    Oyster and grilled octopus are nice. Surf and turf is a total disappointment. No flavours for the shrimps and they seemed to be frozen instead fresh shrimps. We ordered medium rare and the steak was overcooked. Very chewy… Lobster risotto is good. Service provided is very very basic. We spent $237 for the whole meal which doesn’t worth at all.

    We looked online for a spot in Montreal and so glad we ended up at Pincette. The food was fantastic and the service was exceptional. Lovely vibe with the music, the atmosphere and interiors. Definitely going back on my next trip to Montreal. They truly care about providing the best in class experience.

    It was our first time dining at La Pincette. We arrived 15 minutes prior to our reservation, we were warmly received, and seated immediately. There were several interesting items on the menu, so we shared three small plates and one main course. Our server provided some excellent advice with regard to the wine list. Great experience! We will be back.

    Beau choix au niveau du menu. Il ne manque qu’une bisque de homard ou de palourdes dans les entrées durant la période d’hiver.

    The resturant is in a beautiful location but as many may already know old Montreal isn’t fun to find parking! The service was fabulous I couldn’t ask for any better.The issue for me was the food, it really wasn’t that great.The lobster inside my lobster roll seemed like pre frozen or from a can, it was so cold it hurt my sensitive teeth and it was way to salty to enjoy.The scallop's I ordered were absolutely not fresh my husband nearly spat his out on the table.Finally the desert :( so sad a pre made re warmed chocolate something with a few berries that tasted like mold.
