Le Mousso

The Best Québécois Restaurants in Montreal | Eater Montreal

"Another spot where local, seasonal fare takes centre stage, Le Mousso’s nightly tasting menu is one of the most exclusive in the city; it’s the only menu the restaurant offers and is available for one sitting per evening for a maximum of 30 guests. Those lucky 30 guests can expect the best local meat, fish, seafood and vegetables, all artfully prepared and combined." - Eater Staff

"Finding the right formula for delivering the best of Le Mousso in a takeout box has been very challenging, says chef-owner Antonin Mousseau-Rivard, but he thinks he’s getting closer to the answer all the time. Customers want that ultra-creative New Nordic–inspired Le Mousso style, but “without having to wash a TONS of pots and pans.”"

Rank: #49 "Le Petit Mousso has some of the most colourful, creative dishes in the city—offered à la carte versus in a tasting menu. Launched in fall 2018, it won instant acclaim under Chef Benjamin Mauroy-Langlais, which continued under successor Vincent Baronnat."

Rank: #16 "The founding idea of his small restaurant on the edge of the east-end neighbourhood The Village was to present a Québécois take on neo-Nordic cooking. And under Mousso-Rivard’s guidance, his young Executive Chef, Massimo Piedimonte, prepares original and assertively flavourful dishes that honour Canadian products."
