I will admit, the chicken up front smelled & looked delicious, but we only stopped in for drinks & dessert. The sangria felt a bit watered down, & the pastel de nata's were not my favourite. Service was lovely.

Entrées généreuses, calamars grillés avec une sauce délicieuse. Les sardines sont excellentes, 4 par portion. Le Pastel de Nata chaud servi avec cannelle, comme au portugal. Prix & service raisonnables.
Je viens d'y retourner 4 ans plus tard. Les portions sont généreuses, même trop un plat pour deux c'est suffisant. Les plats viennent avec une salade individuelle. C'est un endroit simple & tranquille. Dommage que les tentacules ne soient pas incluses dans le calmar grillé, c'est toujours un plus. Le poulet grillé est vraiment très bon. Je ne comprends pas ceux qui ont fait des commentaires très négatifs, la place est très bien & les plats somples & goûteux. Je laisse vos yeux apprécier !

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!

We love Portuguese food & we have visited many restaurants but for chicken, hands down the best place in Montreal for Portuguese chicken. Their friend chips are outstanding & not sure where they get their Pasteis de Nata from but they are outstanding of this world. Our good friends introduced us to this family restaurant so now we will go back with our family 💖

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.

Walked in here to find a quick place to eat, & I was pleasantly surprised at the fast service & the delicious charcoal grilled chicken platters. I had to come back for more with my family, they all loved it! Great service & great food! Pastel de Nata is the best I ever had

Excellent restaurant portugais bien réputé & établie à Montréal depuis bientôt 50 ans. Le service est très rapide & agréable. Le poulet fond dans la bouche & est succulent. Même chose pour le steak, les frites & au dessert les pastels de Natas sont bonnes
