Review Summary

Tinc Set Montréal draws praise for a knowledgeable and approachable sommelier and for delivering food, ambiance and service that many describe as outstanding, with the octopus singled out as possibly the best in Montreal. The staff speak several languages, which enhances the dining experience, and the menu features crowd favorites like anchovy toast, tuna tostada, patatas bravas, a half roasted chicken, and a churro, though the chicken can be a touch dry and the churro arrived slowly on a busy night.
