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.

Warmly decorated portuguese restaurant. It didn't look very busy on Friday night, service was quick. We got garlic shrimp appetizer & it was good, the grilled calamari didn't taste much, the rib steak although big was however bland & tasted like not marinated at all. Maybe that's how portuguese steak is supposed to be but we didn't like it at all, even with the spicy sauce. Overall it seems a bit overpriced.

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
