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.

We love coming to Barocco when we visit Montreal. The staff are so lovely & welcoming & the food is incredible. We sat at the bar & Marc the bartender there made our experience above & beyond. He was personable & gave us amazing recommendations on what to eat & drink. Highly recommend this gem in Montreal!!

This used to be our favourite spot. We had one bad experience a year ago, where the food just wasn't as good as it used to be.. today we decided to give it another try in hopes that it would be as good as we remembered years ago.. but again tonight was so disappointing! The tartare & chicken this evening was underwhelming to say the least. We returned both plates. I'm not sure what happened to this place but it's just not like it once was unfortunately. Very sad.. the service however is great!

All round the experience was great, across the three categories. The restaurant ambience was perfect for sharing a meal & having great conversation! The waiter who took care of us was extremely knowledgeable on the menu options & had fantastic recommendations!

If given the opportunity I would definitely go back, & I would recommend this to anyone looking for a good night out in Montreal.

We had a great night this past week at Barroco. Atmosphere is unique, historic & super cool. It's not a big place but it's a great environment. Phillip & his team took good care of us. They were friendly & attentive. The food was great.

Un petit restaurant de grande qualité, une ambiance conviviale, un service excellent & une expérience culinaire complète. Je mets quand même 4 étoiles pour quelques petites raisons. Nous avions une réservation mais avons dû attendre 35 mins pour être attablés, le serveur nous a donc offert des verres de bulles en attendant dehors comme il faisait très beau. Le menu est riche & appétissant. J'ai trouvé les portions petites pour le prix quand même dispandieux. Tout ce que nous avons mangé était délicieux. La morue était un peu salée à mon goût, mais les plats terre & mer, les entrées & les madeleines sont à ne pas rater. Florian nous a assuré un excellent & plaisant service. Nous avons attendu près de 30 mins pour les entrées, 45 minutes pour les plats & 25 minutes pour le dessert ce que j'ai trouvé quand même long. Nous sommes restés longtemps après l'heure de fermeture & c'est apprécié. Un des petits restaurants à Montréal où la qualité du service & des plats est bien palpable.
