Photo of Barranco, a Restaurant in Le Plateau-Mont-Royal

Barranco takes its name from a coastal district in Lima known for colour, noise, and late nights—an energy its owners saw mirrored on Saint-Denis. Opened in 2021, the project began as a fast-casual idea before the cooking pushed it somewhere more deliberate. Today, the menu draws heavily from Peruvian street food—ceviches, salchipapas, anticuchos—treated with a steadier hand and Montréal context rather than nostalgia.

Seafood anchors much of the cooking, especially the ceviche program, where citrus, heat, and texture are allowed to do the heavy lifting. The room leans lively as the week goes on, a shift that mirrors the bar’s focus on pisco-driven cocktails and Latin spirits.
