Rank 1. Alma
Modern Mexican
The kitchen grinds fresh masa from heirloom Mexican corn every day, which tells you something about the priorities here. Alma is a tasting-menu restaurant in Outremont where the chef threads his Tlaxcalan roots through Quebec seasonal produce, and the sommelier answers with a Catalan-leaning wine list. The result is modern Mexican cooking that doesn't ask for your permission to be unexpected. Canada's 100 Best ranks it 34th in the country.

Rank 2. Damas
Syrian Middle Eastern
The charcoal grill in the open kitchen sets the tempo at this Syrian and pan-Ottoman restaurant in Outremont, where the bread comes straight from the fire and the lamb arrives in several forms. The team steers first-timers and regulars through the menu with equal care, and the room has the kind of noise level that means everyone is having a good time, whether they planned to or not.
