About

Palomar focuses on the pristine quality of seasonal fish and marine ingredients presented with technical precision. The menu emphasizes the raw purity of the catch complemented by artisanal charcuterie boards that highlight traditional curing techniques. Ingredients arrive daily from local purveyors to ensure a rotating selection dictated by harvest cycles and oceanic availability. The kitchen employs minimalist preparation methods designed to accentuate natural flavors without unnecessary embellishment. Patrons interact with a space defined by utilitarian design elements that mirror the honest approach to product sourcing and preparation. This establishment prioritizes the direct connection between market freshness and the final plate for those seeking a straightforward culinary experience centered on coastal provisions and cured meats. Every dish serves as a testament to the rigorous standards maintained throughout the sourcing and assembly process.

Visitor from Taiwan! After shopping around Jean Talon Market we were looking for something more filling & found Palomar on Google.

We ordered the oyster sampler, fries (of course), a salmon sandwich, & the charcuterie (thought it was interesting to try different fish).

Oyster, sandwich, & fries were great. Seems like lobster roll is the common choice but boyfriend says sandwich was a better choice 😋 Charcuterie was not as pleasant as I thought. Great nibble food but most of the fish is not fresh! It's actually all processed - like fish salami or jerky.

Saw the table next to us order the pot of mussels & was jealous.

Nevertheless, enjoyable dining experience. Very relaxed. Great service.
If the opportunity comes, I will go back for a glass of wine, fries, & those mussels!!

Have yet to dine at the restaurant, but my go to place for all fish & seafood. Coolest fishmonger in town with their dried & aged fish. Quality cannot be beat.

Superbe découverte au Palomar ! Le menu découverte était vraiment top du début à la fin. Mon trio gagnant : le gravlax de saumon (hyper fondant !), le tartare de thon plein de fraîcheur & l'espadon grillé, juste parfait. On sent que tout est fait avec soin & passion. J'y retournerai sans hésiter !
