Review Summary

Rotisserie Portugalia is described as a standout for charcoal grilled Portuguese chicken, with juicy, well seasoned meat, smoky flavor and crisp skin, generous portions, and tasty accompaniments like poutine, rice, and salad, all served by friendly, warmly welcoming staff in a small, cozy spot with a lively atmosphere. The Supremo sandwich is highlighted as a top choice in town for bold flavor and big portions. Some reviews note a shift after new ownership, with complaints that the menu no longer emphasizes traditional Portuguese dishes and that prices have risen while portions feel smaller. Occasional service hiccups and longer wait times appear in some visits, particularly for takeout, but many reviews still praise quick, attentive service and the sense of being welcome at Rotisserie Portugalia. Overall, Rotisserie Portugalia is repeatedly described as among the best Portuguese chicken options in Montreal, a go-to for those craving authentic charcoal flavor and generous, satisfying meals, and a place many reviewers say they plan to return to.

l used to buy their barbecued chicken for lunch when l was working nearby.

Yesterday, l went to the restaurant with a friend. What a pleasant experience!

The chicken was spicy & tender, my sandwich was delicious.

Paul, who served my friend & l, had an amazing sense of humor. l left the place laughing.

l will keep visiting this place every time l go to Plateau.

Bravo to the whole team! Guys & girls, you rock!

I went to Portugalia for the first time & I had the Tony Supremo sandwich. This sandwich is top-notch, hands down the best sandwich I've ever had. The bread is so soft & fresh, the chicken is perfectly marinated & melts in your mouth. The staff is so friendly too. They make you feel like family. I am definitely going back.

One of the best portuguese grills in Montreal. I have been numerous times in the past 20 years, & ordered delivery also numerous times in the past 5 years. I usually go for the grilled chicken (spicy) & natas. Always the same excellent flavor.

I've been coming to Portugalia in Montreal for years, & the food is always incredible! Paolo went above & beyond, providing exceptional, attentive, & friendly service that made our visit truly memorable. If you want the best authentic Portuguese chicken cooked on charcoal, this is the place. I can't recommend it enough!

*AS OF NOVEMBER 2025, Portugalia does not take Skip orders*

Portugalia's charcoal chicken is a repeated favorite & consistently top notch! It's easily among the best in the city, you can't go wrong!

Shoutout to Joe for the charming service & sorting out the Skip mess with us!
