A new fast-food concept in downtown Montreal, CAMPO specializes in local, 100% grain-fed Portuguese chicken. At Campo, diners can enjoy their chicken—served whole, in a roll, in a sandwich, or in poutine—in a modern, authentic environment, or they can take it to go.
Campo earns praise for its juicy Portuguese chicken, flavorful sauces, and generous sides, with a cozy vibe and attentive service noted by many, though some visits describe slower or less attentive service, portions that feel small or come a bit cold, and occasional miscommunications; the table d'hôte option offers good value and a chance to sample multiple dishes, natas are a must-try, and dishes like ribs and croquettes typically impress, while others wish for bolder spice or more consistent heat; overall Campo is a solid downtown choice for lunch or casual dinner with reasonable prices and a mix of strong and varied experiences.
Sadly, we sat there, it was almost empty, & we wait about 20 min for them to notice our presence. It's ok I can deal with that but...sadly everything was a little cold & taste only the orange bbq sauce & they put it on everything. So it was that. There was absolutely no ambiance, the tables are really small & the service was almost inexistant. I know that this restaurant was only a take out spot a few years ago, maybe they should go back to that. Just my humble opinion.
Bon repas. Le service était impeccable & la bouffe décente. Service rapide.
J'aurai aimé du fromage dans le sandwich mais on m'a dit que ça ne pouvait pas se faire.
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
J'ai essayé la table d'hôte & j'ai vraiment adoré. Le poulet est tout simplement délicieux. Rares sont les restaurants qui offrent une aussi belle qualité pour le prix. En plus, le service était très sympathique. Je recommande fortement le Campo !
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.
The restaurant has an interesting concept & it wasn't clear when we walked in if they offered dine in or take out. No one was there to greet us at the door. The kitchen/counter is level below & we had literally go to find the waitress & ask her to serve us… other than that, their 3 course tasting menu is amazing. Unlimited side dishes & an opportunity to taste all the best dishes on their menu. I personally found the ribs to be a tougher side but the chicken was perfectly tender. For 27$ each, it's a steal!
Most of the authentic Portugese churrasqueira places are huddled around the Plateau or more north than that, so Campo fills an open niche for downtown dining. This restaurant is perfectly located for an office lunch break, the casual settings allow you to get in/out at your own pace as the food is served very swiftly. The chicken was of great quality, the sauce wasn't exactly hittin but still some great meat. The sides were enjoyable too.
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.
Only hiccup was the table d'hote...on Facebook, it says 27$/ for 2 people, where as there website says each...should clear that up abit...but no complaints...was delicious & will return
