This restaurant is best known for its grilled menu items. Enjoy sausages grilled to perfection, or try the seared salmon and bass. Not in the mood for meats? Try their caldo verde soup, featuring cabbage and potatoes, or the caldeirada seafood stew. Don't forget to save room for dessert; some of the most delicious pastries and tarts in the city make a perfect end to your meal.
Grillade Portugais Imperio draws praise for a warm, family run atmosphere, generous portions, and authentic Portuguese flavors that feel like a celebration in every dish. The reviews highlight welcoming, attentive service, especially for large groups, and a cozy, lively ambiance that suits both casual dinners and celebrations. Dishes such as octopus, grilled squid, entrecote steak, and the house chicken are repeatedly described as delicious, well seasoned, and cooked to perfection, with generous portions and consistent satisfaction. The seafood and meat platters, along with a range of sides and cocktails, are noted as strong points, while a few preparations are described as very garlicky or salty. Parking is mentioned as a practical plus, and the overall impression is that this family owned spot delivers reliable quality, good value, and a friendly, convivial dining experience that keeps guests returning.
Good service. If you have a pet, it's best to ask beforehand. I brought mine & we were able to enjoy the food together (little piece of fries hihi). Overall, a good experience.
We live in Toronto & our visiting Montreal. The food was authentic Portuguese. Hats off to the chefs! We felt like we were Europe. Staff were amazing!!
This authentic Portuguese restaurant has an exquisite taste in food & offers excellent service in a cozy atmosphere which makes my experience even better!!!
Bonne ambiance, pour ceux qui aiment les restaurants où on parle & rigole à haute voix, c'est un bon endroit. Le service est moyen . La nourriture est très salée attention! Le plat de poisson commandé n'avait pas l'air très frais , agneaux & crevettes très salée. Suppléments tips qui débutent obligatoirement à 25%.

J'aime bcp aller à ce restaurant, les plats sont très bons que ce soit au niveau du goût ou au niveau des portions .
Le personnel est très gentil & professionnel.
Première visite pour nous, grosses attentes à cause des bonnes critiques. La nourriture est correcte, sans plus, les portions sont généreuses. Notre serveur était sec, brusque & sans façon, alors qu'il était souriant & sympathique avec d'autres clients, des réguliers je suppose. Heureusement, une gentille serveuse nous a répondu quand nous manquions d'eau ou avons voulu commander du dessert. Rien pour donner envie de devenir des habituées dans ce resto loin d'être plein un samedi soir, nous irons donc ailleurs pour dépenser notre argent durement gagné.

Great Portuguese chicken. The whole menu is delicious. Our place of choice for lunch meetings. One of the rare places with parking in Montreal. Service is also great & friendly.
