It offers Portuguese cuisine. Their food is excellent & the servers are extremely respectful & ready to help with your choice of food & drink. It is a bit pricy. You may go as a couple or with friends. I don't recommend it for small children although there is no issue taking them there. But children may appreciate simpler food

Service très accueillant & efficace pour un lunch d'affaires. Plats excellents, la pieuvre est de qualité & le risotto au canard est très bien servi. Mention spéciale également à l'assortiment de desserts.

Café intimiste, excellent, incontournable.
Le service est génial, les plats sont extrêmement bien préparés & l'ambiance est super.
La fraîcheur des poissons, la délicatesse de la cuisson rendent ce lieu incontournable.
À découvrir !
Les cocktails avec ou sans alcools sont divins.
Le vins parfaitement choisi.
L'endroit est situé en plein centre-ville.

Great food. A bit expensive but well worth it. Tomahawk steak is excellent.

Mon expérience pour le 2e service du nouvel ans nous a pas impressionné. Le plateau de fruits de mer étais ordinaire, aucune sauce à par celle à cocktail était servie avec. Pas de beurre à l'ail qui est l'essentiel. N'avais pas de goût, aucune assaisonnement pour le tout. Le plat principal était correct. Le dessert était pas super. Le mix huile d'olive & chocolat laisse à désirer. Je vois qu'ils ont versé 3 types différents de champagne & ont pas voulu nous servir celui qu'on a demandé, nous ont retiré les verres pour les changer. Vraiment n'importe quoi. Vraiment déçu de cette première expérience qui sera la dernière surtout pour 300$ chacune.

C'était très bon, contente d'y avoir été mais je ne y' retournerai pas. Beaucoup trop dispendieux & trop près des autres tables

The food was good; however, the service was disappointing.
From the start, the waiter's behaviour was unprofessional. While I was placing our order, he walked away to serve another table & later seemed uncomfortable when we said we did not want any starters.
When my brother's sea bass was served, we were not asked whether we would like the head & tail removed. This was surprising, as a neighbouring table received the same dish properly prepared by another waiter.
The situation became more awkward when the bill arrived. I chose not to add a tip, but the waiter insisted that the minimum was 15% & selected it himself on the card machine without my consent.
I normally have no issue tipping & respect hospitality staff, but on this occasion the service & attitude significantly detracted from the experience.

A fantastic Portuguese restaurant for the seafood lover. Amazing selection of seafood, some varieties hard to come by. Everything prepared perfectly. Extremely attentive waiters & large wine list

J'ai visité le Restaurant Ferreira pour le lunch & c'était excellent. Les plats sont savoureux, bien présentés & d'une grande qualité. Le service est efficace, attentionné & très professionnel, parfait pour un repas du midi sans se sentir pressé. L'ambiance est élégante mais détendue. Une adresse idéale pour un lunch d'affaires ou un repas entre amis. J'y retournerai avec plaisir.

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!
