About

Ma Poule Mouillée specializes in authentic Portuguese charcoal-grilled chicken prepared with traditional spice rubs and open-flame cooking methods. The menu centers on succulent rotisserie poultry served alongside generous portions of poutine topped with chorizo, sautéed greens, and seasoned fries. Each order emphasizes robust flavors developed through high-heat grilling that renders skin crisp while keeping meat tender. The kitchen balances these bold proteins with side dishes like creamy coleslaw and classic salads to complete the meal. Patrons consume these hearty offerings within a functional space characterized by communal setups and efficient service flows. This establishment remains a destination for those seeking straightforward preparations of Iberian-inspired grilled favorites served without unnecessary complication or pretense. The commitment to consistent heat management and quality sourcing defines the primary culinary output of this venue.

Review Summary

Ma Poule Mouillée is widely celebrated for its exceptional charcoal-grilled Portuguese chicken and generous, flavor-packed poutine topped with chorizo. Visitors frequently praise the massive portion sizes, which offer incredible value for the money, and the authentic, smoky quality of the meat. While the restaurant is consistently busy and often requires waiting in a line, many guests find the experience well worth the time, especially when taking their meals to a nearby park to enjoy. Although some diners have noted occasional issues with service flow, limited indoor seating, or inconsistent seasoning, the vast majority of feedback highlights the restaurant as a must-visit destination in Montreal for a satisfying and comforting meal.

One of the best chicken meals I've tried in Montréal. They use a charcoal grill, which gives the chicken an amazing flavor. If you're into poutine, definitely give it a try! you can get it with chicken & sausage, & it's delicious.

Believe the hype & come here when you're hungry. Generous, moist chicken that doesn't break the bank. The staff was efficient, welcoming & warm. The line is long, but they have the system perfected. We were the 4th group outside the door, but we were ordering within 10 min.
Inside is alot more spacious than you'd think by looking at the outside.
We shared the #2 Louis Cyr which is 1/2 a whole chicken served with abundant fries along with salad with tomatoes.
Get it spicy! It's not really spicy. It's a nice flavor & the spice does not linger at all.
We knew this place was good when we were on a food tour at a different place & a random local guy said to come here.
Delicious!

Can't go wrong at this MTL staple, get the poutine for $19 & share with several people. The line is worth the wait. Also if they have any left, pick up a Massa (sweet bread cake) & enjoy with your coffee the next morning

5 étoiles pour l'opulence, car les portions sont gigantesques. Large choix de dessert & à bon prix.
Les taxes sont aussi incluses + pas de tips pseudo forcés à la caisse. Muito obrigado por isso!

Downgrading because it's more expensive now & the chickens are smaller, really good flavor though.
