A creative cocktail program utilizes seasonal spirits and homemade infusions to complement the depth of the kitchen offerings. Wood accents and flickering lighting define the interior, contributing to an intimate environment focused on shared plates and substantial flavors.

Unfortunately seated to the restroom which my wife was very unhappy with. Was our anniversary dinner (15 years ) & was really underwhelmed.
First time in Montreal & Google Gemini highly suggested.

My wife was not pleased with her food except her salad.She had the duck meal which she described as somewhat dry/overcooked.

Would state that the braised beef was exceptional

Would not recommend as a first choice for a romantic dinner for an anniversary. The ambience is definitely urban chic.

We had a wonderful (& memorable) dinner here back in Sept 2025. As early diners, we were the first in, but it quickly filled up. The meal was exquisite, & the service was amazing. We'll be back next time we're in Montreal!

Marc is simply the bomb in terms of mixology! From a fresh twist on a hibiscus infused tequila based cocktail to the perfect vesper martinis & old fashions. We were treated to a show of his skills while seated at the bar & were privileged to enjoy the in-house prepared foie gras followed by a very fresh & flavourful beef tartare. The pavlova for dessert was also off the chart. We will definitely come back every chance we get. This place has never disappointed me through the many years & has gotten better with time.

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.

We'd been wanting to try Barroco for a long time, but as the restaurant isn't very large we hadn't been able to book a last-minute reservation until last night. I'm so glad we did. Suffice it to say that every dish was a delicious symphony of flavors in your mouth.
Below is a pic of their braised beef in an aged balsamic & maple sauce (usually comes with mashed potatoes, but I asked for asparagus instead) which they've had on the menu since they opened. If you haven't been yet, you have to check it out!
