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.

I would reccomend this place 110%. Whoever is reading this , this is a great place to have a nice diner date with your special somebody. What a cozy place & the food was honestly amazing. I reccomend the oysters as an apetizer & having the NY strip steak & combo it with mashed patatoes. It was delicious. I ordered the Purple haze cocktail & it was fantastic as well. A great experience. To the owner ;) congratulations you have done a superb job 👏

Good. Not great. I'd say they are focusing on making this a "cool" place, but the service is lackluster. The steak was good, not exceptional. Brussels sprouts were saturated in some kind of sauce & were significantly overcooked. I would have expected more. However, I will probably try one more time.

We came here for Valentines day & overall it was lower mid quality. The service was pretty good, no issues there. However the food was not quality that you would want for the money that you're spending. We ordered oysters, beef tartare & tomahawk for 2. The oysters were very good actually, I've had PEI oysters in PEI & the oysters they had although not quite as good they we're pretty damn close. The Beef tartare was rather disappointing however, the color was off & clearly they tried to mask bad quality beef with A LOT of salt. The most disappointing part was the Tomahawk for two. They claim that the steak itself is supposed to be 40oz. The taste was decent but my issue is with the presentation. They conveniently pre cut the steak & also place it in a strange fashion. They place the bone over your cuts like a rainbow to not show the actual size of the meat. This is obviously an attempt to have some of signature instagram moment. Honestly all this to say there is NO WAY that was 40oz. They clearly to all this weak flair in order to oversell you on a small amount of meat. - 150$ Overall I feel like we were taken for a ride. Advice: You're food is solid, but you're charging Wayyyyy too much for what you're giving out.

Je suis allée au Sel Noir ce soir & j'ai passé une superbe soirée! Les drinks étaient délicieux, la nourriture aussi, mais ce qui m'a le plus plu était le service; notre serveur était Gabriel & il nous a fait passer une soirée mémorable: ses recommandations, son professionnalisme & son charisme m'ont permis de vivre une expérience unique, j'y retournerai certainement en espérant ravoir le même serveur!
