Came here with a friend for a little cocktail night out! It was walking distance from our hotel (the Sheraton) so we decided to give it a try! I ordered the Martingale & some fresh oysters. My cocktail was the perfect blend of strong, sweet, & citrusy. The oysters were also very fresh & paired well with the toppings!
We absolutely loved the vibe of this place-buzzing & lively but not too loud so we could hear each other while chatting. Would definitely recommend & I'll be coming back the next time I'm in the city!
We had just finished dinner close by & were looking for a place to have a drink. Looked on google & saw it was dollar oyster night too. We opted to jump in here for drinks & a dozen oyster, cause why not?!
Boy, are we glad we did. Drinks were great & service was even better! Our server was awesome. We started bs-ing with him about where he would suggest us to eat. He had fun with us & even took time to write down a list for us of his favorites, which was awesome. He ended up getting off work & the guy who replaced him was equally as personable.
We almost went back the next night as we enjoyed it there so much.

Did someone say 1$ oyster Sunday & Monday? Bar Dominion did. Fresh Oyster served with lemon & lime edges, two mignonettes & hot sauce. The cheeseburger was absolutely delicious, grilled to perfection. Great crowd & décore. Service was friendly & professional. I highly recommend a reservation.
Summer in Montreal means a terrace table, cold beer, & 24 fresh oysters shared with friends while we solve the world's mysteries one bite at a time. Life is good. 🥰
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.
Sadly i was pretty disappointed with the burger. It felt plain without much sauce & the edges were pretty burnt & that was all i could taste. I would not recommend the burger even though the fries were pretty delicious.
Oysters were good especially on a sunday with the 1$ deal.
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!
We had a great first experience at Bar Dominion. The service was excellent, & the vibe of the bar is very cool. We ordered the Islander & the Pimms - both delicious. For food, we ordered the steak, lobster roll, & six oysters. We loved it all!
It used to be my playground, soooo happy it's back! The English private club style decor is still intact. Absolute must do in Montreal! Perfect place to have a drink with dr ends or a date 🥂 perfect before or after show at the Bell center. Great drinks, food to share or main meals, good selection & prices. Sitting at the bar promises a great night ahead. Still they kept the big banquette at the rear. The music could be less loud. I love it & will come back as I used to for sure! Oysters at 1$ everyday before 6pm!
