Dorsia offers a warm and welcoming atmosphere, with attentive service and consistently high quality food. Across many visits the vibe ranges from elegant and refined to lively and modern, with a focus on presentation, inventive courses, and a strong wine program. Diners praise precise cooking, thoughtful pairings, and a menu that balances French and Italian influences with local ingredients. While most experiences are top tier, a few mentions of long waits, busy crowds, or mixed pacing during peak periods remind that the kitchen and floor can be stretched on busy nights. Overall the dining experience is described as special and memorable, making it a standout choice in Montreal and a likely destination for celebrations.
Je suis venue manger au Dorsia pour la fête à mon chum & nous avons adoré! Je recommande la pieuvre grillée & pour les fans de matcha, le Matchatini :)) Mon chum, lui, a beaucoup aimé le wagyu! J'ai beaucoup aimé l'ambiance dans le restaurant & la playlist de samedi dernier (s'il y a un lien spotify est-ce qu'on peut me le partager? 🤭👀). Notre serveur Guillaume était attentif & il connaissait très bien le menu: il a su nous guider dans nos choix pour une super belle expérience!
Disappointing experience overall. There was more stuff than customers yet they were busy walking around for nothing.
Upon arrival we weren't given menu right away. & when we can't wait any longer for our drink order we had to flash the busboy for wine. Afterwards we were served WARM white wine by the so called sommelier. What kind of Michelin restaurant serve unrefrigerated hot storage room temperature white wine?
The oyster was not fresh. & when we jokingly commented on that they did nothing. The blue fin tuna was saggy. What kind of food standards is that? The fact that the chef would serve that at this calliper is amazing.
When the truffle dish came to the table, the waiter asked have we seen black truffle before. I mean even if you came from small poor town & have never seen it before, you should not assume your customers whom were all dressed full in Hermès & Chanel the same assumption. I'm sorry but that sounded like an insult.
& please, your canned almost melted white asparagus was not worth bragging about. Yes we've seen it.
The steak was lukewarm the most. Not from a good cut yet bland.
I have to say you're very brave to charge people that much for your subpar, unprofessional operation. & the empty dining room says it all.
Beaucoup de gens de Sorel-Tracy & des alentours vont réserver chez vous prochainement. La radio fait son oeuvre on dirait bien. Longue vie au Dorsia! Guillaume saura s'occuper de vous :)
C'était la première fois que j'allais dans un resto gastronomique. Ce fut pour moi une expérience unique. D'abord, le décor est magnifique. Tout est impeccable. On nous accueille comme des dignitaires. Le niveau d'éclairage & celui de la musique sont parfaits. En apéro, les cocktails valent déjà à eux seuls la visite. Ensuite, on nous fait passer de la section lounge à notre table.
Nous faisons la rencontre du sommelier qui nous fait ses recommandations parmi un choix de 700 bouteilles. Le relais est pris par un de nos serveurs. Chacun des huit services est présenté bien évidemment avec une description des ingrédients & leur préparation. On approfondie avec la raison de leur choix & leur provenance. S'ils ne peuvent être trouvés localement afin de satisfaire les exigences du chef, on nous explique d'où ils sont importés & pourquoi. Les plats qu'on nous apporte & qui se succèdent sont les mouvements d'une véritable symphonie pour les sens. Ils nous invitent à une première bouchée presque solennelle.
Finalement, ce qui rend l'expérience si exceptionnelle, c'est la qualité du service. Un personnel rigoureux, sympathique & passionné se souciant du moindre détail, même sans le demander. De petites choses qui, au bout du compte, font toute la différence.
Guillaume , Laurent, Léo, Lucas & tous les autres: vous avez été tout simplement parfaits.
I recently celebrated a birthday at Dorsia in Old Port, & the entire experience truly exceeded all of our expectations.
From the moment we walked in, it felt like we had stepped into a Michelin-star restaurant in the heart of Paris. The atmosphere is elegant & refined, creating the perfect setting for a special occasion.
As for the food, it was absolutely unbelievable. Every dish was beautifully presented & packed with flavor, clearly crafted with care & precision.
