Dorsia is widely regarded as a premier dining destination in Old Montreal, celebrated for its elegant atmosphere, refined decor, and exceptional service. Many patrons praise the creative, high-quality menu, particularly highlighting the steak, seafood dishes like the octopus and oysters, and the impressive cocktail program. While the restaurant is frequently lauded for its professionalism and attention to detail, which often makes it a top choice for special occasions, some diners have noted inconsistencies regarding pacing and occasional service delays. Despite a few mixed reviews concerning value or wait times, the majority of visitors describe their time at the restaurant as a memorable, top-tier experience that justifies its inclusion in the Michelin Guide.
Un restaurant d'exception ! What a fabulous restaurant. The attention to details is remarkable. From the design which has a very Contemporary European feel to it, with high quality fabrics, material & design, to the Art Collection which has been curated as for an elegant home or an Art Gallery, to the choice of cutlery, china & glassware. All with a common trait of elegance, high quality & great design. Everything has been well thought out, including the music selection which was broadcasted throughout a great sound system. The food is creative, tasty & elegant without being fussy, is served with a team of professionals. I left the restaurant thinking, what a great time we had... a real treat & for those who appreciate high quality & attention to details, a feast for the soul.
Je suis venu en midi, menu table d'hôte abordable. Beau restaurant, personnelles gentilles & serviable. Présentation des assiettes sont jolies & la nourriture sont très bon aussi. C'était agréable.

The manager & his staff (receptionist, maitre d'hotel, waiters & chef) thanks to their warm welcome, professionalism & passion offered us a top-notch experience. The staff was always smiling & attentive to details. The chef & his brigade master their techniques & seasonings. The interior is elegant, sober & efficient where several tables are available with diffrent capacities (2,4,6... pax) spaced out reasonably. I recommend the Lamb Duo!
I recently had the pleasure of dining at Dorsia, & it was an unforgettable experience. We initially had a reservation at a table, but after meeting Lucas at the bar, we enjoyed ourselves so much that we decided to stay there instead. The black bass & filet mignon were exceptional, & the drinks were crafted to perfection, making our conversation even better. A special thank you to Lucas for making the evening truly memorable. I'm already looking forward to returning the next time I'm in town.
This isn't my first time here, & it certainly won't be my last. The service is great, & each dish is beautifully presented, made with exquisite ingredients, & explained in detail by our waiter. The tables are spacious, allowing us to share meals & creating an intimate atmosphere at our table, which adds an extra touch of luxury to the place. You can feel the chemistry among the team, which makes the ambiance even more enjoyable. General Manager Amine welcomed us warmly, as always. I can't wait to go back!
Superbe nouveau restaurant!! Très délicieux, le décor est superbe & nous avons eu un très bon service! Ne manquez pas la table d'hôte jusqu'à 1er novembre le midi pour 25$ 😉
