| - When in Montreal craving Peruvian food, we happened to find Chicho's. About 3 miles from downtown we made the drive and it was on a busy street in the middle of Saint-Laurent boulevard.
We came around noon, it was completely empty with only one young girl as our server. She came over, greeted us, was sweet and respectable although, I don't think she spoke much English. I noticed this because whenever my boyfriend spoke in English she would kinda get confused and reply in Spanish. It wasn't a problem because we both speak it, we ended up just speaking to her in Spanish for the rest of the visit. But, this probably wouldn't be so favorable for someone who cannot speak or understand Spanish.
Prices are a little on the pricy side. I don't think I'd make this place a regular spot for that reason, but from my experience of what I specifically ordered it was a huge portion.
"La Ronda Marina Calamar"- this plate was 30$ and more than enough for two people. If you know me by now you know I eat a lot even though I'm small, I am really greedy and rarely can share food because I eat just about everything. But, in all seriousness, this plate was actually shareable and still had me full by the time I left. It brought ceviche, chicharron de calamar and arroz con mariscos. THE CEVICHE THOUGH. Simply amazing. Beyond flavorful and one of the best ceviches I have ever had. The seafood rice also hit the spot. I was impressed with everything and seriously craved more the following day.
I definitely would recommend this restaurant if you are in the area and want to try some bomb ceviche!
