Épatez par la cuisine de ce resto portugais! C'était excellent & à l'image de mon expérience au Portugal... mais ici à Montréal!
J'ai mis 3/5 étoiles à'Service' : notre serveur était respectueux, attentif à nos besoins & très accueillant. Mais, à la fin de notre repas, un autre serveur (?) est venu desservir & nous a fait sentir qu'on devait quitter car il y avait de l'attente à la porte... pourtant notre serveur nous avait bien dit de prendre notre temps... disons que ça nous a laissé un goût amer du service. Attention à cet effet: une seule personne peut laisser une trace négative juste avant notre départ même si l'expérience était très positive durant le repas!

Pour une date en tête à tête avant un show au Lion d'or. Service A one, staff extra gentil & efficace. Le poulet portugais à partager est super & la pieuvre était super bonne. Un beau resto plein de vie & d'ambiance, bouffe extra & staff génial!
Quel beau & bon restaurant à découvrir. L'ambiance est extraordinaire, les repas à partager très très accessibles, & tellement délicieux. C'est un gros WoW!
Cozy space with good food. The servers were very friendly & the food was delicious. The place was packed on a Sunday evening, we had to wait a little while to be seated even with a reservation. We tried the Portuguese steak & grill #1 & the Portuguese egg tarts. Big portions & seasoned well. Their house sauce goes very well with the food. Would like to visit again to try other items.
Flavoured food, great service & nice vibe. Glad to see a restaurant is keeping their quality for almost 20 years. Well deserved & wish you longer success.
Une ambiance chaleureuse, de la nourriture de royauté, un staff dynamique & des propriétaires avenants. Quoi de mieux pour relaxer après une dure journée de travail
Favourite Portuguese chicken on Ontario street. Family run restaurant, been there for more than a decade, it's the place you go with family, friends, dates & even after church!
I only had experience through über eat, never been in their restaurant. I think it's one of the best Portuguese charcoal grilled chicken 🍗 in Montreal. Keep in mind though if you choose delivery they regularly forget items in the order like soda, natas or the salad side dishe. Of course uber refund but very frustrating still.
