Absolutely delicious! The food was tasty & flavorful, but pricey for the appetizers. The staff was caring. They have music, tv screens & nice decor. Next time we'll try the drinks!
Très belle découverte culinaire. Tout à fait délicieux. Le service était bien. Personnel souriant & accueillant malgré la difficulté linguistique. Ce fût un bon moment
Delicious food, great portions, fantastic service & atmosphere! We got the steak fried rice & the cheese fettuccini with steak & they were both super tasty & worth the price (~30$) Will definitely return!
Cuisine Péruvienne authentique tellement savoureuse & de généreuses portions ! J'espère qu'il ne vont jamais enlever les brochettes de anticuchos cest rare à trouver & ils sont délicieuses !! & sans oublier la Margaritas qui était WoW. Très hâte d'y retourne
TL:DR, it's okay but try it for yourself. I have read several reviews before dinning-in twice & they are accurate: this is N0T & Authentic Peruvian cuisine! For an authentic plate from Perú there's are several others establishments on the same street & nearby. However the rest is better, for the most; staff is very friendly, the Causa cón Pulpo is a must try, the Squid Fettuccini is also a delice (despite it not being traditional Peruvian dish) the Papa à la Huancaina sauce is on top, but there is no Aji de Gallina on the menu (a very popular Peruvian dish!) the Lomo Saltado is stirred on a Wok as opposed to the traditional large pan stir fry (salteado), the waiting time is very long (about 30min even for a starter & we were not served at the same time bit times I went), we received the exact same plates but another table was complaining that within their three Squid Causa: one was missing the Peruvian corn, & another had double the Squid seafood which warrant the uneven quantity of food served or omissions in others reviews thereof. Around 9h38 pm the kitchen did not take any new orders because after 10pm it is drinking only & Latino Hip Hop music too loud for the small restaurant. Free tap water also stops after 10pm I returned during the Final of COPA America 2024, the ambiance was great, the Causa & Papas were great, the Pisco Sour was a disaster: it was colorless & tasted like water, felt like a rob for $14+tax & tips. I was not allowed for an alfajores dessert after 10pm because the kitchen closed, even if it is stashed in a cookie jar. Watching a sports over there event is entertaining.
We went on a gorgeous day & took full advantage of their beautiful, large outdoor area. There's nothing like having a drink on a terrasse in the sun, & with a large drink menu of signature cocktails, classic cocktails, wine, beer, & non-alcoholic beverages, we definitely had a great time. We also enjoyed the comfortable & festively decorated interior, with murals that capture the essence of the restaurant. The creatively & exquisitely prepared dishes we selected were all aesthetically pleasing & created a rush of tastebud-stimulating flavors. The ceviche, in particular, is highly recommended. Special thanks to our extremely friendly, helpful, & patient waitress-an example of exceptional service.
Nous avons fait un voyage gastronomique à cette place. Une explosion de saveurs. Des recettes typiques & bien présentées. Le ceviche fondait dans la bouche. L'accueil était cordial.Tout simplement WOW!
Je suis allée avec ma fille & nous avons passé la meilleure expérience. La nourriture est extraordinairement bonne surtout celle faite par la chef Lorena Lucana. Je n'ai jamais goûté dans tout Montréal un riz aux fruits de mer aussi identique à celui du Pérou. La chef est 100% péruvienne. Quand je l'ai appelé pour la féliciter elle est venue cordialement nous dire qu'elle respecte très bien la recette & que ses ingrédients sont 100% péruviens. Mes Félicitations pour la chef Lorena Lucana & à tous les employés de Tenorio's. Je recommande très fortement!
Mon mari & moi étions de sorti pour une « date » & nous avons souper sur leur terrasse. Le délai pour la nourriture a été plus que raisonnable & notre serveuse Manuela fut extrêmement à l'écoute. Elle nous a bien conseillé & a été très agréable. Nous recommandons pour sur leur cuisine incroyable.
