About

Casa Minhota serves authentic Portuguese cuisine centered on fresh seafood and traditional tapas. Guests encounter a menu featuring salt cod prepared in multiple regional styles alongside grilled sardines and succulent octopus drizzled in high-quality olive oil. Small plates focus on bold flavors including spicy chorizo, garlic-heavy shrimp, and rich bean stews that characterize the culinary traditions of northern Portugal. The kitchen emphasizes ingredient integrity through direct heat cooking methods that honor coastal cooking techniques. Simple preparation allows the natural essence of shellfish and Atlantic fish to remain the primary focus of every dish. The environment prioritizes functional simplicity, ensuring that the focus remains entirely on the robust flavor profiles and authentic textures found in traditional Iberian fare.

From the moment we walked in, we were greeted like family, & that warm feeling never faded throughout the night. This has to be some of the best food I've had in a long time! Montreal is renowned for its top-tier restaurants, & this gem certainly deserves a spot at the top of that list.

Every dish-from the appetizers to the mains-tastes like a piece of heaven. You can truly sense the love & care that goes into each recipe, thanks to the exceptional owner & staff who excel at their jobs.

If you're searching for authentic Portuguese cuisine, this restaurant is a must-try! You won't regret it.

Awesome traditional Portuguese food & great Portuguese wine selection! We loved the flavors of our dinner, the broa bread, petiscos & entrees were fantastic. We had bacalhau a bras, bitoque, caldo verde, polvo a lagareiro, all were fantastic! Can't wait to go back.
