I used to love this place and haven’t been for a couple of years so I was excited to come back. I’d seen some not too great reviews but with an over 4 rating we figured we’d go for it. Now I wish we heeded the bad reviews. The good: Our server was courteous and very good. The rice, potatoes, and piri piri sauce were good. We also appreciated the bread and olives. Portion sizes were decent. The bad: The meats. I ordered the half chicken (see photo) and my friend had steak and egg. The chicken was overcooked, very dry and not enjoyable at all. And, the steak was quite tough. We used to love this place but were saddened at the decline in quality of the mains. Maybe we were unlucky and came on a bad day? Our experience is similar to a few other reviews. I don’t think we will be coming back any time soon.
Food quality was really nice, and the portions were very generous!! We had salmon, chicken, and pork chops at our table and each meal had a very satisfied customer. We were already talking about coming back and whom else we would want to bring before our meals were even over. The temperature in the dine in seating area was very warm. Suggest maybe one or two more oscillating fans if possible to keep the dine in experience comfortable.
I had an amazing experience with my boyfriend. The food was delicious I liked it a lot. The ambiance was cozy, and the service was outstanding.btw servers are very friendly. Thank you so much. ---
Honestly not that great. It is edible but burnt and overcooked chicken. Was really craving some good Portuguese food, but very disappointed. The potatoes have no flavor. The chicken is overcooked. The sauce is pretty good and the rice is average. I got half chicken. It was about $20. I have it again probably not. I wanted to also try the squid however you need to pre-order that as it takes a while for them to cook it.
We were looking for a place to have lunch near the Greenwood Conservation Area and so glad we picked this one! I had the pork ribs with Parisienne potatoes and Greek salad, all delicious! My companions were raving about the grilled chicken and osauces selections so everyone left feeling full and satisfied.
First time coming back here after Covid. A few things have changed. They now have a hot take out counter and also a small section selling Portuguese fry goods and frozen food. I have to say I was a tad disappointed. I ordered the calamari appetizer, and was surprised to get a frozen almost doesn’t take like calamari dish. Visually, it looks just like a plate full of calamares but when you bit into it, texturally not the same. Taste was good. Crunchy on the outside but too mushy on the inside. The grilled whole fish was the star of the meal. Perfection cooked. The rice and potatoes were so so.
I love this place. The rotisserie chicken is one of the best I have ever tried. Very juicy and delicious. The potatoes on the side are to die for. They have one of the best piri sauces ever. We sometimes just buy the sauce (they have bunch of other grocery items too). The fried shrimp was okay. Very friendly staff and prompt service.
This place adds good variety to the food choices available in the area. Not many commercial blocks or strip malls have a place offering Portuguese cuisine. The interior and the diner setup with the food displayed in front also adds a very homey feel inside the restaurant. The operators just need to always ensure that the food is always heated up before serving. The meat was very saucy, spicy, and savoury. Fried rice also goes paired well with most orders. The food may come off as a little oily for some, but that is just how I believe the dish is actually intended. I also really appreciate the front counter staff who was very patient taking my order. I had to spend quite a bit more time because the pricing showing in the menu was already up compared to the publicly posted photos available on Google Maps.
Best Portuguese chicken
10/10
Great place to enjoy food
One of my go to places for a decent yet flavourful chicken dinners. Their chicken boast flavours and taste. Highly recommend
My family and I arrived here at 7:11 pm on Friday and were refused service because they were closing at 8. 2 servers went back and forth around us without even asking if we wanted to order to go. They werent accepting dine in. All we wanted was a sandwich. Food is good but with service like this no one will support this business.
The chicken and squid were cooked to perfection. Mac and cheese were served cold but tasted great and the chicken and pork skin were good as well. It was hot inside but didnt stop me from eating.
Catering and dining in makes a huge difference. Anyone trying their food first time is recommended to dine-in first. Dining-in will give you a much better experience than doing catering (still good by the way). If I visit Ajax again, I will come back here again.
Good quality & quantity food
Food and service were really good!..I might add they are a bit expensive.
Great experience, Laura served us and she was amazing! The food is delicious! Second time we came and already became customers!!! Kid-friendliness: A place for family.
Great food, homey, no nonsense. Had the euro football game on, everyone just chilling on a saturday for lunch Parking: Great
Food was well-seasoned, service was helpful and friendly. Will definitely be back soon!
