Three delightfully decorated halls in the Empire style that dominated

Outremont

About the restaurant

(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.

I really can’t imagine a more exceptional dining experience. Room, service, music, and vibe all work in concert to provide a welcoming, comfortable experience. The food and service were exceptional. Plenty of information without seeming burdensome. Honestly one of the finest meals of my life. Opted for the 5 vs. 7 course tasting menu and could not regret more. Will absolutely return to this restaurant. For clarity sake, I reside in Alabama, US. Will return to Montreal, I in part, because I must dine here again. Food which spoke to me like a childhood memory. Made me dance like music. Amazing.
