A bit too much narrative from the bouncer before we were allowed in, a bit too much fog inside, a bit too much tired 80s music from the DJ, & a bit too much harassment from a drunk local patron (not the venue's fault).
The venue has potential, but we left early due to the factors listed above.
The drinks were fine, but the lighting was so dim it was difficult to read the menu & appreciate the work the bartender put into the drinks.View more
Got a table at the bar last minute. Had the BEST bartender walk us through the food & sake. Shared stories of Japan. We asked for some teaching on how to eat traditionally. He was so genuine & took this experience beyond anything we have had in the past. The food & the vibe & the music (dj) was wonderful but his personality & time is something we will talk about for a long time. The club vibe after dinner was also really great. Music dancing food team 10 out of 10.View more
My favourite bar in Montreal! Found this place a couple years ago & is now my go too for a successful night out. My favourite drink is the shiso g&t. The atmosphere is always nice & the djs are amazing!View more
Très bon endroit pour aller danser, musique sur vinyle, on adore! Funk, house, hiphop, il y a de tout dans la prog des djView more
The food was nothing short of extraordinary from start to finish! We opted for the Chef's Choice menu, & every dish was a delightful surprise that just kept surpassing our expectations. Our server, Pablo, was an absolute gem-hilarious, friendly, & attentive. He answered all our questions & made us feel completely at home. We were celebrating a friend's birthday, & the thoughtful extra touches truly made the evening special. The music & DJ perfectly set the vibe for an unforgettable night. Highly recommend!View more
My husband & I were visiting Montreal for a few days & intended to go to Fleurs & Cadeaux for dinner, but we got sent to Sans Soleil when we arrived. Boy are we glad we ended up there! The vibe at Sans Soleil was so cozy & fun, perfect for a rainy Sunday evening, & we loved the DJ. The cocktails were creative & tasty, & the food was incredible. We ate every last bite. Andie, our server, was amazing too! We left feeling like we lucked out having this great dinner experience in such a fun spot we never would've found on our own.View more
Wow, it's been a while I wanted to go to this restaurant & I was really pleased to finally go. The food is awesome, the waitress suggested some great wines & DJ is good. Would definitely go back, a hidden gem. ThanksView more
Booked the Sans Soleil bar for a 6:30 dinner to be able to enjoy the DJ that begins playing at 8pm. To clarify, their food menu is from Fleurs & cadeaux which was absolutely phenomenal - their sashimi selection is to die for as it is so fresh. They have this delicious 2yr aged soya sauce which is also provided for the sashimi. We also ordered the uni chips & dip, the marinated veggies & the peanut sauce udon. The service was generally pretty great but it took over 45 minutes for our last dish (we think the kitchen forgot our final dish which is why service was so slow in the end). All in all, would love to return again for this delightful supper club located below the eclectic pink restaurant! They also had a fun vending machine filled with beers & sakes which is meant to mimic all the fun vending machines japan is known for!View more
Le service est excellent à chaque fois que je viens. La Cuisine est parfaite! Hier les djs étaient de haute voltige. Best place in town.View more
Amazing food, great vibe (DJs on point) & the best service!View more
We went for our anniversary expecting good drinks & music, but food & service were also exceptional! DJ was very attentive with the music level (besides the selection of good old jazz:)). Thanks for this amazing experience:)View more
I had a great night at Sans Soleil. I recently read a review complaining about waiting a long time in the rain to get in. We shared a similar experience to that. They could definitely find a solution to covering the waiting area with an awning or an overhang. It was super nice that the bar is free to get in to, which is getting more rare in Montreal. the atmosphere was great, people were dancing & smiling. The DJ was great, he started off with some funk & transitioned into some groovy house, with some nice vinyl scratching. The sound system was very impressive, it was a Klipsch system that I would love to know more about. It sounded amazing, with one complaint of the horns being right at ear level, causing a lot treble being heard & a lack of bass. A simple change of eq or a new subwoofer would solve the problem. The bar was ok, the service was nothing special but the drinks were great. It was very messy though, lots of spilled drinks & dirty glasses everywhere. Overall I had a great night, & with a couple of small fixes, I think Sans Soleil could be at the top of vinyl clubs in Montreal.View more
I took a trip from Toronto to mtl for a weekend in sept of 2023 & I was recommended to come here by a local & they did not disappoint. Great atmosphere, amazing music, vinyl record DJs !!! If you're not a fan of the jumpy sweaty loud clubs, this is the perfect spot!! The music was certainly the centre of attention. Unfortunately I wasn't able to try the food but the cocktails were great & priced very fair !! my friends & I had a great time & will definitely be coming back. Thank you to all the staff for a great experience!!View more
Greaaat sound system, compact & bassy, good DJs too, funky house. Drinks were really good, will definitely come backView more
Food was perfectly executed. Special shout out to Chef Aaron for proposing a thoughtful sequence of dishes. Service was also particularly friendly. Not sure I'm spelling their name correctly, but Elyes was truly the best, from the moment we arrived until we left. Vibes were also on point. Book those two DJs often ;) 11/10!View more
