Overall, reviews describe Monteiro Express as a popular fast-casual spot offering flavorful, well-prepared dishes with generous portions and good value. The chicken is repeatedly praised for being juicy and tender, with textures that fall off the bone and sauces that add depth, while express bowls and half-chicken or chicken combo plates deliver satisfying meals at affordable prices. Poutines, fries, and other sides are often highlighted for quality and variety, and the atmosphere is described as warm and welcoming with fast, attentive service whether dining in or taking out. Many customers note a strong consistency, a friendly staff, and a reliable experience they would recommend to others and return for; some mentions of occasional delivery hiccups or limited menu options appear, but they do not overshadow the overall positive impression. Overall sentiment is that Monteiro Express is a top option in the area for flavorful, hearty meals that balance taste, portions, and price.
Ordered through doordash yesterday. I got the quarter legs with extra protein. The extra protein were small pieces for $6. & my plate came to $20! The chicken is flavorful but the rice lacks taste. I wish they added a sauce on the rice because it was kind of dry. Potatoes are regular. There should be a sauce on the side that comes complimentary with the meal. Salad was ok.

I had Monteiro yesterday for the first time ordered through Uber, a 2 for 1 on the TexMex bowl.
The food is delicious, a lot of flavor but i can't justify the heavy price (18.99) for a small portion of chicken. The ratio of rice/ sauce vs protein was too high.
I will try again but what i had yesterday was good but not worth it.
I do like the idea & Portuguese food in general. I will give it another try!
Honestly if you were thinking poulet rouge, think again, half the price, double the flavor, juicy chicken & fresh vegetables, my go-to healthy fast food
Super bon, le monsieur est tellement gentil. Il a accepté de prendre notre commande quelques minutes avant la fermerture pas comme leur voisin. Je recommande!!!

I ordered a bol piri. my bad i ordered the spicy one.
But the owner saw it that i cant have the spicy one & he gave me another bol with no spice.
It is hard to find people with such good heart these days. Thank you brother 👍
Excellent restaurant je viens ici pas mal de fois il était super bon & aussi propre le service est super & aussi sont halal & proche de station côte vertu je recommande fortement 😊
Les ailes de poulet étaient bien juteuses & savoureuses, par contre, il y avait des frites dans le plat qui n'étaient pas assez cuites & leur portion est assez minime…
