Basically i arrived there and they stayted i had nô reservation made and that they were not doing business With open table. The result is that i lost my booking and spent energy and time explaining that i booked my reservation for that day. Unfortunately, they were completely full that day!!!

We went to this restaurant for the frist time. We heard about this concept in Paris but never came there. This first experience was great. Food is excellent, we took Filet Mignon, gorgeous! Creme Brulee as well! The service was ok, special but nice. the only thing we were disappointed was to get out of the restaurant. We had to wait for the waiter to come, and it was too long! As you are in the dark, the time is quite different, we are a little bit tired, the restaurant was noisy as well. But overall, we will definitively come back and will choose all the dinner as a Surprise.

Definitely an experience! Go with a few friends to have some laughs...whole concept is not only about heightening your other senses, but also to let loose and have fun with it! We were a group of six, but I was the one who booked the reservation and did not tell the rest of the group where we were going...Their expressions once we got there were priceless and in the end they said if I had not done it that way, they would never have agreed to going. They had a blast and were talking about it (and giggling about it) until the next day. Ultimately, it really comes down to what you make of it. Food is ok, portions are small and quite ordinary. Even in the dark, you know you are not sitting in a top notch setting...chairs and tables type banque

I came here with family a few months ago from Ontario while visiting Montreal and I have to say, we talked about this restaurant leading up to it. Some of my family members were skeptical and uncomfortable with the idea of eating in the dark but everyone in our party ended up loving the experience. The wait staff are extremely friendly and engaging. I have to admit, I was looking at this restaurant as more of an experience than a place with actual quality food. The food was actually amazing! Super impressed. Plan on coming back next time we visit and looking forward to it! We could not stop talking about our night here, it was certainly one of the main highlights of our trip!

Would have been a great experience except that the service was unacceptably poor. More than an hour wait with a reservation, once seated nothing was brought to the table for a very long time including preordered drinks. But you don't ave the option of leaving or finding someone to address the because of the complete darkness. Had so much potential, but the service made it a very disappointing experience.

The experience was interesting, but I was expecting more from the food, a more gastronomic experience.
