Super agréable repas, service & atmosphère. Nous avons profité de la terrasse. Nous avons découvert la cuisine péruvienne & ce n'est que partie remise! Causa de camarón pour moi & Causa de pulpo al olivo pour mon amie: ce plat à lui seul vaut le détour! Nous avons ensuite partagé le plat Salchipapa Asada: délicieux! Pour dessert, Luna Llena, une pavlova avec une crème pâtissière au maracuya & gelée de mangue. Super! Drinks sans alcool Mango Colada & El Mentiroso sublimes & bien frais! Serveuses gentilles & qui expliquent bien le menu & l'esprit du restaurant! Honnêtement, une belle surprise!
Very good experience. 4.5 stars. Overall the food was great, not 5 stars, but more than 4 definitely. For example, I found pork belly tacos too dry. But all other choices we tried were really good. They don't cheap on drinks, also they have a very large drink menu. Service was good, but I found the environment too loud, especially for the summer time because it's placed on a very busy street with an open patio, terrace, so the music, people chatting, traffic create a lot of noise. Will I recommend it? Yes. But be aware it's a Peruvian urban cuisine, a fusion, if you tried a real one before. Will visit it again.
We were a larger group (6 people) & everything we ordered was wonderful. Our server was very attentive & helpful with explaining items on the menu & making recommendations & the atmosphere is great too! We will definitely be back. Highlights were the Ceviche Classico, the Yuca Fries & the Pisco Sour.
Nous voulions un cocktail épicé, le serveur nous a concocté à chacune un drink sur mesure. Ce fut super apprécié & personnalisé. J'ai demandé une suggestion pour le repas & il ne s'est pas seulement contenté de me dire que tout est bon ici. Il nous a guidé dans le menu avec aplomb. Ce fut donc une découverte culinaire des plus agréable. Nous y retournerons sans hésiter.

Loved everything about the place. Had the opportunity to sit on the patio & have a couple drinks as I soaked up the sun. The Peruvian poutine had great flavour, especially with the seasoning on the chicken.

We ordered lomo saltado, salchipapa brava, chaufa con chicharrón & everything was delicious! The waitress who speaks Spanish was very kind & cordial. It was a family dinner & it was perfect! Thank you Barranco, definitely will recommend 🫶
Je connais bien le restaurant Barranco. C'est un de mes restaurant préféré de Montréal. La cuisine le service, les serveurs... tout est excellent. L'ambiance aussi sauf pour le niveau de bruit qu'il y a à cause du volume de la musique. C'est très difficile d'avoir une conversation sans forcer la voix, même presque crier, ou même de comprendre les explications de la serveuse. Plus le volume de la musique est forte, plus nous crions. C'est logique, mais ça n'a aucun sens. C'est le seul point améliorable à mon avis.
