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!!

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.

Absolutely loved my meal at Palomar! Simone & the team were warm & welcoming, & the service was spot-on. The raw bar is exceptional, fresh, beautifully presented, & bursting with flavor. The ambiance is cozy yet vibrant, making it a standout spot for seafood lovers. Highly recommend! Can't wait to return.

If you go for fresh fish & other sea food amazing selection & they prepare it really well just for me it was missing a little flavour plus I took the tuna burger I'm a big burger fan & was super disappointed being in a high end seafood restaurant the president choice burger at maxi taste better it needs a little work on it to elevate the flavour profile

Really fresh! I would definitely come again next time if I don't want to wait in line in Jean Talon. It's my first time seeing razer clams in the menu here, could give it a try but I have to honest they aren't cheap at all. I like it though. Friendly staff too.

Thank you, Palomar, for a lovely lunch. The food was fresh, bursting with flavour, & unique. The soupe du jour was a hit as was the salmon chorizo with pickled beets. Lobster roll was delicious, nicely presented. We were less enamored by the fish & chips, fries were dry & overcooked, batter was thick, a bit heavy. Service was excellent, the team thoughtful & sweet. Nice dining room, the deli counter dominates a bit & takes away from the coziness but the outside fireplace is a fun touch, especially for diners choosing mimosa a volonté ;). Bathrooms really need a bit of TLC to match the standard of the restaurant.

Franck looked after us tremendously today. Beautiful ambiance inside & out. We ordered the 2 daily specials. Salmon gravlax salad & fresh pasta from market. Both were fabulous & nice choice of wines. Merci Franck!!

Not the best. Inside is a nice decor. I'm sure the raw bar is good but the fried plates are very small portions for yes you guessed it, the price. The Caesar salad is four or five leafs of romaine. Nice presentation, fresh raw sardines was a nice touch. Sadly it was still not enough for a good experience. Staff was very cold. No thank you no have a good day once paid. Just a cold back turned. I've never experienced this. Maybe it's because I only gave a 15 percent tip?

The food is very good from the oysters to the fritto mixto & the charcuterie plate. Everything was very tasty & we enjoyed the scallops & the muscled the most. They tasted fresh & great. The cocktails were also great. Service was a bit slow the day we went but the place was full, this still didn't taint our experience because the food was worth the wait.
