Review Summary

Palomar stands out as a seafood focused spot with a live market vibe, where guests can choose fresh fish from the in-store counter to be grilled and enjoy a strong raw bar, and where the kitchen emphasizes freshness, quality and thoughtful preparations across dishes like tuna tartare, lobster rolls, grilled swordfish and cured seafood platters. The ambiance is repeatedly described as warm, convivial and lively, with a beautiful terrace overlooking the market and a comfortable interior that works for casual lunches or special dinners. Service is often praised for attentiveness and friendliness, though there are occasional criticisms about delays, pacing between courses, and some menu items that felt overpriced or modest in portions. Overall Palomar appears to be regarded as one of Montreal's best seafood destinations, delivering fresh, well executed seafood in a unique market setting with a welcoming team, inviting guests to return for the full experience.

La salade César est extraordinaire mais mon fish a d ship était humide mou & sans sauveur. De plus il y a une odeur de poisson constante qui n est pas très agréable.

Delicious & original food, at each step: from « poissons affinés « as you do with good cheese, i.e. the fish is not iced but rather kept in special fridges, to the preparation, for instance fish charcuterie, to the presentation (see the Cesar salad, with marinated anchovies). Everything was just perfect & the owner or manager, I don't know, was extremely knowledgeable, explaining the whole process. A wonderful experience, at very reasonable price. Highly recommended
