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.

The staff has always been so amazing to my family who had come here before ALS games for many, many years. I hope the closed hous are just short term because I'll Die without my spicy shrimp

Pretty good, the broa de milho was excellent, the grilled chicken was flavorful, the waiter Jose Manuel seemed very busy, & we didn't much of his attention, it was late & he was probably tired. Overall respect for these hard working people.

A true gem in the heart of Plateau-Mont-Royal (Portuguese Plateau).

We were 5 people for lunch during a busy weekend, Saint-Laurent Sidewalk Sale. Surprisingly inside, it wasn't. We showed up no reservation & they took us in right away.

The waiter was super friendly & checked up on us regularly. There was a big group in the second section of the restaurant, but they weren't that loud for us to talk. The food was amazing. No issues with the chicken, pork, shrimps & steak. Everything was perfection.

I would suggest anyone on a visit from anywhere, to try out this restaurant if you are in the heart of the Portugese Plateau.
