Always liked this place, since day one. The portion/size is tapas style. Perfect to share & try lots of different dishes.
Only downfall last night, no spring water. Seems a recurrent thing in the montreal food scene. People happily pay 18$ + fpr a cocktail but we cant buy good water… Tap water is gross, filled with chemicals, plus its an easy upsell for the restauranteur. Management should give those tools for the waiting staff to sell. Also, they didnt have any non-alcoholic beer. The staff told me they were in'rupture de stock' -out of stock. Why not order an alternative/ replacement product until they are able to order this product? Again, management, please provide your waiting staff products so they can sell.
The ambiance is great. The waiting staff/bar staff is very good. The food is really really good. If you like Nikkei food, this is one of the best in montreal. Happy to see they are still open after all those years.
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.

Across the board 20/10, ALL

Enjoyed the food & drinks...staff is friendly & the place is cozy. Highly recommend the machu pichu cocktail, the duck anticucho & the chincarron mango salad!!
Everything was nice, from food to service. Favorite restaurant in Montreal so far because this restaurant made us discover how delicious & special peruvian cuisine is, it feels surprisingly fresh & light, it actually reminds me more of Asian food than what I usually expect from American cuisines. Plus the ambiance is vivid & chill, highly recommend.
This place kicked ass. Had the Classiqe Ceviche & it was mind blowing. Made right in front of you. The chef was an artist. All the other severs really seemed to enjoy their jobs. I highly recommend.
