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.

My first experience of Romados was when I first came to Montreal to visit about 8 years ago. Romados was delicious then & delicious still on my recent visit.

Romados stands out from the many Portugese chicken places in the area. Their chicken plates are delicious & the hot sauce compliments it perfectly. The roasted potatoes & salad were such wonderful pairings. A chicken 1/4 plate is definitely enough for one person. We opted for the dark meat. The chicken is so flavor & the skin is soo good.

Their Romados poutine is phenomenal. You HAVE to try it. Small is good to share for 2. It's just so balanced. Good fries, good chicken, good cheese & gravy. We got white meat for the poutine.

The staff here are just wonderful. Such down to earth friendly people. Their reviews speak for themselves.

Go & try it, you won't regret the detour.

Honestly, its ok. The food is fine but the prices are higher than at'ma poule mouillé', which is really close to the restaurant. It is much more worth it to go there because the prices are unmatched & the food quality is superior to here. Another thing I didn't like about this place, is that they charge you for nonsense. At the other restaurant they dont charge you for the sauce but here they do, which is insane because the food itself is also more expensive, so you would think that the sauce is included but no. Also, we bought these cream-filled donughts but they had no cream. They were basically empty. Another thing is that the bathroom here is really dirty too. It looks really old & nasty. In conclusion, just go to'ma poule mouillé'. Its less expensive, cleaner, the food tastes better & the vibe is amazing.
