Barroco fusionne des fondements méditerranéens rustiques avec une approche sophistiquée des plats réconfortants au sein d'un cadre historique aux murs de pierre. Le menu se concentre sur des influences espagnoles et françaises marquées, mettant en avant des protéines de haute qualité préparées avec une technique précise et des assaisonnements audacieux. La clientèle découvre une sélection ciblée de petites assiettes conçues pour le partage, ainsi que des plats principaux copieux qui privilégient la profondeur des saveurs grâce aux méthodes traditionnelles de rôtissage et de braisage. L'ambiance demeure résolument intime, caractérisée par un éclairage tamisé et des éléments structurels apparents qui reflètent l'héritage du bâtiment. Chaque plat repose sur l'intégrité des ingrédients saisonniers pour définir son profil, assurant une exécution culinaire à la fois rigoureuse et intentionnelle. Cet établissement privilégie la rencontre entre des recettes patrimoniales et des styles de préparation modernes.
Barroco est largement reconnu comme une destination gastronomique incontournable du Vieux-Montréal, saluée pour son atmosphère intime et rustique, son cachet historique et la qualité exceptionnelle de ses plats. De nombreux visiteurs soulignent la finesse du bœuf braisé, la fraîcheur des fruits de mer et l'originalité des cocktails comme points forts, tout en notant qu'un service attentionné et compétent enrichit l'expérience globale. Bien que l'établissement soit fréquemment décrit comme un lieu idéal pour des soirées romantiques ou des célébrations, certains clients mentionnent que les tarifs sont élevés et que l'espace peut parfois paraître bruyant ou étroit. Malgré quelques rares déceptions concernant le rythme du service ou la préparation de certains mets, une vaste majorité de la clientèle considère cet endroit comme une adresse d'excellence et un passage obligé dans la métropole.
Very good restaurant, great atmosphere with great service. If I am being picky the Ribeye although perfectly cooked did not have an aged taste. A small green salad with the fries would have been nice rather than being an additional price. it's a $70 plate. You could say eating steak at a French restaurant is not making the most of French dining! The wine by the glass was excellent but slightly chilled which is not my preference for red. Half bottles would be a nice touch but I fined alone as I was on business. Dessert was superb.
Overall a really good restaurant . $185 for one it should be!!
Exceptional experience: very historical building in Old Montreal, small lamp & flowers on each table, stone walls, great ambiance, very vibrant & welcoming from the minute you come in. Perfect for a tête-à-tête dinner, but without being too quiet or stuffy. Cocktails are original, food at our table of 4 was very tasty & well prepared (we loved the duck magret & the bavette), & wine list is high quality. Our server Justine knew her menu so well, took care of us very efficiently, & was very personable without being too intrusive. The host was super welcoming as well.
Barroco was spectacular. After the unfortunate mix-up with our reservation being cancelled on our anniversary, the team reached out & kindly accommodated us for dinner the following night. We were treated to a beautiful three course dinner with wine pairings for each course. Everything was delicious, generously portioned, & thoughtfully prepared. The space itself was beautiful, intimate, & cozy, & Alex & Sarah took wonderful care of us throughout the evening. We are so grateful we gave Barroco a second chance because it was absolutely worth it.

First the atmosphere: It's stylish, cool, comfortable with a great eclectic sound track playing just loud enough so we could still speak comfortably,, with a handsome young clientele, save my wife & & I who are 70 but felt very welcome- the manager personally suggesting we sample the wines before ordering- both wonderful reds, our waitress, actually saying we had made her day. We shared the farm salad with crispy chicken skin bites that added the perfect savory touch to the super fresh greens, fantastic filet mignon, & probably the best lamb I've ever had. We shared the classic French dessert- madeleine's, warm & freshly baked served with an amazing dark chocolate orange/lemon infused truffle with our espressos. The only slight criticism I have is that the bread was served grilled - great idea, but a little burnt which left an aftertaste for hours afterwards. But we definitely plan to return on our next visit to Montreal!
What a divine little restaurant. Had a lovely time having dinner at Barroco, the bar man was fantastic & so attentive. I had the leeks & scallops for entree, omgoodness - delicious! A must have. The flavours in this was something else. & the beef for main cooked to perfection again the flavours in the jus & puree was delicious. Highly recommend this place. Very nice selection of wines & cocktails aswell.
Fourth time in 5 years. We try to go every time we are in Montreal. Nice ambience in a small, old Montreal setting. Exceptional food & wine. Beautiful service as unobtrusive or nice banter as you want it to be. Exceptional at servicing gluten free & food intolerances. We always have fun here for two or a bigger group. They are often full but sometimes you get lucky calling day before or same day.
We had one night in Montreal. Barroco had great reviews & did not disappoint. Three of us had the braised beef & I had a duck breast special. There was not a morsel left. To start I had oysters & others had the scallops. Both were winners. George our server was terrific. It's a little pricey but for one night! Great wine list. I'd go back for sure.
What an amazing little spot. We sat at the bar & Mark took excellent care of us. From cocktails, to appetizers & wine to entres. T'was an exceptional experience with amazing food & service. Would highly recommend.
This place is perfection in every way. It was completely full & so busy but our server never seemed flustered or rushed in any way. She was lovely, provided impeccable service & never missed an opportunity to pour our wine. The food was top notch. I had the beef tartare & poached halibut & my husband had the chicken liver parfait & braised beef. Every bite was amazing. Such a memorable meal in a beautiful setting. You definitely need a reservation & rightly so. Fantastic all round.