I haven't been to a club in a long time & I loved the music & vibes this much. I had a great time price wasn't crazy as far as drinks go it was on par. DJ was great & no flash photography!View more
July 2023: Duck & Bavette dishes were full flavoured. Hokkaido was a bit too sweet for me but well presented. The himagure was nice. Shiso G&T was good but needed to be mixed. Cute decor. Friendly staff. DJ was pretty hit or miss unfortunately.View more
Que dire de ce merveilleux endroit, Je commence par dire que même lorsqu'il faut attendre plus de 30 minutes en ligne pour y être accueilli l'expérience sur la piste de danse en vaut la cadence...! L'équipe de service est professionnelle & attentive & L'espace nous rapproche & amène de la magie là où il n'y en a pas. les nouveaux lavabos dans les trois salles de bain sont une révolution. Les Djs ne cessent de m'impressionner & de m'enflammer, pendant que les bouteilles de CAVA dégouline en moi....ainsi que la chartreuse pour raviver les flammes Bar à la fois caché & connu de tant de personne INSPIRANTE. Je m'y sens en sécurité & parfois même la musique réveille en moi un plaisir transcendant, à peine descendu les escaliers j'ai des fourmi dans les pieds.... Merci de nous accueillir aussi souvent que vous le pouvez. Recommande ViVeMeNt Le SaNssOlEiL sans aucun souci, Si certains dirais que ça vaut le détour, le retour au lieu en est toujours plus alléchant! J'oubliais pour ceux & celles qui cherche à prendre siège les fauteuils sont confortablissime. Les bonnes recettes ne change donc jamais*****aucun bémol à mon égardView more
I would give 6 stars if I could! This is a small hidden bar in the basement of the Fleurs & Cadeaux restaurant. They share the same extraordinary food menu. The pasta & the duck were just so delicious, I've never had anything like that. Every bite was just so amazing. The staff is super sweet & the service is really good. They have a great list of wines & super nice cocktails, as well as a few drafts. They have live DJ which starts a bit later, & at some point they remove the table to allow people to dance. It's an experience that truly worth it.View more
Não há placa do bar. Você entra na porta central da loja Fleur & Cadeaux (n. 1002), passa pelo meio de um restaurante, desce as escadas em direção aos toaletes, e a entrada do bar está no subsolo. Reservas são recomendadas, pois o espaço é pequeno e movimentado. Muitas
opções de vinhos, saquês. Bom cardápio de comida japonesa. Bom atendimento. Provamos o drink Kohi, à base de café. Gostamos também das sobremesas: castella cake e creme caramel matcha. O sistema de som é excelente, assim como a seleção musical e a escolha dos DJs que tocam por lá.View more
Génial! Bar ambiance un peu caché, cocktail au top, & rien à dire sur le choix des djView more
Incredible live DJ, awesome Sashimi with a speakeasy vibe. Highly recommend .View more
Cute speakeasy tucked under a restaurant. This building has been in Chinatown ever since I could remember & the previous business owner (maybe building owner? I think Mr Wong) of the gift shop still lives upstairs!
The sound quality was incredible, I think 4 speakers around the room, they had a decibel reader for the DJs to look at throughout the night. We got there around 8pm to eat & chat & grab a drink & even thought it was full, you could easily hear yourself & it wasn't loud. There is good sound absorption & I'm quite sensitive to sound & was happy. The DJs actually spin on vinyl as well it was a whole vibe.
We got some food which was good to great. Attention to the toppings was 👌
Maiden tartare: good, wish there was more fish
marinated veggie: little palette cleanser
Crispy soft tofu: real tasty & satisfying, so good (though wasn't crispy at all even at the non soaked in sauce part)
cold ramen: my least favorite of the bunch, too salty & lemon forward, was okay, meat in it was good
Service was friendly but could have been more attentive. We had to always ask for more water, it wasn't refilled otherwise. A chopstick fell & one of us couldn't eat & asked for a new one the waitress forgot & we had to ask again after a while had passed.
Then after 10pm the chairs & tables get taken away & it becomes more dancy, the music wildly ranges tho depending on what the DJ wants to play. The music wasn't one I'd dance to yesterday but I enjoyed listening to it. We stayed in the back room to sit & chat while the main room got packed.
Would go back. Great for a small group or date!

Great space with excellent sound. Server & bartender were super friendly & knowledgeable. Early in the night we had great service. Later in the evening, as DJ set started, we felt a bit ignored. We tried to order our dinner & learned the kitchen had closed & no one mentioned it. Overall a good night out though, we just had to drink our dinner instead of eating.
One of my fave restaurants in Montreal. The food is incredibly good & fresh, the set up , decor & ambiance is super cool, without trying too hard, the downstairs bar is tasteful, mature & the DJs that play are lowkey & good nothing pretentious. The noodles & bowl of rice with sashimi on top are to die for. My boyfriend & I brought friends there last night & we're already trying to rsvp for this Friday with another set of friends to get them to share our resto "discovery ".
Merci, sans soleil! Excellent food, great team, welcoming, vinyl & DJ set the stage for a great evening.
Thank you for an amazing time! My date & I loved every dish we ordered, the cocktails were exquisite, & the live DJ made for a very upbeat (yet relaxing) atmosphere. Additionally, the service was above & beyond. We will definitely be back again soon!
