Reviews consistently highlight Ma Poule Mouillée for its Portuguese rotisserie chicken and generous portions at an exceptional value. The poutine with chicken and chorizo is a standout, with rich sauce, crispy fries, and big servings that can feed two or more. Crowds and limited seating create long waits, but fast service and friendly staff help move things along, and the smoky, charcoal grilled chicken earns rave notes. A few visits mention dips in quality or packaging issues when ordering takeout, but the overall impression remains bold, flavorful and affordable, attracting locals and visitors for both classic and inventive combinations. Desserts like pastel de nata and coconut flan are well loved, and the menu's mix of poutine and chicken makes this a hearty, satisfying option.
I don't get the hype for the Portuguese poutine. Mine barely had any chicken & a few bites I came down on cartilage & a small bone, not pleasant. The sausage was just ok & the poutine was average. Service was efficient but the wait on line took awhile. This dish is very heavy & greasy & I could only finish half. The small order is large enough for a pair to share.
Mouth-wateringly good Portuguese rotisserie chicken. Very affordable. Their house poutine, with chicken, chorizo & piri-piri sauce, is iconic. Be prepared to wait in line. It's totally worth the wait.

I love Portuguese chicken & I love poutine, safe to say I loved the #8 chicken & sausage poutine here. It was a long wait even when we didn't start waiting outside, so be prepared. However, their poutine is my personal favourite in the city & well worth the wait.
The fries are potatoey, thick, but still crispy, the cheese curds are classic & squeaky, gravy reminded me of the flavourful sauce of a Portuguese francesinha, & the chicken & sausages were juicy & flavourful with spices & flame grilled essence. Great value as well.
Hooooly this food was simply amazing. ENORMOUS portions for the prices. The chicken & chorizo are delicious. Staff is nice & the whole place just smells great. I'd recommend trying a Sumol too if you've never had one. This is a must-try Portuguese chicken in Mtl, absolutely delicious & unbeatable calorie to dollar ratio.
Their chicken & chouriço poutine is crazy good. The large portion is perfect for 2-3 people. It can get pretty hot indoors with all the grilling - highly recommend taking your meal to La Fontaine park for a picnic on a nice day!

Best chicken & chorizo poutine in town. The spot if you're looking for that salty & rich flavour!! Very busy, but worth waiting 20 minutes to go eat in the park right after.
The quality for the price is outstanding! Great chicken! I've been here at least 20+ times & I've tried everything from the poutine to the salad, I have never had a bad experience here
Excellent taste. Had the small Portuguese poutine & egg tart. Portion was massive & the taste in both the chicken & the gravy itself has an excellent level of depth to it.
Their loaded poutine with their Portuguese chicken & chorizo is out of this world (& I am normally a poutine purest who doesn't like anything but a classic poutine). Their chicken plates are also delicious & their desserts hit the spot. Prices are extremely reasonable in a 2025 context.
We ordered take out chicken, poutine, & salad. The salad was great, fresh & lightly dressed. The poutine was everything you expect, & the chicken was delicious, well seasoned & perfectly cooked.
J'ai commandé le demi-poulet chez Ma Poule Mouillée & c'était absolument délicieux ! Le personnel était gentil & accueillant, & l'ambiance chaleureuse & animée a rendu l'expérience encore meilleure. Tout était parfait : la nourriture, le service & l'atmosphère. Je recommande vivement !
I ordered the half chicken at Ma Poule Mouillée & it was absolutely delicious! The staff were kind & welcoming, & the warm, lively atmosphere made the experience even better. Everything was perfect-great food, great service, & a great vibe. Highly recommended!
This is my favorite Portuguese chicken ever! The prices went up a little but still the best deal for the best portuguese chicken!Very highly recommended!
Fun, college vibe with amazing food! The chicken was moist & the skin was so crispy! We also enjoyed the chorizo, sandwich, poutine, & tart. Definitely recommend.
