Le concept fait déjà fureur en Europe, en Australie, à Los Angeles et à New York. Maintenant, O.NOIR, le tout premier restaurant au Canada qui vous invite à vivre l'expérience d'une bonne table et de conversations agréables comme jamais auparavant DANS LE NOIR! Il s’agit d’une expérience culinaire sensuelle entièrement unique! Lorsqu’on mange sans voir, nos autres sens s’intensifient pour savourer l’arôme et le goût de la nourriture. Dans l’obscurité, les aliments prennent une saveur culinaire exceptionnelle. O.NOIR va plus loin que seulement stimuler l’imagination et les sens. Après avoir passé quelques heures dans la noirceur totale (oui, vous avez bien lu… aucune lampe de poche, bougie, allumette ou montre lumineuse, aucun téléphone cellulaire ou briquet), les clients comprennent mieux ce que c’est que vivre avec la cécité, tout comme le personnel de service du restaurant. O.NOIR… C’EST MEILLEUR DANS L’OBSCURITÉ.
Nos Spécialités
Tartare, canard fumé, hamburgers, salades, ceviche, poutine, raviolis, côtes levées, jarret d’agneau, loup de mer, desserts, cocktails, carte de vins, carte de spiritueux & bières.
O'Noir offre une expérience immersive et unique où le dîner dans l'obscurité total magnifie les sens et transforme chaque bouchée en découverte. Le service est chaleureux et attentif, le personnel guide avec clarté et assure une ambiance bienveillante tout au long de la soirée. La cuisine est délicieuse et généreuse, avec des options surprenantes et des desserts particulièrement appréciés, et le menu surprise ajoute une dimension ludique et conviviale. Cet endroit est souvent recommandé pour une occasion spéciale ou une sortie différente, et invite à réfléchir sur les perceptions tout en savourant les échanges entre convives. En somme, cette expérience marie sens, découverte et convivialité, et vaut vraiment le détour.
Amazing experience! Highly recommend. Sophia was our server. She was great at explaining how things worked. Also checked on us several times to make sure we were ok. The food was excellent. Big portions. I had the tuna appetizer & the slow cooked roast beef. Both were excellent. The room was complete darkness. You are unable to see anything. Sounded liked the place was busy & people were enjoying themselves. Would definitely visit again
The experience was definitely Novel. Our waiter Sammy was INCREDIBLE & guided us seamlessly through the evening. His energy was absolutely excellent & made the whole experience. I found the quality of the surprise cocktails & the food overall to be a little sub par for what I would have expected, I did like the almond flavoured surprise cocktail though (almond + rum?) & the scallops were really really good. The dessert flan was however not good, for some reason I really didnt like it & I'm a huge fan of cardamom. I also god a surprise main & was kind of disapointed with my food, (it was duck but I thought it was chicken) I wish that there had been more ceativity & flavour into the food as because our visual senses were gone it was the main focus. Also, this is definitely extra, but I wish they had a live musician instead of just radio speaker music. I found the playlist to be distracting & made me feel a bit lost in the dark. If they had live harp, for instance, I think the element of something tangible & real for sound would really enhance everything. Definitely a very interesting experience though that I valued. But for a $90 bill I definitely wish the food was tastier.

Amazing experience & food ! We did not get the surprise menu because we don't like fish 😉it was scaredy-cat dark ! There is a lounge area with lights were they take your order & you leave your cellphone or purse in a locker. They recommend you to go to the toilet before... once you are in I recommend do not stand up again until you are finished ! All this comments about if people gets touchy there are ridiculous! If u want cheaper darkness just go to the movie theatre or rent a room ! Let us enjoy a nice experience!
What an awesome experience this was! There's nothing like it anywhere in the World! The entire service is in the dark, & you really can't see anything! Every server working here is legally blind, & it's so impressive.
Our server Fe was such an all star all night. His story is so gut wrenching, but regardless, he was spirited, outgoing, & professional. The food was really good, & I highly recommend doing the "surprise" menu.
If you're looking to venture out & try something unique, then this is the place for you! The food, the atmosphere, & the outstanding customer service was just incredible! Two thumbs way up to Binky, Gabriel an our bartender Laryssa for being such amazing hosts!
It was a very surreal experience, with so many disembodied voices in the dining room in utter darkness. It many ways it felt like some contemporary sound installation. The food was very rich & delictible, although I ended up eating most of it with fingers. It was also surprising the effect darkness has on time.
Despite (because of?) being in darkness, this is a community experience. Wait staff address you by name & talk you through the experience, you feel very connected to those eating with you & the connection to the food is more intense (never enjoyed a mushroom so much ). A must do once for everyone & you'll likely repeat.
Amazing experience eating dinner in the dark at O.Noir. Everyone needs to try at least once. Also, the friendly staff made the experience even better. Thanks for a great experience!

Second time visiting O Noir. Amazing experience! Food was excellent. The surprise did not disappoint. Can be a bit stressful at first as it is so dark but once you start talking with your party & enjoy your beverage it is simply amazing. Would go back & highly recommend to anyone to live that experience
This was such a wonderful, unique, & memorable experience. It was very jarring at first to sit in complete darkness, but after orientating ourselves it was so enjoyable. For anyone who has told secrets in the dark at a sleepover, that's the vibe our conversation took. It felt like we left so much closer to one another after the experience. On top of everything, the food was absolutely incredible & the staff was welcoming, comforting, & kind. I would highly recommend!
Had an amazing time at Onoir. The food was delicious, the service was great & I really enjoyed eating in the dark. I really recommend trying this unique experience.
Definitely a new experience, eating in the dark feels different, but should be experienced at least one r, all your other sense are heightened & you must depend on smell & touch. Would try again. Foods & service was good as well.
I wish they had the option of not eating in the dark too. The food is awesome & I would come back more often if it wasn't such a hassle to eat here. It gets old after the first experience.
The experience is extremely unique! If you're thinking "oh, how dark can the room actually be", you'll definetely be surprised. The service was AMAZING! better than most restaurants, our waiter Sammy was always checking in on us & making sure we were having a great experience. Super eye opening & the food was actually very good as well. I wouldnt recommend this place to people who have a lot of anxiety or who are picky eaters, but overall amazing time :)
Amazing experience! The best part is that even if we weren't in the dark, the food on its own would be worth it. Other restaurants like that don't offer the same quality of food & service. Here the whole experience is just fantastic.
Best experience ever !! Our blind waiter Sami was so caring & friendly plus the food was really good & an adventure to find out what you're actually eating on pure darkness. I can only recommend their place :)
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.
