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.

AMAZING experience we started at the Terrace Rose Orange, nice wine list & appetizers, ambience was so exceptionally unique because of the view on the 44th floor of Place Ville Marie the sofas comfy & clean & the service was the best! We went to Sora 45 for Sushi & sake, really fresh & haute cuisine sushi & the selection of saké was great, again the service is very classy. They explain everything they bring you. What a great experience! I recommend!!

This is a pseudo-Japanese restaurant owned & run by some Canadians who might not have even been to Japan, in spite of its name & deco. I did not see a single Asian face on the staff. This probably should tell you how genuine their Japanese food is. The food came with nice decorations in small portions but did not taste Japanese, without even being accompanied by wasabi & soya sauce. When we requested these condiments, the waiter asked for 5$ for a ¼ pea-sized portion of wasabi & another $5 for some ginger. Funny. The restaurant should really be called a bar because most customers (10 or so) there were just having a drink. They were probably working in the building & had a happy hour after work. Only 3-4 tables of guests were dinner guests. 90% of the tables were empty all evening. Some rather loud music was playing; this was annoying, as we just wanted a quiet dinner & to have some conversation. Although, in theory, on the 45th floor above, we should have a nice view of Mont Royal & St. Laurent River, the view was spoiled by construction cranes nearby & by the ugly white roofs of the building next to 1 Place Ville-Marie. It is a total disappointment for us. Those positive reviews were probably written by the owner's friends, by companies doing it for a profit, or even by AI. In all fairness, the service was good, & the waiters were friendly.
