Review Summary

Aquinta is widely regarded as a standout neighborhood destination in Montreal, frequently praised for its authentic, charcoal-grilled Portuguese cuisine, particularly the succulent chicken, tender ribs, and expertly prepared octopus. Diners consistently highlight the generous portion sizes, exceptional value for money, and a warm, inviting atmosphere that makes it a favorite for families and social gatherings. While the vast majority of experiences are positive, with guests often commending the friendly and efficient staff, some visitors have noted occasional challenges regarding noise levels, limited space, or instances of being rushed during peak hours. Despite these minor inconsistencies, the restaurant maintains a loyal following, with many patrons returning repeatedly for the high-quality food, professional service, and overall festive vibe.

Restaurant de quartier à découvrir. On y retourne sans hésiter. La nourriture est savoureuse à souhait, ce à quoi on s'attend d'une cuisine portugaise. Cuisson sur charbon! Les prix des consommations & de la nourriture sont très raisonnables. Pour le grand plaisir des amateurs de sports, des téléviseurs sont allumés à la joute du jour.
