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.

Ce fut une expérience extraordinaire

C'est une très belle expérience de manger complètement dans le noir. J'ai emmené mes deux garçons & nous avons vécu cette soirée avec beaucoup de satisfaction car la nourriture est très bonne & le service est excellent. Très bonne expérience à refaire.

Had the most amazing restaurant experience tonight. Sophia is an absolute gem! Truly a sensory overload, but in the most beautiful way. I would recommend this establishment to absolutely everyone who is open minded enough to attempt. I was brought here as a surprise, but what a magnificent wonder this was.

Food was very good however the whole experience was very disappointing since it was extremely noisy ( due to other parties enjoying themselves obviously without « visual barriers » & our senses were probably focusing on auditive stimuli) we left before the dessert. Even the waiter did not understand my husband when he asked for more wine & brought du pain. Definitively worth trying but avoid Fridays & Saturdays if you look for a more Zen atmosphere

L'homme qui nous a accueilli (je n'ai pas son nom malheureusement) était attentionné, nous a bien expliqué le menu & le déroulement de la soirée.
Fé, notre serveur, était exceptionnel.
Nous avons adoré l'expérience & n'avons que de bons mots pour le concept O Noir. BRAVO!

Parfois trop bruyant mais on comprends que ne rien voir fait en sorte que les gens compensent peut être en parlant plus fort
