Barranco is a modern Peruvian cuisine restaurant located in the heart of Plateau Mont-Royal on Saint-Denis Street. It offers authentic flavors thanks to several products imported directly from Peru.
Barranco MTL delivers a lively Peruvian dining experience with fresh ceviche, octopus and seafood rice that feel authentic yet vibrant in a Montreal setting. The menu balances traditional and fusion twists, while cocktails and nonalcoholic options impress with creativity and balance. The service and atmosphere are consistently praised, offering attentive hospitality, a warm, festive vibe, and a welcoming terrace that suits celebrations or casual nights out. Generous portions and a memorable dessert finish make the visit feel like a feast of textures, colors, and bright Peruvian flavors.
We loved the food! It was delicious, very beautifully presented fresh & tasty. Came out pretty fast too. The drinks are super original with lots to choose from.
We had the taquitos chicharron. The anticutcho filet mignon. Two different salchipapas ( omg amazing!) the flavors are sublime here!! We also ordered the yuquitas to try but sadly really didn't enjoy them. The sauce was delish but they tasted like tater tots to us. We did return them.
The rest! Amazing & we can't wait to go back.
The service however lacked. They were slow. Unnatentive. They didn't pick up dirty plates or glasses. They served us our food without cutlery. So we had to wait quiet some time & kindly ask to get some.
We didn't wait at all. We went on a Saturday at about 5:15pm.

Sat inside which was a pretty tacky atmosphere. The waiters kept hounding us to take our order while we were looking at the menu (had three different people trying to serve us). Once the order was taken they brought it in two parts & after eating the first part one of the girls came over after a while & asked if we wanted to order more when we had already ordered three other dishes & had been waiting. Seems like the attention to us really went away once we ordered & they didn't seem to know what we had taken. In regards to the food everything wasn't well seasoned & the food was really subpar for Peruvian food. I feel like all the raving reviews really had us excited but we left pretty disappointed. We wanted to order drinks but everything was 17$ & more which is ludicrous. If you order just 4 drinks you are spending 70$+tax & tip which makes absolutely no sense. I'd definitely avoid this spot.

We went here on a Friday afternoon for dinner. Had a reservation for 6pm but arrived early & were able to get a table & enjoy a few drinks before dinner.
The 5@7 special is amazing as well as the grilled octopus.
Wow!!!! I am so glad that this was our last dinner in Montreal because we would have compared every other to it & would have been disappointed. It was absolutely nothing short of AMAZING! The drinks....best we had the entire time here.....the service was completely on point, friendly, efficient, & the place was busy. We started with sharing Solterito & it was so fresh, well-balanced, & light. My daughter got the ceviche rocoto & I got the anticucho de Pollo....both ridiculously flavorful. I wish I could have ordered one of everything on that menu...seriously. We shared the passion fruit cheesecake & it was perfect. I do not have a single bad thing to say. If you have the chance...go! I absolutely promise you will not be disappointed.
GO GO GO

Really impressed with everything here. We came late last night & the host/manager/& server were accommodating allowing us to sit & enjoy a quick bite as they closed. Our server took extra time with us explaining the origin of some of the dishes (where the names came from) in Peru, even though they were busy closing. That is hospitality. Food, drink, & atmosphere all lined up as well. Thank you!
Great spot in Montreal for food! We got tacos, octopus, & civeche.
We found there were too many potatoes with the octopus & too much lime in the Ceviche. Tacos were great, drinks were great. Dessert was also amazing.
Being a Peruvian living in Montreal is difficult to find good « Peruvian Food » & I have to tell that this place was amazing, really worth the visit, the food, the service, the drinks 100%!!!

Absolutely loved this place! The drinks were delicious & perfectly balanced. The food was just as impressive-especially the Jarey D'Agnon, which was full of flavor & beautifully presented. The team was incredibly friendly & professional, creating a warm & welcoming atmosphere. Price-wise, everything felt reasonable & made sense for the quality. Highly recommend for anyone craving authentic Peruvian cuisine in Montreal!
The vibe of the place was fun. A bit on the loud side but was still enjoyable to talk with friends.
The staff was very dedicated to accomodate the meal to my dietary restrictions.
I didn't get to try a lot but everything was tasty.
Probably will be coming back for the drinks.
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!
The food was amazing! HOWEVER, the waiters completely ignored us. They didn't show up to take our orders until I raised my hands a few times, they didn't check on me during the meal, I even ran out of drinking water. If I could do 0 star for the service, I would.
