Phenomenal dining experience. Refined yet relaxed atmosphere and decor.
Server Guillaume was the best waiter I have had in a restaurant, very attentive and knowledgeable.
Food was exceptional. Delicious variety of appetizers (I recommend the Mille fueille with chicken liver mousse) and pasta. Both seafood and steaks were cooked and seasoned excellently.
Cocktails were very good as well, with a broad selection of wine, my personal favorite was the Negroni with olives.
Dessert left much to be desired was our only gripe with this other excellent restaurant.
Bathrooms and facilities were also in notably great condition.
This was one of the best dining experiences all around I’ve ever had. This restaurant alone can make a trip to Montreal worth it.

Had a good experience at Dorsia. Heard a lot about it and was happy to try it out.
First of all – the place is truly beautiful, well designed and tasteful layout.
The service was good. We tried a few different dishes. The highlight was the red beet agnolotti and tuna carpaccio were standout dishes: unique presentation, texture and flavours.

We had an amazing overall dining experience at Dorsia tonight. Did the 4 course tasting menu, all of the dishes were fantastic, the decor is beautiful, and service here was flawless. This truly is a special restaurant to visit for a special occasion, we were blown away tonight and would highly recommend it here!

Phenomenal experience at Dorsia!. While it was a pre-set menu for valentine’s day, it did not disappoint. The highlight however, is the attentive staff, be it the servers, hostesses or mixologist, they all distinguished themesleves with their care and attention to detail. Special shout-out to Sebastien at the bar, who was incredibly attentive and knowledgeable- made our experience memorable.

This restaurant was really great, it was fancy and high end, but the food was excellent and not in tiny portions like most other high end restaurants. It was the perfect amount of experimental but flavourful, they didn’t have any crazy odd food pairings, so its safe for people who don’t have an adventurous palette, but also has some interesting dishes to try if you’re daring.

The atmosphere was nice. The food was really good , however the service was a bit slow. We had to wait almost an hour for our main. I would recommend to try the tiramisu dessert for sure!

That was a 5 stars experience to me and my friend. We had two drinks, both very good.
We both had steak tartare for starter (hands down the best tartare I’ve ever had) which was a pretty decent portion. Then we had two plates of pasta: I purposely picked the simplest one: paccheri with tomato sauce, parmesan cheese, pepper and basil, so you can really tell the quality of the ingredients. It was heavenly, the paccheri were cooked to perfection. My friend had a more elaborate pasta (can’t remember now) and it was ridiculously good. We had dessert and the bill was 230$, plus I left 22% tip because the staff was amazing: very attentive and professional without being too stiff as you see in some places that confuse ‘high-end experience’ with bloated stiffness and too much form. We felt pampered and looked after, just great. The atmosphere inside the restaurant is also beautifully balanced: we got greeted by a really lovely girl who made us feel immediately at home, and took our coats. The interior design is classy and elegant (and I mean elegant, not douchy-bro-gold-chain “elegant”), soft lights and a pleasant crowd on the younger side. I’m taking my girlfriend next week, absolutely loved it. Definitely came for the name (I love the movie) but stayed for the quality of the food and staff. Thank you guys!

I almost never leave reviews, but I have to for Dorsia. This restaurant is nothing short of a full 5.0 rating! My wife and I dined here on a Saturday night and were blown away by the exceptional service, delectable food, and elegant ambiance. The menu—both food and wine/drinks—has something for everyone and at a price that’s highly reasonable for the treat your mouth is about to experience. We had the Caesar salad (possibly one of the best we’ve ever had; picture attached) and cavatelli with duck sausage (again, probably one of the most unique and tasty pastas we’ve ever had). Dessert was similarly amazing—the chocolate mixture, carrot cake, and house-made ice cream were all phenomenal (yes, we had a lot of dessert; don’t judge us). As we wrapped up our meal, the waitress mentioned that the next night would be the first time the restaurant was open on a Sunday. Knowing this, my wife and I immediately canceled our other dinner reservation and returned for a second night in a row on Sunday. The same incredible all-around experience on Sunday. Laurent—the restaurant director—was incredibly kind and knowledgeable, as was every single service member we interacted with. You’d be foolish to pass up on dining here.

Dorsia has a beautiful interior and atmosphere something really special for Montreal. I enjoyed the design and overall vibe of the place. Service was friendly and attentive, cocktails were good (a bit strong for my taste, but they adjusted them without any issue, which I appreciated).
We tried tasting menu with 8 courses, but the experience was underwhelming. While the meat and fish dishes were delicious, the portions were extremely small, and some courses took 20–30 minutes to arrive, making the whole dinner last around 3 hours. Considering the restaurant was only half full, the slow pacing was disappointing.
The first course was 1 small oyster, followed by scallop and tuna, crab salad, foie gras (with not enough crackers, cherry sauce was delicious ), the pasta bottoni wasn’t very tasteful. First of all, I didn’t like the sauce, and the portion was very small. The fish plates were good, and I also liked the filet mignon. Bread was served almost at the end and was just with olive oil for a place of this level, I would have liked something more special and served earlier. Small details like this make a big difference and were missing here. The mignardise was just meringue with cream. It definitely didn’t feel like part of a tasting menu. This definitely needs improvement. The dessert itself I liked — it was very tasty — but when it arrived, the cream was already melting.
This isn’t my first visit to Dorsia, but with tasting menu I actually left hungry, which is not something you expect from a high-end degustation menu.
In short: beautiful interior and atmosphere, great service, tasty dishes, but the tasting menu fell short in portion size, timing, and creativity.

Dorsia is a highlight around Old Montreal. Despite not having been open that long, it is already on the Michelin Guide, and it isn’t without reason. The food is arguably better than other restaurants with stars. The decoration and atmosphere is stunning. The service was amazing from what I observed at our table, and others. The food was very tasty and healthy, and the plating speaks for itself. We went for lunch, their set menu was well priced. Compared to Michelin star restaurants, the only real difference was the ceramics and silverware, but I would choose Dorsia any day over other restaurants with stars within the city. I almost never write reviews, but Dorsia deserves one without reservation.
