Rank 97. Place Carmin
Brasserie French
A blood pudding Tatin is either a very confident move or a very Montréal one, and at Place Carmin it reads as both. This French brasserie in a converted industrial space runs high ceilings, skylights, and spherical fixtures overhead while the open kitchen does the real decorating. Duck à l'orange and foie gras terrine anchor the menu, and weekends bring a brunch and a Sunday roast that the neighborhood has clearly been waiting for.

Rank 97. Restaurant de l'ITHQ
Regional French
The crêpes Suzette arrive in flames, which sets the tone for a fine-dining room that runs on hospitality-school energy. Student cooks and floor staff work the room under instructor supervision, so your dinner is technically someone's final exam. The menu follows classical French technique with Quebec sourcing, Gaspé fish and Lanaudière bison moving through dishes that shift with the seasons. Square Saint-Louis sits just outside the window.

A curtain rises to dramatic music before the meal even begins, which tells you everything about the register of this omakase counter. Twenty-plus courses move from chawanmushi through nigiri made with fish you may not recognize alongside cuts you absolutely will, including otoro and Hokkaido uni. The pacing is relentless in a good way, and the theatrics are sincere rather than silly, which is a harder trick than it sounds.

Rank 107. Bernie Beigne
Doughnut Shop
The awards
-
A neighborhood bistro on Victoria Avenue where the menu leans hard into comfort, the kind of place that makes halloumi and a burger feel like they belong on the same page as steak frites. The chef here seems genuinely unbothered by trends, which in Westmount reads as a quiet act of confidence. Regulars fill the room early and often, and the mousse de foie, when it shows up, tends to overshadow everything around it.

A drive-in fast food joint housed inside a giant orange the size of a small building, which is either architecture or a very committed fruit stand. The menu runs on hot dogs, fries, and the house orange drink, whose recipe stays locked away like state secrets. Prices are pocket change, no dress code applies, and the line moves fast, partly because everyone already knows what they want.

Rank 107. Kwizinn
Haitian
Haitian poutine made with plantains and lobster tells you most of what you need to know about Kwizinn. It's a bright, casual Haitian restaurant in Verdun, the neighborhood southwest of downtown that's quietly become one of the more interesting places to eat in the city. Slow-cooked meats, spicy sauces, and recipes passed down through the chef's family form the backbone of the menu. Save room for the house-made donuts with mascarpone banana cream.

Rank 107. Piklìz
Haitian
Named for the fiery Haitian pickled condiment that shows up on every table back home, this warm Caribbean restaurant in Saint-Henri covers the walls with island paintings and small-framed photographs that feel more like a family archive than décor. The brothers behind it grew up between Montreal and Haiti, and the menu moves between the two places accordingly: Québécois poutine gets a creole riff, and the slow-braised goat practically dissolves on the fork.

Rank 107. Régine Café
French
Weekend brunch in Rosemont, far from the Plateau's self-consciousness, where the line forms early and nobody seems to mind. Régine is a lively neighborhood café doing French-inflected brunch, meaning croissants and pastries alongside things like corn waffles with confit duck or salmon croquettes with poached egg and green pea purée. The menu covers carnivores and vegans without making a fuss about it, which is rarer than it sounds.
