Viana Grillades Portugaises Montreal Restaurant: Menu, Reviews & Reserve (2026)
PortugueseGrillSaladsBoutique-Counter
Bem-vindos a Viana! Antonio & Celeste Da Costa from a small village in Northern Portugal, were inspired by the idea of crossing the ocean to create a better life for themselves and their children. They immigrated to Canada in 1978 and settled in Lasalle borough in the early 1980s. In 1984 their son, Carlos Costa began working at one of Montreal's finest landmarks, Jano Grillades. He worked there for close to 30 years and acquired deeply rooted knowledge of Portuguese cuisine. Carlos and his son Fabio shared a passion for hard work and the food service industry. Along with the help and support of his wife Ines and daughter Vanessa, they decided as a family that they would embark on a passion project which would allow them to fulfill a lifelong dream. As proud Luso-Canadians, Fabio and Vanessa were inspired by their father's hometown Viana do Castelo, where they vacationed every summer. Viana is an homage to their heritage, and a place where they are able to share and multiply the love they have for their culture. Obrigado!

Review Summary

Viana Grillades Portugaises receives widespread praise for juicy, well seasoned chicken, generous portions, and friendly, attentive service, with many reviewers calling it a standout for authentic Portuguese flavors and the house sauces, and noting a cozy, welcoming atmosphere with charming decor; some guests single out the noise from ventilation and loud music as a downside, making it less ideal for family meals, while a few takeout experiences point to occasional inconsistencies in items or changes to loyalty programs after ownership changes. Overall the reviews convey a small, unpretentious spot that delivers satisfying, solid Portuguese fare at good value, with dishes ranging from the beloved chicken and chorizo to cod, poutine, and pastéis de nata, and multiple mentions of wanting to return for both dine-in and takeout.

Great find! We dined in tonight & an overall great experience! All of the food was amazing, down to the seasoning on the fries! The chicken was great, the salad as well! & the pastel de nata, so good! Andy (the owner) super nice guy who took his time to have a conversation with us! We drove to LaSalle from the south shore & happy we did!!! We will definitely Be back! For great Portuguese food with a good ambiance, it is a MUST!

The food was really disappointing. Very salty & the piri piri sauce was awful - was almost tomatoey. I've had a lot of Portuguese chicken in my life & this is definitely on the lower end of the scale. People have raved about this to me & I was hoping for a LaSalle version of Romados or Ma Poule Mouiller...this is definitely not that. Maybe an off night for them but I won't be returning.

Oh my goodness, I don't believe what I discovered! This incredible little Portuguese restaurant tucked away in Ville Lasalle is an absolute treasure. The staff there are just the best, I mean seriously, they're absolutely amazing! & let me tell you about the new management duo - they're actually cousins & watching them work together is an absolute riot, so hilarious! Can't believe I have never heard about it until now.

Now, let's talk about the food. Oh my, it was exceptional! I mean, sure, there was a teensy-weensy mistake with the order, but honestly, it was no big deal at all. The manager immediately noticed & took care of it right away, & get this, they went above & beyond by offering us a steaming cup of coffee & the most delicious pastel da nata, which just so happens to be my absolute favorite! I was in heaven!

In my humble opinion, Viana Grillades is an absolute must-try. Trust me, you won't regret it!
