Review Summary

Overall, reviews frame Sel Noir Steakhouse as a stylish, intimate spot with a warm, speakeasy vibe where the atmosphere and service often shine alongside high quality cooking. The steaks, seafood and cocktails are frequently praised for flavor, tenderness and thoughtful preparation, with many calls of the ribeye, tomahawk, surf and turf and lobster specials among the highlights, and several notes about excellent night-out options like date nights and celebrations. The service is described as attentive, friendly and efficient when at its best, making Sel Noir a popular choice for memorable dinners; ambiance, lighting and a lively yet not too noisy setting are repeatedly cited as major pluses. Yet some experiences are more mixed: a few encounters with slower or imperfect service, questions on value given the price, and occasional dishes reported as underseasoned, overcooked or not up to expectations, reminding readers that quality can vary by visit. Reservations are often recommended, and reviews credit strong staff knowledge and thoughtful touches from management. In sum, Sel Noir Steakhouse is portrayed as a top-tier steakhouse option in Montreal for serious carnivores and lovers of a refined night out, with consistent praise for food and hospitality tempered by occasional service or dish missteps.

Had the surf & turf for 2. First off, service is great & attentive. 40oz tomahawk is flavorful, tender & juicy with a nice grilled taste. Shrimps are A1...overall great romantic experience & the quality to match it.

Première expérience & sans aucun doute la dernière . L'endroit est cozy , c'est chaleureux
L'homme a l'entrée qu'y m'a accroché mon manteau j'ai trouvé que c'était une superbe attention.
Pour ce qui est du service juste wow
Nous avons eu la chance d'être servie par Isatys , une adorable jeune femme qui connaît bien le menu. Nous avons pris pour 2 personnes le Tomahawk surf & turf c'était excellent
Un gros merci

Good & friendly service... nice ambiance... solid experience. Great cook on the steak. Enjoy the salmon gravlax & the burratta to start. Split the surf n turf for 2. Which is a very generous portion. Really nice crust on the tomahawk... ive been back a few times... really holds up**
Went back in November... it holds up. The new French onion soupnwith short rib is amazing.

Had a great experience at Sel Noir! Went here for dinner with a group of 12 guys to celebrate a bachelor party. The space is beautiful & gives perfect steakhouse vibes. The staff gave excellent recommendations to feed us all within our budget. We ended up getting a few Rib Eye surf & turf meals for the table as well as an assortment of appetizers. The steaks were huge & all the meat was all beautifully cooked. The bone marrow beef tartare & grilled octopus appetizers were also incredible.

The wine selection was extensive & we all left there feeling like we ate a meal fit for royalty. 10/10 would recommend as the food & service is awesome. Will absolutely be going back. Thank you to all the staff for the excellent meal & hospitality!

One of my new favorite joints! The simplicity of the options & quality of the food are great. Good wine selections to pair with the surf & turf dual plate. Definitely check this place out!

We had the pleasure of dining at Sel & Noir, & it was nothing short of incredible! We ordered the Chef's Plate, a delightful surf-&-turf creation featuring perfectly cooked steak, succulent lobster, & tiger shrimps. The plate was accompanied by loaded baked potatoe, & crispy Parmesan fries-all bursting with flavor & cooked to perfection. Compliments to the chef & the team!!

The Carpacio was another highlight-fresh, exquise, & dressed to perfection. As for the cocktails, they were absolutely delicious & expertly crafted, adding the perfect touch to our meal. Compliments to the bartenders!

One of the best meal experiences I have ever had! Jasmine was the best with the attentiveness & made the whole evening exceptional! The burrata was delicious...must order like many of the reviews suggest. I shared the surf & turf for 3 people & everything was perfectly cooked & seasoned to perfection! Tender lobster tail, steak cooked to the right temperature & the carrots were yummy! I will we back...one of my top 3 dining experiences for sure!

A wonderful experience. The place looks great & the food was just delicious. We shared the Gravlax at first, followed by the Surf & Turf for two ( could fill 3 person for sure ) & finished with the crème brûlée ( which was one of the best we've tasted so far ).

A great Steakhouse, considerably above the keg & others. We had the Surf & Turf, & everything was cooked perfectly. Desserts were great too. Discreet on the outside, amazing, cozy decoration inside.

Expérience parfaite, mon nouveau restaurant préféré à Montréal, le surf & turf, les cocktails & le service étaient excellents! L'ambiance est parfaite pour un 5 à 7 au bar entre amis & tout autant pour un souper trois services à la table.
