We came on a Thursday at 6pm so it was pretty quiet. We had a really great experience. I read a lot of mixed reviews & wasn't sure what to expect. Yes it's expensive yes the portions are fairly small. But the food was very very good, the people were really nice & not pretentious what so ever (easy to come across in the high end restaurants). The ambiance was nice. Wine was good! I didn't do the full pairing more just did 1/2 glasses as it made sense. I would come back & certainly recommend to others

What an amazing meal. The plates were so light & fresh. My wife had an amazing vegan friendly meal. The dessert she had with a coconut yogurt & berries was memorable & Something I've been tasked to remake. Im in Spain several times a year & I can say whomever is funding their wines is really doing an amazing job go find the best. Our server was such a charming young lady. I can totally understand why this restaurant has so quickly became a top 30 location in Canada. Sorry I didn't take any photos. I'll be back for sure!

Spent 700$ for 2 people on full menu (9 courses plus wine pairings). Left drunk & hungry. Portions so tiny, my stomach was just sloshing with alcohol.
Was the food tasty? Sure. Would I come back to Alma? No. If I'm spending that much money to walk away hungry, there are much better options in Montreal to spend 700$ for 2 people.

We had the carte blanche with the wine pairing. Beautiful plating & well executed textures but many dishes lacked depth of flavour & spice. The tacos de setas & their signature seabream crudo were the standout dishes.
The selection of Catalan wines was interesting, though several pairings didn't quite complement the dishes as well as expected.

The experience was one of a kind, unique. The staff were very knowledgeable & answered questions. Their ability to pair wines with the food was fantastic. A wonderful experience, 10/10 would recommend.

Sat at the chefs counter so we could engage with Chef Juan & his incredible wife, Lindsay, who is an incredible sommelier & importer of many of their wines. Went for the 9 course carte blanche pairing menu.

We've had two wonderful visits to Alma in the last four months - first the 9 course menu with wine pairing & then the 5 course menu - the molés are out of this world - complex & memorable.

What a delight it was to eat at Alma! It is rare to have a chef's menu where every dish is solid, but I felt this was the case at Alma. From appetizer to both the desserts, I thoroughly enjoyed this flavour profile mixing acidity, fat & spiciness, something you won't get in French or Italian fine dining. The seafood was delicious & as well as the beef tongue! It was great to be exposed to different types of corn tortillas as well! It would however be great to have a bit more options of drinks for people who cannot drink alcohol. Although I enjoyed my lime-onade, I have to admit I was a bit envious watching my husband enjoy his wine pairing! That being said, we will definitely be back! A true gem in Montreal!

After waiting over 4 weeks to find a table & time to dine, & after seeing all the social media videos I was really excited to try this place, & it was sooooo disappointing. There were many factors that made the experience less than memorable but the worst was by far the horrible wine selection. Not worth the hype, there are so many great restos in Mtl to blow $300 for dinner for 2

I would give them 10 stars if I could. This is my favourite restaurant in Montreal. Chef Juan's creativity & skills is unmatched while wine aficionado Lindsay is providing customers with the best wine selection in the city. The way they make feel regulars like old friends & the restaurant's homie & cozy atmosphere is some of the reasons why I always recommend it & will always go back. PS: you should also try their other restaurant (right next door), Tinc Set. They have amazing tapas with amazing wine & the same extraordinaire duo.

We initially reserved the 5 course meal menu but ended up adding a few items to complete the 9 course meal. The place is very charming & low key. Service was very attentive & knowledgeable. The food was exceptional. The organic, Spanish wine pairing was not my favorite... the majority were white or rose & tasted very much alike (& not in a good way).

Great spot, food is excellent, we don't drink wine so I can't comment on it, but our friends all seem impressed with the wine list. Very tasty, be ready to spend quite a bit if you want to leave with your belly totally full.

My experience at this restaurant was unforgettable. Every time a plate is brought to your table, it is explained what it is & the ingredients. I would suggest to mention whether a plate is spicy or not. The portions were perfect, we were very satisfied. The perfect sensation after eating good food. I find it a place to celebrate special occasions. Alma is expensive & it was worth it to me. Check the prices before if you do not want to be surprised as some people said in the comments. Great wine & food comes with a price. Finally, the waitress are very professional, knowledgeable in customer service & kind. I would definitely recommend it & come back for future celebrations.