The food and service was great. Laura served us. She was helpful and friendly!
Best Piri-Piri chicken around.
Just had the smallest driest chicken I ve ever had. I m so disappointed as I used to love this place. Won t be coming back.
Excellent food
Great chicken
For the most part - really good meal. Sauce is perfection. Chicken is really nice, only one part was too dry. I m going to be coming back here! Food : 4/5 |
Kid-friendliness: Good Food
Food tasty and at good price the only complaint dine inn is not recommended the AC in summer doesn t work
I just picked up for the first time. The chicken was delicious, the potatoes were perfectly cooked. I was also able to pick up fresh portuguese cheese and frozen codfish cakes to cook at home which was a bonus I wasnt expecting.
Just ate the no cold drinks no ice, undercooked bitoque poorly cooked egg over frozen fries anyone knows how to peel potatoes, shouldve gone to McDonalds food is better. Can keep going but this place not even worth the review.
Good value and yummy food !
Great place to buy food stuffs, from Portugal.
Pork chop is very nice. Grilled squid need more salt and spices. But overall nice food.
We ordered via Uber Eats as a group. $170 PLUS for 5 lunches.Rice was not cooked, Chicken dry, very disappointing , as we were told need to try it. We called to have food replaced, they did replace the order, that is great, problem was not only was there an attitude with the one that dropped food off, he took the old food back. I thought for health reasons , companies do not take food back. They must have given someone elses food from the day before.
Great food
Very nice place to go with the kids and the family to enjoy a nice time together
Amazing food and wonderful customer service. We were waited by a black woman (I dont know her name) and she was very patient with my obnoxious family. Would come again!!
This was the worse Portuguese chicken I have ever ate in my life. I honestly was so disappointed! I m not one to write reviews usually I just keep it pushing but with the economy we are currently living in there is no way someone should waste their hard earned money on this food. I bought a chicken dinner which came with rice , potatoes and chicken. Where do I even start the rice was undercooked and was hard. The potatoes were tasteless and lacked any type of seasoning you could think of, and the chicken the CHICKEN MAN! THE MAIN PART OF THE DISH! was absolutely terrible it lacked any type of flavour which is so disappointing cause the colour and everything was on point. I even tried to come home and fix it by adding my own sauce and putting it in the oven to see if I could get some flavour in it but still NOTHING. The service however, was great ladies were lovely. But the cook just seems tired or lacks any type of knowledge of Portuguese cooking. Please go back to the drawing boards guys because the food is to expensive to taste like this!
Amazing food! Tried the grilled squid and ribs, both of them were great. The nata was also fantastic!
Wow! I cannot believe how kind and incredible the staff at this location are. I foolishly placed a big take out order on the WRONG date and went to go in the next day (the date I thought I ordered it for) and turns out they had the whole order there the day before and it got wasted, I did get a notification but I assumed it was for my planned date all my fault, living in lala land over here Thankfully they took pity on me and re made my whole entire order, for no charge, so my son could have his fave food on his bday. Of course, I gave a tip to say thank you but I had to share this incredible act of kindness with everyone! The food here is the absolute best too, and now I know why, the staff running this location are so full of love they cannot help but cook with it! Thank you and I ll be back, time and time again. The right time though, promise
My wife and parents did not enjoy, and my wife loves Portuguese food. Maybe it was an off day. The service was great, very welcoming.
Authentic Portuguese cuisine. Excellent service.
Met John today to arrange our first catering service. He was excellent providing the options available to us. Welcoming atmosphere and great service. Everyone needs to check out this restaurant.
The sauce, THE SAUCE!!! The piri piri sauce is PHENOMENAL!!!
We picked up from this Ajax store for a staff party. The food was amazing fresh and plentiful! GREAT JOB !
I am so disappointed at this place. I was soo hungry, tried to order few things and when the price came up, it was soooo expensive. This place is ridiculous expensive. I asked the cashier to take some food out and while she was talking to.me she forgot to take one of the ribs out. Which by the way was soo expensive. I left the place, ane she came running to my car and asked me to give back the extra rib. This was soooo embarrassing and she took from my hand when I was in my car and took inside and put back to.the same place in front of other customers. Not just made me feel like i was stealing something that was her fault, she did all that in front of others and gave me attitude when I told her I did not appreciate her doing that. Wait I did not finish it. The soap i bought was so cold, the fish was not cooked well and the ribs sucks. I really think things need to change. It was to be my favorite place and then they changed the owners and now Im going through this embarrassing moment and so not necessary. If she made a mistake, thats too bad. Now coming running asking me to give the food back after I touched the plate and then puts back for others to eat. Thats disgusting. This is my opinion and they probably will say a different story to make them look ok. Typical way to go.
