Une collègue de travail, qui nous a fait découvrir son endroit préféré ! L'ambiance intime, l'accueille/service, repas: dont 3 choix spécial midi & la fameuse natas do céu en dessert, tout était no1! Pas de photos, mais en regardent les autres avis, c'est ce que j'ai vécu!

I've been coming to this restaurant for decades, & it remains one of the best-kept secrets for authentic Portuguese cuisine. From the moment you step inside, you're welcomed with the same warmth & hospitality that has defined this place for years.
The menu is a perfect mix of traditional favorites & fresh seafood. My personal favorites are the following:
Entre: Mixed tapas & caldo verde soup
Main: The cataplana dish paired with a bottle of Mateus Rose wine.
Dessert: The natas do ceu (cream from heaven) with a bica.
What truly sets this place apart is the consistency. The flavors, the friendly service, & the cozy atmosphere. Whether it's a quiet dinner or a lively gathering with family & friends, this restaurant always delivers an experience that feels like home.
Decades later, I keep coming back-& I always will.

Ce restaurant est une véritable pépite! Dès notre arrivée, nous avons été enveloppés par une ambiance chaleureuse & accueillante, rappelant l'atmosphère d'un repas chez des proches portugais. La cuisine était tout simplement divine - des saveurs portugaises authentiques débordantes de fraîcheur & de créativité. Nous avons commencé par d'appétissants hors-d'oeuvres : des calamars grillés à la perfection, des bolinhos de bacalhau e de camarao (croquettes de morue & de crevettes) accompagnés d'une sauce piquante délicieuse, & une salade de pieuvre que nous recommandons vivement. Le point culminant fut les scallops au pesto de tomates, fondant en bouche. Pour les plats principaux, nous avons dégusté une paella à la portugaise généreusement garnie de délicieux fruits de mer & baignée dans une sauce sensationnelle, ainsi qu'un agneau braisé, cuit à la perfection. Pour terminer sur une note sucrée, nous avons savouré des pastéis de nata, des natas do céu (accompagnées d'un espresso, quel délice!), un no-bake gâteau au chocolat & des rabanadas. Bruno possède une connaissance approfondie de la carte des vins & nous a guidés avec expertise dans le choix des accords, aboutissant à des choix parfaitement harmonieux. Sa passion pour son patrimoine transparaissait dans chacune de ses interactions, rendant notre soirée véritablement inoubliable. Nous nous sommes sentis comme si nous dînions avec un ami & sa famille, immergés au coeur de la culture portugaise. Je recommande vivement ce restaurant à tous ceux qui recherchent une expérience culinaire authentique & inoubliable. Rapport qualité-prix exceptionnel. C'est l'endroit idéal pour une occasion spéciale ou une soirée mémorable entre amis.
Travelling
What a Montreal treasure ! Having just returned from Portugal in September, we were thrilled to be introduced to this restaurant by friends. From the start, the service was friendly & helpful. We had the mixed tapas to start, & all 4 of us were entirely satisfied. The bread, olives & beans, & soft cheese accompaniment were quickly devoured. We chose the fish of the day (one fresh Icelandic cod & the other a branzino). Both fish were pan-fried in a light caper & butter, were delicious & moist, & came with mashed potatoes, & grilled vegetables. The men had the bitoque steak meal & the salted cod plate. The bitoque was amazingly tender with a sauce so reminiscent of those in Portugal. Dessert was fantastic carrot cake & the "heavenly dessert" (nata do céu), & with coffee, they were the perfect end to our meal. Prices were above normal but everything is fresh, plentiful, & delicious. It was our first time, but we are hoping to return again for more flavors of Portugal 🇵🇹.

We had a light lunch & the food was fresh & hot. The atmosphere was pleasant & the service was adequate if a bit inattentive. One problem was the Pastel de nata, which seemed to have been microwaved. I wanted to share mine but could barely cut it with a knife. So much for the flaky crust!
