Neighborhood gem
Great for fine wines
Charming

A trip to Barcelona nestled in Montréal's quintessential Outremont neighbourhood. Tinc Set ("I'm thirsty in Catalan) is Alma's sister restaurant, located right next door on Avenue Lajoie. Part of Canada's Top 100 Restaurants List, Tinc Set is a tapas and wine bar that specializes in fresh seafood, Barcelona-style roasted chicken and Catalan natural wine. Come for apéro or for a full dinner. Operated by husband-wife team, Chef Juan Lopez Luna and sommelier Lindsay Brennan, Tinc Set offers the finest selection of Catalan wines in Canada and the best churros (maybe in the world!) Our outdoor seating is first come, first served.

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: The chef-and-somm power couple behind Alma run this tapas bar next door, which is also on Canada’s 100 Best Restaurants list. Tinc Set leans more casual with a counter and some tables inside and a patio out front, where you can pull up a stool to a wine barrel for Barcelona-style roast chicken, pan con tomate with anchovies, and Catalan wines.

Value for price paid was lacking. Table shaky. Uncomfortable seating. Menu limited with little description of what to expect. Wait staff had difficulty explaining their offerings. Would not recommend.

Délicieuse nourriture espagnole. Nous nous sommes laissés guider par notre serveuse et l’expérience a été parfaite. Mention spéciale au Pan con aillo et au Aguachile de pétoncles.
