What reviews say

Ma Poule Mouillée is widely celebrated for its exceptional charcoal-grilled Portuguese chicken, which is consistently described as juicy, tender, and incredibly flavorful. Many visitors consider the Portuguese-style poutine, topped with generous portions of chicken and chorizo, to be a standout dish and a Montreal must-try, offering remarkable value for its massive portion sizes. While the restaurant is often very busy, leading to inevitable queues and limited seating, the service remains impressively fast and efficient. Many patrons recommend ordering for takeout to enjoy at a nearby park, especially during peak hours. Though experiences can occasionally vary regarding seasoning or wait times, the overall consensus is that the high-quality food and generous quantities make it a highly recommended dining destination.

First I must say for value this place does it right. Very large portion, it was impossible to finish! Bring tupperware...
However a few things you should bear in mind:
1. Almost nowhere to sit so take out is kind of a must if you want to eat peacefully.
2. Crowds of young snotty people thinking they're all that. Lots of pushing & shoving to get a seat. Also saw people butting in line a lot.
3. Lastly, & more importantly, while the portions are massive, the poutine was a let down. The gravy wasn't super hot so the curds remained as blocks. The chicken was great but there was more fries/curds/chorizo than chicken. My friend had the whole chicken & it was quite nice but again not piping hot. So maybe come during non rush hour & maybe things will be hot.

Tellement d'attention est accordée à la banquise que le restaurant juste en face est souvent négligé alors qu'il mériterait qu'on s'y attarde. La poule mouillé est incroyable autant pour son énorme poutine que pour son délicieux poulet.

Is it even a trip to the Plateau if you don't stop at Ma Poule Mouillée? 🍗🔥 @mapoulemouillee

There's a reason the line is always out the door! From that signature charcoal-grilled Portuguese chicken to what many call the best poutine in Montreal (that spicy chorizo topping is a game changer), every bite is worth the wait. 🍟🧀

Did you know? Ma Poule Mouillée is famously located right across the street from Romados, creating one of the most delicious'chicken rivalries' in the world. Whether you're here for the classic quarter-chicken leg or the massive'Poutine Grande,' you're tasting a true Montreal landmark. 🇨🇦✨

Grab a seat, soak up the smells of the wood-fired grill, & don't forget the extra hot sauce! 🌶?

I recently returned here for the first time in about 10 years & was extremely disappointed. The poutine was not the miracle I tasted the first time & my chicken thigh meal was no better as the chicken just tasted greasy & I could barely taste the spicy piri piri sauce I asked for. The rice I got also tasted very bland.

This was a very strong disappointment for me. I expected them to live up to their fantastic reputation & it didn't even come close.

I'm genuinely baffled.

Incredible food, great service, massive (MASSIVE) portions. The larger poutine was shared between three adults & was still too much to finish.

This was a recommendation from a local cabbie on our way to LA Banquise (sp?) & the suggestion was spot on.

Our spread of pork, chicken, & chorizo was delicious. Best fries we've had in Montreal. I bought one of each of their sauces which I do not have words to describe the flavor it imparted on me. The place filled up quick after we ordered, but the line moved super fast. Incredible.

This place is absolute worst for the reviews & hype . We got whole chicken & 2 chicken poutines. The chicken is tooooo salty (not the sauce but the meat itself ) . Poutines are better at McDonalds than here. Not worth the buck & for the people who saw it on YouTube & want to try. Go try some local places who serve the best poutine . Place is over hyped for the shitty meals they serve
