We had an excellent meal & the service was spectacular by Amber. She was very friendly & helpful. We both had the catch of the day & it was delicious. Would highly recommend & if I lived here, I would definitely go back often.
I must admit that my expectations were high heading into Porto Mar, everything we had eaten in Montreal so far had been outstanding.
While the seats show the age of the place & really need to be replaced, the service & explanation of the food & wine list was excellent.
Unfortunately the starters were mediocre & our calamari in the main meals was over cooked, however, the shrimp, peri-peri sauce & veggies were all fantastic.
Overall a decent meal for a reasonable price, with the potential to be so much more
