    Had had the half chicken and substituted fries for salad. Very moist meat. I had the mild sauce so next time I will try medium as I wanted more flavor. Skin could also be crispier but I thought it was a filling lunch at reasonable price. Limited seating. Desserts are available. I had the pasteis de nata. Close to what I got in Lisbon but filling was a tad sweeter and denser.

    Anthony Bourdain brought me here. What do I mean by that? My husband and I watch his old episodes where he visits the location we're headed to and do our best to try those spots. And let me tell you, he's yet to disappoint. Romados is like simplicity at its finest. A good old chicken and rice dinner with an extra punch. When I say punch, I mean the chicken will truly knock you off your feet. We had the Portuguese chicken and it was incredible. The meat was extremely flavorful and moist. It was nothing "fancy" but absolutely delicious. The Portuguese chicken came in a family sized meal and we have so many leftovers that I fully intend to eat and savor. The price point is also very reasonable for the portion size and quality. I definitely recommend this business!

    Got the Portuguese chicken mild with fries and salad, and everything was delicious! They give such a big portion for the chicken, and it was seasoned perfectly. The fries were fried well and had the right balance of salt and other seasonings with it. Salad had a good variety of greens as well. This is a mostly takeout spot, but I can see why Anthony Bourdain recommended this spot in Montréal. A must try for Portuguese chicken!

    We found the good reviews on Xaiohongshu and very satisfied after the visit. The chicken is full of flavor, juicy and willing! I like the chicken with gravy on the fries. I would hope the fries to be more crispy Their egg tart is not too creamy which I like and not too sweet. I am happy with this visit

    The whole meal was so amazing, from the chicken and fries to the pastries. The sauce was a great complement to the chicken. The wooden utensils were a bit difficult to use, especially with the salad.

    Got the 1/2 chicken with fries and salad. Also a nata. Chicken was nicely seasoned, moist and tasty. Ordered through UberEats. Packaging is sustainable.

    Hands down the Best Portuguese chicken I have ever tried. If you eat chicken, try this place, this is a Must. Delicious juicy chicken, fries and salad served with a hot or a mild sauce. The setting is not fancy, but it's cheap, delicious and generous. I tied this classic Portuguese Rotisserie when we went to Montreal last year. There was a long line up, it took me more than 1 hr to get to the ordering counter. There are 2 lines, one for walk in and second for order pickup. Yes you can order in advance and skip the long line. I got it packed and also got few egg tarts. Went back to our hotel and ate it after 2 hrs. I was blown away, the chicken was so flavourful and juicy. Even the egg tarts were good. I will definitely go back there. Sometimes I get dreams about this chicken, and believe me I will someday just go for a drive from Toronto to Montreal and back just for this chicken.

    Great chicken spot! Getting your food can take a while. From the time we ordered to when we received the food, it probably took 20 mins. We got the 1/2 chicken with rice + salad, 1/2 chicken with fries + salad, and egg tarts. The chicken combo was really big, we probably only needed one portion for the two of us. The rice is really delicious! I was surprised to encounter such tastes rice here, which only made us sad we got the fries. The salad is pretty small, just a nice side when you need a break from the carbs. The chicken itself was really delicious and tender! However, it's really salty in my opinion. Also, I feel like Costco's rotisserie chicken might be more worthwhile... The Portuguese egg tarts were quite nice. They are probably sort of overpriced compared to other places, but delicious nonetheless. However, I will say I'm more of a Chinese egg tart fan.

    I was very excited to try Romados. I had read that it was one of the best Piri Piri chicken places in Montreal, so we headed that way. I ordered a half a chicken with spicy sauce and rice. The chicken was ok, not as flavorful as I expected. It was moist and tender, but lacking a bit of flavor. The rice was gooey and wet, not my favorite. My BF got the chicken sandwich with fries. The sandwich itself was ok also, the bread very doughy and the fries (they pile them up) were not crispy as I like them. Others might love the place, for me, it was just OK. Nothing to come back for anytime soon.

    So good! Romados has perfected their chicken, and even though you don't see the chicken in this picture, it's hiding under all those fries! You get a good portion of fries and salad and rice too, and couldn't even finish all the fries. We got two half combos, and three of us couldn't even finish it! So much food. Also definitely try their egg tarts! I was hoping the egg tarts would be warm, but they're cold. A sweet dessert, and while they look like Portuguese egg tarts I've had before, didn't quite taste the same. Still yum though.

They don't seem to get as much attention as some other poutine places, but don't sleep on this experience. For their price, it is a lot of food, one large serving of their 19$ grilled chicken with sausage and poutine is a great meal that will last you the entire day, it was more than enough for two. They debone two legs of chicken on top of the poutine that they pulled fresh off their grill! Service was fast, there is plenty of room to eat at the restaurant and they have a separate counter for the pastries. We had to get some of their Portuguese tarts (10$ for 6) and they were also amazing. Creamy, custardy, perfectly baked. It reheated well in the air fryer when we brought some back as souvenirs to enjoy. This is a place worth stopping by in Montreal, poutine in one hand and a batch of tarts for dessert on the other.

I'll say half of the 1/2 chicken I ordered was definitely moist and tender, while the other side was a bit dried out. The fat from the skin was nonexistent, so not much flavor other than the sauce that coated the exterior of the chicken. While there was an abundance of fries, which covered every inch of the paper box, sadly they were neither crunchy nor crisp. This was right after opening my box after I paid for my order. I also got the chicken sandwich which was juicer even if it was less majestic than the 1/2 chicken. The flan dessert was somewhat forgettable, I left half of it behind. There was a line up to order but it moved well. There is seating inside however the tables and chairs were in need of a good wipe down.

The prices are what you would expect from a nice restaurant, a bit expensive but fair, and they have numerous selections to choose from. I hadn't tried Portuguese fried sardines before and they were quite delicious, and served with lemon and a spicy piri piri sauce that really enhanced the dish--big portion and had leftovers! The grilled Chorizo was delectable as well, with the charcoal flavor really shining through--not too spicy. My favorite dish was the Pork and Clams stew, a classic Portuguese surf and turf dish that was a little potato heavy but the flavor was perfect with hints of lemon, red pepper paste, and a salty, but not-too-salty brine on the tender pork loin. Another dish I tried was the grilled pork medallions: it was a bit average but still good. The potatoes were a little soggy/not crispy and the green salad was a touch too simple with just balsamic vinegar and olive oil; nothing special, but decent. The grilled Portuguese chicken was pretty nice and had that charbroiled/grilled flavor and the meat was quite juicy. The large serving is enough to share if you aren't too hungry and came with same sides as the pork medallions dish, which felt a bit repetitive... The waiter was very attentive and checked up on our table often. Good service. I prefer Aldea, another Portuguese restaurant a few blocks away, since they had similar prices and a bit better quality, more uniqueness of flavor...but if you are feeling a more homey, family-style energy then Casa Minhota is perfect for you.

We started with a salad, caldo verde (both included with our mains), two perfectly-sized bacalao croquettes, and six garlic shrimp. We had a choice of three daily fish special: Icelandic cod, branzino, and Arctic char. My wife had the char and I had the cod, both elegantly and perfectly prepared.
