Bought a box of 6 pastel de nata for $12 and they are some of the best I’ve had! 4 of the original and 1 coconut plus 1 chocolate just to mix it up. The original were my favourite, chocolate was good but a bit overpowering and the coconut had good texture.
What guests say about Romados
Romados seems to be especially appreciated for its Portuguese chicken, which is seen as flavorful, juicy, and often served in generous portions, with generally fast and friendly service. Several reviews also praise the poutine and desserts, and many feel it is worth the trip, especially for takeout or a quick meal. However, a few customers mention high prices, inconsistent quality from one visit to another, and service that can sometimes be cold or unpleasant.

Not what it used to be
Food : decent ( the non spicy sauce was flavorless. Service: horrible! There's an older lady who was working that day alonside a younger girl who was at the cash. Long story short, i was spoken to very nasty because i asked if the baked goods were made that day. It gets better. I left the store with no sauce on my chicken ( not a drop) so , I went back and asked for some sauce for my chicken. The younger lady says, I'm sure i put sauce on your chicken. I opened the container showing her the dry piece of chicken and she heads to the fridge and hands me a cold jelly like sauce. I asked her if she has any not from the fridge and she turns right around behind her towards the counter and grabs the hot , hot sauce. At that point, I really feel like there was discrimination and a purposely made decision to make me feel unwelcomed. Well, they got their wish. I will take my money elsewhere. They aren't even worth it. The food is nasty and they don't clean our season the meat before all that grilling. They rely on that horrible sauce to flavor the food. Yuck!
I ordered through Uber Eats and asked for spicy chicken, but this was the driest chicken I’ve ever tried. It didn’t have any sauce at all and wasn’t even mildly spicy. Very disappointing. Honestly, the worst Portuguese chicken I’ve had in Montreal.
Very good as always
Chicken was very tasty. Fries were a little greasy but overall pretty good.
Never disappoint me 😊
I used to frequent this place when it opened religiously. Now on a short trip, I was excited to see they were still open. I can say with certainty that this place has not changed. You have to stop here and try it out. Pour ceux qui sont déjà à Montréal, vous le savez déjà.
It just tasted like burnt chicken.
Had a family size meal for two, did take out of course too. The price reflects the service, which is counter (think fast food but better!) and the food exceeds the price and quantity! Tremendous value, they will have return customers!
Hadn't been since change over. Rather disappointed as chicken was dry and fries mostly end pieces.
The chicken is really juicy and flavourful. I ordered the 1/2 chicken plate and that thing was massive, like “filled to the brim” full.
no flavor in the chicken or potatoes - not the same as I remember it 😭
It used to be one of my top regular spots ages ago, but the quality of their chicken seems to have severely downgraded! Their signature Portuguese dessert is still on point though!
Portuguese cuisine done right! Friendly staff. Better to order and take away! Or to grab a quick healthy lunch! Always ask for extra Piri Piri sauce!
Excellent food but very bad behaviour, especially the guy preparing the food. Very rude We gave a tip that was really not deserved
Romados is one of the best spots in Montreal for Portuguese rotisserie chicken. The chicken is always juicy, tender, and packed with smoky, garlicky flavor, with crispy skin that's perfectly seasoned. What makes it special is how it captures the essence of Portuguese cuisine—simple, bold, and comforting, with the rich taste of garlic, paprika, herbs, olive oil, and a touch of citrus that lets the quality of the ingredients shine. The portions are generous, the prices are fair, and the service is quick, even when it's busy. If you're looking for authentic Portuguese cuisine that delivers incredible flavor in every bite, Romados is absolutely worth a visit. Next time I'm here, I have to try their poutine — I've heard great things about it!
My husband and I used to eat here weekly (20 years ago). Food is still great but the vibe of the place isn’t the same. Service was great. They keep the space very clean. No AC… but we had a good time.
