We loved the dinner at Capisco! We were a group of six adult friends. The food was creative & interesting. The waitress was enthusiastic & attentive. The prices quite reasonable. We would definitely return.

Surprised that not that many ppl seem to know this place! Maybe it's new? Great food, great ambiance, would easily go on my top 5 list in Montreal. Everything we ordered was good, pleasant to look at & not boring. It's just a meal that soothes your mind with vibrant colors, nice decor & plating, & new but comforting flavours that amazes your palates. I know it's not words that usually go together, but they do. The tiramisu was also good.

J'ai passé une excellente soirée avec une amie assise au bar. Le service était impeccable & la nourriture vraiment intéressante. J'adore la nourriture péruvienne traditionnelle & ce restaurant offre une fusion italien x peruvien qui est à découvrir.

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!

Loved the vibe. 80s music, & fabulous food. Start with the frito mixto & the brisquet lomosaltado is out of this world. Amazing!!!

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)

Bon cocktail, équipe serviable malgré l absence d ambiance.. Quand à l adition ils nous ont fait payer deux fois le pourboire.. Musique inappropriée.. On a fini au tiradito ou notre soirée s est terminée sur une bonne note.
