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.

I went to pick up a family combo dinner on Sunday (Feb 22nd 2026). Before visiting, I looked at the menu (pictures posted by other users - 4 months ago). The family combo was priced at $33.99 (ther user's pic). When I got to the ordering counter, I noticed the price for that combo went all the way up to $39.99. In other words, the price went up by $6. That is a close to 20% increase. Now, I understand food cost, labor cost are all on the rise, but a 20% increase??
Service was rapid, courteous & professional. Food was average - nothing stands out particularly. However, when prices rise by this much without any noticeable justification, it's just a money-grab.
Thank you, but no thanks. Definitely my last visit.

I'm missing Portugal so I went to this Portuguese restaurant in Montreal & was amazed with their authentic chicken piri piri. Will definitely come back.
C'était ma première visite & j'ai goûté à quelques pâtisseries. Mon coup de coeur va au salami chocolaté, vraiment délicieux! & les natas, les meilleures que j'ai mangé! 😋
La prochaine fois je goûterai au poulet qui semblait très bon!
Cuisine Portuguaise exceptionnelle. Le staff est super gentil & rapide. La nourriture est excellente & servie chaude. Je recommande à tous ceux qui aime la cuisine du Portugal!
