    Bottomless Pete Reviews: Lou'sPhotograph: Jeremy Dionne / @jeremydionn

    Restaurant criticism is in the pits right now in Montreal. There just isn't that much right now.

    That's why we here at The Main have enlisted an anonymous critic to start eating up what the city's latest openings have to offer, and go beyond leaving weird and/or half-baked opinions on Google Reviews or in the comments on Instagram.

    Say hello to Bottomless Pete Reviews.
