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.

Review Summary

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. Other feedback points to occasional issues with order accuracy, food temperature, or preparation, though the consensus remains that it is a popular spot for tasty meals and exceptional house-made sauces.

Nous habitons à 9 minutes, la commande est arrivée chez nous exactement 15 minutes après qu’on ait commandé. (un lundi soir) la livraison la plus rapide de notre vécu 😅

J’ai commandé sur DoorDash & c’était quand même décevant sans rentrer dans les détails. Assiette Poulet / Chorizo & Crevette / Poulet.

Belle découverte non loin du parc Jarry à Montréal.
Petit resto de quartier sans prétention mais avec de belles couleurs du Portugal en saveurs.
Les portions sont excellentes pour les prix.
Personnel très convivial & accueillant.
Seul bémol le stationnement alors ne soyez pas trop pressé.
Je vous invite à faire un tour.

Tout était très confus dans le service. Staff novice. Très long pour un service comptoir. Passablement onéreux pour un produit ordinaire.

Very nice & comfortable place to eat, plenty of variety. We went specifically for their Vegan Chicken sandwich. Nicely seasoned with a Portuguese bun & the seasoned fries are of the chart. Everyone enjoyed the meal & our non vegan guest loved there chicken legs. I will definitely go back again & looking forward to our next visit. Just an FYI if your visiting the city & don’t read French the staff are so amazing & walk you through the French menu.

Ce resto ne fait pas une bonne représentation des restaurants portugais. Aucunes épices trop d'huile & le service est horrible. La serveuse touche trop la nourriture.
