PORTUS 360 - TOWARDS NEW HEIGHTS! After several years in the heart of the Portuguese neighborhood in Montreal, gourmet chef Helena Loureiro’s address is transported to new heights, at the junction of the Downtown, Old Montreal and Griffintown districts. We shall receive you in this beautiful place, HIGHLY colorful, located on the 30th and 31st floors at 777, Robert-Bourassa Boulevard. Thanks to an ingenious 360-degree rotation system, you will take a "tour" of the city that can be found nowhere else in the greater metropolitan area.
Portus 360 offers a memorable Montreal dining experience with a breathtaking panoramic view as the restaurant slowly rotates, letting guests take in the skyline from every angle. The seafood focused menu is praised for freshness, creative presentation, and flavor, with many noting that the tasting menu provides a thorough tour of the kitchen’s strengths. The atmosphere is described as elegant and romantic, suited for special occasions, and the rotating platform adds a unique element to the evening. Service is consistently remarked as warm, attentive, and professional, though some reviews mention occasional slow pacing or minor gaps during busy times. While portions can be small for the price and a few dishes are described as not quite at the top notch, the majority highlight quality ingredients, thoughtful preparation, and memorable pairings with wines and desserts. Accessibility has mixed feedback, with some finding the entry and movement manageable and others calling out entry or seating challenges, and reservations are advised because the venue tends to be busy. Overall Portus 360 is seen as a standout destination in Montreal for those seeking a special night out, combining a dramatic view with refined cuisine and attentive service.
We went last Friday & enjoyed the Valentine's Day menu. We had a wonderful time! The food was excellent & tasty, although portions were a little small. The desserts were delicious! The restaurant rotates 360° in about 2hrs & allows to see a panoramic view of Montréal, especially impressive during nighttime! Our servers were very nice, patient, & caring. Bonus point for the women's bathroom which has an amazing view & the romantic playlist playing in occasion for Valentine's Day.
Le portus 360. J'ai adoré. La vue est magnifique & le service est 5 étoiles ++. Nous y sommes allé vendredi 16 janvier 2026. L'ambiance est très belle & les cadres d'oiseau sont magnifiques Nous avons pris le menu dégustation. Les petites bouchées & les desserts étaient plus qu'extraordinaire & en quantité plus que respectable. Mon seul bémol. Le plat d'espadon. Peut être que c'est mon goût mais c'est un poisson au goût prononcé & le fait de le griller c'est à mon avis une recette qui devrait être revue. On goûtait beaucoup le goût du grill. J'espère que cette critique sera constructive pour vous car je recommande vivement ce restaurant.

My meal was very good , I took the 120$ tasting menu option & the portions for certain items were extremely small but flavorful.
My waiter was seemingly new as he had issues communicating in english/french & mixed up the names of items multiple times , he named many types of fish for the fish dishes but was uncertain of what they were , finally the second last fish dish with the smoked leek oil was extremely salty , the fish was cooked to perfection but the salt overpowered the whole dish - the final dish being the short rib was fantastic & the highlight of the meal.
The dessert was really disappointing - pieces of maple cookie crumbles with grapes sliced in half & a Natas that is the same you get anywhere in plateau mont-royal amongst some macron - this dessert plate was just thrown together & really nothing made in house I can say that much.
They were missing some portuguese digestives / liquors from Douro region which I requested - I was surprised to know this as they offered me some regular French ones as an alternative .
Les plats sont uniques. On a pris les dégustations pour 7 plats (4 entrées + 1 plat principal de poisson + 1 plat principale de viande + dessert) pour 120$ (si le poisson est le choix du chef) ou 130$ (si le poisson est le thon) par personne.
BTW, J'aivais une diarrhée à la fin :(
It was a nice experience, decent Portuguese food & nice atmosphere. It was busy that evening such that we had to ask for balsamic vinegar to be added to olive oil, & ask for sharing fork more than once. The Serrano ham with asparagus salade was amazing, tartare de filet mignon was very tasty but a bit on the salty side, however the blood sausage was hard to comment. Paella was great but a bit too much watery with the rice; sea-bream was nicely cooked & crisp for the skin. Dessert was super cute. The rotation is like an hour for one full 360.
Nous nous y sommes rendus pour un dîner d'anniversaire en amoureux & le serveur nous a apporté une bougie avec le dessert, ce qui était une touche très appréciable sachant que je ne l'avais que mentionné lors de la réservation.
Nous avons testé le menu dégustation à 100$ qui était très complet & nous a permis de goûter à plusieurs spécialités différentes. Les quantités étaient parfaites. Cependant le poisson était légèrement trop cuit & les desserts, un peu brouillon, manquaient de délicatesse.
Le cadre était néanmoins super & le concept sympathique.
Notre serveur Émile était efficace & très attentionné, nous avons passé un agréable moment.

