About

Already the rage in Europe, Australia, L.A. and New York, O.NOIR is Canada’s first-ever restaurant that invites you to experience food, drink and conversation like never before IN THE DARK! It’s a sensual dining experience like no other. When you eat without your sight, your remaining senses are heightened to savour the smell and taste of food. O.NOIR does more than just fire the imagination and stimulate the senses. After a few hours in complete darkness (that’s right, no flashlights, matches, cell phones, cigarette lighters or luminous watches), customers gain a better understanding of what it’s like to be blind just like the restaurants’ entire wait staff. O.NOIR – IT’S BETTER IN THE DARK.

Review Summary

Dining at O.Noir offers a unique and immersive experience that challenges the senses by having guests eat in complete darkness. Many visitors praise the high quality of the food and the fun, mysterious nature of the surprise menu options, which encourage diners to focus on flavors and textures. The service is consistently highlighted as a major strength, with many guests commending the professional, attentive, and kind nature of the waitstaff who are visually impaired. While the concept is widely considered a memorable bucket-list activity that fosters deep conversation and empathy, some visitors note that the atmosphere can become loud depending on other guests and that the total darkness may take some adjustment. Overall, it is highly recommended as a one-of-a-kind culinary adventure.

Amazing experience. Very good cocktails, entrées & main courses. However, will try to avoid dessert as it gets a bit messy in the dark. Waiters were very friendly. As explained on the website, the noise level is higher than other restaurants as people tend to talk louder in the total dark. But overall very good experience.

This is a unique & savory experience. Of course it depends on the person what they make of things, but the setting of total darkness can facilitate the feeling of novelty that is abundant in childhood. The staff is friendly & resourceful, it's amazing how they can provide impeccable service in the dark. Truly a must visit in Montreal!
