At Coco Rico, the rotisserie chicken is consistently juicy with crisp skin, balanced by creamy potatoes and fresh salads, while pastel de nata offer a perfect finish. The place feels like a welcoming Portuguese corner in Montreal, with friendly staff, great value, and generous portions that make casual meals or family nights feel special. The menu also delivers satisfying sandwiches, ribs, and poutines with reliable flavor, and the overall experience is easy to love and worth returning for.
We were feeding 10 people at an AirBnB down the road & this place was a GREAT find. Purchased several'Family meals' & got it to go. Food was excellent (Ribs, Chicken, Potato's, sides). Don't forget to get their dessert which is these custard cup pastries which were AMAZING. 10 out of 10 for food quality, super nice people.
I have been going to cocorico for almost 20 years & it's still the best place in Montréal For some of the most tender three Portuguese chicken in the city.
Service has always been absolutely friendly above & be on the call of duty. & half an hour before closing, I went in to have a chicken sandwich special - I never felt rushed, & the food was so fresh & so very hot. The chicken sandwich on a fresh roll, with extra sauce - medium, not too spicy, the home potatoes, & creamy coleslaw is my comfort food. I feel bad for the people who had ordered takeout & felt they were short changed, but I've made it a point to eat at the restaurant, & I've always had overstuffed buns with moist chicken breast & crispy skin. The Natas deserve a whole other review on their own - but just this to say, if you feel like you too hungry, take six of them to go - & your night will be complete :) I got to chat with one of the co-owners - who was a delight, bubbly & friendly, & we went down memory lane talking about how being a kid in the 1970s was such a privilege & so much fun. So that's how I ended my night with a full & happy belly & some wonderful shared laughter.
As much as I love Schwartz's, I say skip the lineup & walk up the street to Coco Rico. You'll be happy you did :)
I know this place has a lot of food on the menu but the only thing we tried were the Pastel de Nata. Wow Delicious & they could definitely compete with the one we ate in Portugal. Highly recommended!

I got a whole chicken to go. Wings were ultra dry, legs were partially dry. Although the chicken looks seasoned (orange colouring) there's no flavour, no salt. Was quite disappointed.
I'm usually vegetarian but I broke it for this chicken sandwich...& I'll do it again. This was so delicious. The portugese bun with the downright succulent chicken & a lil shmear of mayo?! Simply perfect. The devil is in the details & I saw no evil here. Highly recommend. Potatoes & salads also splendid.
I've been going here for years & It has been a sure shot of me & my family. I'm taking the time to make this review because lately their portions are a lot more generous, their service is extra welcoming. Besides the chicken being so delicious & moist, their round potatoes just melt in your mouth. It's like visiting a little corner of Portugal in the lively city of Montreal 💫

The best place to experience the authentic taste of barbecued pork, lamb, or chicken. A cozy atmosphere, friendly staff, &, most importantly, the warm & welcoming attitude of the Portuguese owner made our day. Don't forget to try their famous Portuguese dessert, pastel de nata, which is arguably the best you can find in Montreal. Highly recommended!
Après randonnée sur le Mont Royal a moins de 10 minutes le déplacement vaut la peine. Le meileur poulet portuguais a ma connaissance a Mtl & un institution qui date de plus de 40 années.
Longue vie a Coco Rico. Photo du Chalet sur le sentier de 2km aucun rapport mais bon ..🐓 😛
