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.
The food was delicious & the service was the very best. Servers were friendly & kind with lovely smiles. Prices were also reasonable. The only slight problem was the cold from the front door & the freezer when it was being used. Will definitely go back with an extra sweater 😅
Une belle découverte dans le quartier! Le poulet, les frites & la salades étaient délicieux! Portion généreuse & prix accessible! On y retournera & je recommande sans hésiter! L'endroit est chaleureux & accueillant.
Went with Maria for my birthday which all in all its Top 5 stars 🌟 for me so much so going back next Monday so looking forward to it 😊 Yummy in my Tummy
Super bel accueil, amical, simple & efficace. L'endroit est propre. Le cuisinier qui passe de temps en temps pour nous voir; super! Evidement le poulet est à l'honneur cependant, pieuvre & autre items sont succulents!
The food is beyond delicious, it is cooked to perfection, very tasty & perfectly seasoned. & what cannot be left unsaid is the impeccable service by Mike, who is attentive to the client's needs & requests. The cleaniness is another very positive attribute on all spectrums. Hence, for all these reasons IMPERIO is the go-to for a perfect meal.
After I finished dinner with my girlfriend I accidentally skipped the tips, so the waitress went & told her colleague ( or owner not sure) so he bolted at me to Tell me in front on my girlfriend & the other tables that I should leave a tip & when I tried to explain he kept rudely & aggressively interrupting me in a thug manner. We ended up paying the tip but the whole thing ruined my experience. Hospitality is the first product of a restaurant & they chose to be aggressive & rude. this I why I do not recommend anyone to go there

Nourriture très excellent, services très formidable, jusqu'à date c'est le meilleure Resto a Montréal. pour les personnes qui ont jamais été dans cette resto le meilleur a faire c'est vous déplacer pour goûter & c'est sur qui vous aller retourner parce que c'est vraiment beau.
Wowwww. That's real Portuguese food my friends I tell you. Had the cod fish its was amazingly good & the tapas were great. The shrimp cakes & cod cakes were house made & it shows. If you like good Portuguese food that's the place Imperio. There's a parking lot + terrerase outside.
Great food & amazing service. I had the garlic shrimp & the grilled octupos it was soooooo tender. Never had octopos this good. Had the grilled chicken it was amazing with there house friends & the salad dressing was to die for. Finish with there house dessert "cream of heaven" trust me it has its name right. I really recommend this place to everyone who like good food for a good price wtih amazing service. You should definitely try it.😀
Nous nous sommes rendus chez Imperio en famille le 18/07/2015 sur les conseils d'un ami. Nous avions hâte de goûter à un nouveau protugais, nous qui adorons les grillades portugaises bien faites. Malheureusement, notre expérience fut catastrophique. Nous sommes arrivés, & déjà les serveurs semblaient de mauvaise humeur. Ils ont accepté de mauvaise grâce de nous placer sur la terrasse. Ils ont ensuite mis 10 bonnes minutes à apportez les menus & sont venus prendre la commande un peu après. Ensuite, c'est une seule longue attente d'une heure, 1 HEURE, sans aucune visite d'un serveur & SANS RIEN RECEVOIR À MANGER. En colère, affamés & fatigués, nous avons décidé de partir & je suis allé les prévenir que nous quittions parce que le délai & le service étaient inacceptables. Le serveur m'a répondu «mais c'est prêt là» (ceci dit il n'y avait aucune assiette de prête à servir donc je ne sais pas si c'était vrai). Je lui ai répliqué que nous avions passé une heure sans nouvelles & sans repas & que c'était la raison pour laquelle nous quittions. Il m'a juste répondu «OK». Aucune excuse, aucune offre pour tenter de nous retenir & améliorer notre expérience client. Nous étions 6 enthousiastes, mais nous n'avons rien mangé & nous nous sommes promis de ne pas retourner dans ce restaurant.
