Barroco was the highlight of our trip to Montreal...so good, we went back a 2nd time. First, the inside of the restaurant is beautiful. It is intimate & romantic but also accessible. & we loved the music! Instead of sleepy dinner tunes, they played a great mix of classic & upbeat music that we really enjoyed.

The food & wine list were stellar. Favorites were the OG shortrib, oysters & duck. My wife loved the seabass paired with an Alsace riesling. I think we also tried every dessert. Don't sleep on the tarte, it's excellent! They gave it to us for free to thank us for coming back a 2nd night!

Service was wonderful. Super attentive, friendly. The perfect spot to go in Montreal.

The only downside of this place is that we visited it on our first night in town & we don't know how any where else will even come close. The atmosphere was just what we wanted for a cold wintery night. We sat at the bar & the service was the best I've had in a while. Not only was the bartender, Joaquin, attentive but he really knew his drinks & food. Food was unexpectedly delicious as well. I got the special & it did not disappoint. Wish we had a place like this back home.

Edit: We came back 5 years later in the summer & just as good as we remember!

Came here for dinner last night, it was an incredible experience. Amazing food, & fantastic attentive service. Everyone that worked here was lovely to interact with. The previous night we were at another restaurant that was good, but the service here & attention to detail really set this dining experience apart from anything else!! Would recommend booking a reservation here to anyone who is visiting in Montreal! We will absolutely be back in the future!

We recently dined here, & overall, it was a memorable experience. The food was absolutely superb! every dish was flavorful, beautifully presented, & clearly made with quality ingredients. The atmosphere was also fantastic, with a warm & inviting ambiance that made the evening feel special.

However, the service could definitely be improved. We had to wait quite a long time for our food, which took away from the overall experience. While the quality of the dishes made up for it in some ways, better timing & attentiveness would make this place even better.

Still, Barroco is worth visiting for the amazing food & great atmosphere.

Travellers dining here for the first time. Service was attentive but not intrusive. Food was outstanding. Highly recommend the braised beef. Fork tender with celery root purée. I thought I'd gone to heaven. Heritage building with dim lighting but a lively atmosphere. Would come here again!

I don't live in Montreal or Canada even but each time I visit, I come to Barroco. The cocktails are creative (Paper Crane & Echo Chamber last night) & the food was delicious. Above & beyond is the atmosphere & attentive service. Florian was beyond nice & made the celebration of our niece's graduation even more special.
