We reserved for our christmas family party for pick up.
When we got home with our food it was still piping hot! Food was super fresh chicken was tender & juicy! The sauces on chicken was delicious! The little round potatoes were a huge hit at our table!
We highly recommend cantinho's for delicious Portuguese chicken!

Last time I go to this place, worst customer service, after paying 42$ for a family trio the quality of food & service was not the same as when we started going there when they opened.i paid extra for the patatoes & with extra sauce & they didn't want to put the sauce on the potatoes when i said that i asked for it & paid extra they said the potatoes don't come with the sauce, which i was surprised cause we have ordered the same thing several years. The owner comes out & i told him the situation & he was rude & condescending, his name is Carlos & told me if i was not happy to not come back. Whenever i go there it seems everyone is miserable to work there or extremely rude all the time, doesn't make you want to go back. It also comes with the owner that is not respectful in any way to to customer that is a loyal one to say the least. Not going back! Last time!!! Their is no more customer service. Not recommending this resto to anyone.

Chicken was fine, Rice was fine, the potatoes were not edible. The thick layer of oil was nauseating. This was the first time we experienced this. We usually order for take out, this time we ordered on delivery...most likely won't order again unfortunately.

Unique taste. The best I've had in mtl so far. Dine in & take out. Not a fancy restaurant. Available parking in front & in the back. Family combo 1.5L drink, 6 pieces of chicken + 2 side choices = about 46$ I usually opte for the vegetables & roasted potatoes as side choices. Good quantity for the price.

The food is amazing, I really liked the style of the place & the decor, the staff was polite, efficient & the gentleman that took our order & the rest of the staff offered great service, the chicken, rice & the potatoes were delicious & the portions are enormous & prices are reasonable. Totally worth it... I highly recommend it!!
