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 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.

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! 😀
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.

So here's my 3rd update of Romados.
Forget the disaster that the 2nd generation owners created to my beloved Romados, the NEW owner fixed what was broken.
The restaurant is clean. The food is as delicious as it originally was. The staff is smiling again & the service is so friendly & professional as it once was. Congratulations & thank you to the new administration. You are making this Montreal gem shine again. Good job George! Obrigado to you & your staff. ROMADOS PARA SEMPRE!
First day time since they have opened again. We went early so there was no waiting time. The service was very efficient & fast. The people at the counter were courteous.
The food itself, we had the family chicken with fries & salad. The food was delicious. I wish there was more sauce on the chicken. The sauce that come with the salad is sweet which give me a perfect fusion along with the chicken. Fries were good also. We ended taking their natas, surprisingly, each one was huge & delicious. I recommend.
Look at that pile of food! That's the 1/4 chicken with chorizo. $16! The chicken was tender & delicious. Fresh cut fries. Fast & friendly service, to boot! I highly recommend this restaurant.
I have not been here in years & heard the crew left & went to ma poule mouillée years ago & that's exactly it. Ramados use to be decadent in flavors & the fries were spectacular. I went today for a chicken sandwich with fries & I was actually disappointed. The salad is exactly like MA poule with the small portions & hardly any sauce. I don't eat at restaurants much as I love to cook . For the 1 time I wanted to treat myself . It was good but nothing to rave about anymore . Service was nice I have to say .
