C'était une déception, c'est le genre de restaurant où vous ne savez pas pourquoi on vous apporte la facture. Les portions sont certes de qualité mais très très petites & très chères. Si vous voulez manger de l'espagnol il y a à Montréal des biens meilleurs choix.

Bonne cuisine, mauvais service.

Attendez vous à payer minimum 85$ par personne sans boisson, car les bouchées sont très petites, bien que succulantes. La serveuse était très sympathique & connaissante du menu.

Nous avons trouvez ce petit resto sur internet & nous avons été charmé... L'ambiance est chaleureuse, on nous explique bien le concept & les choix du menu... Belle Carte des vins avec plusieurs importations privées... C'est une belle découverte & je le recommande vraiment...

Bel endroit. Même si ce n'est pas très grand on ne s'y sent pas étouffé. Belle décoration. Service impeccable & excellents tapas. Difficile de faire un choix. Tout est délicieux.

Le Pintxo est un de mes restaurants favoris à Montréal. Une vraie expérience culinaire. J'y retourne régulièrement. Je recommande un menu dégustation pour deux + 3-4 tapas additionnels (le foie gras a la plancha en particulier). Seul petit bémol, depuis leur déménagement suite à l'incendie de leur ancienne bâtisse au printemps 2015, leur nouveau local est assez exigu mais rappelle ceux du Pays Basques espagnoles !

Nous n'avions pas mangé dans ce resto depuis environ une année, & nous avons été ravie de constater que la cuisine n'y a en rien perdu de la qualité qu'elle avait. La morue noire était comme toujours savoureuse & mes deux partners de table peuvent témoigner que leur côte de boeuf avait fait l'objet d'une cuisson minutieusement parfaite. Heureuse donc de constater que dans ce quartier où tant de restos connaissent un déclin de leur qualité celui-ci demeure intègre & parmi les meilleurs restaurants espagnoles en ville.
