Campo specializes in authentic Portuguese rotisserie chicken prepared with a signature piri-piri sauce that balances heat and acidity. The menu centers on high-quality poultry marinated for twenty-four hours before being fire-roasted to achieve crispy skin and succulent meat. Accompanying sides include thick-cut fries, fresh salads, and traditional natas that complete the culinary experience. The space functions as an efficient, fast-paced environment tailored for those seeking straightforward and flavor-forward meals without unnecessary pretense. Every component, from the tangy house-made sauces to the perfectly charred chicken, adheres to classic techniques originating from Portugal. This establishment prioritizes consistent quality and bold seasoning profiles to deliver a distinct eating experience. The focus remains strictly on accessible, well-executed grilled poultry dishes that define the menu identity.
Campo is widely recognized for serving flavorful, high-quality Portuguese chicken that many patrons find both delicious and tender, making it a popular choice for a casual lunch or a satisfying workday meal. While many diners praise the cozy atmosphere, the varied menu options like the poutine, ribs, and table d'hôte, and the attentive service provided by the friendly staff, experiences can be inconsistent. Some guests have encountered challenges with dry meat, varying portion sizes, and occasional lapses in service or organization, particularly during busy periods. Overall, it remains a well-regarded downtown destination for those seeking quick, authentic Portuguese flavors, even if individual visits may occasionally vary in quality.
Great dining experience: Attentive service, really tasty Portuguese chicken, a nice crisp salad, reasonably priced draft beer. Not a massive portion of chicken, but it was enough for me.
Great small & cozy restaurant, conveniently has a TV to watch hockey games. It's not too loud. We were able to have a conversation while eating & watching. Food is great. Chicken wings are tasty & crispy. Very reasonable price & service is nice too. Definitely recommend!
We had a wonderful experience at Camp Poulet Portugais with their table d'hôte.
The appetizer selection was excellent; chips, chicken wings, croquettes, grilled chouriço, & olives were all full of flavor. For the main course, the chicken was incredibly tender & delicious, but the real highlight for us were the ribs; absolutely the star of the plate.
The sides were just as good: the salad was fresh & the fries were perfectly done. Portions were very generous as well.
For dessert, both Natas & brownies were top-notch & ended the meal on a perfect note.
Overall, a great dining experience with very friendly service. It was a bit slow, but the restaurant was very busy, so it was understandable. We really enjoyed our visit & would definitely come back.

Amazing chicken & food! Only thing I'd say is the peri peri sauces (which is really nice!) on the table are almost all empty. Maybe check them regularly to top up.
$22 for a tiny piece of chicken, a few potatoes & they forgot the salad too, didn't get a chance to go back for it so now it's the tiniest overpriced lunch ever.
I've officially given up. I've ordered three times, & they managed to forget the sauce (the one thing they're known for) every single time. My latest order was essentially a bag of missing items: no fries, no side salads, & they even managed to send a chicken salad without the chicken. It's a toss-up whether the kitchen or the delivery is more disorganized, but after giving them plenty of'redemption' opportunities, I'm out.
We ordered from timeout. The poutine was cold. Fries are too salty. Chicken is tasteless. I told the cashier about it & they were just in shock & did nothing
Ordered the chicken plater with potatoes & fries. The portions are very good but I expected more flavour. Good quality of ingredients. The ceaser is not good, one of the worst i ever tasted. Maybe i was just unlucky this day. Idk...
most of the food is good, but the fries were way too soggy & oily, so much so that each fry was literally bursting oil in my mouth when i was eating it. very unpleasant & i honestly couldn't eat the fries. Chicken is still delicious & good, but a bit underflavored compared to other Portuguese chicken spots.
Also, I wish they could bring back the taro protein bowl. it was the best thing on their menu
Both the bowl & the poutine were fantastic. The Portuguese chicken flavor really stood out & was clearly high quality. There can be a bit of a lunchtime rush, but the lines move quickly.
