The food was unique & absolutely delicious, with a distinct point of view that really stood out. The atmosphere & decor were beautifully executed-thoughtful, original, & very tasteful. The only small note would be the lighting, which could be slightly warmer to enhance the overall ambiance.

Un de meilleur restaurant a Montréal, La nourriture excellent, une variété de produits fresh, des assiettes uniques a Montréal! L'ambiance chaleureuse sois dans la barre au a table, le service amical & les prix plus que raisonnables, très bon choix!
La nourriture était bien élaborée - les saveurs sont bien maîtrisées & on sent la qualité dans l'assiette. Le ceviche en particulier était excellent.
Malheureusement, l'expérience de service a un peu terni le tout. La serveuse semblait plutôt blasée & venait très rarement nous voir, même si le restaurant était pratiquement vide. On aurait aussi apprécié un peu plus de flexibilité : nous voulions simplement commander une portion & demie de carbonara pour la partager à deux, mais cela n'a pas été possible.
Petit bémol également pour le gâteau au chocolat, qui est assez décevant - un dessert dont le goût s'efface presque aussitôt de la mémoire.
Un endroit avec beaucoup de potentiel côté cuisine, mais où le service & certains détails pourraient être améliorés pour rendre l'expérience à la hauteur des plats.
Have nothing but glowing things to say about this place after stumbling upon it during a short work trip. Drinks were excellent, as was the food. Ambience was really great as well. Almost went here a second night in a row. Didn't, & regretted it. Will be coming back next time I'm in Montreal.
If you haven't tried peruvian cuisine & specially fusion with Italian . Its a must try spot ! Personally I loved everything about this place
The ambience,the food & the service is always great
The staff is very kind & polite
The cocktails are top notch .
I warmly suggest it to anyone
Capisco's food is a'must-try'! While the food & service were stellar, sadly, the atmosphere, an integral part of the dining experience that many restaurants overlook, was lacking. Capisco's setup is more reminiscent of a coffee shop than of a high-end restaurant; don't expect any privacy.
Nous avons été plus tôt ce soir au restaurant & nous sommes malheureusement déçus de l'expérience. J'ai réservé 1 mois à l'avance, lorsque arrivé sur place on nous attribue une table qui semble presque improvisée sur un coin devant la porte d'entrée. Je demande à la serveuse avant de débuter s'il es possible de changer de table car toutes les tables sont libres. On me répond bêtement qu'il n'est pas possible.Les entrées étaient bonnes mais les plats principaux étaient tres huileux & lourd. L'endroit est chaleureux mais le prix & le service n'étaient pas à la hauteur.
Came here for MTL à la Table & tried their table d'hôte, which was offered at a very reasonable price. The food was excellent, with the sandwich being the standout-absolutely delicious & packed with flavour. The restaurant itself is such a charming little spot, cozy & inviting, & I was genuinely surprised by how generous the portions were for the price. It felt like great value all around. I would honestly come back just for that sandwich alone & can't wait to return!
