Review Summary

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.

Nice place inside & the service was good but the food is so overrated for the price especially the steak !

From tepid food to weird ambiance - this place is mediocre all around. I really wanted to like it, & the whole "Dorsia" premise is awesome - but just like the literary Dorsia in American Psycho, this one is vapid & devoid of value. It's downright weird with waitstaff bringing a plate to the table asking if we wanted to take a photo... No, I won't be taking a photo of a duck breast tonight, thanks. At this price point, lukewarm food won't do. On the positive side, the bathrooms are great, & so is the location.

Impressive. Very nice. Great sea urchin ceviche. Went with my buddy Paul Allen before he left for London. Hasta la vista, baby.

Le Dorsia à Montréal est une véritable révélation gastronomique! Dès que vous entrez, vous êtes enveloppé par une ambiance sophistiquée & moderne qui allie luxe & confort de manière exquise. Le design intérieur est un chef-d'oeuvre en soi, créant un cadre parfait pour une soirée inoubliable. La cuisine est simplement sublime. Le chef & son équipe offrent une expérience culinaire innovante, mettant en avant des ingrédients de saison avec une créativité remarquable. Chaque plat est une oeuvre d'art, non seulement pour les yeux mais aussi pour les papilles. Les combinaisons de saveurs sont audacieuses & parfaitement équilibrées, faisant de chaque bouchée une expérience délicieuse. Le service est exceptionnel, & je tiens à souligner le travail remarquable du directeur Amine. Son attention aux détails, son accueil chaleureux, & son engagement envers un service impeccable élèvent l'expérience à un niveau supérieur. Il assure une atmosphère accueillante & raffinée, ce qui fait toute la différence. De plus, les tenues de service des équipes-serveurs, runners & barmen-sont absolument incroyables. Elles reflètent parfaitement le style élégant du restaurant & ajoutent une touche de sophistication à l'ensemble de l'expérience. Que vous soyez en quête d'une soirée romantique, d'une célébration spéciale ou simplement d'un repas exceptionnel, le Dorsia est le choix idéal. C'est plus qu'un restaurant; c'est une destination culinaire incontournable à Montréal. Je recommande vivement cette adresse & j'ai hâte de revenir pour découvrir de nouvelles créations!

Absolutely the best restaurant in Montreal. The service was flawless starting at the door when you enter to when you leave. The food was top notch in its taste & nutrition, & I felt extremely satiated when done. Also, the mocktails were delicious & unique. It cannot get better than this, pull through.

Beautiful restaurant. Food was great. The lamb tagliatelle, the duck, the salmon crudo & tartare appetizers & the Cesar salad all really great. Amine is always a great host, alongside his team, including Reynald & Katie.
