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.

I have been to Barocco many times, which is why I chose to celebrate my birthday here. Unfortunately, the experience was really disappointing.

The service was slow from the start, our drinks took forever, & we were served a weak Casamigos after the bottle had run out. Our concern was initially denied, then confirmed when staff admitted they were out of Casamigos-yet we were still charged for it. Later, after moving an empty plate to the booth beside us to make room on the table, our waitress accused us of trying to steal it, which was both unnecessary & insulting.

The food was genuinely great, but the service took away from what should have been a special birthday celebration.

It's a shame, because this used to be one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. Sadly, we'll be taking a break from coming back.

Returning to Montreal after 10 years, I had to revisit one of my favorite meals ever. The menu has changed, but the experience has not. We had a wonderful evening. Bavette & Duck Breast were both perfect. I did feel 10 years older ;).

Une expérience absolument mémorable au Barroco. Chaque plat était visuellement magnifique & délicieux.

La petite brioche servie avec une noix de beurre aux herbes était tout simplement parfaite. Nous avons également beaucoup apprécié la finesse de la présentation sur leurs assiettes marquées du nom du restaurant. C'est une adresse incontournable dans le Vieux-Montréal pour ceux qui apprécient les détails soignés.
