Sora 45 is a special place.
The talented people who run it bring to life an intimate, welcoming atmosphere with exceptional service. It was easy to be enthralled by their infectious enthusiasm for their craft, especially since everyone was so generous in sharing their perspectives & recommendations during our time there.
The drinks themselves were incredible - beautifully presented & delicious - several of my new favorite cocktails came from behind the bar. The Honeydew & their version of the New York Sour were among the standouts.
Visiting Sora, you'll undoubtedly leave with a greater appreciation for excellent cocktails & what the best of Montreal has to offer.
I can't wait to come back!View more

An absolute gem & a must-visit in Montreal!
Sora 45 was recommended to us by a bartender from one of North America's top cocktail bars-her personal favorite spot in the city. That alone speaks volumes about just how special this place is.
From the moment you walk in, you're met with an incredible team that's as welcoming as they are passionate. The drinks? Somehow even better.
If you're looking for an unforgettable cocktail experience in Montreal, Sora 45 is it. Calling it now that this will be in the top 50 cocktail bars in North America before you know it.View more

I would really say come here only for the vibes & drinks. Although the food they serve are very good, they won't fill you up, so this is definitely more of a bar & finger food type of place. Kinda forgot to take a picture of the ribs we got because it took us a drink & a half for us to get them. It wasn't as expected, it was mostly bone with some meat. Overall, really nice place. Just don't come expecting the food to fill you up with the drinksView more

Attentive service, not much of a food menu though. Enjoyed the rolls, though the brioche was a bit too bready. Enjoyed my Honeydew & Bonsai Punch. Great view of the city.View more

Group of 4 out for dinner. The good: - Drinks were well made - Food in general was tasty - Fish is very fresh - Calm environment with nice city views - Waiter was attentive The bad: - Layout is a bit awkward - Our table was next to the bathrooms. There was a lineup at one point & we had ppl standing right next to our table while the rest of the restaurant was virtually empty. - Speaking of the bathroom, it was filthy. - Maki rolls were not well made. Kept falling apart when picking them up. - Wasabi was a $5 extra per order. This is insane. They're serving sashimi & you have to pay for the wasabi?! It wasn't even a generous portion either, maybe half a teaspoon. It's crazy to charge for this most basic thing for sashimi. - Ponzu sauce for the sushi? Seriously? Even then we had to ask for more because they only brought one small dish with maybe one teaspoon of it for all four of us. - They need to talk to their wait staff about wearing cologne/perfume. Waiter wore way too much & you could virtually taste it in the air when he was around. - Menu is very short & limited. We ordered maybe 70% of the menu. Would we come back? More than likely not. Just the fact that they are charging for the wasabi on a sashimi platter shows they have no understanding of Japanese cuisine & the role wasabi plays in it. They need to re-evaluate a few things.View more

We had the the best experience! We work in the building & have tried all the 5-7, but this is by far the best one. One of best espresso martinis in the city! & on top of all of this, out waitress Alia, such a cool chick! Amazing service & drinks. Will be back for sure!View more

J'ai été deux fois au SORA45. La première fois, c'était pour une soirée jeudi 5 @ 7. L'ambiance était vraiment cool : il y avait un DJ, & les cocktails n'étaient vraiment pas chers (martini espresso à 10$ on aime). En plus, on est arrivés vers 6h, donc on a pu profiter du coucher de soleil - c'était magnifique. La vue sur toute la ville est incroyable, & le décor aussi. Ils ont fait en sorte que tu puisses profiter de la vu peu importe ou tu t'assoies dans le restaurant. Après ça, je me suis dit que j'essaierais bien d'y aller pour manger. Donc on est retournés un vendredi soir, avec mes amis. Les prix étaient beaucoup plus élevées. Mon amie a pris le cocktail tangerine, apparemment le meilleur cocktail qu'elle avait bu de sa vie ! Niveau carte des vins, très complete, beaucoup de choix mais très peu de choix en dessous de 100$. Pour le repas, on a commandé pas mal de trucs. On a bien mangé, on était quand même rassasiés. La qualité est la, les produits sont frais, mais est-ce que c'était les meilleurs sushis de ma vie ? Non. Donc, la bouffe est bonne oui mais faut être prêt à payer pour l'expérience & le cadre. Louis, Carl, & Andrew ont été des hôtes incroyables & ça a vraiment élevé notre expérience. Merci pour la soirée!View more

Awesome restaurant. Ordered Nigiris (1 salmon, 1 tuna) & Makis (spicy salmon) + drinks- all delicious. Keep in mind: This isn't Hidden Fish (IYKYK).You go to Sora 45 for the drinks/view/vibe/location. Also, get real: you're paying for PVM rent but where else can you enjoy a beautiful sunset while having good drinks+sushis with THE best view of downtown MTL? So put on a nice suit/dress & enjoy your time with some friends. Overall: good & welcoming service.View more

Wonderful drinks! They make a Canadian version of Caipirinha (a typical Brazilian drink) & as a Brazilian I can say that it is delicious, although different from the original 😂 Incredible, impeccable service. Nice, calm atmosphere, pleasant music... I will definitely be back again...View more

Came three weeks ago & absolutely adored the food & views. Carl & André helped curate a great experience for my wife & I at the bar with their cocktails! Only downside was the sun kept shining in my eyes, but Carl gave me sunglasses & I was good to go!View more
