I got the salmon tartare & vegetarian ceviche & both were incredibly flavored & textured. Portions were perfectly sized & prices were reasonable. The staff was lovely & the environment is great too. I'd eat here again.
Souper en terrasse un soir de semaine, en compagnie de ma fille adulte. Service attentionné & sympathique, comportant de belles suggestions. L'ambiance en terrasse est un peu moins spéciale qu'en restaurant d'où les 4 étoiles, par contre le niveau sonore plus acceptable pour mon goût. Nous avons dégusté 5 plats pour 2 ce qui était largement suffisant. Coup de coeur pour le ceviche & le tiradito de saumon & jolie découverte avec le papa rellena.

Food was awesome & delicious specially the papa rellena & ceviche. The empanada wasn't really fitting the name. Service was pretty good & the long communal table was nice as we socialized a bit with the family next to us
J'adore ce restaurant! Ça fait 6-7 fois que j'y vais, je rêve du ceviche quand ça fait trop longtemps que je n'y suis pas allée. J'ai découvert la tiradito de saumon hier que je n'avais jamais essayé, c'est succulent aussi. Tout est bon, j'ai jamais été déçue. Le staff est gentil & attentionné. La sélection de vin est très bonne, & j'aime les cocktails.
Je recommande ce resto sans hésiter! :) trendy sans être prétentieux, bon rapport qualité-prix.
We had such high hopes for Tiradito, 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.
The terrasse was opne to the first really comfortable day of the year. I had no idea what to expect, but the food was ABSOLUTELY fantastic. Had the Pollo, the squid & the Ceviche. The pollo was well fried, not over fried, moist, & the sauce - delicious! The Squid... OH MY it was my favourite. Not chewy AT ALL, & cooked to a way where there was a slight crisp, paired with a slightly sweet purée. & the ceviche, WHAT A SURPRISE! The fish itself was super fresh, & there was like different types of corn. On their own there was this big corn type of vegetable that wasn't that great, but with a mouthful of all the ingredients together - so savory & with plenty of textures.
The idea is you choose several plates & share.
It was a fantastic dining experience for me, laid back but still with a almost gastronomy experience. The price of the plates themselves was very accessible (it was drinks for us that took a part of the bill ;) )
We were seated at the bar which ii the central piece, & people were milling about.
The decor is fantastic - not overdone, a bit on the luxe side (velvet cushioned seating) but not overly.
Really, really glad I tried here (I was here for work).
Tiradito is celebrating its 10th anniversary this year, & it's easy to understand how it has become one of Montreal's most beloved Peruvian destinations. The restaurant blends the spirit of a lively tapas bar with the finesse of contemporary gastronomy, all guided by Executive Chef Marcel Larrea, who delivers an explosion of flavors with every dish.
The concept is distinctive: no tables, only counters wrapping around the room. It creates a vibrant, social atmosphere where the energy of the kitchen becomes part of the experience.
🍽? 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.
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!