By far the best Portuguese chicken in Durham and I would even argue it can take on several in the city. The chicken, hot sauce and other delicious options are amazing. Definitely worth a visit!
So glad to have come across authentic Portuguese cuisine that is delicious, affordable with prompt and efficient service. I placed a catering order for my sons birthday party and couldnt be more happy. Staff was friendly, knowledgable and very organized in placing my order and setting it up for delivery. The food was delicious, great presentation and portioning. Highly recommend this to anyone looking to order Portuguese food.
Awesome authentic home style cooked real Portuguese food, that is served fresh, as I will return.
Best meal Ive had in ages. Wish I was in Whitby more often.
A great Lil gem to explore. To keep it short and sweet, the muscles were amazing and probably the best thing we had. The house stake needed salt and it felt like non was used on that plate. Over all the service and food was great, please visit them.
Known for the famous hot sauce and rotisserie chicken, but do try the quails. Always fresh when ordered and taste is exquisite. That s my meal
Get the positive out of the way The piri piri sauce was absolutely DELICIOUS! However, when we ordered a chicken and a half, they asked sauce on top, ok? To which we said no, on the side please . The main person in our group we were ordering this food for CANNOT have any spiciness whatsoever. Picked up our order and drove the 25 mins home, chicken was completely drenched in the sauce. They couldn t eat what we ordered that night such a waste. Also, not sure if they use mini chickens, but they hack up all the meat into small chunks and there seemed to be almost no white meat. Potatoes were good, rice was super bland. Was a pretty disappointing first visit and doubtful that we ll go back.
Hidden gem in Ajax, great food!
No nonsense take out and dine in, love the chicken sandwich! Great prices .
Staff are rude and the chicken is dry and cold . Stay away
Ive enjoyed the churrasco chicken and seafood Platter for many party events with my family and friends.
I ordered their ribs and potatoes and they food was AWFUL. The ribs were extremely dry, no sauce on my ribs, the potatoes were cold. Very disappointing.
I bought food after long time today at lunch, because i have no chance to come this way for any work anyway i ordered half chicken dinner with chucken veg and rice and sause on the top i tasted the veg its old and soggie(watery taste) the chicken i tasted is FEELS VERY BAD TASTE, I LEFT THE PLACE AS SOON AS I BOUGHT THE FOOD BECAUSE I PARKED MY TRUCK ON THE ROAD LATER I TASTED AWFUL, THE LADY WHO SERVED TO ME SERVED LIKE I AM GETTING FREE food from her,once upon a time i pass by i always buy food feom them but from my experience today, i never recommend this place to buy food.
Fantastic find. Great portions, fair price and tasty food. It was like eating out before the pandemic.
I did take out, the chicken was good and the salad was fresh. The rice was extremely dry and terrible. The potatoes were simply okay.
We ordered dinner from Churrasco of Portugal for our May 27th backyard wedding with 50 guests. The ordering process was so easy and I felt very reasonably priced for the amount of food that we received. They were able to deliver it to us, which was very convenient, and the food was hot when it arrived. We ordered trays of rotisserie chicken, filets of fish, rice, potatoes, salad and a seafood rice that had an incredible medley of seafood including lobster tails. Our guests ate very well!!
Quite tasty and very good portions. Half chicken and chicken breast cutlets are good. The piri piri sauce is also very flavorful. The sides are fresh and variety is nice. Great spot for lunch or great to cater for home as well if you are having guests.
Every time we come here we eat up the food so fast that we can t get a picture but this time we got takeout and caught a snapshot before we dove in. Safe to say we LOVE it here!
Excellent service! Very kind!
I order for take out half chicken dinner here but,when we get home to eat it s dry.. maybe because I ask the sauce on the side? but the sauce is only small cup literally not enough lol! I hope they at least put in a little bit big cup. The potato is good the rice is ok. Hope if ever we come back the can add more sauce and chicken is not Dry.
