This place was such a great find! I did not go in with the most faith as 4.2 is a good rating but not the best, but this place absolutely deserves 5 stars. We got the table d'hôte for two, which is a great deal. Possibly too great of a deal that we were so full that we had to get dessert to go. The appetizers were a fun array of different items to try & all very good. The chicken was flavorful & tender. The ribs were smoky & fall off the bone. The sides were all excellent as well: the salads are fresh & the Portuguese potatoes are little balls of pillowy softness. On top of it all, the wait staff were friendly, attentive but not overbearing. Highly recommend to anyone who's hungry for a big meal after a long day!
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.
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.
$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.
The chicken, while fairly good, seemed not as good as Nando's. The cooking left it dry in places. The sides: poutine, salad, & coleslaw were ok, while the Portguese potatoes were quite good. Staff was amiable.
After so much exciting news of this fairly new restaurant I was looking forward to tasting its Portugais chicken. After all, being part of the acclaimed Ferreira Café it should be a slam dunk. Sorry, it was one of the worst restaurant experiences of all time. Ordered 1/4 chicken, potatoes roasted under to dripping fat of the birds, sides of cole slaw & Caesar salad & everything was Terrible. Chicken was dry & stringy, potatoes were hard & had no taste. Salads were an after thought. I was blown away by just how bad this dining experience was. Bye the way, the place was empty & the music was so loud that I could not talk to my guest. Sorry, I don't normally post reviews but Campo is terrible.
