Bar Dominion ressort comme une adresse prisée pour les cocktails, les huîtres et les plats à partager, avec une ambiance à la fois chic et detendue qui convient aussi bien à une soirée entre amis qu'une sortie romantique. Les avis soulignent un cadre élégant, une décoration soignée et une atmosphère vivante, des serveurs et barmen attentifs et professionnels, et des boissons équilibrées allant du martini classique aux cocktails plus créatifs. Les huîtres et les fruits de mer reviennent fréquemment en tête, tout comme les frites et certains plats signatures; les cocktails sont souvent cités comme des points forts et les tapas ou plats à partager complètent l'expérience. Le niveau de bruit peut varier: certaines soirées sont très animées et parfois difficiles à discuter, tandis que d'autres trouvent l'ambiance agréable et propice à la conversation. Des points négatifs apparaissent aussi parfois, comme des plats arrivant froids ou un burger jugé un peu sec, et quelques visites évoquent une constance du service ou des toilettes peu propres, mais les commentaires restent majoritairement enthousiastes avec recommandations de réserver. En résumé, Bar Dominion est décrit comme une destination incontournable pour les cocktails et les fruits de mer, offrant une ambiance cosmopolite et chaleureuse et une expérience culinaire et nocturne qui incite à revenir.
We had a wonderful evening at Bar Dominion this week. The establishment was packed when we came in, the Habs were playing in a few hours & people were coming in to have drinks before.
The staff were very efficient, carefully explained the situation & conveniently updated us every few minutes as to when we would get space. Finally they cleared up some standing tables & we ended up being there for a bit. They then offered us to switch to better places once the crowd cleared up.
The bar was very elegant, as was the rest of the restaurant. A classic British-Canadian pub in the heart of Montreal that I would definitely recommend to people if they are in the area. There was a veey good mix of people inside & the bartenders were friendly & gave us unlimited waters without asking.
We stopped in before a concert & our bartender (Oliver) helped us right away, not only was he so kind & helpful but all the food he recommended was so good. It was so good we had to write a review!
Was told to visit this place by several bartenders in the area. Was not disappointed. We had the oysters & they were great. All the drinks we had were also excellent.
Friday evening mid to late winter. Service was excellent at table & bar. Any bar worth its weight in gold should be able to make classic cocktails. Ordered a couple of Manhattan which were top notch. Later some wine & Cava. Also good choices with the oysters & nibbles. Frequented this place in the 80´s when it was a more traditional tavern, later in the 2000's along with its sister bar the Balsam. Its most recent guise bodes well. I think if they added a better selection of craft beers it would be nice. The crowd was mixed, diverse, cross generational & upbeat. The ladies were looking mighty fine…this spot always seemed to attract a disproportionately cross section of elegant & beautiful Montreal women. This brings forth some class acts from the manly world. All this to say decent evening. The Bartenders are the real deal & so are the servers. Class act all the way. There seemed to not be any women working the joint & the men working were tight & smooth. Final note…it feels like Mtl in there.

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!
Incredible staff. Meeting Raja the bartender was the cherry on top of our trip in Montreal. He is an exceptional person & we had a fantastic conversation with him. Can't wait to come back, such an awesome bar!
Brought some friends to town, to show them a good time. Bar Dominion was one of our highlights! The bartenders & their cocktails were top drawer. Real professionals! & they helped initiate conversations between groups of guests. We actually met up with the same people who were seated next to us, the next night! I used to love the Old Dominion, but I would say Bar Dominion is even better! Great work. Thanks so much.
