The butter chicken pizza was good but it probably could have been better & would be cool if there was a vegan or vegetarian version of the dish as an option. The highlight was the crust : it reminded me of Tasty Foods pizza crust. I really liked sitting outside at night on the terrace. The people there are chill & waitresses & waiters are super nice. Will be back to try other things :)

I’ve tried many dishes at Bar Pamplemousse. Some are so tasty like the plantain burger & pizza some are good. The Jerk Chicken was nice but did not like much the ceviche. The combination was a bit weird & did not feel as if it is a fresh ceviche. The shrimps alone are delicious but not with that sauce & plantain. The chorizo pizza is really special on a thin crust. The burger is unusual & the combination is so yummy. You can find as well a variety of beers & wine. I have taste a few & none disappointed me. They were all super delicious with different taste & choice. It is a cute & romantic restaurant. It gets loud sometimes & too dark but the candles make it a cute ambiance. I will go back to just & take what I’ve been having. Probably for more drinks.
Cocktails were very good but pricey (>20$/piece depending on what you choose). I didn't try their food, but they have wood fired oven pizza ! We came early so there was not much ambiance but the decor was stylish & we liked it a lot. I would definitely go back at a later time & try their pizza ;).
Had the most wonderful experience at Bar Pamplemousse! We ordered the Saturn & let me tell you if you like your cocktails slightly sweeter you will love this one. The mixologist nailed it. The butter chicken pizza was hands down the best pizza I've had. I would give 11/10 if I could! Our server Adri was a gem of a person. Will definitely be back.
I cannot think of a better date night, lunch, or vibey restaurant. I hosted an incredible company party here & the team was incredible. Most affordable spot in MTL, & the owner was accommodating to our every need. The pizza was to die for. I can’t wait to come back.
