A friend & I were in Montreal for the first time & stumbled into here not knowing anything about it.

Very friendly service & incredible food (one of the better risotto dishes you'll eat). Shoutout to Suzanne & Antoine!

A great cozy place. We headed into to escape the cold, wet weather. Had a nice bowl of soup (carrot / leek) & cup of tea.
Atmosphere we warm & inviting. Food was delicious. A great find.

When we think of our time in Montreal, we'll think of Pincette & of Marie. Her warmth & professionalism elevated an already beautiful experience. The atmosphere is upscale yet inviting-chic, urban energy softened by French country touches. Every detail-from the food to the presentation-felt thoughtful, elegant, & memorable. Marie was warm, polished, & attentive-we were instantly at ease which made our lunch even more magical.

J'ai été avec une amie, je me suis commandé un bloody Cesar signature du restaurant à 24$ & c'était médiocre. Une petite crevette avec une huître & un céleri. Il n'y avait pas de sel de céleri sur bord du verre! Ça goûtait à du V8 dilué rempli de glaçons sans alcool.

Ensuite j'ai pris une chaudrée de palourde comme entrée. Il n'y avait pas de goût, la chaudrée était tiède. Peu de fruits de mers. Vraiment décevant.

J'ai pris une entrée de 6 huîtres, j'ai pu au moins obtenir le spécial malgré le fait que je suis venu après l'heure de la promotion. Le plat était bien présenté.. citron.. piment.. Tabasco. C'était le seul plat qui faisait du sens.

Comme plat principal, j'ai pris une poutine au homard & chair de crabe. C'était une poutine généreuse avec peu de homard & je ne suis même pas certain qu'il y avait de la chair de crabe dedans. C'était vraiment décevant.

En général, je trouve que pour les prix des plats, ceux-ci ne sont pas à la hauteur. C'était ma première & dernière fois à ce restaurant.

An absolutely incredible experience at Pincette - Bar à Homard. The oysters & lobster were truly out of this world fresh, perfectly prepared, & bursting with flavor. You can really taste the quality in every bite.

The customer service was just as impressive. The staff were attentive, knowledgeable, & went above & beyond to make sure everything was perfect. That level of care & attention really elevates the whole experience.

If you're a seafood lover, this place is a must. Easily one of the best dining experiences in Montreal!

The food & drinks were very good! We had the shrimp cocktail as an appetizer, which was presented beautifully & also came with a salad. The scallop risotto was very cheesy, which I liked, & my husband loved the lobster roll. It was quiet around 6:30pm when we arrived but quickly filled up by 7:00.

Super belle expérience au restaurant La Pincette !
Le service était excellent du début à la fin, & un gros merci à Éloïse qui nous a vraiment bien servis 👌

La nourriture était incroyable - je recommande fortement d'aller essayer le homard & le crabe, ça vaut vraiment le détour ! 🦞🦀
