🍽? The Food
We sampled a selection of classics - ceviche, causa, chicharrón, yuca fries, cocktails & pisco.
Each plate arrives like a piece of art: visually stunning, meticulously composed, & bursting with color. & the best part is that the taste fully lives up to the presentation.
Ceviche: a masterclass in balance. The fish is silky & tender, contrasted by the crunch of the cancha corn, creating a refined interplay of textures.
Causa: delicate & refreshing, with layers that reveal themselves gradually on the palate.
Chicharrón: crisp, generous, & deeply satisfying, elevated by the chef's Peruvian touch.
Yuca fries: a more elegant & wholesome alternative to traditional fries, with a dense yet soft interior.
Cocktails & pisco: expertly crafted, aromatic, & transporting - the kind of drinks that make you feel like you're sitting somewhere tropical by the sea.
At several moments, the flavors were so bright & evocative that I genuinely felt transported far from downtown Montreal.
🌟 Ambiance & Service
The space is trendy, stylish, & perfect for impressing a friend, colleague, or date. The service is warm & efficient.
💸 Value
For such a central location, the ambiance, & the level of culinary execution, the prices are surprisingly reasonable. You leave feeling like you've experienced something special without the bill becoming excessive.
Bottom line: Tiradito remains one of Montreal's standout ambassadors of Peruvian cuisine. A must?visit for anyone looking to travel through flavor without leaving the city. This place has become one of our top restaurant spots in this city. Highly recommended.
A hidden gem in downtown Montreal. Entrance is obscured by purple curtains. Atmosphere was that of a lively bar. Spanish music playing & lots of happy locals. Food was excellent. Portions are on the smaller side, but tasty. Recommend trying their cocktail specialties, such as the traditional Pisco sour. Goes very well with the fried chicken traditional dish. They use habanero peppers generously, so the dishes are quite spicy. Seating are all stools. Walk-ins are welcome but reservations are recommended for the best spots by the windows.

This place was highly recommended & it did not disappoint! Lots of amazing tapas to try. All bar seating so you are in the action & it is fun! The bartenders/servers had fantastic suggestions. Best ceviche! You must go!
We had such high hopes for Tirdito, our experience was a bit of a mixed bag.
Seating is done as bar tables, which whilst it gives a great view of your cocktails being made, isn't for everyone.
Our cocktails were prompt & tasty.
Dishes were brought out one at a time, hot first & then cold.
The octopus & duck dishes were delicious, & the best part of our meal. The ceviche was oddly served in a bowl, the fish was a little too chunky to eat delicately & the accompaniments didn't seem to pair well. The crispy prawns were well overcooked, as being wrapped in filo, the pastry took longer to fry than the prawns did.
A couple of times during service, we were handed dishes that we hadn't ordered, even though the restaurant only had a handful of tables & it took 4 attempts to be given our correct bill.
Good vibe, food & wine in tapas style. If you would like to sit at the bar or better seating for borh dmall & big groups, you need to make a reservation in advance. Otherwise, you sit near the wall.
Ambiance enflammée. Bon concept avec les sièges autour du bar & les ceviches fait devant nous. Nous avons apprécié la nourriture, le ceviche était excellent.
Service lent dès l'accueil. Il a fallu attendre que notre serveuse termine ses shooters avec un client avant de pouvoir commander nos cocktails & nos plats. Nous avons apprécié que nos plats soient livrés par les cuisiniers, qui étaient tous sympas & nous ont expliqué les plats, un beau plus!

Une incroyable expérience péruvienne! Tout se passe autour du bar, musique latino, ambiance chaude & feutrée, les cocktails sont fabuleux & les plats proposés sont savoureux!
Super soirée! Nous avons adorés!
We had a great time here! The bar is really nicely decorated, great atmosphere yet not too loud & was spacious enough. Our server, Loic, was also very friendly & made it a great experience for us!
We tried this bar, 2 weeks ago with friends after work & I loved it. Great selection of Mocktails & cocktails. The tapas options are really good too! (Options for vegetarian as well)
Price wise is a bit high but totally worth a try. I recommend that you reserve in advance.

Great casual Peruvian spot
The food is delicious & beautifully presented, everything we tried was super flavorful & fresh
The staff is very friendly & welcoming.
The place also has a great vibe. Stylish but not pretentious, & perfect for a casual dinner sitting at the bar, sharing a few plates. Definitely a great spot for Peruvian food
P.S. They also have Inca Kola, which was such a fun surprise!
Ils s'affichent comme un bar mais on doit quitter après 2 heures, je ne comprends pas le concept… surtout qu'après avoir insisté on a pu rester mais last call une heure plus tard!!!! La place s'est vidée on ne se demande pas pourquoi.
Excellents plats péruviens & délicieux cocktails ! Service sympathique & efficace ! La salle est cependant étrangement conçue : peu de tables & cela se passe davantage autour d'un énorme bar.

Un classique de la restauration Montréalaise depuis longtemps & c'est toujours aussi bon. Service impeccable. Les places au bar sont super dynamiques. Vraiment une belle ambiance & une bien belle soirée à deux.
There is only bar seating here & it's tight, not very comfortable. Food was ok, we enjoyed the meat & potato thing & the empanadas. Chicken dumplings were ok. Duck was fatty, we both felt sick after eating it. Service was ok, hard to get another drink though the pisco sours were delicious!
J'adore aller manger dans ce beau & bon restaurant. L'ambiance est au top, la bouffe juste parfaite & le pisco sour sublime. Une ambiance avec avec table style bar tabouret haut. La pieuvre & le poulet frit ouf juste trop bon
La nourriture était excellente, les employés sympathiques, mon seul bémol est le confort. Assis au bar près de l'entrée, je me suis plusieurs fois fait accrocher par les gens qui circulaient derrière moi. C'est désagréable, un passage plus large serait bénéfique.
