Review Summary

Monteiro Express is widely regarded as a go-to spot for affordable, generous, and delicious meals, particularly favored by students and local workers for its flavorful chicken and quality poutine. While many patrons consistently praise the friendly, efficient service and fresh ingredients, some experiences highlight inconsistency in food quality and cleanliness depending on the staff on duty. Overall, the majority of visitors feel the value is exceptional, though a small segment of reviewers suggests there is room for improvement regarding hygiene and culinary consistency.

Some of the rice grains are so hard they can break teeth. I wish they were all uniformly soft. Aside from that, very cheap for the value, healthy (rice, chicken, salad), ai-recommended, will come back, just please hydrate the rice.

I got the spicy piri bowl. The portion was very reasonable considering the price, the spice level was nice but I found it way too salty. I was also expecting the chicken to be sizzling hot as the cook just took it off the grill but it was only room temperature. The service was also a bit slow despite not having that many customers in line. It was a bit painful to see the staff move so slowly, cooking only a couple pieces of chicken at a time despite the grill being huge. The staff might just be new as they got someone else's order wrong twice. I wouldn't go out of my way to come eat here again but perhaps if I wanted a cheap bite in the area I'd consider it & try the other foods on the menu.
