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

O.Noir offers a truly unique and memorable dining experience centered around eating in complete darkness, which allows guests to engage their senses of taste, smell, and touch in a brand new way. Many diners appreciate the opportunity to step out of their comfort zones, noting that the surprise menu options add an exciting layer of discovery to the meal. The service is consistently highlighted as exceptional, with professional and attentive staff members who guide patrons through the immersive environment with kindness and skill. While the majority of guests describe their visit as a one-of-a-kind highlight, some visitors mention that the atmosphere can occasionally be affected by the noise levels of larger groups or the challenge of navigating the dark space, suggesting that smaller parties or quieter times might enhance the overall tranquility of the evening.

Every time I come it's great. The food is always excellent (I think this branch is better than the Toronto location). I always get the surprise vegetarian food. It was so good!

WOW !! La nourriture est super délicieuse (si vous aimez les pâtes aux crevettes, prenez les tagliatelles aux crevettes, le service est vraiment superbe & l'expérience merveilleuse, ça vaut le coup d'essayer !!

Nous avons été manger à o noir à Montréal a l'occasion d'un cadeau de fête de fin d'année & je dois dire que cela m'a assez déçu. A part le fait de manger dans l'obscurité (ce qui par ailleurs dénature un peu le goût des aliments à l'inverse de ce que l'on peut penser) le restaurant n'a rien de spécial & est d'ailleurs très sommaire pour le prix demandé. Aucun jeu sur les textures ou saveurs intéressant alors que c'est pour moi le but de l'expérience.. nourriture bonne mais basique. Aucune animation.. (je n'ose pas imaginer l'allure de la salle si on allume la lumière ). Autant faire le test a la maison .. Le seul point positif est d'employer des personnes malvoyantes & donc de les insérer professionnellement , ça chapeau.

The expérience is really différent, we came in a group, so everybody take hands & went to our places where u cant see nothing. But passing thw time u start to realize & enjoy the flavour & addapt to the place. The staff ask about every one & make special dishes for each one. Amazing

What a fun experience! We were 4 & would not come back with more people than that. The food was surprisingly delicious, but was outstanding was the service by our waiter Sammy. Thank you for a great evening!

O.Noir is an interesting place. It is completely shrouded in darkness to enhance the culinary experience. The servers are blind & ours (Sami,) was very talented, nothing was spilled or dropped & he was very friendly.

Very nice staff & great food! I loved the experience & the gourmet meals. The only thing I would say is that the night we went was very busy so the dark room was loud & the wait time to get our food was long too. Other than that, I loved the experience!

Great experience dining in total darkness. The food is generous in portion & quite good. The servers are amazing. The dining room does get a bit loud if its crowded. Getting the surprise dishes is great fun!
