Poulet grillé à la portugaise sur charbon de bois arrosé de sauce Piri Piri maison.
Portuguese Grilled Chicken on Wood Burning Charcoal Drizzled with homemade Piri Piri Sauce.
Barcelos is described as warm and welcoming with attentive service and a comfortable, homey vibe, even late on a snowy evening. Food is consistently praised for juicy, well seasoned chicken, flavorful piri piri sauce, and sides like crispy fries and a fresh salad. The portions and speed of service are noted as strengths, with meals arriving quickly and seating plentiful, though some reviews mention that the poutine portions or sauce balance could be improved. The restaurant is described as a hidden gem with ample parking in a calm area, contributing to a relaxed feel. Takeout experiences are described as reliable with friendly, attentive service. Overall impressions across reviews are positive, with plans to return and recommendations for Barcelos as a solid option for Portuguese style chicken, while noting that the ambiance can feel cafeteria like to some.
We stopped in at Barcelo's on a snowy Sunday evening for dinner on our way home. It was getting late, & the roads were quiet, so we were pleasantly surprised by how warm & welcoming the restaurant felt as soon as we stepped inside. The staff greeted us right away & quickly took our order at the counter, which was especially nice after being out in the cold.
We ordered the family meal & added a poutine on the side. Despite it being late in the evening, the food came out very quickly, & there was plenty of seating available. The service throughout our visit was consistently friendly & attentive, making the experience feel relaxed & easy.
As for the food-everything was delicious. The potatoes were perfectly cooked with great texture & flavor, & the chicken was done to absolute perfection: tender, juicy, & well-seasoned. The accompanying salad was fresh & surprisingly flavorful, rounding out the meal nicely.
The poutine was also enjoyable, with a generous amount of cheese & a hearty portion of meat. The only thing we would have loved is just a bit more gravy, but overall it was still very satisfying.
The restaurant itself feels like a bit of a hidden gem-seemingly in the middle of nowhere since it's not located in a particularly busy area, yet it has a large parking lot & a warm, inviting interior that makes it feel comfortable & homey.
Overall, we had a wonderful experience at Barcelo's & were impressed by both the quality of the food & the friendliness of the staff. We definitely plan to return for a second visit.

Bien heureuse d'avoir ce restaurant portugais à Chambly. Meilleure poutine au poulet ! Nous prenons souvent le combo familial poulet frites & pommes de terre portugaises. J'adore la vinaigrette dans la salade. Je recommande ce restaurant, sans hésiter.
Bon petit resto. Portions quand même généreuses, pour le prix. & savoureux. Staff très courtois & accueillant lors de notre visite. (Nous avons pris l'assiette Barcelos, la soupe du jour (soupe poulet/riz), & une de leurs poutines. Tous très bons! Recommandé.
