We visited this restaurant based on a recommendation & never expected to eat so well. The concept is a perfect blend of Peruvian & Italian cuisine, & every dish we tried was even better than the last.
Beyond the amazing food, the service was outstanding. The entire staff was attentive & welcoming, but we would especially like to thank Mia, who took wonderful care of us. We asked for her recommendations, & every single one was a hit.
This place has definitely become one of our favorite restaurants in Montreal. It was an experience that exceeded our expectations, & we highly recommend it. We will definitely be back!
10/10 experience. We loved the food, drinks & the staff. I would highly recommend the aji gallina & the caprese. We sat at the bar & our experience was made by our great bartender. Couldn't recommend enough if you're looking for a great date night spot

Hands down, one of the best all-around meals & now one of my favorites restaurants. Ordered the amor y fresca drink, homemade focaccia, fritto mixto - all of which were equally amazing. But the star of the show was the brisket lomo saltado - it was absolutely, out of this world. I would absolutely come back & recommend to anyone visiting!
Our second night in Montreal & went here with a large party (two couples, 3 kids). Warm, inviting atmosphere. Great service throughout, from drinks, to starters to mains & dessert. Almost everything was delicious & we tried a broad range. The ceviche, verdura mix & frito mixto starters were amazing - particularly the verdura. I had the pan con chicharon sandwich which I had to gobble down it was so good. My wife had the scallops & loved them. But the pièce de résistance was the lasagna which is large (they warn you!) & we all pitched in to devour. Highly recommend Capisco, wonderful experience in every regard.
We were a group of three couples out for a fun dinner. & Capisco was the perfect place. We had a reservation for 7:30 & only left towards 11:30, the food the service & the ambiance contributed greatly to an evening that flew by! The noise level was very moderate, & the background music was not overwhelming so that we could all converse with ease at our table. Peruvian cuisine is so distinctive in its flavours & colours & all of the courses that we had in the tasting menu/dégustation at the selection of the chef were fantastic! Definitely coming back! Highly recommend!
Amazing experience, high quality food full of unique flavors & tasty treats, Peruvian & Italian food is a great fusion, would highly recommend the chicharon sandwich, ouf that's good (sorry no pics, ate it too quick) Tiramisu was huge, rich & delicious.
Une ambiance des années 80 avec une cuisine qui fusionne des plats péruviens à des accents italiens. Pour deux personnes, nous avons pris 2 entrées, un grand plat & un dessert, ce qui fut suffisant. Je recommande le Capisco!
We had dinner at Capisco in old port Montreal. The food was amazing . The ceviches were very fresh & tasty.we highly recommend the Arroz Con Mariscos for main course. Meg took care of us & her service was excellent.
