Seriously incredible food & the nicest service. Everything is gluten free except the bread. They only fry fries so I was able to eat them too as a celiac. 10/10 would come back. The chicken was so flavourful & juicy.

The food was very delicious, & the staff was friendly. I tried both the fish & chicken, & they were good. Although there is no halal sign, the staff indicated that the chicken is halal.

Absolutely loved the Pork steak, it reminded me of how my great grandma used to cook pork, the waiter was super friendly, shared stories about Portugal & food. Even suggested the best wine to go with all that delicious food. Highly recommended.

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.
