Excellent, tender, & well spiced Portugese chicken. Great service, lovely ambiance, & fair prices. I miss seeing these family owned businesses who are pleased to provide such a heartwarming experience for their customers. Thank you. José & Ricardo. You have my vote guys. We will return very soon. Happy Holidays!
Great food! All the things you want in a big portuguese meal. Shared plate among 4 adults & loved the chorizo + ribs that came with the delicious chicken. Drinks were totally reasonable, the service was friendly, quick & super kind. Bathrooms were clean & parking was easy. Great resto! Wanna go back every week, but too far from home.

While heading to pick up chicken at another spot, I stumbled upon this hidden gem on Ontario Street by chance. A quick stop at a red light that led me to see this restaurant, & I decided to take some chicken home. It was absolutely delicious! Intrigued, I returned later with a friend for dinner, & we were both impressed. The staff was incredibly friendly & welcoming, & the service was exceptional. The food was outstanding, & the atmosphere was warm & inviting. I highly recommend this restaurant-it's truly a wonderful find!
Fastest service ever with amazing food & wonderful service. Recommend reserving as it gets quite busy. Excellent atmosphere & shockingly good prices for the quality & quantity of food.
My friend & I went here after being recommended by another friend! The food & service were not bad! The taste of the cleaning liquid that entered my mouth while I was eating the food! While the customers were eating, they were cleaning the floor by spraying the cleaning liquid! I thought it was only for a moment, but they continued to spray the cleaning spray & clean for about 30 minutes! We ate our food hastily & left! The taste & smell in my mouth, as if I had inhaled the cleaning liquid, lingered in my nose for about an hour! It was a terrible lunch! I don't understand how you can sweep the floor with a broom while the customer is eating.
Nous y sommes allés le 3 novembre pm Les employés sont très sympathiques & aussi très charmants...Sandra, ainsi que sa collègue de travail sont une grande source d'invitation à la clientèle avec leurs merveilleux sourires... Gentille , courtoisie amabilité; Je me sens chez moi en famille avec ce resto de quartier. Je mange assez régulièrement dans les restos & celui là est assez dur à battre pour ses employés courtois & pourtant j'ai un gros sens de la critique envers certains restaurants à Montréal. Mes invités aujourd'hui ont tous été comblés par ce resto... J'ose espérer que ça perdurera. Bravo à vous tous & je vous souhaite un autre 17è années de uccès & de prospérité... Georges Juneau, qui se lave toujours les mains avant les repas🤙🤙🤙👍👍👍👍 Au plaisir!
Decided to try this place from a friends recommendation. The resto was pretty calm for sunday lunch. We opted for the grilled octopus plate that comes with salad, rice & potatoes. We also got the Portuguese chicken & rib combo plate that comes with fries & salad. To finish our meal off we ordered Portuguese egg tarts. Everything was DELICIOUS!!! All the meats were perfectly grilled & seasoned & had a nice charcoal flavour. The portions were also GENEROUS & the price was very reasonable. Would definitely recommend both dishes! Will be for sure coming back again!
