Overall, Rose Orange is described as a standout rooftop with stunning views and a lively yet relaxed vibe, especially at sunset, where the ambiance feels stylish and welcoming. Cocktails are repeatedly praised for creativity and balance, though some guests feel prices are high for what they consider average drinks and note that food is not always available yet. Crowds can be challenging on busy nights with long lines and a guestlist system that can be confusing or uneven, and table availability may feel time limited. Staff are frequently commended for warmth, attentiveness, and professionalism, with certain bartenders and hosts singled out for making guests feel at home, while a few reviews point to occasional lapses in service or cleanliness. Overall, it comes across as a memorable spot for great drinks and views, best on good nights, with crowds and price considerations to keep in mind for planning.
changed a bit from last year, in the best possible way ! The place was packed so we were standing at the bar, to which we agreed after Sarah kindly explained that we'd have to wait longer for a table, but we could enjoy the music even more (dj set was amazing)!!
We had rough start so this lady made us sit at one place, we asked if we could change place because we didn't like the vibes & loud music & she was too rude to change our place & said we can not change our place & once if it's changed you can not come back again here ... but here comes this beautiful lady named Alia she saved our day with her warm smiles & great service..
Rooftop bar with amazing views. Live DJ. Music a bit too loud. Very windy up there but they have heaters near the bar area & high tops. Our drinks were delicious - highly recommend the spicy marg. Pretty strong tbh... though prices are up there. Didn't try any food. Service at the bar was very nice & social- & a very lovely gentleman came to our table to refresh our drinks. The crowd is very young, hipster. Felt pretty out of place but it was cool nonetheless. D1 elevator all the way up. Then through revolving doors & up elevator again to Rose Orange. Enjoy!
I'm only giving 2 stars because of the view & the music. The view is truly this place's selling point. However, getting up there was really difficult. We had to go a floor up & ask someone to scan their chip in the elevator to access the terrace. I visited on a Thursday. The crowd was nice, basically the same type of people you'd expect to see at Cathcart before 7 PM (no kids). The service was terrible. Our waitress was incompetent. We were the first to arrive, & no one bothered to take our order. I had to flag down a random employee to order drinks, which were served in plastic cups. They didn't even get the drinks right. We ordered 3 vodka martinis-1 dirty & 2 extra dirty. We received 3 extra dirty vodka martinis but I kept the drink anyway. The waitress would have known if she was there to take our order in the first place. 1 vodka martini = 18$ Their cocktail menu is lacking options & originality. The quantity of liquid in each drink was different, with one friend having noticeably less alcohol. I also had to flag down a random employee to order food as our waitress disappeared again. We all shared a burrata, which was outrageously priced at $27 for a very small portion. The bread that came with the burrata was not fresh & was hard to chew. The food menu consists of 5 options, but we were told they also serve sushi from upstairs. The sushi prices are literally Jatoba prices-about $40 for 7 pieces. If you want your establishment to be upscale, don't serve drinks in plastic cups. The DJ was fun & played really nice techno vibey music. There are couches & tables, & I suggest making a reservation for easier access. You can definitely order bottles, but they're not cheap. Overall, my experience was mediocre, although I had fun with my friends. I would most likely not return.
What a beautiful terrace with breathtaking views & ambiance. Comfy sofas, unique cocktails & great service, very classy place with a nice clientele & great music we recommend for sure !
You'd expect a better cocktail list for a lounge. Gorgeous sunset but atmosphere was lacking, maybe because the music wasn't loud enough. Service was as expected for a busy terrace.

Do not come here. We made a reservation for Saturday evening, we arrived around 715. The service is super bad, people act like they are offended that u asked them for something & they take a while to reach your table for drinks. They forget to even give u menus & when u ask for them, they forget u asked for them. They have barely any food on the menu, plus they run out of the drinks. Prices are on the high end of high end for cocktails & are not even good. Nacarat has better prices & quality. The only positives are the music & the views. Around 8-9 the server came over asking us to pay our bills when some of us have just arrived & ask for the first drink. They told us that its going to rain & that they were closing because of that. We couldnt cancel the drinks we recently ordered & they didnt accomodate us inside.
I had to take the time to write this review. The ambiance, the service, the cocktails & wine selection, the spectacular views, the music Just perfect !!! Rose Orange..... Was a great bar terrasse experience, beer, cocktail, a few very well selected fine wines, appetizers, great music, heated terrasse with huge views of all Montreal in a good vibe atmosphere then 2nd stop Sora .... Exceptional interior amazing views all glass bar/restaurant with an original way to serve sushi, selected Sakes, cocktails & wines, again with surrounded fantastic views & great service mmmmm....Delicious, spicy & fresh!! Then to end the night Hiatus, you still have amazing views anywhere you sit ! HIATUS (means PAUSE in Latin, I asked) Fine cuisine with the perfect sides, wine selection, exceptional service, simply amazing ! WHAT A SURPRISING & EXCLUSIVE EXPERIENCE ! These 3 bar/restaurants really won us over. Great concept...We will return!
