed notes: some dishes like seafood and lobster roll are superb, while a few burgers or other items are called out as not hitting the mark on some visits. Overall, Bar Dominion is regarded as a top pick for drinks and oysters, offering a memorable, consistently positive experience with strong value and a vibrant atmosphere, albeit with occasional noise and variability in service or kitchen timing.
This is a nicely lit cosy bar in Downtown Montreal. The decor seems to take you back to the early 20th Century. There was a good selection of cocktails but the food menu is restricted. My first main course I had to send back as it came out cold. It is a shame as I thought this was going to be better than it turned out to be.

Merveilleux comme endroit & je recommande surtout pour le 5 à 7. Les cocktails sont divins & la nourriture est excellente. Dès l'arrivée, vous êtes pris en charge par l'équipe avec une attitude & un service hors pair. Le lieu & le décor sont emblématiques & chaleureux. Je recommande sans hésiter 👌🏼
Très belle ambiance avec DJ. L'endroit est chaleureux avec ce mélange d'époque & de modernité avec ses hauts plafonds. Le tartare de saumon était délicieux, doux & bien présenté. Très belle découverte! À retourner sans hésite
Wow! What a find! The vibe is great. The food & drinks were amazing. We ate at the bar. Oliver was our bartender & gastro guide & he excelled on both fronts. The oysters were fresh & tasty, the focaccio app with the Jamon & Manchego app was a perfect combo. The salmon tartare was delicious. We could go on & on about the food but the drinks were amazing. Oliver's attention to each drink was a true master at his craft. We Highly Recommend!

What a hidden gem in plain sight! Was in town for work & happened upon this place on a Monday evening & if it's this good on a Monday, I can only imagine how much more it is at the weekend. Food was fantastic, the vesper was spot on, staff are knowledgeable & attentive. Amazing & eclectic decor. Go, try the burger, you will not be disappointed!
Très bel endroit où prendre un verre & une bouchée avant ou après les matchs des Canadiens.Notre serveur Jules était très sympathique & attentif. Il nous a merveilleusement bien conseillé pour le vin & les plats. Nous y retournerons certainement très bientôt !
Le bar Dominion est un incontournable pour mes amis & moi. Le décor est classe, j'aime beaucoup l'éclairage notamment au niveau des bouteilles derrière le bar (photos Instagramables garanties!) Le service est impeccable en salle avec notamment Jules & Elisa qui sont toujours aux petits soins avec nous. Au bar, Quentin a toujours le mot pour nous faire rire & est de bons conseils pour nous aider à trouver le cocktail idéal à chaque fois! Il y a également un Dj quelques soirs & la musique est juste parfaite pour créer une petite ambiance. Pour finir, le menu nourriture est varié & très appétissant, mention spéciale pour les soirées huîtres à 1$ ! Je recommande fortement cet établissement ✨
