About

Romados serves authentic Portuguese charcoal-grilled chicken prepared with a signature spicy piri-piri sauce that defines its menu. The kitchen specializes in traditional rotisserie techniques where chickens are roasted slowly to achieve a crisp, flavorful skin and tender, juicy meat. Diners select from generous portions often accompanied by classic side dishes such as seasoned fries, fresh garden salads, and crusty bread rolls. The atmosphere remains informal and focused on efficient service, catering to those seeking a reliable, high-volume culinary experience. Beyond the flagship poultry, the menu includes various Portuguese culinary staples that emphasize bold spices and simple, high-quality ingredients. This establishment stands as a local institution for enthusiasts of robust, flame-cooked protein prepared according to time-honored methods that prioritize flavor intensity over elaborate presentation.

The portions? Ungodly. Genuinely multiple meals worth of food. The poutine? Incredible! I got the Romados Poutine & it was the best I've had in Montreal (great quantity of everything & an amazing piri piri sauce drizzled on top). The people? So kind! They clearly love what they do & want to share good food with people. I've been recommending it to everyone I meet since I went, so do yourself a favour & just go!

Absolument, Romados, aucun problème à vous le suggérer. Une Poutine avec poulet Portugais & saucisse épicée, Un mariage entre Le Québec & Les épices à la Portugaise. C'était 🐷. Une portion très généreuse pour le prix. Le Sandwich au Poulet était tout aussi agréable & copieux. Le pain est excellent, j'aimerais avoir le meme pour faire des burgers a la maison. Essayez aussi leurs natas ils les vendent aussi pour emporter. Si vous passez devant, aller faire un tour aucune chance d'être déçu...

Great local spot, staff is friendly as can be (my French is rusty, apologies, New Brunswick changed its programming for French four times in my academic career; my Portuguese is non-existent, & speaking Spanish would just bewilder them, I assume) in English, French, or Portuguese. Solid Piri Piri Chicken poutine, insanely good Bifana. & the prices are good, too. Also, if you want some fresh crusty rolls, they're cheap as can be. ($1.99 for 6 fresh rolls? Sign me up!)

We ordered a large catering order from George during the Formula 1 Grand Prix weekend. George hand delivered the meal to our Airbnb outside the city. Not only was the food still hot, but it was also delicious. Many in our group said it was the best chicken, potatoes, & poutine we had all weekend. Thank you George for the wonderful meal. We will be back next time we visit Montreal.

Been missing Romados when COVID hit us all. Went today after more than 3 years. No line-up?! Well, i can say why... there's nothing good anymore of the "old" Romados. Here we get some generic grilled chicken that doesn't have the distinctive charcoal & piri piri taste. Gone. The rice was hard & tasteless as the chicken. The poutine (regular) was tasty (brown gravy!) but little to no cheese curds. Only redeeming thing is fries are still good & service is good also. I gotta say this but even St-Hu... piri-piri chicken taste way better than the now Romados. Will not be going back anymore. RIP Romados. Sad but true.

Used to be amazing but everytime I've ordered a poutine recently the fries have been stale & old & super dry because all the sauce was only on the top & too cold :( it's a shame it used to be my favorite
