Grillado's is described as delivering flavorful Portuguese style chicken with juicy meat and well balanced spices, and generous portions that many feel justify the price, though several reviews note that quality and consistency have dipped recently. The menu's highlights include items like beef ribs with garlic bread and peri fries, with sauces and spice blends earning particular praise and a favorable balance between dine in and quick service. Service is often praised for friendliness and attentiveness, while some comments point to an outdated look, a dining room that feels more suited to takeout, and occasional cleanliness issues. A few readers suggest adding more sides per plate and a renovation to lift the overall ambiance. Overall, the reviews converge on a strong liking for the food and a willingness to return, tempered by concerns about value, consistency, and atmosphere.
Glad I stopped by for a late night eat. I was surprised how good the food was. I got the whole chicken & the spices & piquente sauce wax VERY good with a tomato style.
The food is always good & well seasoned. The chicken is juicy. Loved the wings in the garlic sauce. The host Aya was really sweet, helpful & welcoming. Definitely recommend :-)

I've eaten from Grillados on multiple occasions, but through Uber.So this was my first time dining in & in short, it won't be my last time doing so. My appetizer was onions rings & garlic bread, both of which were fresh,crunchy & a joy to the tongue. My Entree was the Beef back Ribs, if you're looking for the best ribs in Montreal, your search ends here, the meat was almost falling off the bone & sauce they put on the ribs was just *chef's kiss*. 5 The service was pretty quick,I do wish the table we were given was clean,but that was sorted swiftly. 3/5 The atmosphere wasn't much to write home about,but the restaurant feels like the perfect place to have a meal with a group of friends,sort of how it is in sitcoms. 3/5
Just ate here & took the Grilled Espetada with BBQ sauce it was a very generous portion & the sauce was exceptional!! The chicken was so tender & delicious too. It is a must try for chicken lovers.
I've had my fair share of Peri Peri chicken from Nando's but I've never had peri peri beef ribs. & boy oh boy were these delicious. The beef was tender & had a great char flavor which worked really well with the sauce. Only dinging a star coz the chicken wings were a bit tough & the onion rings were not so great. But other than that, excellent spot. Added bonus is that it's halal , in case you have dietary restrictions.

Pouting was great. Fries made in fresh oil. Good base pouting sauce augmented with peri peri flavor & tasty chicken. It's honestly one of the top 15 poutines I've had The chicken wings were fresh, perfectly charred & the sauce was very tasty.
We ordered this chicken & fries dish & were able to eat 2. Cost about $20 We got the spiciest, was impressed with what we were given. Tasted very good, the fries were well cooked, crispy. We tried the side piri piri as well as the garlic sauce & they were both yummy. We paid at the counter & took a seat, then the food was brought to our table. I was disappointed when we sat at the booth, our table was wobbly it needed an adjustment & the bathroom was out of toilet paper. But these are all small things that could be fixed to complete our experience here. ☺️
𝘋𝘦𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘪𝘰𝘶𝘴 𝘍𝘰𝘰𝘥 🍖 Came in with a big group & ordered a variety of meals. Their service was quick & efficient. I recommend the garlic bread & their peri fries & potato wedges! I got the Fiesta dish, which comes with rice, salad, & juicy chicken. You can choose the flavor of the sauce as well as the level of spice❗️ The restaurant is clean & kid friendly. There was no music playing, but the vibes were cool regardless. I absolutely loved my experience & will be coming back to try the nachos !!
Just tried this for the first time. I got the Peri Peri chicken, coleslaw & fries. Everything was really good. The spicy sauce has a great flavour & not too spicy just enough kick. Great....place. Congratulations!!!
