Ferreira Café - A Truly Exceptional Portuguese Dining Experience
My visit to Ferreira Café was nothing short of extraordinary. Their cuisine is truly amazing, showcasing a perfect blend of creativity, quality, & authentic Portuguese flavors. From start to finish, every dish felt like a carefully crafted work of art.
We began with their signature appetizer, the Crispy Octopus & the Seafood Platter & both were spectacular. The presentation was beautiful, & each bite was well-balanced & full of flavor. It set the tone for what became an unforgettable dining experience.
The main courses were just as impressive. The'Fresh Catch from the Market & Portugal' lived up to its name: fresh, soft, & rich in flavor. The Fish & Seafood Bouillabaisse & the Lagareiro Octopus were incredibly savory & deeply satisfying. & the Tomahawk? An absolute masterpiece, perfectly cooked & bursting with flavor. It was truly one of the highlights of the night.
The cocktails were equally impressive. The Negroni, Filthy Martini, & Gaia were crafted with precision & tasted like works of art in a glass. The sommelier's champagne & wine recommendations were spot-on, & we thoroughly enjoyed every selection he made.
With great ambiance, friendly staff, & outstanding service, Ferreira Café delivered a memorable dining experience from beginning to end. As my first time enjoying Portuguese cuisine, I couldn't have asked for a better introduction. This restaurant is truly worth visiting.

Délicieux, mais charger 6$ pour du pain pi deux olives, vous êtes cheap en esti. Au prix de vos assiettes & bouteilles, absorbez la'perte'.

Wow. I thought my Montreal friend was taking me to a Portuguese chicken spot. Just phenomenal. I changed my opinion of octopus here.

Our first time at Ferreira cafe.
From the beginning we were greeted with a friendly & kind smile by the hostesses. We were early so sat at the bar for some drinks, beautiful bar & comfortable high chairs. Our waiter was very attentive & gave us a good rundown of the food on the menu. I ended up having the fish & seafood bouillabaisse & my wife had the seafood rice casserole. Both dishes were cooked to perfection & the flavour were delicious. My bouillabaisse sauce was so good I had to have it like soup with bread, I also order the carabineiro which added extra flavour!
We will definitely come back to Ferreira next time we visit Montreal.
Obrigado!

Ferreira Café is an exceptional dining experience that beautifully blends elegance with warmth. From the moment I arrived, the service was outstanding-attentive, friendly, & professional without ever feeling intrusive. The staff made sure every detail was perfect, enhancing the overall experience. I ordered the ceviche & the octopus, & both dishes were prepared to absolute perfection. The ceviche was fresh, vibrant, & bursting with flavor, while the octopus was tender, expertly grilled, & beautifully presented. Each bite reflected the chef's skill & dedication to quality ingredients. The atmosphere of the restaurant added to the experience-sophisticated yet comfortable, ideal for both casual & special occasions. Ferreira Café truly delivers on every level, from service to cuisine. I would highly recommend it to anyone looking for an unforgettable meal in a refined yet welcoming setting.

Husband is Portuguese & we love Portus 360. We tried Ferreira café, & it was good food/service/ambiance, but we still prefer Portus 360 in the same price range.

A bit disappointing for such a highly rated place. It's really unacceptable that they bring olives & bread to the table without asking, & then charge $6 for it. That's not the kind of surprise you expect in a restaurant of this level, it feels like they're trying to squeeze extra money from customers.
The food was okay. I tried the bouillabaisse, & while it was fine, it wasn't anything special, certainly not worth the high prices.
Overall, nice atmosphere, but overpriced & not transparent with the charges.

We went for L'après 9 promotion & were absolutely satisfied with the food. Big portion & very tasty. Their signature bouillabaisse is a must-try. The duck confit risotto was also great.

We were looking for a late dinner in downtown Montreal & our hotel concierge snagged us reservations here. The food, service, & atmosphere at Ferreira Café is top-notch. The highly capable staff will not guide you astray. Every one of their recommendations were delicious!
