7 days a week we see our establishment become to Old Port passer by's a newfound treasure, as well as a second home The essence of Barroco doesn't solely reside on a single element, but rather in the harmony of various ingredients that create comfort and a "feel good" dining experience. With pride we hand picked every single detail in our restaurant : from the static motion (décor and set-up) to the impeccable delivery of satisfaction.
Barroco in Old Montreal is described in reviews as a charming, intimate spot where the atmosphere, warm service, and high quality food and drinks consistently impress guests. The menu features refined French-inspired dishes like braised beef and duck breast, strong cocktails, and memorable desserts, with many praising attentive service, a beautiful interior, and a cozy bar scene. While experiences are largely excellent, some reviews note small portions for the price, occasional overcooked meat, limited vegetarian options, and the setting can feel busy or pricey, yet the place is widely regarded as a memorable, reliable gem that many patrons plan to return to.
We had a wonderful time! Staff & service was excellent, our dinners were great & we'd definitely recommend Barroco to others! We were celebrating our honeymoon & the server kindly brought us a complimentary glass of bubly which was much appreciated! Thank you!

I celebrated my birthday here with my parents, decent food, atmosphere is nice & cozy, & the service was good. For appetizer,the grilled octopus & for dessert millefuille is a highly recommended!

Excellent services, très beau restaurant avec un magnifique cachet. Huîtres, Asperge, pieuvre, Paella & côte de boeuf, tous incroyablement bon. Bonne gestion & choix de vin.
Très belle expérience, je recommande.
Très bonne expérience, le personnel était souriant & prévenants, aux petits soins pour nous du début à la fin. Quant au repas, certainement l'une des meilleurs viande que j'ai jamais mangé. Le prix est à la hauteur de la qualité !

One of the top during my trip in Montreal. Oysters are fresh, steak is well seasoned & tastes amazing with truffle butter. Paella highly recommended, definitely worth trying!
We had an absolutely delightful time at Barocco last night. I had the short ribs which were outstanding. My husband had their paella. The desserts were unique & delicious. Our waiter was lovely...terrific recommendations & exceptionally friendly! I highly recommend this restaurant if you are in Old Montreal!
Such a little gem of a restaurant that I'm hesitant to leave a glowing review, so I may keep this not-so-secret pearl all to myself! Our server was professional & fun, not stuffy like other high end restos & took great care to work with my food allergy. The oysters were sublime as were the mignonette & sauce. We had the paella which was so flavourful! My dinner partner claimed it was better than the five he tasted in Spain! A Morgon was recommended which is now at the top of my red wine list. Truly a lovely evening in a beautiful, cozy & vibrant & relaxed atmosphere.
