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.

We were hosted to this restaurant by our Portuguese friend recently. It's clearly a family favorite, & now I understand why. The Portuguese cuisine was the best I've ever had-everything was freshly made, bursting with flavor, & incredibly juicy. A big thank you to CASA MINHOTA for the exceptional hospitality & for letting us experience such outstanding dishes. Highly recommended!

Très très belle découverte ! Excellente cuisine portugaise, pleines de saveurs , de goûts, & dans un équilibre gustatif qui se suffit à lui même harmonisé par le vino verde qui dans sa légèreté complète les saveurs sans les.surpassees.bien copieux se surcroît. Ça fait tellement du bien! LE MEILLEUR RESTAURANT SUR MONTREAL DEPUIS LONGTEMPS, & même à date pour nous!!! Bravo & merci! A bientôt !!
