Came in at the end of the night as they were stacking the chairs away & the service & food were still 10/10. The poutine is great, they grilled the chicken to order.

Monteiro - Portuguese Flavor, Fast & Full of Heart 🇵🇹🔥

I was invited to the Rachel location of Monteiro to try their $10.99 Express Menu, & honestly? It was such a cozy, flavorful surprise. This Portuguese spot is family-owned, halal, & uses fresh, never-frozen chicken & you can taste the care in every bite.

Every plate is customizable to your spice level, so I tried one of each sauce to really get the full experience.

Here's what I tasted:

🍗 Cuisse Express (BBQ Sauce) - Juicy grilled chicken leg with that sweet-but-balanced BBQ glaze. The fries actually taste like real potatoes (always a win), the salad had a light, refreshing vinaigrette, & the rice gave Spanish rice energy.

🍟 Poutine Express (Mild) - My top pick. The fries were golden & crispy, & the combo of squeaky cheese curds, juicy chicken, & rich gravy hit every comfort note.

🌶? Piri Express (Spicy) - This one's for the rice lovers. I went all in with the spiciest sauce, & it delivered bold heat with just enough creaminess to keep things balanced. The sweet corn in the veggie mix paired beautifully with the beans & rice… cozy, filling, & full of flavor.

🧄 Algerian Sauce - I used this for dipping fries & it was so good .. garlicky, spiced, & rich without being overpowering.

🥤 Drinks - I usually go for passionfruit, but the Sumol orange soda surprised me in the best way. It's sweetened with sucralose instead of sugar, so there's a little extra sweetness at the end.

🍮 Pastéis de Nata - Soft, buttery, creamy. A lovely finish to a spice-filled meal.

📝 Side note: I'm not usually a rice girl, so I naturally leaned toward the options with potatoes & they didn't disappoint. If you're not into spice, go for BBQ or mild, but if you like a little heat ? Go for spicy .. The piri piri brings it.
