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.

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.

Perdu dans Montréal après avoir fait le Mont Royal, je me suis rappelé d'une vidéo de Gurky & je suis descendu jusqu'à ce restaurant & ça valait le détour !!
Ma poule mouillée fait la meilleure poutine que j'ai mangée, je ne pense pas retrouver le niveau ailleurs avec leur poulet braisé qui est incroyable !!
Je vous le recommande fortement !

Poulet Mouillé is an absolute must visit for anyone craving authentic, comforting Portuguese style charcoal food in Montreal. On my recent visit, I ordered their famous chicken & chorizo poutine, & it truly hit the spot. Just be prepared for a bit of a wait when you arrive, as there is usually a bustling line of about 15 to 30 minutes just to place your order. However, the kitchen staff moves like lightning; once you finally put in your order, it takes only about 5 minutes to get your hands on the hot food.Paying 20 dollars for such a large poutine is 100 percent worth it because it is easily good for two people to share. The base of the dish was flawless. The golden fries were cooked to perfection, holding their crispy texture beautifully. What I appreciated most was the savory sauce; it was wonderfully flavorful without being overly salty, so you never get bored eating it. The grilled chicken was undeniably the star of the show because it was exceptionally juicy & packed with smoky flavor. The chorizo was just meh not bad, but not outstanding either. Still, this comforting dish is a total winner.

Quite possibly the best charcoal chicken I have ever had. Incredible smoky charcoal flavour. Poutine was definitely the best I have ever had. Chips are perfectly seasoned & the gravy was perfect. Salads a little bland but you don't come here for the salad. If you visit Montreal, this is a place you must eat at. Expect long lines though. Gets very busy & limited seating. Absolutely worth it though. Amazing.

Service has gone downhill lately. This is the 2nd time the lady forgot to add sauce on my order to go. Came home to bland dry chicken…. I never have this problem when the owner serves my plate. Waste of my hard earned money again!
