Really juicy & flavourful roast chicken & the natas were so good too with cinnamon sugar!! The highlight was getting to chat with the warm, friendly owner lady who made the whole dining experience so much better!!! Will definitely go back on next visit to Montreal!!

Great Portuguese fast food. I've been going there for 35 years. It's the same good roasting chicken dripping on the potatoes you see roasting in the oven machines. Everything is delicious & they have the best natas. I always take a sandwich, I ask to add a red pepper & some smashed roasted potatoes with the sauce & épices.

Best Portuguese place in MTL, the chicken is well seasoned & the natas are to die for.

This is a staple on the Main for decades. This place has been producing some of the best ribs, rotisserie chicken, sausage, roasted potatoes as well as sides such as their amazing Cole slaws & salads. This is a restaurant that's not about eating in with table service & such. It's mostly about take out & having a quick bite at the stool counter while people line up to order food. The displays show enticing yummy food while you wait to be served & by the time it's your time to order, you now want a little of everything! I have had everything here, but I have to say that one absolute MUST is their Nata pastry. These are made fresh & usually still warm in their display leaving the pastry crust light & flaky & the filling (an egg custard like filling) smooth & creamy. I doubt you can only eat one - I certainly can't. So to the food. Ribs: large & meaty pork ribs are perfectly cooked & seasoned. Chicken: rotisserie is fantastic juicy & skin nicely crisp. Their chicken sandwich is near perfection for a simple light fluffy fresh bun filled with fresh chicken, allowing the chicken to be the star of the meal & it was fantastic. Roasted potatoes: perfectly seasoned & cooked perfectly such that they are creamy inside & slightly crisp on the outside. Sausage: not overtly hot nor spicy, however as you begin to swallow you can feel a low warm heat develop & it's just right. They are cooked well such that the casing is nice & snappy crisp. It's a very densely packed sausage & very firm. Roasted lamb & pork: scrumptious.

Natas are to die for! & that chicken sandwich is also excellent. You have to try this place, it's worth it!

The best. Perry chicken in town. I've been coming here for 30 years. Last time I ordered a white chicken sandwich with sauce & mayonnaise. It was fantastic.

Forget about the line at Schwartz, this should be the main attraction of this block. Had the 1/4 chicken meal & was perfect for a sunny day! Everything cooked perfectly & amazing price point! A MUST on your next trip in Montreal

We were going often before having kids. We rediscovered Coco Rico now that our kids are preteens, & our meat lover son adores eating here. The chicken sandwich is as good as we remember & always leave a little room for pasteis de natas to finish a fun & delicious meal.

Montreal's best kept Portuguese secret, hidden in plain view. To all of you lined up for Schwartz' (blocking the entrance to Coco Rico): ever wonder where the delicious smells are coming from? It isn't from the smoked meat. Coco Rico has the best, juiciest & most flavourful pork, chicken & chourico sandwiches in the city. Potatoes roasted with the juices from the meats. Delicious breads, even the day-old ones are worth the drive. & don't leave without a six pack of natas. Been eating here for 40 years - hope to keep doing so for another 40!

Bad chicken sandwich. Greasy & low taste. Potato's are super greasy. The service is appallingly bad. Do not recommend.

We had two 1/2 chicken plates with salad & roasted potatoes. The chicken was perfectly cooked but was lacking flavour, it was bland. I asked for spicy sauce after a few bites but that didn't help at all. A bit pricy but I'm okay with that for the chicken plates but 6$ plus tax for 2 naya water bottles when you're dinning inside is not okay. Good service & good music. They also have a little terrasse on the side.

Ordered lamb steaks (borrejo) & asked for it to be well done, small sized salad & a small baked potato plate. The meat tasted nice & the potato was mouth watering as it's perfectly marinated & melts in the mouth. Their roasted chicken looks a big deal, but I haven't tried it yet. The seats aren't that comfy, the countertop is a bar style. The owner lady & the cashier are sweet & courteous. I recommend this place

Just made peace treaties with my hunger by ordering not one, not two, but THREE types of Portuguese sandwiches: chicken, roasted pork, & chouriço-all on Portuguese bread slathered in homemade spicy sauce. I threw in some roasted potatoes & homemade fries for good measure. Because, why not turn lunch into a carb festival? 🍞🥔🍟 Oh, & washed it all down with a craft beer from Brasseur de Montreal because, hey, hydration is key! 😂🍺 #SandwichSmorgasbord #CarbLoadingLikeAChamp

While walking around the neighborhood around lunch time we smelled delicious chicken from Rotisserie Coco Rico. We had to stop in! The two of us each got a chicken sandwich with pickles (one mild, one spicy with banana peppers), split an order of potatoes & each got one nata. The sandwiches were made with freshly made bread that was substantial enough to support the chicken but not too tough. The chicken was flavorful without being too greasy. The pickles were sharp & crisp & the pepper added flavor without being overly spicy. The side potatoes had a creamy texture with loads of flavor but not overly salty. The best part of the meal was the nata! They make the flakey crust & creamy center daily & have an optional dusting of cinnamon. After finishing our meal we got more to go. This was a nice quick stop in with bar seating available. I could see it being difficult to find a spot to sit if it's overly busy. The "spicy" sauce wasn't very spicy, but it was very tasty.

Chicken quality was good: juicy, full of Portuguese flavour. The chicken sandwhich was lacking a little bit of acidity, but I'm guessing it's not traditional to add pickles or onions. The sauce was also pretty flavourful. Very good place!
