Review Summary

Overall, El Gallo attracts praise for bold Peruvian flavors, generous portions, and solid value, with frequent nods to Pollo a la Brasa, ceviche mixto, and accompanying sides like fries and a fresh salad. The roasted chicken is often described as juicy and well seasoned, and the bread and crispy fries are noted as standout touches that add to the meal. Service is generally friendly and attentive in many visits, while a few reviews point to inconsistent preparation, hygiene concerns, and occasional gaps in table care. Takeout is commonly praised for freshness and tasty dishes, and portions can be large enough for sharing, reinforcing El Gallo as a reliable option for Peruvian comfort food. A few comments call for improvements in consistency and upkeep, but the overall impression is of a lively spot that delivers flavorful food and generous portions at approachable prices.

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!

I had Jalea, it's a pretty small portion compared to other Peruvian restaurants on the street.

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.

Most people say that food is just something to be eaten but I think otherwise. I think it's something to be cherished & embed. I took one bite of the chicken I knew I had to write this review the second it touched my taste buds it felt like being born again. I've never eaten anything as majestic as that chicken I'm normally vegan but that chicken made me rethink my entire life. Safe to say I would eat here again

Super bon ceviche & poulet à la braise

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.

224-10-10 Le sandwich au poulet était délicieux, mais l'entrée de calmars frits (10 morceaux) à 18$ était vraiment chère, & ils n'étaient pas bon. Malgré être assis au bar, le service était minimal. Le strict nécessaire.
