Review Summary

Overall, reviews for Sel Noir Steakhouse highlight a warm and elegant vibe, with excellent service and standout steaks that are often cooked to perfection and richly flavorful. Guests frequently praise generous portions, thoughtful menu options, and a well curated wine and cocktail program, making it ideal for a date, celebration, or a night out with friends. While the experience is largely positive and many describe the atmosphere as inviting and the staff as friendly and attentive, a few visits note slower service or inconsistencies in salt, seasoning, or timing, and some dishes that did not meet expectations.

Overall, Sel Noir stands out as a top choice for steak in Montreal for those seeking quality cuts, a refined ambiance, and reliable hospitality.

Came for dinner Saturday night & to be honest expectations were pretty high because of the reviews & the price point. Huge disappointment. Service was slow, but OK overall. The amount of oil used in every dish was mind blowing. A nice piece of meat should not be bathed in oil. Mushrooms were drenched & carrots the same... Lastly, I was always taught that you can judge a place by its washrooms & let me tell you they were absolutely FILTHY. Did not spend more than 30 seconds in there.. All of that to say that for the location & the price point when you compare it to the big guys In terms of steakhouse, It's Doesn't come close...

Dark but cozy. Most of the food was decent, the tomahawk steak wasn't as flavourful as we'd hope. The mash potatoes were the best part of the meal, carrots & mushrooms are pretty close too! Our waiter was very distracted so we didn't see much of him unfortunately. That could use some work but we still had fun. The price of the steaks is all you get & not worth the money, then if you want sides, it's all at an extra cost. You'd think at $60 a plate you would get some veggies or salad but nope, not here. Drinks were fantastic! There is so many food choices out there so once was enough to know we won't return here again.

This restaurant definitely deserves 5 stars! The food was absolutely divine, the service was incredible & the atmosphere was perfect. The music was just at the right level for us to enjoy (i.e: we could have a conversation without having to yell to hear each other). I was there with a group of women & the staff was so kind, patient & attentive to us. The burrata was excellent & even though this is technically a steakhouse, I went for the gnocchi & was not disappointed at all - it was GOOD! The dessert of the moment was just the right touch to end the meal without being too heavy. Finally, given the disaster that is downtown Montréal for parking, I was very grateful that they offer valet service & happily took advantage of it! If you were on the fence about trying Sel Noir out, let this be your sign that you need to get yourself there asap! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Came here for a girls night in July & had the best time! I have a three course meal & the food was so good I only managed to take a photo of my burrata because I was too busy stuffing my face. Everything was fresh, cooked to perfection & delicious. The atmosphere was cozy too & the mocktails I ordered were top notch. Definitely would come back next time I'm in town.

Love this place! If you're looking for a steakhouse with more of an intimate ambiance, this is the place. Been a few times & every time has been perfect. Even held an event with nearly 20 guests & all of us were shocked how on point the service & food was for such a large group. Our steaks were fantastic. Highly also recommended the burrata & lobster risotto. The owners are also so accommodating. Highly recommend.

Had a great experience at this chic & intimate steak house. The owner & the staff were incredibly friendly & the service was on point all night. The burrata was just so fresh, & the octopus cooked to perfection with a delicious nduja sauce that gave it an extra spice. The Ribeye was very tender & had a nice crisp on the outer. The lobster & shrimp risotto was creamy & delicious, with a generous portion of seafood on top. A simple yet classic side was the Mac & cheese but probably one of the best I've had. Can't wait to go back to this gem in Montreal. Perfect for date nights or even a group! Would definitely recommend.

I had the pleasure of dining at Sel Noir recently. We were greeted warmly upon entering. I ordered Oysters to start & for my main, the Ribeye with mashed potatoes & a salad. I found their food quality & service exceptional. Portions were generous. I will be returning to experience more of their menu & recommending to family & friends. Cheers.

Superbe découverte entre amis. Tout est frais, goûteux & le service est attentionné. La cuisson des aliments était impeccable ainsi que tous les accords. Nous avons été très bien conseillés par le propriétaire Xavier. Je le recommande fortement & je vais certainement y retourner. Matthew

Went there with a group of friends for my birthday. We had a blast, food was amazing, service was on point, & the vibe was good. The waiter made a mistake on my drink order & quickly fixed it & offered shots to all of us :) we appreciated it & showed us the level of service this place has. Ribeye steak is a must, it was absolutely delicious!
