Superb French dining in an intimate setting. Great steak tartare, confit duck and crème brûlée. Drinks list pairs nicely. Appreciated a high end beer choice too from wildflower View all feedback.
It’s been a while since we’ve been back to Noir in Richmond some 8 years in fact. Our original experience was more of a fine dining restaurant and our most recent visit in July of 2022 would suggest that like all things this place has changed too. My new connection with Noir was one of a more relaxed dining experience. Where the staff were welcoming and the food was more bistro like in style but was great all round. We had three guests and it pretty much came to $100 a head. Which is fairly reasonable. So if you haven’t been in a while and want a more relaxed dining experience check them out on Swan Street in Richmond.
Enjoyed the lively and relaxed atmosphere. Food was very good and not cliches of French fare which we appreciated thoroughly. The desert, the orange and chocolate gateau, was exquisite and heavenly. By far the highlight of the night. Go for the tasting menu. It is outstanding value at 80 bucks. Will definitely recommend and return.
Came here for some French food. Love the beef tartare, the chicken liver parfait and the duck confit. My friends love the scallop, I'm not a big fan though. Same with the calamari. I tried out the panisse but didn't really like it. For dessert, we had orange and chocolate gateau and raspberry and white chocolate souffle. I would say the gateau has a better flavour palette for me.
It’s sad that google has only five stars rating. I will definitely rate more stars for Noir if I can. We have celebrated my Mom’s birthday here and it was a hundred percent fantastic experience. Nice service nice people, tasty food super fresh and locates on a good spot. We have ordered the tasting courses. The olive oil for the bread has garlic added which makes it differed from what I normally eat. We were discussing why the butter doesn’t melt. And I guess they got daily fresh delivery directly after the butter has been made? The entrée plate was special, their oysters are flavored with champagne and it’s the first time we have an oyster in such flavor it emphasises the fresh of oyster. The puff was salty and creamy very French. And we also love the liver. The salad tastes super organic. Their choice of inventory is pretty smart. And I have always been missing of the French style duck. I was once impressed by the duck and have been looking for a good restaurant that can do the duck well. The duck here was juicy and crispy absolutely what I love. Btw I forgot to take the photo of lobster dumplings. Just go and try, highly recommend.
The food looks great and taste great too. Atmosphere s really good. They seem to be short of staff. Constantly chasing their tale. There are lots of great food in the area as well. Overall i think it is a little too pricy for what it is. It s too much to pay $350 for 2 including 2 drinks. Apart from that it s all tumbs ups.
