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.

FOOD TOO GOOD TO HAVE TIME FOR PHOTOS!

Just came back from a delicious dinner.
We were 6, 4 adults & 2 kids. We, by pure chance, happened to come by on the'all you can eat mussels' night. Guess what, by the time we finished the appetizers, we were full :)
We had calamari, onion rings, deep-fried cod balls, oysters (plate of 12, 3 different kinds), french fries that came with delicious aioli sauce, shrimps in garlic sauce, fish & chips, & of course mussels.
The food was delicious, ambiance cool, & the team professional yet very friendly & helpful.
& yes, food was so good, no one had time for pictures.

First of all, I was misled by their'mimosa à volonté' ad, which stated it was only for an hour & a half. The servers were a bit rude because they seemed to be against us, as they wanted to serve us for just an hour. When I asked for a last mimosa 6 minutes before my time ended, they brought just orange juice. If they are going to be upset with clients drinking a lot of mimosas, they should offer'mimosa à volonté.'

Lunch after a pleasant stroll through the Marche Jean Talon. Great selection of oysters. The smoked fish charcuterie plate was a pleasure. Their version of a reuben sandwich was a pleasure. Good beer.

The short lobster roll, $39 only contains a hotdogs bread with fresh lobster meat. Although it tastes very fresh, it is not enough to fill you up. My husband let me eat two pieces, & I was so touched.
