Cocktails (Pisco Sour) - exellent
Food (Mentirositas, Lomo Saltado, Arroz Con Mariscos) - not too bad, but I expected more from restaurant with this rating. Some oversalted, some overcooked...
Service - nice.
Music&atmosphere inside - too loud.
Overall, I can't to say that this is bad spot, but can't rate it with 5 stars
C'est notre resto « découverte de l'année »! Personnel chaleureux & accueillant, l'ambiance est parfaite pour une soirée festive entre amis!! Les plats sont savoureux, exécutés à la perfection. Chaque bouchée nous fait voyager.
Difficile de faire un choix parmi les nombreux cocktails proposés. Ils sont tous exceptionnels & valent clairement le détour!
À découvrir assurément!

Absolutely buzzing spot, Barranco MTL is where the soul of Peru meets the heart of Le Plateau!
First off, the ceviche here is a star. Fresh, vibrant, & packed with flavor, easily one of the best ceviches in Montreal, hands down. If you're a ceviche lover, you can't miss this.
Beyond ceviche, the menu is a playful blend of Peruvian street food & gourmet flair. Causas, salchipapas, & even burgers get the Peruvian treatment. The octopus & arroz con mariscos are crowd-pleasers.
The cocktail game is strong. Pisco sours, maracuja sours, & creative mixes like the spicy mango sour or chilcano are crafted with care & served with flair.
Now, the vibe: it's lively, colorful, & a bit noisy-just like the Barranco district in Lima. Perfect for a night out with friends, a weekend brunch, or a romantic evening.
Whether you're Peruvian, a foodie, or just looking for a great time, Barranco MTL is a must-visit.
Book ahead, or try your luck at the bar for a late-night bite-you won't regret it! 🌟🇵🇪🍹

Absolutely incredible experience! The food was amazing, everyone at our table was raving about it, we couldn't get enough. Cocktails are great, atmosphere is awesome, music wasn't too loud & the staff were so kind. I will 100% be back, highly recommend.
Amazing food & drinks, been multiples times & never been disappointed. The lomo saltado, salchipapas asado, yuca fries, & the seafood rice are all amazing. Would recommend the pisco sour or any other of their speciality cocktails & also the chicha morada which is amazing. Definitely recommend!
Une escapade au Pérou le temps d'une soirée.
Des cocktails frais, une belle ambiance musicale & de la bonne viande. Un gros bonus pour le dessert au chocolat & le service impeccable de notre serveuse Alexandrine. J'enlève juste une petite étoile pour le fait que le menu manque un peu de légumes & fraîcheur. Une belle expérience 😊
Warm welcome, delicious drinks, & a perfectly balanced ceviche? Couldn't ask for more any night of the week. Cocktail menu spans from a sweet tooth through to the dryer of pallets. Variety of enticing menu items is plentiful & the portions were satisfying. A couple of fun hours we will be sure to repeat.
We had a great experience here. Some truly outstanding dishes - the ceviche was so fresh & flavorful! Also really enjoyed seafood rice & dessert. The fried chicken was forgettable & the sausage was a little too salty. Cocktails were fun & ambiance is great at night albeit a bit dim.
Overall a nice & different cuisine to taste! The cocktail menu was very unique! Specially the Barranco which had a beautiful & exciting presentation & a unique taste! The fillet mignon stew (forgot the name) was very delicious!

Waouh, quelle belle découverte ! L'une de mes meilleures expériences culinaires. Service exceptionnel, nourriture délicieuse, cocktails excellents. Parfait endroit pour une date night épicée.
Incredible & unique cocktails, wonderful food & a bustling vibe. Food service was just a touch slow so we didn't have time for dessert unfortunately but otherwise a great night!
Went for brunch on Saturday. Our server was very cheerful & genuinely enthusiastic about the offerings. The causa appetizer with the octopus was delicious & a good size to share with my partner. The pisco sour cocktails were refreshing & paired well with the acidic kick of the ceviche. We'll be back!
La qualité de la nourriture, des cocktails & du service a vraiment diminué. On a été vraiment super déçus de notre dernier souper là-bas (nourriture & cocktail, poulpe mal cuit) alors que c'était un de nos restau préféré. Ça ne goûte plus du tout aussi bon mais c'est le même prix voir plus cher...
