Capisco delivers a delightful Italo-Peruvian fusion that makes bold flavors feel approachable, with standout dishes like ceviche, lasagna, brisket lomosaltado and a variety of shared plates that showcase both traditions. The atmosphere mixes cozy, retro charm with a lively Old Montreal vibe, and the cocktails are frequently praised for creativity and balance. Service is consistently friendly and attentive, guiding guests through a diverse menu and ensuring drinks and courses arrive with care. Portions are generous and the overall value is appreciated, though a few busy nights may bring slower service or signature items being sold out. This combination of inventive cooking, pleasing presentation, and welcoming hospitality tends to leave guests eager to return and explore more of the menu.
Une superbe découverte, fusion péruvienne & italienne est parfaitement maîtrisée.Le ceviche est incroyable, sûrement un des meilleurs en ville. Tout était super bon, & le service vraiment top.
Je recommande sans hésiter!
I came here to celebrate my official birthday, & I couldn't have picked a better spot!
The ambiance was warm & inviting, the food was absolutely delicious, & the service was top-notch-friendly & made me feel genuinely welcomed. It truly made the celebration special.
Great Atmosphere with even even greater food! The Peru/Italian fusion is a work of magic. From the look of the restaurant to the waiters & dishes everything was excellent. Highly recommend.
Amazing Food! We had the brisket & it was melting in our mouths. Ambiance is great, the decor is very aesthetically pleasing. Overall great experience. Would recommend!
Very interesting & delicious peruvian/italian dishes in Montreal! I tried the capelottis of aji de gallina in huancaina sauce, the recommendation of the chef, the arancinis of duck & huancaina sauce, some lucuma ice cream & the classic pisco sour, it does not appear in the menu but just ask in the bar & also a passion fruit pisco sour! Cozy & welcoming environment & attentive staff, totally recommended spot! Just 4 stars because as a peruvian, I like bigger portions of food 😅

Excellente soirée en famille au Capisco. La nourriture est sublime. L'accueil de Sébastien est impeccable & chaleureux. Nous y retournerons volontiers & nous le recommandons sans hésiter!
Expérience gustative exceptionnelle! Produits de qualité & service de haut niveau. Mes compliments à l'équipe en cuisine.
Top quality food & cocktails!
I tried the cocktail of the month (I highly recommand it). The bartenders (Joseph & Thierry) create unique flavour mix, with a twist of creativity, like I have never seen before. They are really dedicated & professional. It was an amazing experience overall! À bientôt :)
The best find on Saint Paul. Chef Marcel Larea has done it again with a beautifully designed space, & great ambiance.More importantly, the food is remarkable with flavours. You can close your eyes & immerse in the taste. When at the restaurant, there is a good chance you will see the chef around. He truly cares & it shows on every little detail & in the quality of service. It is priced for a regular night out, but gives you the feeling that you have just been on an exclusive luxury vacation. Highly recommended!
We had a great experience in this new restaurant! At first I was skeptic of a fusion between Peruvian & Italian food, but I must admit they achieve it perfectly & very creatively too; the Tiradito Capresse is a great proof of that. They also have some traditional Peruvian dishes like Pan Con Chicharrón which I cannot recommend enough.
Something else that pleased me a lot is that although it is around the same price point as Tiradito, I found the servings to be much more generous here. You can easily order for 2 people with $100 (not accounting for drinks)

The arroz con pato arrancini were absolutely amazing. The arroz con pato could be an entire main dish, it was that good. The juancaina that acompanied it was also excellent. We tried the carbonara al aji amarillo & the brisket lomo saltado with juancaina gnocci, both were great (the brisket was perhaps a bit over salted to our taste, but still amazing). The service was excellent! Highly recommended.
Nous étions une tablée de 7 personnes afin de fêter deux anniversaires. Nous avons donné carte blanche au chef. Ce fut un pur délice! Meilleur repas que j'ai mangé à vie & mon avis était partagé. L'ambiance, le personnel attentionné & efficace. Je recommande fortement ce restaurant, ne serait-ce que pour vivre une expérience culinaire hors du commun.
Nous y sommes allés samedi passé , le resto est neuf & chic , personnel sympathique ( merci à Sasha pour ses nombreuses recommandations) , franchement tout les plats étaient savoureux ! Très belle expérience culinaire ! Nous y retournerons !
Excellente cuisine italienne revisitée avec la cuisine péruvienne. Mélange fin & subtil, très bien équilibré. Le service est personnalisé & les suggestions sont de bons propos. Une adresse à recommander pour son originalité & sa finesse.
The dishes were delicious, an explosion of authentic flavors with high-quality ingredients. Each bite transports you to the heart of Peru, elevated by a modern touch. The service was impeccable-attentive, quick, & friendly, with beautifully presented dishes. I highly recommend Capisco to anyone looking for an authentic & refined culinary experience!
