About

Barroco fuses rustic Mediterranean foundations with a sophisticated approach to comfort food within a historic, stone-walled setting. The menu centers on elevated Spanish and French influences, highlighting high-quality proteins prepared with deliberate technique and bold seasoning. Patrons encounter a focused selection of small plates designed for sharing, alongside hearty main courses that emphasize depth of flavor through traditional roasting and braising methods. The atmosphere remains consistently intimate, characterized by dim lighting and exposed structural elements that reflect the heritage of the building. Each dish relies on the integrity of seasonal ingredients to define its profile, ensuring that the culinary execution remains both precise and intentional. This establishment offers a cohesive experience that prioritizes the intersection of heritage-inspired recipes and modern preparation styles for a discerning crowd.

Review Summary

Barroco is widely celebrated as a premier dining destination in Old Montreal, consistently praised for its intimate, rustic atmosphere and exceptional service. Guests frequently highlight the quality of the cuisine, with dishes like the braised beef, beef Wellington, and various seafood options earning high accolades for their flavor and preparation. While the restaurant is often described as cozy and perfect for romantic occasions, some patrons note that the space can feel small or occasionally loud. Although a few visitors have pointed out premium pricing or longer wait times during busy periods, the consensus remains that the combination of creative cocktails, high-quality ingredients, and a welcoming staff makes this establishment a must-visit experience.

What an amazing experience! The lights off the streets attracted us in & the vibe, décore & wonderful service made us instantly know we were in the perfect spot.
We sat at the bar & Marc was our host. he makes the best drinks & was honestly one of the most genuine great people I've met in a long time. The food was delicious & every item we saw come from the kitchen made us want to order even more.

Thank you Marc & see you again soon!

Our waitress was lovely but from the time we sat down, we felt rushed. She returned three times in 10 minutes to see if we were ready to order drinks. Since we don't speak French it took us a bit longer to get through the menu. I think this was a one off though as she was very accommodating after she realized we weren't in a hurry. We were there 1.5 hours total so we weren't looking to overstay.

Everything about this place was great! The beef Wellington was worth the wait (50 minutes of cooking time), but with some delicious starters like beef tartare & oysters & some drinks it went by fast!

The special drinks were delicious. The crusty halibut was one of the best fish dishes I have ever eaten. My husband enjoy his steak. The Octopus & russian salad was tasty. We ordered brioche & butter & only got one tiny roll to share. Disappointing for $9 Canadian dollars

Excellent meal except for the fact there were no vegetables. Also it was too
expensive. We were surprised to find our drinks were $22 each.

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.

Incredible. Inviting experience in Old Montreal. The'drinks' are worth a visit coupled with food to enjoy with every bite. We've lived in France, went to grad school there. Book a table online & enjoy some of the best food & drink anywhere in Old Montreal.
