Review Summary

Chez José Café is widely regarded as a charming Montreal staple, celebrated for its authentic, flavorful Portuguese-inspired cuisine and cozy, vibrant atmosphere. Many visitors praise the generous portions and high-quality ingredients found in popular dishes like the seafood soup, Portuguese breakfast, and delicious crepes, while the pastel de nata is frequently noted as an absolute must-try. The café offers a warm, welcoming environment that feels like a home away from home, complemented by a friendly and attentive staff. Although the popular location can result in wait times on weekends and limited indoor space, the overall experience is consistently described as a delightful and memorable highlight for both locals and travelers exploring the neighborhood.

Super nice cafe, with great food & amazing service. Hard to pick from the menu but I'd be down to come back & try multiple things. I got the Portuguese platter & my friends go the breakfast sandwiches. Gorgeous interior, & our server was the best. Be ready to wait on the weekend as with any brunch spot, just make sure to add your name on the waitlist before arriving. :)

Amazing spot, food was delicious, portions are generous, & service is fast. We had the Portuguese breakfast comes with potatoes, chorizo, peppers, tomato, salad, & bread, so good. It's a bit tight inside (you'll be sitting close to others) & seating is limited, so expect a line depending on the time.

Service hyper lent. Nos plats ont été longtemps sur le bord de la cuisine avant d'être servi. Café ok sans plus. Expérience décevante.
