(Canada's Top 100)Located off the beaten path in the heart of Outremont, Alma is an intimate 24-seat restaurant showcasing modern Mexican cuisine with authentic techniques and flavours combined with local Quebec ingredients. It is operated by the couple, Chef Juan Lopez Luna et sommelier and wine importer Lindsay Brennan. Alma offers a tasting menu experience (5 or 9 courses) inspired by the concept of "mar y montana", largely influenced by Chef Juan's childhood memories of central Mexico as well as the couple's time spent on the coastal region of Oaxaca. Lopez is one of the few chefs in Canada working with heritage corn from Mexico, making fresh masa in-house each morning and tortillas by hand with his grandmother's traditional tortilla press. The wine list specializes in sunshine-filled Catalan wines from a unique group of winemaker-friends from the Barcelona region. Alma is the Canadian destination for Catalan wines, with a deep cellar of back vintages and rare cuvées.

For 2024 the service is impeccable, but a little pretentious. A client should feel comfortable, not in stage before your staff, needing to uphold the standards of the aristocracy. In other words, I expect perfection, but you shall not expect perfection from me. Such is life. And more directly - have each server, no matter what level, make eye contact and say “Merci” at least once. Otherwise, the best Montreal dining experience thus far. R

Extraordinary staff. Very helpful helping me getting seated - I was with my mom with limited mobility. I can’t remember ever being so well taken care of by a restaurant. Helping us choose the wine, food… a real pleasure. Food was fantastic as well. We were not rushed at all.