I would highly recommend Dorsia to anyone looking for a top-tier dining experience in Old Montreal. It's the perfect spot for celebrating something special or simply enjoying an exceptional night out.
Dorsia absolutely exceeded expectations. We originally stopped in just for drinks, no plans for a full dinner but despite being a group of six, they were incredibly accommodating & welcomed us without hesitation. What started as a casual stop turned into the best experience of the night.
We began with drinks, & every single one was exceptional beautifully crafted, balanced, & memorable. After taking a look at the menu, most of us couldn't resist & ended up ordering food as well & I'm so glad we did. The dishes were truly outstanding, easily matching the quality of the cocktails.
One standout for me personally was the pickled stuffed olives completely mind-blowing & unexpectedly one of the highlights of the night.
The service elevated everything even further. Our server was kind, attentive, & gave excellent recommendations throughout the evening. But what really made the experience unforgettable was Lucas. He handled our lively, chatty group with ease even as the restaurant quieted down & still managed to provide a personalized & thoughtful experience. He went out of his way to walk my friend through the variety of martinis they offer, which was a really nice touch.
Dorsia delivers on every level drinks, food, & service. What started as a spontaneous visit turned into a night we'll all remember. Definitely a top-tier spot & one I'd highly recommend.

De loin la meilleure expérience que j'ai eu!
Je suis aller pour la st-valentin & je n'aurais pas pu espérer mieux. Le service était impeccable. Même qu'ils avaient volontier accepté de déposer sur la table des fleurs & une carte que j'avais acheté.
Nous somme arrivé là-bas & la table était magnifique. Le serveur était super poli & nous complimentait. Les boissons était exquise également.
J'ai vraiment jamais été dans un restaurant aussi serviable & bon (& j'ai vu bcp de restaurants)
Tout simplement sublime autant pour l'ambiance que culinaire. Une expérience à vivre minimum une fois dans sa vie. Merci a notre serveur Guillaume qui a comp?émenté avec classe cette expérience.
P.s. Aviser avec un panneau l'interruption de votre service de valets serais un gros plus.

Très belle soirée passée au Dorsia avec des très belles saveurs créatives & un service très rapide. Mention spéciale à Ryannah qui a fait notre soirée avec son énergie, charisme & attention.
I had a really good experience at Dorsia tonight & had the nicest & sweetest service by Ryannah. She's so good & honestly made my experience tonight incredible. The food was also amazing
My experience at Dorsia was fantastic. The service was excellent from start to finish, the team really made the whole evening feel special. The sommelier was spot on with the wine pairing & the food was delicious. But I have to say, Rihanna at the entrance completely shifted my mood the moment I walked in. She's amazing & sets the tone right away
Il était intéressant aller à la restaurant de'Américain psycho' en réalité, mais actuellement c'est un de les mieux.
La steak tartare était délicieuse, la poisson avec risotto mmm, la pomme caramel beau. Cette endroit est sur la guide Michelin, & je pense Il pourrait gagner un étoile.
That was a 5 stars experience to me & my friend. We had two drinks, both very good.
We both had steak tartare for starter (hands down the best tartare I've ever had) which was a pretty decent portion. Then we had two plates of pasta: I purposely picked the simplest one: paccheri with tomato sauce, parmesan cheese, pepper & basil, so you can really tell the quality of the ingredients. It was heavenly, the paccheri were cooked to perfection. My friend had a more elaborate pasta (can't remember now) & it was ridiculously good. We had dessert & the bill was 230$, plus I left 22% tip because the staff was amazing: very attentive & professional without being too stiff as you see in some places that confuse'high-end experience' with bloated stiffness & too much form. We felt pampered & looked after, just great. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is also beautifully balanced: we got greeted by a really lovely girl who made us feel immediately at home, & took our coats. The interior design is classy & elegant (& I mean elegant, not douchy-bro-gold-chain'elegant'), soft lights & a pleasant crowd on the younger side. I'm taking my girlfriend next week, absolutely loved it. Definitely came for the name (I love the movie) but stayed for the quality of the food & staff. Thank you guys!