Their hours of operations aren t really their hours of operation, which is fine because we understand what it s like to have your own business. The chicken is amazing!!!!!! Really all their food is really good We are bi weekly customers and are never disappointed
I been coming here at least 3 times a week so friendly so tasty food this place Rocks
Great first time experience. Would do it all again.
Excellent food and service particularly from the Ethiopian waitress . Very friendly who makes you want to come back
My first impression wasn t what I was hoping for, absolutely love Portuguese food but this was a miss for me. The potatoes & rice lacked flavour and the chicken was hard and really dry almost like jerky.
We have been enjoying their food for years and it has always been totally delicious!! Today was very different, the chicken was dry and really salty and the rice had no flavor! The sauce that comes with it has always been really good with lots of flavor and some heat! I loved it on the rice, but today it had no flavor, no heat and it was overwhelming salty!! I cant image going back! Are they under new management? What a waste of money!
Food was good and portion size was big. Person at the hot table was rude and service lady in the dining was just okay not friendly or not impressed
Delicious food!
Had a Baby Shower for 35 people, made the order through email with no issues. Food amount was perfect, and food was phenomenal. Love this place.
Was passing by and tried the chicken sandwich, it was so good I had to give these guys 5 stars. Friendly staff and the food is amazing.
Honestly I was excited to try this place but everything lacked seasoning and wasn t good at all in my opinion, higher prices and didn t taste fresh just everything was not good I m sorry hopefully was an off day but won t be back. 2.5
Great spot in Ajax for Portuguese food. The chicken and hot sauce is incredible and the service was lovely too. Definitely try the marinated olives absolutely delicious!
Good food!
So nice place
Great food, great service, great prices! 100% recommend
This place is fantastic great place !
Best service for our Christmas party!!
Food was amazing, but the staff 5*
Best chicken and Portuguese cuisine ever!!! Must try! Food
Best chicken ever i had
Best catering Restaurant spent $500 for 45 people chicken, Rice, potatoes and Salad everyone loved. 100% recommend.
This was only the second time weve been there lately. The food is always great except last Friday they had no rice left, but we got everything else we wanted!
Tasty churrasco chicken, potatoes and rice but it was all pretty cold by the time I got it home. They have it ready when you take out so service is quick but it didnt taste as fresh or as hot as I would have liked.
The best bbq chicken, This is one of the best I have tried, excellent service.
Had the BBQ 1/2 Chicken dinner. Will say potatoes were perfect. The chicken however was Very Dry ! and hard to swallow. If I go back Im definitely not getting chicken again.
We were looking to try Portuguese food for the first time for our anniversary, so came across this local place. So we went to give it a try. upon entering, it was clear it was more of a take out place, the take out front counter and food and warmers right out front. Understandably due to covid for the focus on take out. Dining room nothing special. Utensils like from the dollar store and paper placemats. as we got the menus we asked about Paella which was showing on their menu online. they said they did not have it that day. My girlfriend wanted that, so we discussed if we wanted to stay or go somewhere else. We decided to stay and try other foods. We ordered flaming sausage app and then she ordered the chicken and i ordered the back ribs. App was ok sausage was a bit burned, black but was ok. There was a long time gap before they brought us the entrees. There was only one other table in the restaurant. i had thought maybe they were making fresh vs just scooping from the warmers in the take out section. i was wrong. once we finally received the entrees they were not hot at all, barely warm. my ribs with veggies and side greek salad, very dissappointing. Ribs were flavourful but warm at best and on the tough side, clearly taken from take out warmer. Veggies were terrible, cold and way over boiled, soft and limp and no flavour. i tried to put some butter on it and the butter would not melt as veggies were cold. Greek side salad was only pleasant surprise as it came in a bowl and was much larger than a side. 2 out of 5 for my meal. My GFs chicken was much better, good portions of chicken and flavourful. She had rice and side potatoes which were good. she said it rated 4.5 out of 5 for hers. For dessert we decided to try a few since they were only $5 each. choc mousse and nala i think it was called. they came in small take out style plastic containers. Mousse was very sweet and nala was ok. We both agreed not so great. So overall disappointing experience. My gf said she would get the chicken again but only on take out. I would not go back again. Prices are reasonable, though.
