Un restaurant incontournable sur la Rive-Sud ! J'y vais depuis plusieurs années & c'est toujours une expérience exceptionnelle. La qualité des plats est constante, toujours savoureuse & parfaitement préparée. On sent le savoir-faire & la passion derrière chaque assiette, ce qui fait de chaque repas un vrai plaisir du début à la fin.
Au-delà de la cuisine, c'est aussi l'accueil qui fait toute la différence. Chaque visite est un moment chaleureux, marqué par un service attentionné & professionnel. On se sent tout de suite bien reçu, presque comme à la maison, grâce au dévouement des propriétaires.
Je connais les propriétaires depuis longtemps & je peux affirmer qu'ils mettent tout leur coeur dans leur restaurant. Leur gentillesse, leur souci du détail & leur passion pour la cuisine se reflètent autant dans l'ambiance que dans les plats. C'est rare de trouver une telle constance : année après année, la qualité reste irréprochable & l'ambiance conviviale.
Ce restaurant est bien plus qu'une simple adresse : c'est un lieu de confiance, où l'on revient avec plaisir en famille, entre amis ou pour faire découvrir la véritable cuisine portugaise à ceux qui ne la connaissent pas encore. Une vraie fierté d'avoir un tel restaurant sur la Rive-Sud, que je recommande sans la moindre hésitation !

Superbe resto à visiter sur la rive sud. Une belle cuisine authentique avec des ingrédients frais.
j'ai adoré
Recommandation : les bouchées de morues sont absolument délectables
Caldo Verde is very good
Pastel de bacalhau is not homemade & not good way too much potatoes!
Our server was very pleasant at the beginning of the service but rushed us out at the end of the evening.
We won't go back
3 person bill 300.00$ wasn't worth it.

Le restaurant est petit, avec une odeur légèrement désagréable, rappelant un vieux salon mal ventilé. L'adaptation a été difficile au début. Il y avait même des chaises entreposées dans les toilettes, ce qui reste incompréhensible.
Les plats sont relativement chers compte tenu de l'ambiance - les prix varient entre 28 & 90 CAD. Les portions sont correctes, mais les saveurs laissent à désirer. Étonnamment, le porc, le poulet & les calmars avaient un goût très similaire, ce qui est assez déroutant.
La cuisine est plutôt banale. Nous avons voulu partager un cake pour celebrer l'aniversaire de notre groupe de 15 personnes, mais on nous a informés qu'un supplément de 5 CAD par personne s'appliquerait. De plus, partager un plat entraîne des frais additionnels de 9 CAD. Il n'est pas non plus possible de commander uniquement une entrée, car un montant minimum est exigé par personne.
Le seul point positif : il est permis d'apportez son propre vin.
Food: mediocre -> pasta penne (vegetarian) for 30$
Service:
Management refused to serve a pre- bought cake to serve at group party, & instead said would charge 5$ extra per person (14ppl) just to serve the cake.
When a patron chose not to tip the waitress due to the treatment received, the waitress turned to shaming that person (if front of the 13 other companions) by asking what part of her service wasn't good that she didn't deserve a tip & actually asked if they didn't have enough money to tip. As a patron, I regret having tipped that waitress myself with that type of entitlement & disregard for patrons.
They don't accept credit cards because they have to pay a fee.
With poor management decisions, unacceptable attitude/behaviour & entitlement from the waitress, & overpriced & mediocre food, I didn't enjoy my experience. We will not be going back, nor will we recommend this place to anyone else.
Management chose not to reform their policies or adapt to the situation, but to lose clients to save a buck instead. All we remember is: what we couldn't do & how the waitress behaved for her tip. 👎👎👎
We ordered for the first time. Excellent new taste of Portuguese chicken & tasty French fries. It's very salty so you may want to order drinks or have water handy. Totally recommend!
