Porto Mar is a true Old Montreal classic - an upscale yet cozy Portuguese seafood restaurant that has been around for over 20 years, & it still delivers the same quality & authenticity it's known for. It's the perfect spot for family dinners, after?work meals, or bringing someone you want to impress.
The atmosphere is warm & elegant, & the menu is a seafood lover's dream. They offer a vast selection of fresh options, including several catch?of?the?day dishes that highlight just how high?quality their ingredients are. The food has that refined, comforting feel that makes you instantly understand why this place has lasted so long.
The fish & seafood rice was exactly as I remembered it from years ago - rich, flavorful, & reminiscent of true homemade Portuguese cooking. Others at the table ordered the sardines, which were big, bold, & full of flavor, exactly the way proper Portuguese sardines should be.
We chose the table d'hôte, which is absolutely worth it. For just a little more, you get an appetizer & dessert. The chorizo & cod croquettes were delicious, & the desserts were a perfect finish. The lemon mousse surprised everyone - even someone who normally avoids lemon loved it - & the chocolate mousse was rich & satisfying.
They also offer a signature cocktail menu, adding a classy touch to the whole experience.
Overall, Porto Mar is a hidden gem in the Old Port that continues to impress after all these years. Authentic cuisine, fresh seafood, warm service, & a timeless atmosphere. I would 100% come back.

We had an amazing experience at Porto Mar. The the fish & rice dish felt like real home cooking & sardines were super flavorful (in the best, authentic way). We had a starter of chorizo was also a standout.
The table d'hôte is definitely worth it. For just a few dollars more you get a starter, a generous main meal, & dessert.
We tried the chocolate mousse & frozen lemon dessert (highly recommended). It was the perfect finish!
For a spot in Old Montreal, the prices are very fair, portions are big, & the atmosphere is relaxed-great for a date night or just a nice meal out.
The atmosphere is relaxed & inviting, making it a great spot for a date night, tourists exploring Old Montreal, or really anyone who loves Portuguese food, whether it's seafood or meat. The service was fantastic, & we even had the chance to meet the owners, who were some of the kindest & most welcoming people you could hope to meet.
We highly recommend this place! It's a gem.

Went here last night in the Old Port & had such a great experience at Porto Mar. You need to check them out ASAP!
Our server Alex was super chill & attentive, & one of the owners, Melanie, came by & was incredibly kind. We even got the chance to speak with the chef, which made the whole experience feel really personal.
Food-wise, everything was fresh & full of flavor. The spicy shrimp were a standout so delicious, I'd go back just for those. I had the turbot (yes, it's a real fish 😂) & it was cooked perfectly. The potatoes on the side were also amazing.
We also had a seafood medley with rice (loaded with clams, mussels, shrimp, salmon, cod basically everything) & it was super saucy & satisfying.
Drinks were on point too loved my old fashioned.
To finish, we had a porto-braised pear with ice cream & it was honestly the perfect dessert.
Beautiful location, especially if you can grab a window seat. Definitely a spot we'll be going back to.
5 little grilled shrimp around a stack of rice for $34 bucks, eh. The balsamic snails were good, but the grilled sardines were a little fishy & we left hungry. Nice ambiance & service though. From what I hear, family owned.
We had a grand time at Porto Mar. Started with a Porto Tonico, had the cod fritters, the seafood rice & finished it off with flan & a frozen lemon dessert. We loved everything, but we particularly enjoyed the seafood rice as it featured a nice mix of fish & seafood.
Porto Mar is my home away from home. Not only is the service & ambiance TOP, the chef is a brilliant Saucier & cooks meat & fish to perfection. It's one of the cities' best kept secrets!

The fish & seafood rice is amazing. Sort of like a wet paella. The only negative is how uncomfortable the chairs are. Extremely old chairs with springs that are uncomfortable.
Amazing atmosphere & service. My wife wanted a fish dish, & she enjoyed it immensely - obviously their specialty. As a vegan, they were able to prepare a special dish of stir fried vegetables with olive oil - an amazing dish. I love restaurants that can quickly come up with something, & it showed they did it with care - thank you. I finished with a specialty coffee. We will definitely drop in whenever we are in town.
This place was wonderful from the waiter mike to the cook/owner luis alberto Thank you for supporting us & he is he best the service the taste, the service was the best all was the very best... This is the best restaurant in Montreal. It's a must! We came two times within the 5 days of our visit. The fish was fresh & the service was spectacular.

A veritable institution for Portuguese cuisine in Old Montreal, Porto Mar offers all the classics you'd expect. The setting is in keeping with those original stone-brick buildings accented with wood trim offering a somewhat somber moody atmosphere. All very historic! Given the configuration of the room, there are several seats at the front with large windows facing d'Youville street & then a cozy similar sized section in the back (itself divided into two by a walkthrough zone) deep into the brick & old wood look. For our meal we opted for the table d'hote...We started with the Caldo Verde Soup (very good but could have been a bit more flavorful) & the Mixed Salad (it was a mixed salad). For our mains we had the Grilled Half Chicken (very moist & tender meat) & the Fish of the Day - Cod (also very good) with a small serving of potatoes & vegetables on the side. Dessert was a traditional & very good Creme Caramel (Flan) & the Chocolate Mousse (good). Service was friendly & helpful with the meal being served promptly. Enjoy!
I have tried a variety of dishes: calamari, shrimps, & grilled sardines. The sardines weren't fresh enough unfortunately. Which is a risk to take & I was informed that they do not arrive frozen. Small fish is hard to store fresh & taste good only of served on the first 2-3 days after caught. So this one is on me. Calamari was a bit rubbery too. I do need to speak highly of the service though: polite, attentive, & friendly.
We had the most amazing meal! Such fresh fish & the spicy shrimp are amazing! Best deal in the Old Port for price & quality! The Cod & Swordfish were amazing!
One of the best Portuguese restaurants in Montreal. Always consistent in its presentation, quality & service. The fish selection is diversified & appealing.
The location adds to the traditional charm of the restaurant.
