Definitely reserve if you’re going at dinner time. We arrived around 5:45 PM and the place was already full. Food is worth the trip. The grilled chicken is juicy, well seasoned, and cooked properly over the grill. Their spicy sauce and spicy mayo are both really good. We ordered the “tour du chapeau” (beef ribs, veal escalope, chicken escalope), a full chicken, and a classic poutine for a group of 5 adults and 2 kids. Portions were generous and easy to share. Each plate comes with 2 sides, which is nice. Choices are fries, potatoes, rice, or salad. They were out of potatoes that night, though. Service felt a bit overwhelmed at first, but the staff was kind, caring, and figured things out quickly. Food also came out fast despite how busy it was.

This place was initially one of the best portugais grill restaurant in plateau and we were used to go there very frequently. But with the ownership change, it became unfortunately a very bad and very expensive place for what you get. There are many other places in a walking distance that offer you really good portugais grilled meat or chicken. Not recommend

I started with the basic chicken sandwich just to get a sense of what they offer. Now I’m ready to try the Tony Supremo—one of their most recommended sandwiches—and it’s easy to see why. Unlike the classic, which feels a bit plain with fewer ingredients and no sauce, the Tony Supremo seems much more flavorful and fully loaded. I also tried the half chicken plate, which came with delicious potatoes soaked in a flavorful sauce, along with a fresh salad.

Thank you so much for the thoughtful review! We’re glad you started with the classic and then discovered the Tony Supremo — it’s definitely our best seller. Extra flavor, sauce, and loaded ingredients really makes it stand out. Happy to hear you also enjoyed the half chicken plate, especially the potatoes and fresh salad. We truly appreciate your support and can’t wait to have you back to try even more from the menu!

Never disappoints! I’ve been coming here for years since being introduced to this place. The chicken is always juicy and perfectly cooked over charcoal. First time dining in and the service was great.

Amazing food and great service! We ordered a family combo with chicken, Portuguese potatoes, and salad, plus an extra chorizo to go; everything was full of flavor and absolutely delicious. The service was friendly and efficient, which made the whole experience even better. Definitely a place we’ll be coming back to!

As soon as I walked I knew I was going to have an experience and not just a meal. This place takes u back tons time when things were simpler and that's a good thing. I loved the atmosphere and the host mad u feel like part of the family. I had the Tony supreme sandwich and I wasn't disappointed. The French fries are the best I've ever had.

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 and tender, my sandwich was delicious. Paul, who served my friend and 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 and girls, you rock!

One of the best Portuguese spots in town. Update to my review, new owners now and the place is a lot nicer! Cool vibe with the mural. However, it has lost a lot of its spirit and doesn’t really have anything traditionally Portuguese on the menu, sadly walked out when I saw the new menu. A bit disappointing as it was one of my fave Portuguese spots. I’m leaving my review as is because I didn’t try the new menu so I want to be fair.

I went to Portugalia for the first time and 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 and fresh, the chicken is perfectly marinated and melts in your mouth. The staff is so friendly too. They make you feel like family. I am definitely going back.
