A very interesting experience. I think food tastes completely different if you can't see it!! The flavors were a little bland but otherwise we had a good time. The service was excellent and the concept is unique.

The food is honestly meh. It's not bad.. it's just not great.. but the experience of eating in the dark with others is a blast and worth the trip. It's fun for dates, for times with friends, or what not. I've been several times, and the last time confirmed their lack of expertise in cooking, but it was an experience... More

A friend of ours was visitng from Scotland and told us that she had seen O Noir on a restaurant show back home and wanted to go. I had no expectations going in, and was curious about the whole "eating in the dark" thing. Definately try the surprise menu!! We were all surprised by just how DARK it is. When... More

Upon reading many reviews of O Noir, I was a little hesitant going to the restaurant. Hesitations aside, my friends and I had one of the best evenings out in a long time! The food wasn't anything special but the experience was what made it. Our server (Nasir) was outstanding. Definitely go for the surprise options on the menu! What... More

This resturant is in the basement of an old ugly building. Does not look appealing at all. we were celebrating a birthday and asked to bring a cake in and was told we cant. The menu is limited selection. the staff was not that friendly. For the price you pay, its not worth it.

As others have posed, it is an old restraurant from the 50's-60's but you're not there for the decor, rather the experience. Went as a group of 5. 4 ordered the 3 course ($38/each), 1 ordered the 2 course meal ($32/each). You have the option to choose a menu item for each course before you go into the dark. You... More

Just visited this restaurant - we had LOW expectations as there were some bad reviews online. We were shocked at how good it was! The service was amazing Chelsea took very good care of us and it was a TOTALLY unique experience. It was a girls night and so we wondered how it would all work out. The wine list... More

After hanging around in a "lounge" with very few seats, that hasn't been decorated since the 1950s, we got a very few minutes to peruse the menu and order our entire 3 course meal. Our server Gavin then took us into the pitch black dining room. He did an excellent job of explaining everything to us and making sure we... More

We knew the basic concept of O.Noir when we booked...pitch black restaurant with blind waiters...but we didn't know if there was some substance behind the gimmick. It turned out to be a great experience. On arrival, you go in to a bar where you are given menus and can order a drink if you want. The menu is simple, but... More

My girlfriends and I went to O'Noir last night because we had heard so much about the restaurant. We were greeted in the main bar area by a hostess who took our orders. Then we were led to the dining area where we were met by Tracey, our server. She led us to our table with our arms linked together... More
