The food was fantastic, the drinks were phenomenal, the atmosphere and wait staff were beyond measure. We will def be back again!!!

Noir Dark Spirits is an outstanding establishment with well crafted meals and drinks that cleverly match the gothic theme of the bar/restaurant.We arrived at 6 p.m. on a Saturday evening. Although there were plenty of tables available, they filled up quickly, so it is strongly recommend making reservations in advance.The pre-dinner cocktails were strong and delicious, again matching the spooky atmosphere. I had The Tarot, which is similar to it Long Island iced tea. The drink was served with a tarot card of your choice, although the cards presented face down and you pick one, which is yours to keep. My girlfriend had The Re-animator, which consisted of vodka, melon liqueur, pineapple and lime juice, and tonic. Both drinks were served with a bubbling mist rising from the glass.The meals were savory, balanced, and extremely flavorful. The gouda Mac and cheese came with plenty of bacon and was served out of a skull, the top of which was carved into a bowl. The gouda was smoked, and pasta was served al dente. It was absolutely amazing!The Vampire Slayer chicken tacos was another fabulous treat, with a wooden skewer staked through the tacos and piercing a hot red cherry pepper, and came garnished with a clove of garlic. The two tacos were stuffed with cheese and chicken and was delightful to the taste buds.Although the establishment had tables, it is first and foremost a bar. Although children are permitted between 6 and 8 p.m., I strongly discourage bringing anyone younger than 14. The place is filled with loud rock music, but not so loud that you need to shout to be heard. We sat underneath a speaker, and could still have pleasant conversation.Noir Dark Spirits is a must for those looking for an alternative dining experience. It was a fun night out, and the service was incredible. Kudos to our server Lou, who was extremely friendly and pleasant.

great atmosphere attentive and knowledgeable staff...fun and clever drinks and tasty imaginative food! everything you would want in an evening!!

Such a fun place! The staff was great, food was awesome and drinks were so fun! I love that you offer NA versions of your cocktails too ❤️

Everything about the experience at Noir was outstanding!! First off, I accidentally made our reservation for the wrong day. The super nice ladies at the door not only seated my party of five, thereby saving our evening, but did so with a smile, without making me feel bad about my mistake. So classy, and truly appreciated! They even apologized in advance if service was a little slow since they weren't expecting us; it ended up being perfectly timely!The atmosphere and music were excellent. Their darkly whimsical dishes were so unique and beyond delicious. And the drinks... just wow! Highly recommend the Butterbeer, and they also have a great draft selection. All the stars! Go here! :)

Love love loved everything about this place! It was so unique and the food was excellent. Drinks were so cool! The tacos were amazing. Definitely will be here again :)

Such an amazing experience! My dark side loved every minute and the food was delicious. Service was also fabulous and the assistant manager took the time to listen to our suggestions. The only disappointment of the night was there was no dessert available. Everything else was fantastic!

Had such a nice Valentine's dinner here. My fiance and I have been wanting to check this place out for awhile now and will definitely be back, everything was amazing, drinks, food, service and atmosphere, definitely reccomend!!

Amazing food, drinks, service and, of course, fantastic vibe. Highly recommend. If you’re in Scranton, it’s a must! Worth the trip if you aren’t from the area for sure.

This place is so cool!! What a fun and unique night out! We’ve never been to anything like it. It’s a great date night location! Very cool atmosphere and very interesting drinks. You can tell that they put a lot of care into providing a fun experience for their customers!
