There was once a beautiful restaurant on the ninth floor of the former Eaton's department store. It closed 25 years ago, but many in Montreal still talk about it. Soon, Le 9ieme will open to diners once again.
The mysterious top floor of Montreal's Eaton Centre has been silent for almost a quarter century. But the well-preserved space that once housed a magnificent Art Deco restaurant will soon spring back to life with the clink of glasses and murmur of diners. Original art, furniture, and even dining utensils have been restored, retaining the venue's original glamour, now polished up and ready for the Instagram era.
Unveiled in 1931 then shuttered in 1999, the ninth floor of the Eaton Centre was a destination where people of all walks of life would dress to the nines to dine. It was hidden away for 25 years and is being revived as a restaurant, bar and event space next month.
