Review Summary

Across the reviews, Pintxo is praised for well executed dishes and attentive service, with highlights including octopus, lamb, scallops, and calamari, and a strong wine list that complements the tapas. Diners describe a vibrant, authentic Spanish vibe and consistently good value, with meals that feel creative, flavorful, and well presented thanks to fresh ingredients. The menu is often noted as delicious and satisfying, and many guests say they would gladly return, sometimes for a lunch before travel or a lively dinner. A few caveats appear about portions that feel small for the price, occasional inconsistency in flavor, and a noisy ambiance at times, with some comments on hygiene in a particular visit. Overall Pintxo comes across as a memorable tapas destination that delivers tasty food, friendly service, and a lively atmosphere that leaves a lasting impression on guests.

An absolutely basic bar, with expensive drinks & rude staff. Some of the staff even came to the food court seating to check what I was drinking. The staff chatted about the customers while preparing very simple food.

Mi visita fue… peculiar. Ver a algunos empleados bebiendo mientras trabajaban me hizo pensar que la fiesta era para ellos, no para los clientes. Ver al cocinero manejando productos sin guantes tampoco ayudó: la higiene parece opcional.

La ensaladilla rusa fue otro misterio culinario, nada que ver con lo que uno espera según uno de los chicos era desconstruida jajajaja jajajaja vaya tomadura de pelo.Eso sí, el camarero Juan fue un verdadero profesional, el único punto brillante de la noche.

En resumen: un sitio memorable por las razones equivocadas.

I got the 4-course lunch menu for $29 & it was so good. I can't believe this is real, in a world where inflation exploded restaurant prices.

Located in Le Central, Pintxo offfers a delicious selection of tapas. My favorite was the Octopus, probably the most tender Octopus i've ever had.

Cuisine & nourriture qui ne méritent rien de moins que 5⭐!
La pieuvre était cuite à la perfection, les pétoncles étaient incroyables, on en aurait commandé 2 douzaines de plus! & que dire des côtelettes d'agneau! Nous n'avons pas pu résister à une deuxième portion!
Bien hâte d'y retourner!
Les DIMANCHES, promo 35$ entrée de haloumi frit avec salade roquette, 2 pétoncles & choix de plat principal (nous avons essayé la pieuvre & les côtelettes d'agneau)
Suivi d'un dessert.
QUELLE DÉCOUVERTE!!!
(notre prix par personne inclus 4 verres de vin & une bière)

Parfait ! Ce lieu mérite à être connu !
Menu unique du midi, entrée plat dessert pour 30$, tout était délicieux, bien présenté, bien travaillé, rien à redire, tout ça dans un environnement décontracté.
Ne mérite pas son nom de bar à tapas car il surpasse bons nombres de restaurants...
