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.
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.
La nourriture est vraiment bonne. Surtout les côtés levées. Les employés sont polis & serviables. Dommage qu'on y soit servis dans de la vaisselle jetable.
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.
The location is very central, the service is exceptional, & the food is fabulous. My family & I, tried a variety of foods & all there were outstanding. The dessert was wonderful, a true authentic Portuguese one. Do not hesitate to go & eat there or take out, the food is very good & you will not regret it. Enjoy like us! Kudos to Coco Rico hard working owner!

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!
J'avais commandé un quart cuisse & j'ai finalement eu un sandwich. Cependant, j'hésitais entre les 2 & le sandwich était vraiment bon! J'ai trouvé qu'il y aurait pu y avoir un légume ou verdure (salade ou tomate, quelque chose du genre) mais sérieux le goût est vraiment bon! J'ai trouvé les patates rondes plus belles que bonne mais c'est uniquement parce qu'il y a une épice dessus que je n'apprécie pas, quelqu'un qui aime cette épice va les trouver très bonnes!
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.
