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.

Superbe expérience ! Possibilité de choisir ses plats ou pas. Nous avons opté pour les plats « surprise » ! C'était très bon & le service excellent !
Passage obligé si vous êtes à Montréal.
Merci !

The experience is very unique.

The atmosphere: For the bar itself, it has a very comfortable atmosphere. For the dinning dark room, there is no light totally! Everything is perfect.

The dishes: We tried the "surprise dishes", clients can choose 2 or 3 services. The price is very reasonable. After you decide the menu, you can enter the dark room to explore the darkness. The flavor of the dish is really good. I really recommend you to have a try.

Ps. All services are bilingual. The waiter/waitress will lead you into the darkroom.( you only need to put your hands on their shoulders) . After you seat youself, they will present you the locations of your knife & forks. If you have any questions during the dinner, you can just call their name. It's really a unique experience. That allows us to experience the life without visualization, however, other sense in the darkness will become very sensitive. If you don't have dark phobia & claustrophobia, It's really worth to go to this restaurant.

Super expérience pour un souper père/fille! Notre serveur Sammy , très attentif, un vrai guide avec ses explications! 2 petits bémols (qui viennent des voyants de l'équipe)
1-ils se sont trompés en donnant ma commande à mon serveur.
2-malgré avoir passé 3-4 minutes dans la portion éclairée du bar , carte de crédit en main pour régler ma facture, tout ces serveurs avec leurs 2 yeux fonctionnels , ont cru bon envoyer un de leur comparse me courir après à l'extérieur du restaurant pour me demander si j'avais payé... ils ne m'avaient pas vu :

Very unique experience, worth the price. The complete darkness is slightly unsettling at first but once you adjust to it it's super cool & interesting. Definitely recommend!
