November is here, and with it, a fresh wave of the best new restaurants in Montreal. Some of these restaurants are brand spankin' new, opening their doors with plenty of buzz, while others have been gaining momentum more quietly over the past few months (then there's notable moves like Nozy's new digs in Little Italy). What unites them is how they rise above the noise of social media and folks taking shortcuts to make a cheap greasy buck. (FYI, we're still waiting on word from the highly anticipated Grille-Nature from David McMillan and Derek Dammann if they're on track to open this month.)
If you’re hungry for more discoveries, check out the best new bars in Montreal or the best new cafés in Montreal). Give them a little time, and a few may well earn a place among the best restaurants in Montreal in no time.