Portus 360 is a fantastic fine dining restaurant with breathtaking views, excellent food, & outstanding service. The portions tend to be on the smaller side but are flavorful, with a wide selection of seafood. The waitstaff was attentive, courteous, & proactive, ensuring a great experience.
The restaurant welcomes a diverse crowd, including groups of young friends, couples, families, & birthday celebrations. There is no formal dress code, making it a relaxed yet elegant destination. Parking in the underground lot costs between $10 & $19, depending on some rather unclear rules.
Even if you visit just for dessert & drinks, it's worth the trip. Guests are free to explore the restaurant to take in the stunning panoramic views.
On the downside, there is no kids' menu, & the dishes can be a bit heavy for those mindful of their calorie intake.
I highly recommend Portus 360 - just be sure to make a reservation, as it's always busy!
My fiancé & I went for my birthday, the ambiance & restaurant is nice however the service was not good.
We both ordered steaks, I asked for mine to be well done & it came to me rare. No waiter came to check on how the food was, after spending almost 10 minutes trying to signal down a waiter, they graciously replaced it. However, when it came back it was burnt on the outside & completely rare on the inside again.
I wasn't going to send it back a second time so I ate the extremely tiny portion of potatoes & vegetables (which reduced in size when they brought me a second steak) & I waited almost 20 minutes, not a single waiter asked how the food was or came to check on it. Finally I just told my finance to eat my steak, because I was getting really hungry & wanted to leave to buy food elsewhere
At the end, when a waiter finally came around to clear the plates- I very directly told them my experience & they said'oh I can get you a dessert' we declined & left. The manager was aware of this, at least 3 of the waiters were aware, no one cared at all.
We get steaks often when we go out & compared to other places & for a $200 dinner, I had higher expectations.
It honestly felt that it was over priced & not worth it- especially because of how poor the service was
Portus 360 - Where the Floor (& Your Heart) Spins with Joy!
Hold onto your forks, folks-Portus 360 isn't just dinner, it's a whole experience wrapped in elegance, sprinkled with laughter, & served with a view that'll make your jaw drop faster than you can say bacalhau à brás!
From the very moment we stepped inside, we knew we were in for something special. The panoramic views of Montreal? Unreal. Like,'Am I in a postcard?' kind of unreal! The rotating floor adds an extra touch of ✨magic✨-you get to enjoy the city skyline from every angle without even lifting your chair. Lazy? No. Classy? Absolutely!
Now let's talk food-because honey, these plates weren't just meals, they were edible art installations. Each dish was thoughtfully crafted, gorgeously presented, & bursting with authentic Portuguese flavors. Rich, delicate, bold, & heartwarming all at once. Don't come here expecting chicken nuggets or salmon poké bowls-Portus 360 is strictly Portuguese & proud of it. If you're vegan, you might want to give them a ring first to see what plant-based options they can magic up.
A little heads up: the portions are on the smaller side, but every bite is a flavor-packed masterpiece. It's quality over quantity, darling! & the drinks? Smooth, sophisticated, & dangerously easy to sip. The wine list was a dream & the dessert? Sweet heavens! I'd write sonnets about that custard tart.
But wait-let's give the true stars their standing ovation:
Emile, Omar, & Melody-you absolute legends! Emile & Omar made us feel like royalty, with service so attentive it felt like they were reading our minds (psychic waiter powers?). Melody? A ray of sunshine with sass, smarts, & the kind of charm that makes you want to ask her to join your table. These three didn't just serve us-they made the evening unforgettable.
So yes, it's a little pricey. But come on, you're not just paying for food-you're paying for a rotating skyline view, a masterclass in Portuguese cuisine, & service that could melt the iciest heart.
Would we come back? Try & stop us!
Would we recommend it? Only to people who like amazing food, great wine, top-tier service, & watching Montreal twinkle as the world spins slowly beneath your feet.
Ambiance: 10/10 - Chic, romantic, & just the right amount of'treat yourself'
Food: 9/10 - Flavor bomb in every bite
Service: 1000000/10 - Yes, that's the correct number of zeroes
Views: 360 degrees of YES
Final Verdict: If you want a night that'll make your Instagram pop & your tastebuds sing-Portus 360 is the move.
Now excuse me while I dream about that rotating chocolate mousse…
C'était excellent le service l'ambiance & la cuisine étais extraordinaire.Il avais plein de goût dans ma bouche en même temps.Le repas que j'ai commander est un plateau de fruit de mer & pour le dessert c'était le choix du chef.

