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.

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.

Rapide, portions très généreuses, le poulet grillé, le chorizo, les frites, la salade, la sauce piquante, tout est savoureux, à prix avantageux. Jamais déçus!

Chicken too salty, just eating the whole chicken by itself not a good idea.

The chicken is delicious. We also enjoyed the rice & sides. We came here twice while on vacation in Montreal as it was close to our lodging. All the Portuguese chicken we've tried since has not been comparable to this place.

I liked their chicken. But. To be sincere. Down the same street you can find Ma Poule Mouillée, & it tastes better.
