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.
I don't have a Portuguese restaurant in my hometown so coming here was such a special treat! Although the vibes were more on the casual side, the food & service was delicious. I can't wait to go back!

Les plats sont savoureux & les portions sont biens pour le prix. La sauce piri goute authentique, cependant jai enlevé une étoile car nous avons commandé le gros format, mais nous avons reçu le petit. Somme toute une bonne expérience à la livraison.
Que de déception. J'ai fait une commande Uber le 22 Mai 2024 & j'ai commandé le Combo 1/4 de poulet (cuisse) & j'ai choisi les patates grecques qui viens aussi avec de la salade de choux. J'ai été très déçue de recevoir ce plat tellement gris & triste. Le poulet n'avait qu'un goût de tomate & c'étais très huileux. Aucune bonne saveur de poulet portugais à laquelle je suis habituées. On dirait qu'ils ont oublié les épices & que ça seulement été mariné, à peine de saveur. Les patates n'étais pas mauvaise, mais elles étaient aussi très huileuses & pas assez assaisonnées. La salade de choux est excellente par contre ! J'ai déjà mangé directement au restaurant dans le passé & c'étais une très bonne expérience donc je suis très déçue de celle-ci... Je ne pense pas recommender de cet endroit.
Je n'ai pas été trop fan de la nourriture, un peu trop de citrons pour moi mais le service était excellente. Serveuse bien gentille & au petit soin ! L'ambiance est géniale avec la déco & la musique :)
La nourriture est très bonne & les portions sont raisonnables, à quelques exceptions près. J'ai mangé 3x la bas, c'est un peu plus couteux que d'autres restaurants au centre-ville. Le poulet, les sandwichs (bifana) & leurs bols sont aussi très bon. Les portions sont adéquates. Là ou j'ai un bug, j'ai acheté des natas qui sont vraiment trop chères & une autre fois une saucisse chouriço en entrée. La saucisse était plus ou moins 4$ avec les taxes. En réalité , c'était une saucisse coupé en deux sur le long, donc une demie saucisse. À 4$ , c'est n'importe quoi. Sinon le service & la rapiditié est impeccable. Je vais continuer d'y aller lorsque ça adonne , mais plus jamais d'entrée ou de dessert.

I recently dined at Campo & I must say, I was incredibly impressed. Having been there quite often, I can confidently say that the food never disappoints. Super delicious 🤤🤩
The chicken dishes are far from the Portuguese piri piri grilled chicken I've got to know! Chicken portions were not generous & lacked effort, the spicy portuguese signature taste was missing & chicken was dry. The waiter gave his best service he could, why I give 4/5 stars. He did check on us & later when we went to pay, we discovered they keep piri sauce on the side - was not offered. Our dinner sitting at Campo was Saturday around 7- 8.30pm

Great place! the food was delicious (I took a verde bowl) & the service was really friendly. The vibe was really nice, with candles on the tables & a great playlist in the background. Would definitely recommend it!
Ce fut une très belle découverte, j'aime bien le look intérieur du restaurant. Que dire du poulet à part qu'il était divin ! Il était goûteux & juteux. La présentation des plats était jolie & les portions étaient généreuses.
So I heard about this place called Time Out where it's the third place in the world where you have essentially upscale food court in a mall. This is the essentially what Time Out is, mixed with numerous other sorts of food offerings but designed & owned by top restaurateurs &/or chefs. We went to CAMPO which was been said to be one the better places to eat Portuguese rotisserie chicken. We figured that since this is the brainchild of the famous Ferreira Restaurant it must be good. The outcome. Yes it was good, not great, not amazing but good. I think Toronto has much but restaurants like this than Montreal but such is life. The food was prepared quickly in the amount of time it took to find a table to be exact. How could this be so fast? They continuously cook chickens to an almost fully cooked state, then briefly place it back on the spit to refresh it - I think, or maybe not & it sits in a warmer. I say the second because our food came more warm than hot & fresh with a crispy skin texture. Which is one main reason why it's not 5 stars. Moreover, the chicken had very minimal marinade (I imagine it's Piri Piri) & there was no offer to provide a small container of sauce for dipping which it really needed for the white meat especially since it was quite dry. I also do not like when (typically inexperienced cooks) slice into my meals protein to check for done-ness. Likely another attribute to dry chicken. Ironically the dark meat thigh was done fine but the drumstick was hard & overdone. Aside from this the size of the chicken seems much smaller than most other rotisserie in Montreal or even Toronto for that matter Fries are reasonably good considering they said they are not home made, just the portion was quite small as was the delicious salad & its dressing but so small it was almost like a second thought. The other thing is product knowledge. The whole time out is mostly filled with very young & inexperienced staff & it makes you wonder people what the quality will be. In our case the server self admittedly no idea of what the food is, how it's made, & had no sense of the product or pride in it for that matter. Somewhat of a turn off from a foodie perspective. We heard from many people that the chicken sandwich was amazing but we wanted to evaluate the chicken on its own, & perhaps smothered with other items & the sandwich roll its better I don't know. All in all reasonably good food but for the price I would not go out of my way again to eat there as they are other better places to eat. But if I were there in the building let's say, & didn't want to try all the other great food options, I may try their sandwich as a last ditch to get a hot properly cooked chicken product. All in all I expected much much more from the owners at Ferreira - it's not up to their standard at all from my experience.
Dans l'ensemble le repas était délicieux, bon service, le lieux était propre & bien décoré. Le seul bémol pour moi c'était le poulet sec mais ça a été largement compenser par les tartelettes & la pieuvre.
