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.
This is definitely a showcase restaurant for Portuguese seafood & cooking, from appetizers, main to desserts, it will brighten your day & will not disappoint. We went there as a party of three. We deliberately choose different items from the menu. We all decided to go back again for another time to have more.

I visited McGill University in early November of 2024. A couple of university professors took me to Ferreira for dinner as I told them earlier that I liked seafood. There was a lot of options even among seafood. I ordered a salmon dish. The others ordered a variety of dishes. The dishes were plentiful. Later, we ordered a sampler of desserts. All dishes were very tasty. Overall, it was a very good dinner.
We were guests at a private event in the open-kitchen dining room on the mezzanine. The staff at this fine-dining restaurant was outstanding. Once again, we were served by Fernando. Whenever Fernando was around, we dined splendidly. He had carte blanche for the amuses-bouches, appetizers, & dessert. As usual, he dazzled us with an array of starters: sardine filets, black cod cake, grilled squid, crispy octopus, smoked eggplant, Senhor José's homemade smoked salmon, &, not to be forgotten, the Joselito Ham which was incredibly delicious & melted in the mouth. For the main courses, my wife selected the "Porcini-crusted roasted black cod," while I opted for the filet mignon, which was perfectly cooked rare as requested, juicy with a crust. For the wine, I wanted to experience the wines from the owner's Portuguese vineyard. Fernando recommended a reserved bottle that was not listed on the menu. For dessert, we enjoyed the famous pastéis de nata, chocolate mousse, fartura de feira, & sorbet. To cap off the meal, we were treated to a complimentary shooter. The bill was considerably steep, but the meal was absolutely incredible & memorable.
De passage à Montréal, le Ferreira Café nous a été recommandé. Une expérience culinaire portugaise extraordinaire doublé d'un accueil chaleureux & professionnel par tout le personnel, de l'hôte, à la cheffe d'équipe Caroline, notre sommelier & notre serveuse, Jeanne! M. Carlos, vous avez une équipe extraordinaire! Bravo! Annie Roy & André Rivard de Québec.
The food is very good. I give 4 stars because the dish I ordered - the Bouillabaisse- is extremely salted. I asked for some lemon & I was also offered broth without any additional salt to dilute the sauce. Next time, I will remember to specify No Salt when ordering the food! !
Not sure what was better, the service or food? Our waiter was lovely & made the best recommendations. The food was divine! Will def come back on my next trip to Montreal. Thank you for a wonderful experience

Just wow! Unfortunately no photos, but had the sardines to start, perfectly cooked! Had the duck risotto, good lord it's outstanding, served in individual pots. Had an outstanding bottle of Portuguese red wine & finished with a beautiful glass of 10 year old port. Not cheap, but you pay for spectacular food, wine & educated & engaging staff.
I just had the best time at Cafe Ferreira for a work event! We came in at 9 PM with a group of 10, & we were treated to a fabulous table d'hote menu featuring steak, prawns, veggies, & mushroom risotto. Everything was served buffet style, which was so convenient & fun, & it even came with dessert! I have to say, the prawns & the risotto were definitely my favorites - they were absolutely delicious! The service was amazing, too; the staff was super attentive & always there for refills. Overall, it was such a great spot for our group event, & I can't recommend it enough!
It's an institution definitively worth trying when in montreal,especially there octopus(main dish). Nice variety of Portuguese wines,Tristan (sommelier) was very helpful. Cheers
