Great value, yummy food 😋 loved it

I recently visited Montreal & had the pleasure of dining here with my sister-& what a wonderful experience it was! From the moment we walked in, the atmosphere was welcoming & vibrant. The service was attentive, friendly, & genuinely warm, which made us feel right at home.

The food was absolutely exceptional. Every dish we tried was full of flavor, beautifully presented, & clearly made with fresh, high-quality ingredients. We enjoyed every bite! The octopus & lamb chops were out of this world.

Pixtos is the kind of place that leaves a lasting impression-not just for its delicious cuisine, but for the way it makes you feel like a special guest. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Montreal. We'll definitely be coming back!

Bon bar à tapas avec du wine pairing.
Les serveur.ses sont accueillant.e.s, la nourriture est correcte & à un bon prix (c' est assez rare pour le mentionner). On a pris le poulpe (bien présenté, bien cuit) & les calamars frits avec 2 cocktails.

Le bémol reste l'ambiance sur-bruyante du central (un mercredi soir sans festival, donc loin d'être le plus bruyant), qui fait que même à l'écart, le bruit reste très présent.

I ordered the pulpo, which came overly salty & mushy. Charcuterie plate disappointingly did not include jamón. Underwhelming & poor for the price.

Chaque fois que je vais au Pintxo situé dans le'CENTRAL' C'est toujours un vrai délice. Je prends souvent la même chose soit la preuve & les calmars frits accompagné d'une bonne bière Estrellas. Sebastian est toujours celui qui nous sert & son service est toujours exceptionnel 👌👌👌🔥🔥🔥 & aujourd'hui ne fait pas exception, c'était encore parfait 👍👍

Authentic Spanish tapas. Very reasonable priced considering you're getting top quality. I've been to fine dining restaurants that paled in comparison to this gem. Well done team pintxo!!

Food was barely edible. I think people go here for drinks. Bad experience.

Très cher, choix de tapas très réduit, & pas de pintxos authentiques, seulement des plats en petites bouchées, dans le style de tapas espagnols. Vous n'aurez pas de pain. & je n'ai pas trouvé de tapas qui m'ont vraiment plu par rapport à ce que j'aurais aimé trouver dans le menu. Le nom du restaurant est mal choisi je dirais. Aussi ce restaurant est dans une foire alimentaire, sachez-le.

Super sevice, les serveurs sont très efficaces. Par contre, les portions sont tres petites pour le prix. Les plats manquent un peu de saveur selon moi. Les étoiles vont pour le service exceptionnel que nous avons reçu.

Adoré l'expérience. Nous avons opté pour le menu dégustation & tout était à point. Bonne quantité, bonnes saveurs & belle présentation. Je dirais que la salade halloumi était un peu simple, mais quand même pas décevante. Sinon shoutout à Éric, super service & excellentes recommandations de vins.