The chicken is good but BAD customer service. I ordered chicken for take out but changed my mind and decided to eat there. When i was paying, the guy and lady told me told me that i ordered for take out. I ask the cashier if i can eat it there and he said he doesn t know. (Dude your working there!) As i received my order, the staffs are glaring at us because i insisted on dining there. I was not able to enjoy my meal because of that. If you are in restaurant business like that, you should care for your customers need and should be able to accomodate for a slightly change. It is not even busy, and there are so much tables available. I am very disappointed.
I wish they had a location in Oshawa so I wouldn t have to drive all the way to Ajax when my family craves this place especially with gas prices now This place is always busy on the weekends for good reason. My family loves their BBQ chicken with peri peri sauce. I am a big fan of their fish and potatoes. We always do take out and it s fast service if you order ahead. I appreciate their hours of op. Abrigada!
The amazing aroma of their food fills up the room! Cravings for good chicken bbq with peri-peri sauce satisfied! They have a variety and lots of options of which one you d like to get and try. Salad was fresh and light perfect with the big pieces chicken!
The food was fresh and delicious. Definitely, will be going back.
This place is a bit like nandos at Kennedy Commons and a bit like brassas in Mississauga. Its not as great as both. Wish they gave more sauce but overall the portions are huge, the food is still really good and the prices are very fair. Wish the hot sauce was spicier but thats just my opinion.
Fresh fried fish. Enjoyed our sit in dinner Polite and friendly atmosphere. Great customer service. They have great chicken too.
Excellent food, large portions and great prices!
This place is amazing, They have a wide variety of menu especially if your a fish lover, The prices are amazing versuse the amount of platter you get. I highly recommend trying it out.
Best Portuguese Chicken around! The piri sauce is amazing! Ordered the half chicken dinner which comes with rices and potatoes - perfect amount! 5/5 would highly recommend.
The best Portuguese Chicken Ive ever tasted! Lots of other yummy choices, but dont forget dessert, the Chocolate Mousse is amazing. Staff is very friendly and helpful.
Tried chicken dinner. I dare you to finish it alone in one sitting. Sooo good amazing quality and quantity
Food is good. Costumer service is horrible the fact that, I was only in side for less then 5mins just to pick up my order and the interaction was that bad. I don t need amazing customer service but just basic human manners.
The best place for Portuguese Chicken! Their sauce is top tier.
Really good food with huge portions. Staff were super friendly too
We didn t get the quality we are used to. Looks like you gave us a day old chicken that tasted like shoe leather. Very disappointed
We ordered ribs and half a chicken, the meat was really well prepared, each came in unique sauce. The potatoes and rice were pretty plain, not enough flavour, so keep in mind to dip them in sauce or ask for salt/pepper. They serve very delicious bread with butter and olives if you choose to dine in. Try their spicy oil - its really spicy. Parking: Convenient location on the plaza, parking was available
This is by far the best Portuguese chicken. Im never disappointed my one and only complaint is that I wish you had a location closer to Scarborough as we have no Portuguese chicken at all in Scarborough and Im sure it would be a great success.
Best Portuguese place you ll be to.
This was my familys first time coming to this restaurant, so we wanted to try everything! We never had authentic Portuguese food and had all our questions answered with great detail by the restaurant staff. They were very accommodating to our requests and ensured we had a great time. We definitely enjoyed the complimentary bread, and will be coming back next time we are in the area!
Great food
Amazing food Amazing service Great prices
Been here for take out only. Recently we decided to dine in. I always thought they only severed chicken. To my surprise they have a lot of different dishes. Wonderful fish options, steak, pork. The food is excellent. Service is friendly. Price is reasonable: it s a great family restaurant if you don t want to break the bank. Seafood is very good. They have the best chips with your meal. Only Portuguese places make them like this. Wish they had longer hrs.
Always loved this place. Been going for years. New ownership a few years ago but I think they are doing a good job keeping the quality.
I like the place and I love the food. I always take out.
We went yesterday for Dinner. I ordered Grilled Sardines with vegetables. My wife ordered the Churrasco chicken with a salad. All of it was delicious, normally we go to Dupont to eat portuguese food. But this place is equally good or better. Sara our server was fantastic. I am returning here to celebrate my birthday Great place unfortunately didnt take any pictures.
A real authentic Portuguese cuisine & chicken joint, excellent Churrasco chicken dinner comes with rice & potatoes, very large servings. Busy place for take-outs.
