We had an apéro before going to the restaurant & after the end of dinner we ended up good in terms of appetite. I can imagine someone going with an empty stomach not having a good time regarding portions. Overused the olive oil in many dishes, lacking acidity on others, two steps were too salty & one dish didn't even have the black garlic mayo (described by the server, when I asked him where the black garlic mayo was located in the taco he pointed me out some fried crunchy pieces of garlic in oil) if you run out of an ingredient communication between kitchen & front of the house is basic so the server will give the proper excuses before & not making him look like a fool.
Some dishes were over seasoned (too salty). The portion is small as you are sharing a small plate for two people on the majority of the dishes.
Visiting Alma was one of my top dining experiences ever. A well curated tasting menu, wonderful drink pairings both alcoholic & non alcoholic. The service was incredible, attentive & knowledgeable staff served the dishes & explained each one. We sat at the counter & had a great view of the kitchen & food prep. A very small & intimate dining experience makes sure you get a reservation in advance. We'd been interested in eating here in a previous visit & couldn't get a reservation. However it is more than worth the wait & the hype!
Inviting little tapas-style restaurant on a quiet street in Outremont. We ordered the five-course menu plus one extra dish & dessert.
At first, I was surprised by the first one or two portions, which others have mentioned, is on the small size. But the meal ended up being nicely portioned & well paced. We had enough food - even without the extra. Plus the dishes were tasty, creative, & nicely presented.
The wine pairings & options are great & the server was the ideal host - knowledgeable, friendly, not pushy, nor intrusive. I did not pay the bill, so can't speak to cost or value, but it was a spectacular meal & we happily recommend & visit again.
*The flan was divine!
