I recently visited this restaurant & tried their Portuguese roast chicken, which was amazing! The roast chicken had a crispy skin, tender & juicy meat, & every bite was full of rich spices & unique roasted flavor. The marinating & roasting of the chicken were just right. The restaurant environment is also very comfortable, & the waiter was friendly & enthusiastic, recommending several Portuguese sauces & side dishes that were perfect with the roast chicken. After the meal, we also enjoyed their special dessert, which was a perfect end to the whole dining experience. Overall, this dining experience was very satisfying & highly recommended to friends who like Portuguese food. Will definitely come back!

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.

This place is awesome! Portions are great & make the prices worthwhile - & this is something I am usually very critical of. Best piri piri sauce I've tasted in Montreal so far. They have some nice baked goods also. Service is quick but good quality. Only thing about this place is that there is not adequate seating.

This was one of the most popular places where we came with friends & family to eat fried chicken on charcoal. Unfortunately, the price increases twice every year, & recently a whole chicken has increased from $18 to $20.99. Or rather, everything has increased in price by 12%. The affordability was the number one factor besides the quality which is taken away.

Can always count on Romado's for a good hearty meal. Make sure to ask for extra spicy sauce if you like spicy.
