Excellentes grillades, entre autres les calmars grillés & les côtelettes d'agneau, cuites a perfection. J'y reviendrai!View more
Ate there 6 times before writing a review. Hands down the best half chicken in Montreal. For only $25 at this moment.View more
C'était notre nième visite chez JANO après quelques années d'absence . Les peintures sur les murs ont changé , le personnel habituel aussi & le petit plat d'olives en apéro a disparu mais les calmars grillés sont toujours aussi bons. Alors pour un lunch portugais sans prétention, dans un resto encore agréable , on y revient .View more
Je sais que la nourriture est honnête mais ils abusent un peu sur les commandes à emporter. Je suis arrêté hier pour acheter des pâtisseries pour emporter. 20$ pour 6 bouchées. Le monsieur anglo me passe la machine interac, faut que je choisisse soit 15, 18 ou 20% de pourboire. Non mais pourriez vous svp être honnête pis pas presque forcer vos clients à vous payer 20% de plus qu'un prix déjà gonflé en offrant aucun service?View more

Excellente portugaise restaurant in plateau. I am their costumer for already more than 10 years. Very good & diversified grilled meat.View more
I was a regular in the 90s. I returned in September 2024, after 22 years. TOTAL DISAPPOINTMENT. The grilled calamari has nothing to do with what was served in the past. Tasteless slices of seafood. Tasteless. The same happened with the grilled chicken: zero taste. Jano's glorious past is down the toilet today. Bye Jano! Never again.View more

Ordered the food after my routine workout. the gentleman at the phone was super nice, also went to pick up & everyone was really welcoming, & the atmosphere looked cozy , however when I open the food to eat at home the chicken outer layer was burned.View more
Really loved this restaurant. Service was quick & great. Price is good & offers big portions. Fries were delicious & chicken was juicy. The only thing I wasn't crazy about was the grilled calmari. Other than that everything was great. Will definitely come again!View more

Sardines were great. Chips were super soggy & oily. Portions were enormous!View more
We didn't feel like waiting in line at a neighbouring restaurant, so we picked this restaurant right next door. It was after the lunch rush. As soon as we walked it, an employee loudly complained about it never ending. I found it quite rude & shocking but said nothing in the hopes he wasn't referring to more customers arriving. I did check the restaurant's opening hours online just in case they were closed from 3:00 to 5:00 p.m., but it said they were open. I even asked an employee if they were open to be extra sure. I hope we weren't intruding. If we were, they could have just pretended they were closed. The restaurant was almost empty save for a table of customers & 4 employees. An employee seated us right away,... next to a container that was catching water from the dripping air conditioner. An odd choice considering that all the other tables were free. After a few minutes, the employee from the beginning came to take our order. He & 2 other employees brought the entrées, main meal, drinks & dessert. The wait staff checked in & made sure we had everything we needed. The chicken was crispy & perfectly seasoned on the outside & tender & juicy on the inside. It paired perfectly with the soft bread from the table basket. I couldn't get enough of the thick, crispy-&-soft homemade potato chips with skins on the edges (portuguese potatoes). They're addictive. The pastel de nata (egg tart) was rich & flaky, & fresh custard oozed out with every bite. The flan was okay, but we were expecting a fully intact wedge like in the picture, & instead it looked as though someone had taken a big bite out of the tip. The kitchen should consider cutting it in a different shape. The decor, music & nature scenes were calming. I think we just caught the staff on an off moment.View more
