Wow!! super service, menu varié, ambiance super. Nous avons passer une très belle soirée. Expérience à refaire.
Merci à notre hôtesse Leonie très attentionnée qui a fait une belle différence pour cette occasion spéciale.
2 weeks ago I made a reservation here for my birthday after discovering the restaurant through Mtl a table. Needless to say I was very much looking forward to dining here but the night was off to a very rough start: despite making a reservation over a week in advance, my family & I were made to wait 40 minutes before being sat. Had this been a walk-in it we would've understood but having to wait this long with a reservation was unacceptable. When we tried to express our concern to the hostess & waitress, none seemed to acknowledge us.
It wasn't until we spoke to Shaheen, the manager, that things took a complete 180. He personally tended to our table the whole night & really pampered us like royalty. I have truly never felt more special dining somewhere, he really went out of his way to make up for our wait. This was such a memorable & overwhelmingly positive experience overall that our initial disappointment was long forgotten by the end of the night
Shaheen, if you read this, thank you so much for taking care of me & my family, you have definitely made us loyal customers & we can't wait to be back!
Went for the Mtl a Table event. Menu consisted of an appetizer, main & dessert, for $50. I had the grilled octopus, the mahi mahi ceviche & the chocolate mousse. Everything was good. There were 4 of us so we got to try everything on that menu. The brussels sprouts were surprisingly good. The fried rice was a bit too salty. But all in all a pleasant meal. Service was great. Our waitress was so friendly.

Ce fût une très belle première expérience.
Nous avons eu un service exceptionnel de la part de tout le personnel pour souligner notre 30e anniversaire de couple. Nous avons bénéficié du forfait Montréal à table qui nous a permis de déguster les spécialités du restaurant & nous avons adoré tout ce que nous avons mangé.
Ce fût un coup de coeur ❤?
Easy to give a high rating because the service & atmosphere were wonderful! The food was good, but every dish was just a bit too salty with not much else going on flavour-wise. Nothing I was blown-away by. Desserts were excellent.
Le ceviche & la tarte fromage & coulis fruit de la passion sont absolument délicieux & le service courtois, chaleureux & professionnel. J'ai adoré y aller & savoure chaque bouchée. Merci !!

Ce n'est pas ma première fois & non plus la dernière! Toujours un bon resto pour manger!!! Très très bon & recommandé. Pour la le plat Salchipapa aux poulet est le meilleur!!!
Never disappointed to be back in Montreal & at Barranco Restaurant! This is our 5th time coming here, & it's still our favorite spot in Canada. This time we also tried Piel Canela for their brunch - 5/5 stars as well! Please open a location in Toronto!
Cet endroit dépasse facilement même certains des restaurants les plus célèbres du Pérou. C'est tout simplement fantastique - ils devraient absolument ouvrir un restaurant à Toronto !
This place easily surpasses even some of the most famous restaurants in Peru. It's beyond fantastic - they should definitely open a restaurant in Toronto!
