Je vais régulièrement à cet excellent restaurant portugais. La cuisine est raffinée, le service chaleureux & l'ambiance élégante. Un incontournable des bonnes tables du boulevard St Laurent!

Accueil chaleureux & attentionné. Le riz aux fruits de mer & la pieuvre que nous avions choisis étaient tout simplement excellent. Comme nous connaissons peu les vins portugais, le propriétaire a choisi le vin pour nous qui s'harmonisait parfaitement avec nos plats. L'ambiance est très sympathique & nous avons vraiment appréciés notre soirée chez Alda, c'est pourquoi nous lui accordons un 4.5.
Went out for a wonderful meal & had a great experience. Service was excellent & meal was incredible. Everything was perfect. Highly recommend the restaurant.

J'ai été très agréablement surpris par ce restaurant. Les prix des plats & des tables d'hotes était réellement très raisonnable pour la qualité de la nouriture.
Le meilleur point de notre expérience as été le service sans faille par les serveurs d'expérience qui sont très sympathique. J'y retoune c'est certain.
We went to Aldea 3 weeks ago for our 20th wedding anniversary & it was SPECTACULAR!!!! The food, the ambiance, the service.... WOW!!! My husband had the table d'hôte. He chose the Lisbon shrimp (garlic) & filet mignon with half a lobster & I had the same entree of shrimp but with the filet mignon cooked on a stone..... My mouth still waters today just thinking about it!!! dessert was outstanding!!! Our waiter Luis was WONDERFUL!!!! Will definitely go back. We only have nice things to say about this place!!! Congratulations Aldea for a job well done!!!
