Les avis sur Dorsia convergent vers une expérience culinaire raffinée et mémorable, caractérisée par un cadre élégant, une ambiance chic et un service attentif et professionnel, et par une cuisine gastronomique où chaque plat est pensé et joliment présenté. La carte et les vins, souvent salués pour leur qualité et leur originalité, accompagnent des saveurs variées allant du tartare de boeuf au paccheri en passant par des plats de canard, fruits de mer et viandes parfaitement maîtrisés, avec des desserts et des cocktails souvent cités comme des points forts. L impression générale est que l établissement mérite une étoile Michelin et représente une valeur sûre pour les occasions spéciales, avec des portions généreuses et une expérience qui peut friser la perfection lorsque tout s aligne. Cependant, certaines réserves notent des moments de service inégal, des attentes longues lors de périodes d affluence, et des variations d expérience entre visites, notamment lors de soirées chargées ou pour les grands groupes. Malgré cela, ambiance, qualité des plats et professionnalisme du personnel font de Dorsia une destination prisée et recommandée par de nombreux convives.
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
Phenomenal dining experience. Refined yet relaxed atmosphere & decor.
Server Guillaume was the best waiter I have had in a restaurant, very attentive & knowledgeable.
Food was exceptional. Delicious variety of appetizers (I recommend the Mille fueille with chicken liver mousse) & pasta. Both seafood & steaks were cooked & seasoned excellently.
Cocktails were very good as well, with a broad selection of wine, my personal favorite was the Negroni with olives.
Dessert left much to be desired was our only gripe with this other excellent restaurant.
Bathrooms & facilities were also in notably great condition.
This was one of the best dining experiences all around I've ever had. This restaurant alone can make a trip to Montreal worth it.

Yummy yummy food, wine & cocktails, too bad they made us feel rushed during the meal because we had to free the table for the next group. Server tried pulling my plate away before I even finished. Long wait between services.
Great experience from A to Z.
Very good food, warm & professional service, very complete & qualitative wine list. Last but not least, a very good price/quality ratio!
A very credible alternative to Lemeac when in Montreal!
My girlfriend & I just came to Dorsia for her birthday & WOW is all we have to say. It is very rare that we find a restoraunt that is worth the price that you pay. Is it expensive? Yes. Is it worth every penny? ABSOLUTELY!!!! we cannot wait to come back, absolutely amazing food in every course, the wine was phenomenal, the decor of the restoraunt was outstanding & the service was second to none. Coralie was amazing & I praise her service. This place is a must if youre a foodie looking for something new & exciting in the city.
One of the more elegant restaurants in Montreal serving mostly traditional French cuisine with a few delicious twists. The staff was very efficient, attentive, & genuinely warm.
The ambiance is exceptional & the noise level is moderate to subdued which makes for a pleasant dining experience.
They also have an extensive wine list & Laurent, the sommelier, was very helpful in pairing wine to food.
Energetic vibe without being loud. Refined & contemporary design & atmosphere. Food was outstanding. Creative selections that were seasonal & unique. Wine selection top-notch.

