Sans Soleil est un bar du Quartier Chinois situé au sous-sol du resto japonais Fleurs & Cadeaux. Nous offrons les classique du menu de Fleurs et Cadeaux, cocktails, vins et sakés, dans une ambiance musicale recherchée, sur vinyle seulement.
Dans l'ensemble, les avis convergent vers une expérience chaleureuse et festive dans un cadre intime où l'atmosphère vinyle et DJ crée une ambiance speakeasy propice à la danse après le dîner. La nourriture et les boissons sont régulièrement décrites comme délicieuses et soignées, avec des plats variés et des cocktails complexes, parfois inspirés du japonais et du saké. Le service est largement salué pour son accueil, son professionnalisme et sa connaissance du menu, même lorsque le lieu se remplit et que l'espace devient plus serré. Le lieu reste petit et peut devenir très fréquenté, avec des tables et des tabourets serrés et, parfois, des temps d'attente ou une organisation à améliorer, notamment entre les espaces haut et bas et la cohérence des menus. Malgré ces petits bémols, Sans Soleil est souvent cité comme l'un des meilleurs spots de Montréal pour manger, boire et danser, une adresse à revenir régulièrement pour l'ambiance, la musique et la qualité des plats.
The food, vibe, music & attention to detail was fantastic. Melt in your mouth sashimi, tasty duck, pork belly & udon. Ask for a sake pairing & try something earthy & fun. Great recommendations from our server on their sake. Mind blowing flavours. Great experience.
This basement bar presents a fun urban experience. No visible front, when you come to this place you'll recognize it from a door with a lineup at the side of a random lot. Gives it a somewhat underground feel to it, pun intended. There is no cover which is great. The place was visibly never fully renovated to be a bar, so it still has the layout of a commercial basement. It does offer some seating around the sides & the back room which is nice. It gets loud but you can still hold a conversation if you are trying to. The bartenders are skilled at their craft. Music here is a bit unconventional but very fun to dance to. Overall this place has a different but enjoyable vibe.

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!
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.
Amazing! Very nice staff & great service!
Super cool vibe, definitely check it out if you're only here a couple nights or make it your new date spot for a fun night!

La nourriture, le service, l'ambiance tout est absolument remarquable
Être invité au sous-sol de fleurs cadeaux, c'est une soirée dans une ambiance feutrée au décor des années 70, au sons des vinyles
Un énorme merci à Nora & Stéphanie des hôtesses qui ont transformé cette soirée en une vibe exceptionnelle
Excellent saké cocktails. We also appreciated the server explaining the different saké types & letting us try samples. The miso aged duck was sooo tasty. Chirashi bowl was good but a little pricey given the portions. Loved the music, the vibe, the cosy ambiance, & the fact that the music wasn't too loud & we could carry on a conversation without yelling over the volume. Thank you for a lovely night.
