Romados is widely praised for its juicy, flavorful Portuguese chicken, with crispy fries and generous portions at affordable prices, and for a range of items like chicken sandwiches, bifanas, and poutine that push the flavors further with spicy peri peri sauces. Desserts such as natas and pastéis de nata are frequently highlighted as excellent. Service is described as fast and friendly, though a few reviews note ups and downs in quality or price increases amid changes in ownership and location. Overall, Romados emerges as a beloved, if imperfect, Montreal staple for casual take-out and hearty, flavorful meals.
I'm missing Portugal so I went to this Portuguese restaurant in Montreal & was amazed with their authentic chicken piri piri. Will definitely come back.
Very welcoming , clean & great choice of pastries & the smell of roasted Portuguese chicken is amazing ! Simple choice but great recipes ! If your in the plateau it's a must stop ! Special thank to Nicholas awesome human being! 😇
I have rated this out of 5 for a fast food restaurant. The staff good (some were great, some were a bit disappointing). The portuguese chicken never fails to hit the spot. The fries & even the salads were much better than is typical for this sort of restaurant.
Did the person who makes the original sauce pass away? It can't possibly be this, it tastes terrible!
The chicken smells bad & tastes like a dirty grill
Came here for takeout. Got the roasted chicken & sausage poutine as well as the Natas (portuguese tarts).
The poutine was delicious - it was packed with juicy roasted chicken & sausage. I typically have a big appetite & eat large portions, but this is next level huge - I had to keep saving leftovers for 3 days to actually finish eating this dish. (You need not worry of going hungry if you order this, I guarantee).
Natas were nice & flaky with a smooth baked custard; it had a good char to the surface which added to the taste. Its worth coming here for the Natas alone, recommended!
Excellent place for poutine! Ordered the Poutine Romados. Great fries, delicious gravy, cheese curds & the added roasted chicken was SO tasty! The Pastel de nata were also excellent.
Friendly service from the owner George. Highly recommend! 😀
I make a point to come here every time im in Montreal. How do you take something as seemingly simple as rotisserie chicken & make it so good?! I really don't know but Romados has nailed it! Oh & those little tiny potato balls? I'll have one million please.
Don't ask me how was their regular food, their chicken? I am vegetarian & I was there to drink my coffee & dessert.
Great coffee & tasteful, mild sweet dessert, which I added to the list of Portugal cafe.

Edit nov 2025: I just placed an order for the bifana plate. I said I wanted the round roasted potatoes like in the picture, not fry strips. If they cared they would have given more rice instead of more fries or replaced the fries with salad if they didn't have the potatoes. I hate when I'm not listened to especially when it costs me money & my health. The bifana is rgood & the portion was big though so it's enough for 2 meals at least. It's not a big deal but still worth mentioning
Such a good chicken & fries source. I don't come here anymore because I'm mostly vegan but must give a proper review to send my appreciation for past good memories
I'm extremely satisfied with my'to-go' order from Romados! The service was incredibly fast, & the staff was so welcoming & friendly from the moment I walked in. I got the chicken breast & leg for my wife, & we also tried their desserts. Everything was super delicious! We'll definitely be back.