Wonderful spot to bring guests, unfortunately the food is not great. It's rather poor & they should probably get audited to make sure it's sanitary. However, it still deserves 2 stars for the service & atmosphere. Wonderful place to go for dessert & coffee.
What a beautiful place! We reserved a table for a special occasion, treat ourselves It was a great experience to come here. So cool to have a delicious meal while the floor rotates, then you allow to enjoy the 360 panoramic view of Montreal! We had the tasting fish menu, it's a little pricey but it's worth it! The wine was nice ! The dessert was yummy! The service was excellent! Chic ambiance ! We will come back!

Excellent service d'Omar, qui n'était même pas notre serveur, mais dont le service était authentique & sympathique. Il a rendu l'expérience meilleure ! Le dessert, crème du paradis, était excellent, malgré la poudre au fond qui n'était pas très agréable. L'entrée de calmars frits n'était pas exceptionnelle; je m'attendais à mieux :/ Le plat principal, arroz de marisco, a également été une déception, Ça manquait de saveur, bien que la portion soit généreuse d'ailleurs j'ai beaucoup aimé la présentation :). La décoration est magnifique ! Mais bravo quand même à l'équipe !

We did the tasting menu. In a word, fantastic. An amuse bouche. two cold appetizers, two warm appetizers, a main & a dessert. Our server was exceptional. We did the seafood option. I highly recommend this if you visit this restaurant. The fact that it is a revolving restaurant also gives it high praise.
Je suis récemment allée au Portus360 avec l'intention de passer une belle soirée avec ma cousine en visite. Malheureusement, notre expérience a été loin d'être à la hauteur de la réputation du restaurant. Dès notre arrivée, nous avions prévu de commander plusieurs entrées pour goûter à une variété de saveurs. Cependant, le serveur nous a informées que, selon le permis du restaurant, il était obligatoire de commander des plats principaux, ce qui nous a paru très étrange & inapproprié. Nous n'étions pas intéressées par les plats principaux, mais on nous a littéralement poussées à en commander. Si l'objectif était de nous faire dépenser plus, j'aurais préféré que cela soit dit plus directement, par exemple avec un montant minimal à respecter. Le service a rendu l'expérience particulièrement inconfortable, surtout chaque fois que nous refusions des cocktails ou suggestions d'ajouts à notre commande. Le serveur nous regardait avec une expression de déception qui devenait de plus en plus gênante. Finalement, nous avons cédé & commandé des plats, plus pour ne pas gâcher la soirée de ma cousine que par réel intérêt. Nous avons opté pour le riz aux fruits de mer, mais cela s'est révélé bien ordinaire : les fruits de mer manquaient de saveur, le riz était dur & manquait cruellement d'assaisonnement. Un véritable contraste avec les petites mignardises que nous avons prises pour le dessert, qui étaient, quant à elles, délicieuses. En revanche, il faut admettre que la vue panoramique est à couper le souffle, ce qui a été le seul véritable point positif de la soirée. Mais entre un service très décevant & des plats loin d'être à la hauteur, je ne retournerai probablement pas au Portus360. Si vous recherchez un endroit pour profiter d'une belle vue, cela peut valoir le détour, mais pour une belle expérience, je vous recommanderais de chercher ailleurs.
Went out for my Valentine's date & ordered the special menu for the valentines 6-course meal. It was absolutely delicious & I was pretty full by the end. My favourite courses were definitely the ceviche, meat & the cutest & tastiest dessert. Can't wait to go back!
Service was amazing, a kind & respectful waitress. The view is spectacular. Food is above good, but nothing exceptional (except for the desserts that are crazy good).
Business dinner with clients. I really didn't know what to expect, my past experiences with revolving restaurants have been mediocre at best, but I was happy to learn that this place is an offshoot of Helena, a well established Portuguese restaurant in town. As much as I didn't feel comfortable with the stuffyness of the overall atmosphere - it felt like those formal dinners on cruise ships - the service & food made up for it. Some members of our party have dietary restrictions, & the waitstaff took great care of them, & all of us as well. The wine picked from the impressive list of Portuguese private imports was perfect. I had the cod croquettes, they were good, nicely presented but I would have liked more dipping sauce. The seafood rice platter was very generous, & the sauce was spicy & flavorful. I wasn't really hungry for dessert, but I'm glad I tried the natas, they were probably the best I ever had, buttery & creamy & delicious. Great place to take your boomer relatives for their definition of a "fancy dinner", but with an added bonus that the food is actually good 😊.
