About

Restaurant Emilia specializes in authentic Portuguese charcoal-grilled chicken prepared with traditional spice marinades and open-fire techniques. The menu centers on succulent poultry that undergoes a slow-roasting process to achieve a perfectly crispy exterior and tender texture. Beyond these signature protein offerings, the establishment features hearty portions of crispy fries topped with savory gravy and fresh cheese curds. This culinary approach bridges the gap between classic Mediterranean flame-cooking and local Quebec comfort food favorites. Guests find a focused selection of sides that complement the dominant grill-centric theme while maintaining efficiency. The dining space prioritizes utility and speed, catering to patrons seeking high-quality roasted meats and bold, savory flavors. Each preparation reflects a commitment to core ingredients without unnecessary complexity or elaborate presentation rituals.

Restaurant Emilia is frequently praised for its delicious, authentic Portuguese dishes and flavorful chicken, with many guests highlighting the quality of the food and the welcoming atmosphere. While many reviews celebrate the professional and friendly service, there is a recurring concern regarding inconsistent portion sizes and rising prices, leading some long-time patrons to feel less satisfied than in the past.

j'ai parfois du poulet carbonisé. Je sais qu'ils veulent s'assurer que le poulet soit bien cuit,mais parfois c'est immangeable. Aucun problème pour le reste tout est bon.

We ordered the bowls for takeout. It was flavorful, but the downside is that it's extremely salty. I can literally make the same portion of unseasoned chicken & rice & mix it together & it'll be perfect. This amount of salt is not healthy.

Service & location are good. Cashiers are generally friendly & things move quickly. However, twice now I have been served undercooked fries in my poutine...they still had a crunch. Bad. Maybe a little unlucky, but I'll be back. Food is generally good.

I order from here for our office at least once a month. Food's great & I never get any complaints. The regular chicken plate, crispy chicken sandwich, homemade chips & roasted potatoes are all really good.
