Si le restaurant Ferreira Café s’est rapidement établi comme l’une des meilleures tables en ville, il n’y a pas de mystère : un propriétaire visionnaire, un chef inspiré, des produits de grande qualité et une équipe compétente et dévouée. À Montréal, le Ferreira Café donne à la cuisine portugaise toutes ses lettres de noblesse.
Ferreira Café est décrit comme une adresse élégante et animée, une véritable institution de la cuisine portugaise, avec un décor raffiné, une hospitalité chaleureuse et une cuisine ouverte qui apporte de l énergie au repas. Les fruits de mer et les plats portugais y sont fréquemment salués pour leur fraîcheur, leurs saveurs et leur belle présentation, avec des plats comme le poulpe et la morue noire prisés par de nombreux convives. Le service est régulièrement loué pour son attention et son savoir-faire, et la carte des vins et les desserts sont remarquables. Certaines visites signalent des tarifs élevés et des incohérences occasionnelles telles que des plats servis tièdes ou un service plus lent en période d'affluence, amenant certains à remettre en question la valeur du repas. Dans l'ensemble, les avis convergent pour faire de Ferreira Café une destination mémorable à Montréal pour des occasions spéciales, des repas d'affaires ou une soirée animée, bien que quelques expériences suggèrent des marges d'amélioration.
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!
If you like wine & Seafood, then this is the place to visit. Very good selection of wines. The seafood was extremely good. Our Waiter was amazing & attentive. This is a must when visiting Montreal.

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!
Not enough praising for this gem!! I have not been wowed by a restaurant this way since April 2023. Service is absolutely top top notch, attentive to the slightest details. Wine list is impressive. Cocktails are also crafted quasi perfecto (I'm a big bartending aficionado & love my big ice cubes), that aside cocktails are excellent. Food... EVERYTHING is excellent. Went with a big foodie party & we love sharing, so got to try multiple things, the octopus both as appetizer & main, the sardines, the cod cake, the duck with risotto you name it! & the desserts!!!! Their pasteis de nata, the mouse etc etc are amazing, they have a great sharing dessert degustation plate highly recommended. Loved the open kitchen behind glass with everyone moving in full sync. Highly recommended!
