Montreal just got its first Michelin stars, here’s who made the cut

After years of rumours, whispers, and existential culinary angst, Michelin has finally made its way to Quebec—and yes, Montreal got stars. Three of them, in fact.

The first-ever Michelin Guide to Quebec just dropped, naming 102 restaurants across the province, including one two-star spot, eight with one star, three with Green Stars for sustainability, and a solid 17 Bib Gourmands.

But let’s talk about Montreal.

Jérôme Ferrer's Europea landed a star for its ultra-polished, French-meets-terroir fine dining—think Magdalen Islands lobster, Appalachian red deer, consommés that whisper of sugar shacks past.

Mastard, tucked off the radar in Rosemont, earned its place with technically precise dishes built on local produce (scallop with salsify purée, crab emulsion, and parsley sauce).
