A very lively & busy restaurant for a good reason, the food & service was excellent. Crispy octopus may have been my favourite dish on my entire trip in Montreal. I will be back again to try more.

We had such a wonderful meal at Ferreira Café in Montreal! 🦐🦑 The grilled squid was fresh, tender, & absolutely delicious, & the seafood paella was packed with fresh, flavorful seafood. You can really taste the freshness in every bite!

The only small downside was that the seafood rice had a slightly grainy texture, likely from some of the clams & mussels. Aside from that, everything was delicious & beautifully prepared. Overall, a lovely dining experience & definitely a place we would come back to! ❤?

Ferreira lived up to it's reputation!
It was a lovely everything so we opted to eat outside, they have done a nice job with a covered terrace decorated with beautiful hanging flower baskets & nice decor touches.
The service was very good, our glasses were always filled, clean cutlery & we were on somewhat of a tight schedule & the servers ensure we finished on time.
The dishes we great, amazing flavors, nicely plated, good size portions & exceptional fragrances.
We highly recommend it if you're looking to experience a great meal at a long standing Montreal staple !

This is one of my favorite restaurants in Montreal. Great quality food in a casual atmosphere. The service was great. My friends & I had a great time. All the food was good, but I think the cote de boeuf was the highlight of the meal. My friends enjoyed their seafood choices, too. The staff were also very accommodating to me & my friends because we were not French speakers. All around a great meal & drinks.

The Restaurant manager Caroline was kind & welcoming in-spite of I was not the customer on that day. Love the ambiance of the restaurant. Will recommend this restaurant & will make this as my business dinner spot.

Thank you Caroline!

What an incredible meal we had with my party there. While there was a slight misunderstanding with our waiter, we had the most flavorful & varied food. Each bite made me travel straight back to Portugal, which was exactly what I needed for my birthday!

I couldn't recommend more this spot - & the seafood rice. It comes in a gorgeous Le Creuset Pot & tastes just like Portugal.

A must for Portuguese seafood.
Service atmosphere & food were all amazing. Fresh fish on ice to choose from & the specials were perfection - lobster pasta with cherry tomatoes & a lightly spicy sauce & scallop ceviche with coconut cream were as good if not better than they sound.
We also tried the roasted sardines on cornbread starter & the black cod with porcini & truffle crust - which are 2 of the specialties & they were everything promised.
We wrapped with the triple dessert - tarts, cheesecake & chocolate mousse with lemon ice cream, olive oil & salt.
I cant really say enough about the service, either. Patient & shared context about every dish with a smile & desire to please.
We stumbled on this gem but the guests next to us told us they'd researched it & came because of the reviews.

The hardest part is not going 2 nights in a row before we leave, knowing there are so many other treasures in Montreal.
