Fries are good & crispy, unseasoned though, could use a little salt. The piri piri sauce is very good & flavourful. The chicken is delicious but a bit dry. The chorico is huge & delicious. Overall good food that I would try again.

Decent poutine here. Cheese was good texture & lighter in taste. Gravy was not too heavy. Good amounts of chicken!

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.
