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.

Bar à tapas avec personnes souriantes au service ! Petit plus : vous goûtez le vin avant de le deguster !

Bonne nourriture super ambiance mais le serveur m'a demander de rester polis avec lui alors qu'il a tenter de me prendre 56% de pourboire en me donnant la mauvais change.

Super place, bonne bouffe, service super. MAIS! Serveur super arrogant au paiement même s'il a reçu 30% de pourboire... assez arrogant en plus à répliquer. Peut-être revoir cela avec votre serveur...

Endroit visité plus d'une fois. Très bons tapas, bons vins & excellent service. MAIS hier soir un homme assis au comptoir s'est mis à engueuler une serveuse. Très malaisant & inacceptable.

They offer great wine & drink options as well as a fun tapas menu. There are lots of great options for every taste. We had a great cava & a couple of the starters.

Our first time at La Central & we were very impressed. This restaurant even has table service, which I did not realize was an option here. You sit where you want & just advise them or they may notice you grabbing the menu & head over. The food was really good, we had a variety of dishes & some drinks. You cannot argue with the price either, I assume the overhead is reduced since they are within La Central, so you get a good deal versus a full restaurant. This area doesn't have the best food options, so I'm glad to see this option available for a nice meal & a decent price & there are many others within La Central as the place was quite busy & I have heard good things about many of the restaurants.

Plats délicieux & service au top avec une ambiance sympathique à la montréalaise. Si vous voulez passer un bon moment, installez-vous au comptoir & vous ferez de belles rencontres autour d'un verre de vin.

The waitress was nice. The octopus was tender, but smelly, so we couldn't eat it. Both the scallops & the shrimp were undercooked. The potatas brava weren't crispy or spicy. So, not my favorite place.

I didn't know octopus could taste so good! It was like chicken.

They seem to have raised their prices quite a bit. However, it's still really good. The $17 lobster tail is definitely worth it; the $10 scallops are very small in portions but they're also really good.
