Nous avons appréciés nos plats, mais surtout l'excellent service ! Petit clin d'oeil à Rihanna & Ayoub, qui nous ont offert un service impeccable.

I recently dined at this restaurant & left feeling underwhelmed, especially considering the price point.

We started with the steak tartare & grilled octopus. Both were decent but nothing memorable-overall pretty mediocre for what you're paying.
For mains, we tried the agnolotti & cavatelli. The agnolotti was the biggest disappointment of the night, lacking flavor & depth, making it feel quite flat. The cavatelli was noticeably better, with a more satisfying taste & texture, but still not enough to make the experience stand out.

Overall, the meal didn't quite justify the cost, & I was expecting more in terms of flavor & creativity.

I can't say enough good things about our recent visit for my wife's birthday. We had a custom 5-course menu that highlighted the best of what Dorsia has to offer, & every single course was amazing. The food was stunningly beautiful & absolutely delicious-it lived up to every expectation.
The service was impeccable & so attentive. They even went the extra mile by preparing a special birthday cake for us since we planned ahead.
A special shout-out to Maude for being so great! She was instrumental in organizing everything & making sure the night was perfect. Thank you for such an awesome experience-we will definitely be back!

J'ai adoré cette endroit :)

Notre soirée entre amis a commencé avec un martinis qui goûte le paradis à la saveur d'hibiscus & fruit de la passion.

Le menu découverte est rempli de texture & saveur qui sont une réelle découverte ;)

Un gros merci à Guillaume & Léo pour le service irréprochable 👌

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!
