Just walking through the old port, stopped in with no expectations but couldn't
have been more surprised by the incredible experience I had being served by…I believe her name was Mia.
Her &, who I think was the manager (guy with a moustache) made for such an unexpectedly amazing experience.
Will be back!

J'ai voulu y aller plusieurs fois... mais il n'y a pas d'option vegan... j'espère qu'un jour le menu sera adapté pour toustes :)

Easily the worst dining experience I've had in Montreal. The restaurant was almost empty & the service was still nonexistent. My vegetables took 40 minutes, & when they finally arrived they were drenched in so much oil that there was a literal puddle at the bottom of the bowl. Completely inedible.
The waitress (short blonde hair) never checked on me once, I had to chase her down for everything. To make it worse, I watched her take a shot at the bar right as I sat down, which honestly explains a lot. When I sent the dish back, she cleared all my plates, including my drink, & then disappeared for 20 minutes. I actually had to start getting ready to leave before she finally noticed me & brought the bill.
Terrible food, even worse service. There's a reason this place is empty. Save yourself the disappointment.

Came for an early dinner. Had a mix of small plate dishes plus soup & pork sandwich. Just wow. What a pleasant surprise. Top notch whiskey cocktail too.
They call themselves an Italo-Peruvian restaurant but I see a French influence too.

We booked the 3 courses experience & enjoyed all of them. The non-alcoholic pairing was excellent & a great option. The attentiveness of the staff is noteworthy.

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.

Des serveuses aux petits soins qui savent vous donner des conseils précis sur une cuisine savoureuse & généreuse aux alliances plutôt subtiles. Très belle découverte loin des multiples restaurants à poutine & autres pizzas.

Étant une grande amatrice du poisson je me suis bien régalé avec ces délicieux plats, la star était la poulpe très bien complémenter avec la foccacia qui était juste parfaite j'étais déçu de ne pas trouver le tiradito de pétoncle sur le menu mais ça sera pour une autre fois.

Enjoyed my dinner with friends at Capisco. It has a nice ambience & not too noisy so you can have a nice conversation. The food was delicious. I was pleasantly surprise that the cocktails were also amazing. Would be coming back again for another visit.

Venus par hasard une excellente decouverte !! Plats delicieux, accueil sympa, n'hesitez pas c'est top
Anthony
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.