Parking: Lots of parking space Wheelchair accessibility: Can go through main entrance without difficulty
Worst service ever. We arrived at 7:15, and they said out loud that they will close soon and that if we wanted to sit down we could only eat what was left on the counter because they have closed the kitchen and were cleaning up. Really??? On their web page says they close at 8,but at 7:15pm they had already closed the kitchen and cleaning up and on top of that treated us as we were doing something wrong because we dare to come for dinner? Never again!!!
Food was cold and not fresh! Never go there again
Love this place. We always go here
Whenever I have a cravings for delicious food, this restaurant comes to mind. I appreciate how fresh and delicious the dishes are prepared. The chicken is tender, juice, and bursts with flavor. The little round potatoes are addictive. I always find satisfaction here. Strongly recommended.
Purchased 4 half chicken dinners. No sauce on the food asked for it to be on side. Live 15 minutes away and came home to sauce containers spilled everywhere in the bag. It was a total mess. Once home no one wanted to eat. You would think they would invest in better containers for sauce especially on an order of more than $70. We had no peri peri sauce on our food and didnt get to have the full experience.
I come here often to get their whole chicken! Its either BBQ or roasted, but both hit the spot. I especially like the spicy version since that is really good. I look forward to coming back here for more!
Havent eaten here but i forgot my wallet here when i bought some peri peri sauce and one of the employees delivered it to my house. I found that to be nice of them to do.
Just finished purchasing 120$ worth of this chicken, rice and potatoes. The rice and potatoes are pretty decent. The chicken tho, leaves much to be desired. We could barely eat it, it was incredibly dry. It was really hard to swallow. If this had been a much cheaper price point then I get it, you get what you pay for. This wasn t a cheap lunch, and to be almost suffocating from trying to eat this chicken and having spent what we did is really not fair, or worth it.
Ordered on a Saturday for a Sunday event! Had about 16 folks over, and got enough food for more than that. Everything was tasty, well flavoured and staff was super friendly and helpful. Would totally order again and would recommend to anyone looking for large amounts of food for a large crowd.
Best Portuguese cod and potatoes around. Ive tried several other places abd still this one is best.
Great portions of deliciousness....for an even better price. And a tiny grocery as well!
After a hike some friends and myself dropped by here. Between us all we ordered the chicken dinner, the cod fish and the chicken cutlets. Everyone really enjoyed the food. Chicken is amazing and authentic. Fish was great as well. Having been to Portugal, one thing we loved was all of the good food. Portuguese know how to eat.
Good food
Great Portuguese chicken in Durham!
The best portuguese food in Ajax! Every time I come back to town I have to go there and get the chicken and delicious potatoes!! The staff is very friendly and prices are great too!
Two churrasco bbq chickens, sauce (mild) on the side. Yes, this is my order, weekly. This spot is my go to chicken spot. Flamed grilled butterfly chickens, delicious home-made peri peri. The other stuff is good to, but I keep coming back for the chicken. Best value for Portuguese chicken in all of the GTA. Prove me wrong.
Ordered several items in the menu but found their food too salty. Also, we ordered for pick up at 7pm, but got notice that the food would be late. When I got to the store, the containers were not bagged yet and the lady who packed everything sure took her sweet time like no one is waiting. Will not come back here again.
Great Portguese chicken restaurant. As good or better that the Dupont Portuguese restaurants. But unfortunately in less than one year the price of dining in has gone up 20% and the food size, particularly the salads with meal have been reduced in half. I can understand the price increase from inflation, but reducing the food size is unacceptable. I probably won t be returning to this place, and will be going elsewhere. Too bad, it really was a great restaurant
Looks like this place is a family run restaurant and grocery store. The food had home cooked vibes. Delicious!
I get a whole bbq chicken with their amazing peri peri sauce, almost weekly, for the family.
Simply the best Portugese food I have tried in the GTA. The portions are large and super flavorful. This is restaurant is highly recommended!
My family is addicted to this place. The food is fantastic. I am making my way through the menu but my all time favorite is the Bacalhau À Casa Dinner! Heaven on earth. The prices are amazing! Thanks to all the staff they are truly amazing.
Definitely taste great, I would recommend calling into order !
The food quality is inconsistent, the first time my family got food here it was delicious and cooked perfectly. The few times since then weve gone back have been very inconsistent, chicken skin very fatty and watery instead of crispy, half the potatoes were hard and the other half way overcooked.
Best Portuguese food!
