Grilled sardines were dry & shrimp dish was swimming in oil. Not the best experience.

Delicious chicken! Their homemade spicy oil is incredible 🤩 I also highly recommend you try their shrimp entrée (we ate it so fast that we forgot to take pictures haha)

Great experience sitting outside & having grilled shrimp & squid with sangria. Service was good
Carlos
Amazing service ! Food very good !! They offer a dessert with a recipe that's more than 500 years old! The chef has been working for 30 years. The cuts of meat are made to order. Nelson served me, & he's one of the best people you can get! He speaks 8 languages! 10/10

Consistently one of the most reliable places to sit down for a reasonably priced Portuguese meal. Serving up one of the better rib steaks served in Montreal as well.
Try the Portuguese fries. A good change from regular french fries.

We didn't want to brave line up for Schwartz's & we were so glad that we stopped in. The food was excellent & the portions were quite generous. If you are in the area it might be a key move to skip the line at Schwartz's & get quick friendly service here at Jano. Our meal was less than $20 per person for chicken, salad & a generous serving of fries.

I discovered this restaurant by chance.
I went there with my family, the dishes were very delicious & plentiful, the waiters & the waitresses were available & very kind: one of them also told us an information about the city we had asked at the end of the dinner.
There's nothing to say in addition, I suggest you this restaurant, it's really worth it!

Fue nuestra primera visita a Montreal y nos topamos con Jano, el servicio super amigable, especialmente por parte del dueno, Nelson, quien nos conto sus historias y nos hizo pasar un rato agradable. Muy buen sabor de la comida con porciones generosas. El postre de Natas está delicioso!
