We chose Barroco for our splurge night dinner in Montreal. The restaurant is beautiful. Dimly lit, with candles everywhere. I especially loved the large, open windows which made it feel like we were dining outside.
We ordered the cranberry drinks, which were mixed to perfection. I tried the mediterranean branzini which I can't recommend highly enough. The fish was flavorful and topped with roasted nuts. I was starved so I ordered the risotto on the side. I'm glad I did, because the portion size was on the smaller side.
My date tried the lamb chops along with the mashed potatoes. Holy amazing! The food was so good, we finished each and every last morsel - which is wonderful, but sadly left no room for dessert. I did look through the dessert menu though, and it was to-die-for!
I'll be back here next time I visit Montreal!
