Barranco, Peruvian restaurant in Plateau-Mont-Royal, Montreal, Canada
Barranco is a Peruvian restaurant on Saint-Denis Street in the Plateau-Mont-Royal neighborhood of Montreal. The menu features ceviche, small sharing plates, gourmet burgers, and a bar focused on pisco-based cocktails alongside a selection of imported wines.
The restaurant opened in April 2021 and was first conceived as a casual spot serving simple Peruvian food. After the owners tasted the chef's ceviche, they shifted toward a more refined menu that kept the same relaxed spirit.
The restaurant takes its name from a neighborhood in Lima known for its street art and nightlife. On weekends, DJs play and the place takes on a festive mood that reflects the spirit of its Peruvian namesake.
The restaurant sits on Saint-Denis Street, easy to reach on foot or by public transit from most parts of Montreal. Reservations are a good idea for weekend evenings, as the place tends to fill up quickly.
The bar program is led by a mixologist who puts spicy mango and other unexpected ingredients into pisco-based drinks, turning the classic pisco sour into something new. The weekend brunch also features a bottomless mimosa option alongside poached eggs prepared in a Peruvian style.
