Reviews describe Sans Soleil Bar as a vibrant, intimate venue with a speakeasy mood and a vinyl led DJ vibe that transitions from dinner to a late night dance floor, drawing praise for the warm atmosphere and attentive service. The food earns frequent high marks for quality and flavor, with favorites like sashimi, duck magret, and other carefully prepared dishes; some diners note that portions can be small and seating is snug when the room is crowded. Drinks are highlighted for craft and variety, including well made cocktails and a notable focus on Japanese influences, though a limited downstairs drink menu at times is mentioned. The staff and overall hospitality are repeatedly praised for friendliness, knowledge, and responsiveness, contributing to a sense of welcome even during busy periods. Taken together, Sans Soleil Bar is seen as a standout Montreal spot for those seeking a unique combination of excellent food, strong drinks, and a music driven atmosphere, with many fans planning return visits despite occasional organizational hiccups on crowded nights.
Nous avons passé une magnifique soirée au Sans Soleil!
Nous étions un groupe de 8 & avions donc un menu fixe ainsi qu'une salle à nous. Tout était vraiment très bon. Le service du serveur était également soigné & bien timé.
Niveau prix, pour les mêmes portions ce serait peut-être plus avantageux de choisir les plats à la carte plutôt que le menu fixe.
L'ambiance est géniale, on recommande fortement!
L'ambiance pour le souper est parfaite pour une date night: lumière tamisée, atmosphère intime & tables rapprochées qui créent une belle proximité. Le staff est incroyable : super sympathique, connaît très bien le menu & est toujours prêt à répondre à nos questions ou même à aller chercher l'information au besoin.
La nourriture est excellente, j'en prendrais des portions plus grosses tellement c'est bon ! & les cocktails sont tout simplement délicieux.
Je recommande aussi de rester jusqu'à la partie danse, l'ambiance devient plus festive & ça complète parfaitement la soirée.
Une très belle découverte!

Had a fabulous time at Sans Soleil with my friend last night. We tried getting a reservation at Fleurs & Cadeaux but we are so glad things happened the way they did because Sans Soleil was a much better vibe. There was a dj playing vinyl records & it was almost a speakeasy vibe. The food is incredible!! We will be coming here again for a meal in the future. 10/10 recommend
One of the best meals I've ever had!! Andi, our server, was beyond delightful & was super helpful with recommendations for both food & drink. She has INCREDIBLE taste & we enjoyed everything she recommended.
Sans Soleil is by far one of the best dinner & dance spots in all of Montreal! I'll be coming back soon. Thank you Andi for everything!
Nous sommes venus en groupe, super belle soirée passée au Sans soleil. Le repas était délicieux, l'ambiance top. Il y a eu quelques petites erreurs dans le nombre de plats & nous n'avons pas eu le dessert qui était prévu. Peut-être quelques ajustements à faire côté organisation mais mise à part ça, je recommande!
The food was to die for. Highly highly recommend this place. I can't speak to the dancing just yet because we didn't realize it started at 10, but we will definitely be back to eat & check it out.
I had the beef (melt in your mouth) & the yozu sake & also tried the chicken naname (I think that's how it spelled) & the duck & all were delicious.
I had an amazing time at this restaurant! The food was truly delicious, the ambiance was perfect, & the DJ kept the energy flowing all night. The whole vibe turned into such a fun party. I genuinely enjoyed every moment. Highly recommend it if you're looking for great food & a great time!
What an incredibly unique spot to enjoy a very special experience! Loved it all!! Delicious & carefully crafted plates, gorgeous cocktails, superb service & groovy tunes. They share the same kitchen as the restaurant upstairs, but the small tables & cozy atmosphere downstairs cannot be beat. Highly recommend!
Amazing!
La nourriture était exceptionnelle, le service vraiment était parfait. Nous avons pris plusieurs plats différents sur le menu & nous avons adoré. C'était frais & goûteux.
Wow. Je recommande x1000

Best place we've been to in Montreal. Great bar & food then if you want, the venue turns into a club circa 11pm. 2nd visit & it's exactly what we were after for entertaining family post dinner. We went for 7.45 booking. Sat at the bar last time. Can't recommend enough.
Very cool speakeasy- attentive servers & food was extraordinary! Every single dish we ordered had such unique flavours & the quality of the sashimi was exceptional. Really enjoyed the vibe- the music in the background was very chill & the lighting was appropriately dim. Highly recommend!
We had the pleasure of dining here a few weekends ago & wanted to share our appreciation for the outstanding service provided by the team, especially in comparison to a prior visit where the service didn't quite meet expectations.
From the moment we arrived, Pablo stood out with his attentiveness & professionalism. Although we were initially seated on the main floor & expressed dissatisfaction with our table, Pablo went above & beyond to accommodate us-personally arranging for us to be seated downstairs, an area he was previously familiar with. His initiative & dedication made a lasting impression.
Throughout the evening, the coordination among the team-including Jemma, Megane, Grey, & Cam-was truly commendable. The seamless delivery of dishes & the way they collaborated to ensure a smooth & enjoyable dining experience did not go unnoticed.
Thanks to the excellent service & warm hospitality, Sans Soleil has become a spot we confidently recommend to others. Thank you for creating such a memorable experience.
Sans Soleil est bien plus qu'un restaurant : c'est une véritable expérience culinaire, sensorielle & visuelle combinée! Hier soir, entre amis, nous avons dégusté le menu découverte, & chaque plat était un voyage pour les papilles. L'ambiance décontractée & ultra-cool, accompagnée d'une excellente sélection musicale, a ajouté une dimension unique à notre soirée. Le staff est chaleureux, attentionné, & contribue à rendre l'expérience encore plus agréable. Je recommande fortement à tout amateur de bonne cuisine & de vibes relax & modernes. Une adresse incontournable à Montréal!

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!
Overall experience was great. We were 6 people & had the 70$ menu. Plenty of different dishes all of which were super tasteful. Service was super nice & on point. Highly recommend!!!
