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.View more

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.View more

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!View more
