Palomar est perçu comme un lieu axé sur les fruits de mer avec une ambiance de marché où les huîtres fraîches, gravlax, tartare et rolls au homard ressortent; la possibilité de choisir le poisson au comptoir et de le faire griller apporte une touche distinctive, et l'atmosphère est souvent décrite comme chaleureuse, détendue et animée. Le service est fréquemment salué pour son efficacité et sa gentillesse, et la qualité globale des fruits de mer est mise en avant, bien que certains avis signalent une fraîcheur inégale de certains poissons, des temps d'attente occasionnels et des questions sur le rapport qualité-prix.
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.

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.
Very slow service. Resto wasn't full, maybe 5 tables in all & yet it took over 40mins to get 1 benedict, 1 crab salad, & 1 lobster roll. Portions are extremely small & tasteless. Food needs more flavoring. Even when wanted to pay the bill I had to get up to get the attention of a staff member. Bill was 135, I paid 160 but I'll never go again. I think it's way overrated

We had an excellent meal today at Palomar. We ordered the Shrimp & Waffles & the Lobster Pain Perdu. They were both delicious & tasted quite unique. Although unexpected, we also recommend their caffeinated beverages that we found quite smooth & hit the right notes. Looking forward to going back for dinner soon.
Loved this seafood place. The raw bar is great, had the oysters, fresh & yummy. Had the half lobster, great presentation & delicious 😋 🤩 great service 🤠😁 for sure going back soon.
We came for brunch & loved it. We tried the lobster pain perdu & Reuben sandwich which were both delicious. The seats at the bar are the best, you get to watch them prep your food. Definitely coming back for the dinner menu!
Half lobster, poached egg, béarnaise, herb salad on a terrace, Sunday, under the autumn sun & great discussions on psychology & travel. This is Montreal 🥰
