Both the food & service were beyond exceptional. The braised beef melts in your mouth, the halibut was cooked to perfection. The winter salad was exceptional. More importantly, our server, wish I recalled his name was informative & attentive! My wife & I could not give a higher recommendation. On our way out, a couple asked us if we enjoyed it & should they go try it! Our answer was YES

Our final dinner on our trip did not disappoint! Barroco is a small, romantic little place. A petite menu with a little bit of everything. We enjoyed the homemade brioche with onion butter, roasted chicken & our favorites hand down was Braised Beef!

Barroco was phenomenal! Major kudos to Marc who runs their bar program & made fantastic cocktails. The beef tartare was the best we've ever had, hands down!

Excellent experience. The atmosphere in the restaurant was cozy & lively. The drinks were phenomenal. We started with the leeks & scallops, which were delicious, & shared the beef wellington for our main which was fantastic. The steak inside the Wellington was the best cut of meat I've had in a long time.
Our server was very attentive & personable, & gave excellent recommendations. I will make a point of going back to this restaurant the next time I'm in town.

We had one night in Montreal. Barroco had great reviews & did not disappoint. Three of us had the braised beef & I had a duck breast special. There was not a morsel left. To start I had oysters & others had the scallops. Both were winners. George our server was terrific. It's a little pricey but for one night! Great wine list. I'd go back for sure.

Tremendous food experience. We had the oysters, a farm salad, & the beef Wellington for 2. The service was delightful & the food delicious. It's a small restaurant with about 12 tables & that un hurried & gracious European dining style. Our best meal in Montreal.

First of all, the staff is fantastic. After my first night there for just drinks I had to come back for dinner.
Adding the Foyot Sauce to the Beef Tartare added more dimension & deeper beef flavor.
The octopus on the bed of ratatouille topped with paprika was perfect.

Our experience at Barroco was outstanding! Service was fabulous, the drinks were unique & delicious, & the food was really tasty. We got the braised beef & the halibut. The brown butter halibut is a must try. We also loved the mezcal espresso martinis for dessert. The ambiance made for a cozy but elevated night.

Decadent but worth it! We had great service in a charming space & that OG Braised Beef is insanely good. Unlike anything I've had (& I'm from Kansas City & have had lots of braised beef)! Lobster salad & gravlax were also great. All around lovely dinner for our last night in Montreal.

Came here for the late night menu special for 29$. We tried the beef tartare, the duck & the gnocchi. They were all delicious & flavorful. Definitely worth the price.
The ambiance is nice & cozy. The staff was friendly as well.

The braised beef was pretty good but the Butcher's cut steak was extremely bland, unseasoned, & very very fatty (1/4 of the steak was not edible). The mash potato that came with the steak was also very bland I couldnt finish it. The braised beef's sauce saved me tho I had to dip the steak in there cause it tasted like nothing for $75. Service was okay when we came in we werent greeted & had to wait for a while even though we had reservations. Service felt really rushed. Atmosphere was nice & cozy :) overall experience was okay, definitely not worth the pricetag

Full 5 star experience. Everything from the food, service & restaurant vibe was perfect. The BBQ oysters did not disappoint. My only regret was not ordering 6 more. The farm salad was very flavourful but also fresh. Their braised beef (signature meal) was excellent. (If you don't love celery then I'd say choose something else since their potato purée does have a strong celery taste to it) Waitress was very knowledgeable, showed confidence in the menu & also caught on that it was a special occasion so she brought out a sparkler. Last but not least - drinks were also made to perfection. Paid parking lot 10 steps away from the resto came in handy. Can't wait to be back - specifically for the BBQ oysters.

This place is perfection in every way. It was completely full & so busy but our server never seemed flustered or rushed in any way. She was lovely, provided impeccable service & never missed an opportunity to pour our wine. The food was top notch. I had the beef tartare & poached halibut & my husband had the chicken liver parfait & braised beef. Every bite was amazing. Such a memorable meal in a beautiful setting. You definitely need a reservation & rightly so. Fantastic all round.

Visiting Barroco in Old Montreal was an unforgettable experience, especially thanks to their phenomenal Beef Shortribs, which was hands-down the best meal of my life. We opted for the Menu du Chef, & every dish was a delightful surprise, masterfully prepared & bursting with flavors. The ambiance of the restaurant offers a cozy yet elegant backdrop perfect for a special evening, complemented by staff who are both attentive & welcoming, making you feel right at home. Everything about Barroco was perfect, from start to finish. I'm already looking forward to my next visit to try those incredible shortribs again. If you find yourself in Old Montreal, Barroco is a must-visit spot-you won't regret it!

This place was amazing. I'd highly reccomend. Service & ambiance were 5 star. The beef tartare & beef short rib were were 5 out of 5. My wife got the guinea hen was very good but we both agree the the beef short rib was best.
