According to one embodiment, a magnetoresistive memory device includes: a first ferromagnetic layer; a stoichiometric first layer; a first insulator between the first ferromagnetic layer and the first layer; a second ferromagnetic layer between the first insulator and the first layer; and a non-stoichiometric second layer between the second ferromagnetic layer and the first layer. The second layer is in contact with the second ferromagnetic layer and the first layer.
