Review Summary

Overall, reviews for Restaurant Emilia show a mix of strong flavors and concerns about price and portion size, with many dishes praised for bold spice and depth, especially bowls with chorizo and spicy sauces, while some items feel overpriced for their size. The signature hot sauce is repeatedly highlighted for flavor and consistency, with several diners noting it as a reason to return or even drive from afar to stock up. There are occasional issues such as dry chicken, missing sauce or utensils, and a few service hiccups when the cashier system is down, but the atmosphere is described as lively and part of the experience. Taken together, the impressions point to a place worth revisiting to explore more on the menu, particularly for fans of spicy, flavorful bowls and sauces.

Came for the delicious (chicken & chorizo) poutine. Stayed for the excellent spicy sauce.

I tried their Chorizo bowl(rice + salad) with spicy sauce & it was delicious!! The rice was very flavourful
One of the best meals I had in Montreal. A must try if you're into bowls.

Disapointed. Ordered a chicken with spicy sauce & utensils. Got home. No sauce... no utensils. So i ate my dry chicken & cold fries & it was probably close to the worst portuguese chicken i ever had.

We liked the setting & how many options were inside- very relaxed & everyone could get something they liked. We ordered the spicy chicken & shrimp with rice & salad. The food was great, with a good amount of spice. The girl working the counter was not the friendliest though & was off putting.
