About

Restaurant El Gallo integrates traditional Peruvian culinary techniques with the robust appeal of fire-roasted pizza and premium charcoal-grilled meats. The menu features authentic rotisserie chicken seasoned with a precise blend of Andean spices alongside thin-crust pizzas baked in high-temperature ovens for optimal texture. Patrons select from diverse cuts of beef and poultry prepared over open flames to achieve a distinct charred finish. The interior design emphasizes functional simplicity while maintaining a focus on the open kitchen where primary cooking activities remain visible. Flavor profiles emphasize the balance of savory marinated proteins paired with classic acidic accents derived from fresh citrus and traditional peppers. This establishment provides a straightforward environment tailored for individuals seeking bold seasoning and efficient preparation of both South American specialties and global grill favorites.

La comida tiene buen sabor , pero pedí pescado frito y prácticamente era espinas … el refresco que te ofertan con el combo de pollo asado estaba caliente.

Las papas que vienen con el pollo a la braza, vienen con cascara y es mal visto..... Nuevamente fui al restaurant'El Gallo' y verdaderamente horrible las papas fritas, estan de la misma forma y estan malogradas, las frien y les dan a los comensales y a la clientela que hacen pedidos con anticipacion, SERVICIO A LA CLIENTELA DEBERIA TOMAR EN SERIO Y VERIFICAR TODOS LOS RESTAURANTE EN LA RUE ST.HUBERT.

If you're craving the best Peruvian Pollo a la Brasa in Montreal, look no further than El Gallo on Rue St-Hubert! This gem serves up perfectly marinated, juicy, & tender rotisserie chicken with that signature smoky, crispy skin that keeps you coming back for more. The flavors are authentic & bold-truly a standout in the city's vibrant Peruvian food scene.

Beyond the star chicken, the sides complement the meal perfectly, & the casual, cozy atmosphere makes it a great spot for a relaxed lunch or dinner. Locals rave about the generous portions & fair prices, making El Gallo a fantastic choice whether you're dining in or grabbing takeout.

If you want to experience real Peruvian comfort food done right, El Gallo is a must-visit. Don't miss out on their legendary Pollo a la Brasa-it's hands down the best in town!

Perfect for foodies & anyone looking to spice up their routine with some delicious Peruvian flavors. Highly recommended!

As a Peruvian & a big time picky eater, I can attest to the great quality of this restaurant. The wait time was reasonable which made the service superb. My order was a pollo a la brasa (chicken breast) with salad & fries & it tasted just like home. Will definitely come back soon to try other dishes on the menu.

Ive visited the restaurant for the peruvian roasted chicken "pollo a la brasa" different times here & it was ok! However, this last time I went there it tasted nothing, not like Peruvian roasted chicken, even the seasoning was not there, the oven tasted either, potatoes not as usual either. It seemed like supermarket roasted chicken but expensive.

Ce dernière services ne sont pas le meilleurs..😌 Quand le restaurant est bondé, la nourriture est faite très pressé & pas de goût... J'espère qui prennent en compte, parce que avant la nourriture été très bonne. Siempre he visitado el Gallo, Y podia decir que el pollo asado estaba muy sabroso. La comida este último tiempo o cuando está super lleno, la comida no sabe a nada...

Im half Peruvian & I went there on a sunday, middle afternoon for lunch, everything was delicious, & the staff really friendly. I had the pollo a la brasa (breast) with rice & a chicha morada so so good !! I recommend the chicha morada. The green & yellow sauce are a little spicy.
