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 :)

One of the best (& not pricy) restaurant in old port. They are innovative with drinks & food, it's simply amazing. It will be the 3rd time I go back...

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.

Nice Peruvian-Italian fusion restaurant in old port. Atmosphere inside was nice, & the restaurant was nicely decorated. Staff was kind & spends awhile going through their seemingly complex menu. I'd say the appetizers here are what make the restaurant special, they were honestly very good. Their brisket main dish was also good, but a bit salty. Overall a nice new spot.

Los platos tienen buen sabor y sazón. Los sabores en cada plato están bien logrados . Las pastas tienen un tamano correcto pero pedimos el tiradito y tenía una cantidad pequenisima de carne y por más de 21 dólares no vale la pena parece una muestra de un plato solo lo recomendaría si quieres una muestra y no un plato completo.

Wow, this place is a must go if you're ever in the area. The pan con chicharon was one of the best sandwiches I've had, if not the best. I loved the lavender mocktail as well + bartender made me an alcohol free shot too. The atmosphere is absolutely amazing & the servers are super sweet.

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.

If you go to one restaurant in old Montreal let it be Capisco. The wine list is impeccable, the cocktails were to die for. Had the Salade Capisco, carbonara, the brisket, & tiramisu. It's been 3 days & I am still dreaming of the food. Truly truly incredible. Also our waiter came over with free NY sour shots with a red wine foam …. I MEANNNNN. Truly so so so soooo goood.

Such a great place in a top MTL location. Don't expect traditional Italian or Peruvian cuisine but a delicious fusion. Each dish I tried was a lovely culinary experience. My favs are the Tiradito, Ceviche & Chicharron sandwich. Def one of my new fav go to restaurants.
