The following is a capsule review of the Montreal restaurant Damas. To read the 2025 Montreal Restaurant Guide, please click here. Fuad Alnirabie’s Outremont institution is a love letter to Syrian cuisine and one of the most elegant and elaborate dining experiences in town. While you can easily opt for a tour of classic kebabs and mezze, the best way to experience Damas is by the sensationally delicious 10-course tasting menu.

The following is a capsule review of the Montreal restaurant Tacos Don Rigo. To read the 2025 Montreal Restaurant Guide, please click here. Don’t be fooled by the kitschy bandito-style Western decor, Pierrefonds’s Tacos Don Rigo is dishing out some of the best Mexican food anywhere on the island. The tacos are perfectly uncomplicated, the burritos are hefty and rich, but the quesabirria (a fried taco filled with shredded stewed beef) is what draws the crowds.

The following is a capsule review of the Montreal restaurant Dorsia. To read the 2025 Montreal Restaurant Guide, please click here. WITH Hospitality’s most lavish project to date, Dorsia is a fine-dining destination that delivers on its ambitions.
