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.
Génial !! Découvert grâce à Phil Rosenthal, dans un épisode sur Montréal, nous avons adoré. Petite échoppe pleine de vie, le restaurant tout en longueur avec d'un côté les cuisiniers & serveurs & de l'autre cette longue, voir très longue file de clients ( voir très très longue) 😁. Les plats sont bons, généreux & tout ça au juste prix !!! La poutine est extra, le poulet aussi & les pastei de nata a tomber !!!

The Portuguese poutine is quite large portion. It's with their grilled chicken & sausage. We prefer animal style fries in comparison to poutine. We tried their chicken & Grillé sandwich as well. The food was too salty for us. The croissant was good.
This was some of the best chicken I've ever had! The sauce was packed with flavor, the meat was tender & the fries were the perfect compliment. My friend got the poutine & that is a must-try (just be prepared to take a nap after). The portions are HUGE, we could have easily shared an item - we ended up with a lot of leftovers which isn't always a bad thing.
El poutine de pollo y chorizo estaba muy rico (aunque un poco salado). Las porciones son grandes y el precio es justo. El pastel de nata es delicioso. Había bastante fila pero se mueve rápido ya que el servicio es ágil. Vale la pena.
Simply the best. I make it my mission to come here as much as I can when I visit Montreal. I got the small poutine & got two meals out of it. Pretty good for $14. I came at 1pm on a Sunday & was lucky to have no line. You order & then walk to the check out to pay. Restaurant can get quite warm due to the open kitchen. The food is too good. Only come if you are ready to enjoy yourself greatly.

Super generous portion of poutine, think it can be shared among two, maybe even three people if you're not starving & just want a snack. Chicken was very tender & tasty! We ordered ahead on the phone so didn't need to wait on the line outside. There's a separate one for that inside but it's not 100% clear so we ended up confirming with the kind cashier inside upon arrival in case anyone wants to go that route. Not sure if this always happens when you order ahead but by the time we got there (like 20 min later) we still had to wait a little as they didn't make it yet, understandably since they seemed to be extremely busy, but the benefit is that the dish was fresh!
The Portuguese chicken poutine is ridiculous. The small/petite is enough to split between 2 people. There is a long line but it moves quickly. The staff are nice. The interior is loud.
Only ordered the poutine with the whole fixings, their grilled chicken & sausage. It was definitely better than some other poutines I've had, so there's that. I really liked how the sausage has a bit of spice to it. I think poutine needs spice. Delicious! The small is $14, & is MORE than enough for two people.
Saw this spot from a Montreal local on YouTube & he was right, one of the most unorthodox but quality poutine you will ever have. I ordered a small Portuguese poutine & thank god I did because I barely finished the small. Really good bang for your buck & the Portuguese twist is a good thing to add to your Montreal list of spots to eat before you leave!
The poutine was ridiculously big & pretty good. It really all depends on whether you like their sauce, because it was on everything we ordered. You get lots of food & it is pretty good, but there is a line out the door & way too few seats for everyone. & it's very hot inside because they are grilling up the chicken right there & the AC can't keep up with that & all the people. My baby had to sit in my lap because there wasn't a highchair for her, or even a regular chair. I'd recommend taking this to go & ordering less than you think because the portions are huge. Ultimately I was just too hot & cramped to enjoy myself
Get the small! The sizing & portions of food given is HUGE. I got #11 Chorizo & chicken salad -- I really enjoyed the amount of onions given & loads of meat with it. It was a great surprise. My friends got the chorizo & chicken poutine... watching them eat made me full. The dessert was good if you're looking for a sweet treat! Overall great money value for the portions!

The line was 30 minutes in the afternoon of a Sunday. I expected more for the reviews of the chicken however the sauce was the star of the show of the poutine. The fries kept crispy for a long time. The tables do not get wiped for a while due to how busy they are so I would take the food & eat elsewhere. Would also order the egg tarts!
Despite a bit of a wait to get in, it was worth it. The chicken sandwich & poutine were both good. The portions were generous, & the prices were quite reasonable.