Dorsia offers a warm & welcoming atmosphere, with the entire staff contributing to an excellent experience. The host was friendly & pleasant, & our waiter, Guillaume, was attentive & demonstrated impressive knowledge of the menu.
We began with beef tartare & tuna carpaccio as entrées, both fresh, flavorful, & beautifully presented. For mains, we ordered the lobster ravioli & lamb, each cooked to perfection, rich in flavor, & artfully plated. The strawberry tart for dessert was a standout, though the entire meal was consistently excellent.
The wine list is well curated, & while we did not try any cocktails, the options looked appealing.
The décor is elegant, with great attention to detail, & the music selection was spot on, even featuring two of my personal favorites. I look forward to returning annd to explore their basement bar in the future.
An amazing experience, from the hostess to the waiters to the sommelier who was brought over even though we asked for a wine by the glass, we were completely taken care of & blown away by the service, not to mention the food which was spectacular. They even gave us some small cakes (mignardises) to bring back to my wife at home, on the house. Kudos to everyone!
I had an incredible evening at Dorsia, hands down one of the best dining experiences I've had in a long time. From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was warm, elegant, & inviting. But what truly elevated the night was the outstanding service we received from Ben, our waiter.
Even though he was juggling a few large groups, Ben made us feel like we were his top priority. He was attentive without being intrusive, & his energy & kindness truly set the tone for a special evening. From start to finish, he took care of every detail with a genuine smile & made us feel so welcome.
The food? Absolutely amazing. Every dish was thoughtfully prepared & bursting with flavor. You can tell the kitchen team takes real pride in what they do. What also stood out was how knowledgeable the entire staff was about the menu. They answered every question with confidence & gave recommendations that hit the mark perfectly.
Another highlight of the night was the sommelier, who knows his craft. He helped us choose the perfect wine to pair with our meal, not only matching the flavors beautifully but also enhancing the entire dining experience with his passion & insight.
Dorsia is a place that not only serves exceptional food but also creates a memorable experience through top-tier service, ambiance, & expertise. Can't wait to go back!
Very pleasant & welcoming service from the whole staff.
Lobster ravioli, eel & four gras appetizer, & crudo, Maple Forest dessert, & chocolate dessert were all delicious & well presented. The rhubarb send-off dessert was also great.
I think a little more effort could have been put into the presentation of the cavatelli but it was a good portion at least & my friend seemed to enjoy it.
My aviation was a little more sour that it should be but when I mixed the bottom a bit, it wasn't bad. The wine recommendation was perfect.
Decor is gorgeous. Loved that the waiter confirmed that the name is an American Psycho reference. Great retro music. Played two of my favourite Madonna songs. Look forward to checking out their basement bar at some point.
I spent $800 on dinner this evening for myself, my father & two kids. The fact that 50% of our party was not of legal drinking age will give you an idea of how much Dorsia charges for dinner. The steak was good… $240 for a 40 oz CDB. Octopus starter was well grilled & seasoned. Mark up on the wine was eye watering. Then, there was the bachelorette party taking place next to us. Cute, but makes you wonder what vibe they're going for at Dorsia. I think they want to appeal to splurgey American tourists who might squeal with delight (that actually did happen tonight!) when they realize how far their dollar goes!
Service was uneven…LONG waits between courses. The servers are young & moderately experienced. You can tell
because they don't have ascendancy over their customers.
The room is really beautiful. I'll give them that.
Lots of guys in ball caps & polo shirts & very young women. Nothing wrong with that if that's the vibe you're looking for. I will probably come back but not sure if it will be top of mind.
Dorsia was recommended to us by a bartender at our hotel & we will definitely return.
From the service to the food, Dorsia really surprised us. Everything we ordered was fresh, tasty & exciting. Service was top notch. From the knowledge of the dishes to the recommendations of wines. Everything was perfect. I highly recommend trying this place before it becomes impossible to get a reservation.
Let's start with the food: exquisite, a word so frequently misused it often feels hollow. But not here. The amuse-bouche-a delicate arrangement of sea urchin, caviar, & a whisper of Meyer lemon-was so ethereal, it felt like I was eating stardust. The main course? An herb-crusted lamb rack paired with an aged Bordeaux reduction that could have brought Nietzsche himself to tears. It was the kind of meal that makes you ponder the futility of existence, then promptly forget it as you revel in your next perfectly executed bite. The dessert, a deconstructed lavender panna cotta, was so sublime I considered framing the plate rather than letting the busboy take it away. The ambiance? Immaculate. Warm, muted lighting cast over sleek, minimalistic decor that suggested wealth without screaming it-a detail I respect. The clientele was... acceptable. A mix of high-powered executives & impeccably dressed women sipping martinis with such precision you'd think it was choreographed. The music? A discreet mix of Miles Davis & Vivaldi, a soothing backdrop that never once overpowered the muted hum of power & privilege. What truly sets Dorsia apart, though, is the service. The waiter, who had a jawline sharp enough to rival mine, attended to my every whim with the sort of reverence I deserve. My water glass never dipped below half-full. My wine pairings were so on point they bordered on clairvoyance. I tipped generously, of course-anything less would be gauche. Would I recommend Dorsia? Not to Paul Allen. He wouldn't understand the nuanced brilliance of the chef's approach, nor would he grasp the importance of a reservation. But to those who can, & do, aspire to greatness-yes. Absolutely.

I recently visited this restaurant & found the food enjoyable & the ambience quite charming. However, the service was unfortunately below par. Even something as straightforward as ordering a bottle of wine took far longer than expected, & both our main course & desserts were similarly delayed. Despite the appealing atmosphere & well-prepared dishes, the drawn-out wait times significantly impacted the overall dining experience. I hope the restaurant addresses these service issues soon, as it has the potential to be an exceptional place if the service is improved.
Had an amazing experience at this Restaurant. Went to Montreal for a couple of days with my boyfriend from NYC & stumbled upon this gem by walking around. We made a last minute reservation for our anniversary since we were lost in the area. From the moment we stepped in the service was on point. Food was delicious & cocktails/ wine as well. Manager was super attentive & made us a lil note congratulating us on our anniversary. Server pretty much gave us a rundown of what to choose & was top. At the end of our meal we asked for recommendations to go for a last drink & they offered their speak easy downstairs which was just gorgeous to finish the night!! Beautiful evening over all & will always remember this fantastic night. Thank you again to the entire team! Best of luck!!!
