It does not look like much, but great food, everything was fresh, delicious, huge portions of fries. It is a bit hard to find parking in the neighborhood, a lot of construction as well, it does not help businesses.

We decided on a last-minute meal of chicken & salad, & this place didn't disappoint. We were seated quickly. The grilled chicken roasted to pretty perfect, not dry, the fries were crispy & delicious, the warm bread crunchy & although the salad had a bit too much vinegar, still tasty. & that hot spice tho! While the food was tasty , our waiter was rude, slow, & inattentive. Had to ask for water ,utensils & the bill , 2x's. Fortunately, another younger waiter who brought our food , provided excellent service with a smile. Overall, imo, this was one of the two best fast food Portuguese chicken in Montreal. Coco Rico being the other.

Simplicity at its best. The waiter was excellent (I rarely get to say that), the food was delicious & I recommend ordering their piri-piri sauce in a jar to go as well. A must try for anyone craving real portuguese flavors ✌️

One of the only restaurants left in Montreal that still has the same portion size from 2019. Price went up a titch, but that's to be expected. Still phenomenal. Great chicken, amazing ribs, love the spicy house sauce. Highly recommend.

Arguably worth coming to Montreal just to come here. Incredible food. Servers proud of the food they make. Been to 3 star Michelin restaurants much less gratifying than here. Don't give it a second thought.

I am lost for words & so hesitant to write this because I want this place to stay a secret - MAGNIFICENT. From the warmest welcome of the most lovely staff to the bread & the sangria & the lamb & the rabbit, & such good value - absolutely incredible. Thank you. Obrigado. Thank you a hundred times. Do not change a thing. We will be back for dessert ASAP ❤️
