If Ferreira Café has quickly established itself as one of the best restaurants in town, there is no mystery: a visionary owner, an inspired chef, high quality products and a talented and dedicated team. In Montreal, Ferreira Café gives the Portuguese cuisine all its nobility.
Reviewers describe Ferreira Café as an elegant, intimate setting with chic Portuguese influences and a strong focus on fresh seafood. The menu is praised for beautifully balanced dishes, high quality ingredients, and care in both flavors and presentation. The service is repeatedly described as attentive, knowledgeable, and professional, though a few guests note occasional lapses when the restaurant is busy. Many guests praise standout items such as octopus, black cod, bouillabaisse, and other seafood specialties, with compliments on generous portions and thoughtful pairings. The wine list and cocktails receive frequent praise, and the open kitchen adds to the lively, upscale vibe. Prices are described as high and some feel value does not always match the cost, along with occasional notes about additional charges for bread or olives. A few reviews note noise level or occasional off nights where dishes arrive not as hot as expected, but the overall sentiment remains highly favorable. Overall, Ferreira Café stands out in Montreal for authentic Portuguese dining and top-tier seafood, delivering a refined yet welcoming experience that many would happily return for.

We have had the pleasure twice of dining at Cafe Ferreira & both times have been wonderful! Last night we had oysters that we terrific & we split a whole sea bass that was perfectly prepared with simplicity & elegance. The vegetables were cooked perfectly Al dente, & the lemon pan a cotta with fresh fruit was a lovely ending to our meal. The service is professional & attentive. Ambience is lovely.
Have not been here for 5-7 years so decided to try again. The Tera's was very nice but food was only average & only average for these prices doesn't work. Sea bass seasoning not great & bouillabaisse was watery & thin.
Not great food
Excellent service! Cuisine correcte. La clientèle n'est vraiment pas la plus cool ou sympa (contrairement aux serveurs...). Addition salée pour ce genre de repas...
