Review Summary

Sora 45 offers a memorable experience with a breathtaking panoramic view of Montreal from the top floor, especially at sunset, paired with a chic ambiance and attentive service. The cocktail program earns high marks for creativity and quality, while the food is tasty but portions can be small and prices can feel a bit steep. The atmosphere ranges from cozy and refined to lively, and seating can be limited or crowded, with some noise that can make work or conversations challenging. Overall, the venue is highlighted as a must see for the view and for drinks, with a welcoming staff and an ambiance that works for dates as well as casual outings.

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!

Ceci savere etre une critique positive, j'avais de grandes attentes envers cet endroit, puisque le tout semblait superbe sur les réseaux sociaux Nous arrivons là-bas & sommes placés dans une allée un peu perdu . On attend au moins 10 minutes pour avoir un simple verre d'eau, le serveur ne semble pas parler français, mais cela nous importe peu 15 autres minutes secoulennt avant qu'ils viennent nous demander ce que nous allons boire . Cela aurait pris un autre 20 minutes avant de recevoir nos cocktails lorsqu'il nous a apporté nos breuvages. Nous nous sommes dit qu'il nous ouvrirait & avons immédiatement demandé la facture qui a tardé encore un autre 10 minutes . Le tout aura pris plus d'une heure pour un simple cocktail, nous voulions faire la fête & boire & aurions pu dépenser beaucoup plus d'argent, les cocktails étaient absolument délicieux & la vue spectaculaire Mais nous nous sommes découragés & sommes devenus très impatients. Pour cette raison, on ne pense pas y retourner .

A great restaurant located at Place Ville Marie, with amazing views! The food was okay, not the greatest food, & the cocktails were made good, recommended by a passionate bartender.

Unexpected Delights Await! Initially pegged as a cozy cocktail spot, this venue pleasantly surprised us with its diverse offerings. While the cocktails did impress with their creativity, it was the delightful discovery of top-notch sushi that stole the show. Fresh fish, artfully presented on vibrant plates, made for an Instagram-worthy experience against the backdrop of stunning views. Needless to say, our cameras were busy! & let's not forget the stellar service, adding an extra layer of warmth to our memorable evening.

A short, but by no means simple, menu of expertly created, prepared, & beautifully presented items, each of which was deliciously above our expectations. We started with wonderful cocktails as we watched the sun set from above the city. The view, the music, & the amicable service set the tone for a great evening. We ordered three-quarters of the very creative, exquisite maki, of which we most enjoyed the standouts: - Kampachi: ponzu, marinated cucumber, & a ginger & jalapeno cream. Incredible. - Pork chasu: 8-hour braised pork belly. So tender & savory. After this experience, a reasonable question to ask is: Would I return? Unfortunately, my answer is no. Why? Because I am not a paid influencer, I was not invited, & I spent almost half a week's salary (tax & tip included) on 23 pieces of sushi, five cubes of pork, & two cocktails. While the food, atmosphere, & service were all beyond excellent, I had to stop on my way home for more food because it was not even close to filling. I do not have a particularly big appetite either. I do not regret the experience, but if I'm being honest, it is not worth the average person's money in this economy, sadly.

La qualité des sushis est excellente. Le chef & sa brigade maîtrisent leur art. Chacun des plats commandés était extraordinaire. La fine tranche de jalapeno sur le nigiris de hamachi amène un tout petit peu de piquant, les nigiris de Toro sont fondants, ceux de saumon parfaitement torchés, le pork belly était savoureuse tout comme les boules de poulet. Les cocktails sont à la hauteur de ce que la cuisine produit. Les barmans connaissent leurs produits & sauront vous conseiller pour trouver quelque chose qui va s'accorder avec vos goûts. La vue & l'espace sont spectaculaires. C'est idéal pour un rendez-vous romantique ou une soirée avec des amis au sommet de Montréal.

love this place ! everything from the cocktails, the food, the atmosphere & obviously the amazing view. the entire staff is extremely friendly & it really adds to the experience. Carl is really knowledgeable & made us feel comfortable, engaging us in conversation, asking what we like & what we don't like & proposed some drinks based on our tastes. it would be easy for a place like this to be ruined by rude staff but that is absolutely not the case. best drinks & sushi in Montreal !

Last night was an absolute delight! The warm welcome from the hostesses set the perfect tone. Louis, our server, was incredibly attentive & took such great care of us during the entire night. Our welcome cocktail crafted by Carl was a masterpiece of heart & detail. The bar staff, including Marshall, Alexi, & Dolan, amazed us with their exceptional cocktails. & the pinnacle was Chef Gary & the kitchen staff spoiling us with top-quality sashimi platters, sushi, maki & meat. A huge thank you to everyone involved!
