Romados emerges in these reviews as a Montreal staple famous for juicy, smoky Portuguese rotisserie chicken, generous portions, and a pastry and dessert counter that many say rivals the best in town. Visitors praise a welcoming, efficient staff, a clean space, and a pronounced aroma that signals the grill, with favorites spanning chicken sandwiches, bifana, chouriço, poutine and a variety of sides. Pastel de nata and other pastries are repeatedly highlighted as standout treats, and the poutine with chicken or sausage is often noted as especially satisfying. While the experience is described as fast, friendly and affordable, several reviews mention price increases and occasional inconsistencies, with some batches of chicken drying out or sauces being too thin or mild and portions evolving over time. Some commentary notes a shift after ownership changes but others feel the kitchen has regained its former energy and flavor, and the overall tone remains loyal and appreciative. All in all, Romados is seen as a dependable go to for bold flavors, hearty portions, and a range of Portuguese bites that keep customers coming back for the nostalgic, comforting mix of grill, spice, and sweet pastries.
Je ne sais pas ce qui est arrivé à ce restaurant. Il y a plusieurs ans, il était toujours très achalandé : il n'y avait pas de place pour s'asseoir & il fallait attendre de longues minutes pour être servi.
Aujourd'hui, il n'y a plus de file d'attente, les tables sont vides, & la qualité a un peu changé. Au niveau de la quantité, les portions de frites sont moins généreuses qu'avant, & le goût est plus ou moins bon.
Est-ce l'effet des réseaux sociaux ou de la concurrence ? J'espère que ce restaurant retrouvera sa splendeur d'antan

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.
Tellement bon que j'me suis booké un vol au Portugal (oui oui)
Difficile de trouver des endroits où le poulet est aussi juteux. Le service est toujours excellent & rapide. Merci!
Went there to grab a sweet cup of teramissu... ended up with a cup of old cheese... the cup isnt covered tiramisu became hard & cracks on surface... tokk 2 bites to see the inside texture, yep was hard to chew. Gave 2 stars instead of 1 just to be nice.
Best chiken in Montréal, I been going here for years now, great price fast service. Love it, could used a extra spicy sauce but I do have my own for that.
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.
