My partner & I tried Helena last night & enjoyed the 6 course tasting menu. I was in Portugal last summer & have been craving authentic Portuguese food, & this restaurant filled that void not Only was the food delicious, but the staff was also very helpful. The only reason I gave service a 4 to 5 is because at the beginning, we did have to wait quite some time for a server to take our order. The caldo verde tasted exactly like I was back in Portugal!

Went here for a birthday dinner. It was my pick because I love Portuguese food & often make some of the dishes at home.

The food & service were outstanding. It is tapas style so we ordered several dishes to share, wine, & dessert. Every dish came out so well plated, down to the smallest detail. The octopus was pure perfection & the port wine tasting on the dessert menu is not to be missed. The caldo verde soup is one of my favoritea to make at home & did not disappoint.

The interior was authentic Portugal & interesting. The service was so well timed that it felt choreographed. I can't wait to come back.

We were looking for some place to eat & literally stumbled across Helena. We were able to book a seat at the bar. The staff was friendly & super helpful. We had one of their specialty cocktails & wine. Both were excellent. The tasting menu was excellent although way more than you can comfortably eat. Everything was delicious. The steak one of the best I've had in years. For a great dinner & amazing service, give this place a try!

Best Portuguese cuisine in Montreal, hands down. Chef Helena's creations are not only delicious but beautifully presented. Each plate is like a work of art. We enjoyed the tasting menu with wine pairings, & every course was exceptional, from the fresh seafood to the tender meats, with flavors that were both authentic & creative.

The service was warm, attentive, & knowledgeable, which made the evening even more enjoyable. The staff explained each pairing & shared details about the dishes, showing real passion for the food & wines.

The ambiance is refined yet welcoming. Helena is perfect for a special night out or celebrating a milestone. Portions were generous for a tasting menu, & the pacing was excellent, giving us time to savor every bite.

We left feeling that Helena offers not just a meal, but a true culinary experience. Highly recommended for anyone seeking fine dining in Montreal, especially lovers of Portuguese cuisine. We'll definitely be returning!

In the years I've spent working in fine dining as a cook, to the restaurants I've been blessed to sit down & witness the excellency that makes such an impact to cities, Helena is by far the greatest experience to date. The Atmosphere & staff were just the beginning to what is one of the best kitchen's someone can enjoy. Its not often you're lost for words when going through a tasting menu & tonight was an exception. I truly look forward to what will come in the future inside the doors of this establishment & will be back soon enough to create more memories curated & supported by a phenomenal team. Till next time, cheers & best wishes.
