Sans Soleil Bar opère comme un établissement spécialisé dans la mixologie de précision et le design esthétique minimaliste. Le programme de boissons met l'accent sur des profils aromatiques complexes élaborés à partir de sirops maison, de teintures et d'infusions clarifiées qui bousculent les attentes traditionnelles en matière de cocktails. Les intérieurs industriels à l'éclairage tamisé créent une atmosphère centrée sur la dégustation et l'interaction sociale ciblée au sein d'un espace fermé et raffiné. La clientèle découvre une sélection renouvelée de créations emblématiques utilisant des spiritueux rares et des éléments botaniques saisonniers pour maintenir une narration sensorielle distincte. Le personnel de bar exécute les techniques classiques avec une précision technologique moderne pour assurer la constance de chaque service. Cet établissement privilégie une approche sophistiquée en éliminant les éléments superflus pour mettre en valeur l'essence même de chaque ingrédient intégré.
Sans Soleil est largement reconnu comme un joyau intime en sous-sol à Montréal, mariant parfaitement une expérience culinaire raffinée à une atmosphère de club dynamique. Les clients louent constamment la programmation musicale exclusivement sur vinyles, le système de son de haute qualité et le décor chaleureux de type speakeasy qui en font une destination de choix pour les rendez-vous amoureux comme pour danser jusqu'au bout de la nuit. Bien que les petites assiettes d'inspiration japonaise et les cocktails savamment préparés soient régulièrement qualifiés de délicieux et riches en saveurs, la popularité de l'endroit entraîne souvent de longues files d'attente et un espace très restreint. Le service est globalement salué comme attentionné, professionnel et accueillant, bien que certains visiteurs aient noté des défis logistiques occasionnels ou des délais d'attente lors des heures de pointe.
The food & service at Sans Soleil were both fantastic! Standout dishes were the tuna sashimi, udon noodles, duck breast & fried chicken. Service was attentive & friendly, cocktails were delicious & sake menu is extensive.
Great food, all the dishes were interesting & flavourful. Great drinks & sake as well, but service was a bit slow with what seems like just one person. I loved the atmosphere & DJ. Really great spot for dinner.
Sans Soleil has been on my to-visit list for a good while. I was pleased that I took the time to drop by - an absolute gem of a spot! Despite being located in a basement, the atmosphere is warm, welcoming, & you can't help but feel transported to a different decade. They play records all the time, & although I didn't experience it, the space transforms into a vibrant dance club at night. The drinks were great (especially if you are into Saké or Japanese Whiskeys), & the service was fantastic… next time I'll have to give the food a try :) Highly recommend this spot if you are looking to enjoy some nice music in an intimate setting.

Excellente soirée d'anniversaire ! On y était un lundi & l'ambiance était au rendez-vous. Le menu à partager était copieux & diversifié, tout le monde a adoré ! Supers conseils de Andi pour les sakés & les plats à partager. Soirée mémorable & musique impeccable (tant pour le choix de chanson que pour le volume)! :-)
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.
A space for all the senses, sounds of the underground & supreme service. Sans Soleil has everything under the sun for true music lovers, artists, the heads, the curious, locals & visitors alike. Had a beautiful Saturday night sojourn here that began with an amazing meal. We had the Onsen Tamago (perfect egg in a truffle infused broth), Legume Ohitashi (vegetable of the day was eggplant), Albacore tuna tataki & the delicious fried chicken dish. The Yune cocktail was a yuzu-infused take on the negroni -divine! - & Sake Paloma was bright & refreshing. Service was excellent - super big shout out to Andie for their amazing hospitality, kindness & menu suggestions (the team here knows a lot!), & Alex at the bar for awesome libations. We tried the special soy ice cream dessert -umami, sweet, savoury goodness! Not enough photos, was too immersed in the experience. Stick around for dancing & top shelf tunes curated & spun by guest & resident selectors. As a DJ myself, I'd be a regular here if I lived in Montreal.
We were seated at the bar & had the wonderful company of the bartender. He was knowledgeable & had great recommendations for the saké. Very welcoming without being nosy. The food was excellent, we had the agedashi tofu & chirashi sushi. An authentic & elevated rendition of japanese cuisine. Great overall experience
Upstairs: Stylish & upscale Japanese cuisine with high-quality ingredients & some great flavours. That said, the prices are very steep - both food & drinks are expensive. There's a wide selection of sake & wine, but oddly only one beer option, priced at $18 for a 330ml bottle. Portions are quite small, & service was incredibly slow; it took nearly two hours for three small dishes. Service was typical for Montreal - not much warmth or enthusiasm. The host at the door (tall guy) seemed annoyed to see customers arriving & barely acknowledged us. On the plus side, once we voiced our concerns about the delay, our server was very understanding, expedited the next dish, & offered a discount, which was appreciated.
Downstairs: Much better vibes. Intimate atmosphere with a great sound system & all-vinyl sets every night. The drink menu was more varied, including a few reasonably priced Boreal beer options. A good spot for drinks & music.
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.
