Restaurant situé dans le Vieux Montréal. Décoration originale dans le thème marin. Carte des menus courte mais variée malgré tout. On peut trouver aisément son choix. Belle présentation pour les assiettes. Portions des plats : c'est correct. Service rapide. (Visite le 10 mars 2024)View more

My last trip to Montreal coincidentally aligned with their restaurant festival, Mtl a Table, where participating nicer restaurants offer a prix fixe menu to invite people to try them out that may not usually otherwise. This brought me to Pincette - Bar à Homard, which turned out to be just a few blocks away from my hotel on Old Montreal. It did take me a bit to find because of confusing Google Maps directions, but eventually I made it inside & was seated at the bar. I was offered the regular menu but when advised I was here for the prix fixe, they brought that one. There was a choice of four appies, four mains & three desserts for $68. I had already pre-scouted the menu, as is my habit, so I got my order in quickly & service was fairly quick at the bar. I started with the Magdelan Island scallops, seared, vegetables, coconut milk, curry & clam juice. This was an $8 up charge to the prix fixe, but I couldn't resist the chance for some local scallops. This was probably my favourite of the three dishes I had. The scallops were large, fresh & juicy, & the curry sauce & veggies wasn't a pairing I would have thought of on my own but it worked well & it was creamy & flavourful. I stayed with local ingredients for my main, the Manicougan halibut, confit in olive oil, root vegetables, bisque & black mullet caviar. 'm a big fan of halibut -- it's probably my go-to restaurant fish -- but I didn't like this execution. With the confit it was too dry & overcooked. Halibut is better grilled, or breaded & fried. The sauce & veg were fine & the plating was attractive, but it couldn't rescue the lackluster fish. Finally, for dessert I kept it simple with the mango sorbet. It was delicious. Overall, while this was an OK meal it was not my favourite of my visit & will not be on my list for a return visit when I'm next in Montreal. For the price I paid, I expect a properly cooked piece of fish.View more
