I visited on September 13, 2025, taking myself for dinner before going to a laser light show at Notre Dame. I sat on the patio. The restaurant was very busy & every table was full. Despite this, the servers were very attentive. My server recommended the scallops & a red wine served cold(cannot remember the name). Service was quick & there old was delicious. The whole vibe was great. 11/10, will definitely be back.

I brought clients from the U.S. to this place in Old Montreal. They loved the location & enjoyed walking around the Old Port afterward. They also really liked the food & the atmosphere of the restaurant.

The restaurant was also very accommodating, as we had originally reserved for a group of 24 people but ended up being only 20.

Très belle expérience! La nourriture est excellente. La boisson était un peu trop sucrée à mon goût mais rien de grave. Je recommande !

Pincette - Bar à Homard is a seafood restaurant located in the busy tourist section of Old Montreal. We visited in mid-May 2026 & had some really good food.

For drinks, we had the Mint Refresher ($12) with mint, white cranberries, & gingerale as well as the Peachy Mood ($12) with peach, blood orange, & lime. Both quite refreshing.

For our food, we started with the Snow Crab Ceviche ($24) with black garlic aioli & then moved on to the Lobster Tagliatelle ($42) with black mullet caviar & the Garlic Shrimps ($25) with butter, garlic, & croutons. Pricewise, dishes trend towards the expensive side but in-line with seafood prices & the touristy area. However, the food is quite good & has plenty of flavour. Loved the black mullet caviar in the tagliatelle.

This was one of our fav meals during our visit to Vieux-Montréal.

Juliette a été super durant ce service, nous sommes des habitués & ne sommes jamais déçu par la qualité de ce restaurant. La poutine au homard vaut vraiment le coup.
