Mes amis & moi sommes venus durant le temps des fêtes. Bien que la salle était remplie, nous n'avons jamais senti que les serveurs n'avaient pas le temps d'être avec nous, de remplir nos verres & de répondre à toutes nos questions. La nourriture est excellente, les desserts sont magnifiques qui plus est & les conseils pour le vin étaient parfaits. Nous avions des palettes de goûts différents & tout le monde à la table à été très satisfaits des recommandations!

Nous y retournerons assurément!

Very elegant vibe. The service was stunning. Atmosphere was very elevated. Appetizers were great. But pasta was not al dente it was just undercooked. Fish was great. Great cocktail menu with fast service. Atmosphere was sexy would totally recommend a first date here ;)

This restaurant is a masterpiece in every sense. The food is nothing short of extraordinary, elegant, refined, & bursting with flavor, showcasing true culinary artistry. But what truly sets it apart is the stunning ambiance. Every detail of the decor is breathtaking, making it undeniably the most beautiful restaurant in the city. Dining here is not just a meal, it's an unforgettable experience Absolutely love the name btw

Wow. Dorsia produced one of the best overall dining experiences I have had in years. A colleague & I were in Montreal for the first time on a work trip & stumbled on visually stunning Dorsia. Despite having no reservations, the host found us two places at the bar, where the bartenders were exceptional. The food was equally as good. We met a couple of regulars at the bar, who invited us downstairs to Dorsia's new speakeasy, Bowie. Like the restaurant Dorsia upstairs, it totally nailed downstairs what a speakeasy should be. Layout. Decor. DJ. Live Music. Drinks. Clientele. Sadly, we had to work the next day & left at 11 pm, but I am sure the party went well into the night. The next evening, my colleague & I briefly discussed our options for dinner that night & agreed we would do no better than simply returning to Dorsia. When we arrived, all the staff remembered us as if we were longtime regulars. Despite it being a fully-booked Saturday night, they immediately tried to accommodate us, even though even the bar was full. Their solution was to open the speak easy early, where they guided us & comp'd us our drinks until two seats at the bar were available. The second night was just as good as the first. Between us, my colleague & I have easily been to over 100 countries, so we have experienced a pretty remarkable range of places, & in that long list, Dorsia stands out. Well done Dorsia. Keep doing what you are doing.

A real hidden gem in Old Montreal! The attention to details is phenomenal. The interior designer & the art is absolutely incredible which sets the tone on a beautiful experience. Service was excellent, from the moment we walked in to leaving they were very attentive & made us feel at home. Food portion was small but the quality was at a high level. Prices are great for the quality. Highly recommend for anyone looking for a great fine dining experience to visit Dorsia! Their music selection is also a nice bonus adding on to the overall dinner.
