The chicken was decent, but not particularly memorable.
If I had to compare, the Portuguese chicken place next door was noticeably juicier. The chicken here felt a bit dry, possibly due to the cooking method, though it's hard to say for sure.
Overall, it was a perfectly acceptable meal, just without that'wow' factor or anything that really stood out.
That said, the roasted potatoes were quite good - especially when dipped in the chicken oil, which added a lot of flavor & was definitely the highlight of the meal.

the chicken & roasted potatoes are delicious & you get a ton of food! we had to ask for a to go box because we couldnt eat it all! We have been to montreal twice & both times we have eaten here! will come again!
Whenever I'm in Montreal I always go to Coco Rico to have a delicious chicken sandwich with roasted potatoes & salad.
An absolutely insane amount of food for a small price. Enough to feed an army. The family meal gets you a full chicken (ours was a little dry), one of their salads (we picked chickpea + feta - delicious!), & probably 20 pounds of fries (!!) I would suggest their roasted potatoes which I took as a side & they were to die for. Overall $32 can get you enough food for easily 6 people.
Loved the chicken breast with roasted potatoes cooked to perfection with salad, delicious 😋 great service with smile 😁
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.
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.
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!
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.
My last dinner on this trip to Montreal & I wanted Portuguese, something almost nonexistent back home (Calgary). I chose this place because it was reasonably close to where I was staying & had good reviews. I got the trio with the roasted pork sandwich, the roasted potatoes & I chose the carrot salad from among six options. The good: the carrot salad was fantastic! The somewhat good: some of the potatoes were melting perfection, but some were dry- since it's these potatoes that are endlessly extolled on here I expected better. They were good, but not great. Same with the sandwich. The meat was tender & tasty but rather meagre. The bread looked gorgeous but was a bit dry.
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
Very good roasted chicken. Overall correct pricing. Almost no room to seat properly. Below average costumer service.
The best Portuguese chicken I've ever had. Service was attentive. You must try the roasted potatoes they're to die for & the Portuguese custard tarts. Hubby & I were very impressed
