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 where guests enjoy high-quality meals in complete darkness. This sensory-focused environment is managed by a professional, visually impaired staff who provide exceptional and attentive service throughout the evening. Many visitors appreciate the surprise menu options, which add a fun, interactive element to the meal and encourage guests to fully engage their sense of taste and texture. While the immersive nature of the dining room creates a profound and sometimes humbling perspective on the daily lives of those without sight, the atmosphere can occasionally become loud depending on other patrons. Overall, the combination of delicious food, professional hosting, and an unconventional setting makes this a highly recommended visit for anyone seeking something distinctive in the city.

Tres le fun

Pour une soirée complètement différente, pour développer votre odorat, votre ouïe & vos papilles gustatives... c'est un must ! Noir total ! On ne voit absolument rien. Le seul bémol est le bruit. Lors de notre passage, il y avait une tablée très très bruyante. Nous avons eu beaucoup de difficulté à comprendre ce que les gens de notre groupe disaient. Sans lire sur les lèvres comme nous sommes habitués, ça devient très difficile d'entendre les conversations. Malgré cela, nous y retournerons certainement pour faire découvrir l'expérience à d'autres ! Service impeccable de la belle Sophia. Une perle !

O M G. We went there for my sisters bday & it did not disappoint. (I do not recommend to do bday there unless within family). It is complete darkness, not even a little light. You cannot take anything with you that makes light (watch, phone) as it will ruin the experience for everyone there. The food was very good & our waiter was also very professional. Thank you Fey! Going there is not just for eating but to experience what people with limited vision feel like. It has opened my eyes about how they feel & see the world. Will go again for sure. P.S. : my little cousin of 7 years old panicked when entering the PITCH BLACK dining room ( you must prepare your kids & tell them that they won't see what they eat, drink, or see the person next or in front of them.) Also, It is very weird at the beginning but after 10-20min you get used to it. W restaurant, W idea, W people, W experience

Very nice concept & experience. Got the full surprise menu, & it's really interesting to taste the food without seeing what you're eating & trying to guess what you got. Definitely recommend for the experience. Only negative is the main course felt a bit overcooked & the cocktail was ok for the prices. That said, still an overall positive experience

This has to be experienced to be appreciated. Our apprehensions about being able to navigate the evening faded quickly as our waiter Sammy led us to our table. We chose the surprise omnivore menu, wine, & cocktail & trying to identify the food added to the experience. This was a great date night & there was no shortage of conversation & no screens to distract us. Loved it.

This place is amazing. Great concept/staff & the drinks. I appreciate the spice & carabian/Latin inspired drinks they have.

Fantastic experience! Totally immersive in the blackness. Only recommendation is for fellow diners to be aware of how loud you are. It's an intimate experience in the dark , leave your kids at home. Would love to go again.