Amazing customer service! Potatoes were yummy! I got spicy peri peri sauce in a container and it was delicious. Im definitely going come back and try the chicken!
The young boy at the counter is extremely rude and judging by the treatment Ive witnessed of other fairer skinned patrons, Im getting major racist vibes. The chicken sucks anyway.
This place is a bit on the pricey side but absolutely worth it. Great food and even better customer service.
I tried their bacalhau for the first time and I wasted $60. I made the mistake of buying 3 bacalhau dinner meals for my family and me. It was unedible!!! The fish was sooooo salty you couldnt eat it. I asked my Portugese friends and they all said this is not how bacalhau should be. It seems they failed to soak the fish properly to get rid of all of the overwhelming salt in the fish. Never again will I waste my money for bacalhau at this place.
Food is Amazing. Warm service. Must try their Chicken and Potatoes!!
Half chicken dinner is simply amazing. The sauce is to die for. Ive never had this before and my first time trying. SO WORTH IT!
I tried this place for the first time on fathers day. We got the Chicken, rice, potatos and a Greek salad. The Chicken was grate perfectly cooked with a Smokey flavor and the dipping sauce was so good I wish it came with more. The rice and potato were a little bland in flavor for my taste but also cooked well. No complaints with the salad. I will be back for sure to get the chicken again and to try out the ribs and some of the sea food plates. The price is also very good $14 for a whole chicken you cant beat that.
Love coming here! Specially the churrasco chicken! Love it!
Seafood platter was delicious. Comes with a lobster, a crab, shrimp, clams, mussels, and calamari in a flavourful broth.
Great chicken sandwiches
We ordered several items for a family dinner, and it was fantastic. BBQ chicken, ribs, chorizo, rice, potatoes, and salad. So much more food than we expected and everything was cooked so well. Even grandma complimented the chicken! Definitely order from here!!
Best churrasco chicken outside of Portugal.
Favourite stop when driving past Ajax. We go out of our way each time to get their delicious food!
It was great
Its a very nice food court style restaurant with delicious food...we enjoy getting food there just like a special event even though its just an everyday kind of restaurant...
This cozy restaurant has left excellent impressions with me! The ambiance is welcoming and charming. The staff cares about your experience. The food is fresh and tasty, generous portions and great prices!!! I will for sure come back here again and again.
Love the chicken dinner !!!
Amazing chicken, loved it
Best Churrasco in Canada !!! My family drinks the sauce!!! Tender, delicious chicken its replacing my turkey at Thanksgiving!!
When Im in the area I will only eat here best most tasting chicken rice and potatoes highly recommended
What a little gem of a place. The serving staff at the counter were friendly and so cheerful. The place has a lovely country feel - could have been anywhere in Portugal perhaps. The crowd in there were familiar faces as if from the village nearby. We went there for lunch, and were absolutely delighted with the food. We had the half chicken dinner, the pork chop and the churrasco BBQ chicken. Each portion is super generous, and amazingly done to perfection. The chicken was off the bone tender and laced with the special sauce was an absolute delight. That peri peri sauce is to die-for delish! The pork chop was OK but could not stand up to the chicken. The mains are usually served with two side orders and we chose the rice and Parisian potatoes (absolutely a must try, yummy). The churrasco flavor chicken BBQ was great as well. Would have been great over a glass of table wine, but we didnt remember to order that. The prices for what you get are great. The meal was delicious. Will be back for sure! Highly recommend it.
Wow what a find! We were visiting this plaza accidently and came across this warm and cozy Portuguese grill. First of all, the staff are polite and friendly, the food is delicious with tons of flavor and the portions are huge and generous! I Would highly recommend!!
I didn t understand the hype about this place. First time trying it and was underwhelmed. The potatoes were stale, dry and oily. Potatoes should be crispy on the outside and soft on the inside and these definitely didn t taste like that, I couldn t even mash it for my son to eat. The chicken was ok - don t see how it s better than a rotisserie chicken from Costco. The skin was soggy and it was browned off everywhere, some skin was white. Overpriced for what they offer.
Best food in town
The food was very tasty, and you get a lot of it.
Follow @dineintoronto on insta/tiktok for more reviews. The food here is Delish!! I can t wait to go back and try the sandwiches they look huge. The proportions for price are great. I think the food is similar to nandos but SIGNIFICANTLY better.
