Review Summary

Cantinho offers solid Portuguese fare with generous portions and affordable prices, and many diners praise the chicken, sometimes the poutine with Portuguese chicken, and the quick, friendly service that makes it a popular family spot; the place can get packed at peak hours, a sign of its appeal. Reviews also note mixed experiences: some dishes fall short with small or dry chicken pieces, tasteless bites after a chef change, or occasional order errors, while others highlight consistent quality and good value, with fast service, flavorful sauces, and a mix of takeout and dine in options. Overall, Cantinho is seen as a dependable neighborhood option with strong highlights and a few hiccups to watch for.

Great restaurant for dine in or take out. Their chicken is great, of course, but don't overlook their excellent seafood!
I had the grilled sardine appetizer & the grilled calamari appetizer & they both came with a generous & tasty salad. This place is definitely worth more than one visit!

A classic Portuguese grill spot. Nothing revolutionary but just very good traditional grilled meats, chicken, octopus. I like the lowkey environment.

Worth a trip even if I think it has sagged a little in the past years but still a very good restaurant.
