Portugal Atmosphere

Nicolas Payer

(Translated) I ordered 1/2 chicken with fries for take out, the chicken was delicious, but unfortunately the fries weren't cooked, soft, white !!!! So we’re forgetting the perfect score for now! (Original) J’ai commandé pour emporter , un 1/2 poulet avec frites, le poulet était délicieux , mais les frites n’étaient malheureusement pas cuites, molles, blanches !!!! On oublie donc la note parfaite pour l’instant!

Shéraz K

We were travelling and after seeing the reviews we stopped here for Portuguese chicken combo take out. For the price of 30$ and even after tipping the waiter we haven't received any ketchup for our fries.. the accompanying sauce for the chicken and fish were in very small containers - not even sufficient for a quarter chicken, no cutleries !!!! 3 hard buns as Portegeuse bread ??? Salty hard chicken, soggy fries and finger sized cod !!!! No value, could have picked up some fast food. Improve in your client service and not making profit by saving a few pennies...

Melanie Desormeaux

This place was absolutely amazing. Thefood is fresh, big portions, amazing selection of wine and the service.. Absolutely 5 +++

Kinga Racz

Ordered their food for the first time and it tasted great! The chicken had tasty seasoning on it and the the fries were good too. Definitely recommend and will order again.

Hedi Manai

(Translated) I really loved the mussels and the prawns as a starter but the sticky rice in seafood is just a treat. well done (Original) J'ai vraiment adoré les moules et les crevettes en entrée mais le riz gluant en fruits de mer est juste un régal. Bravo

Manon Chiasson

Everything was absolutely delightful and the service was exceptional.. Definitely coming back here..

Ro Durocher

Went here for a birthday reception with 11 other folks and the dining hall has an appropriate amount of tables for the general size. We took the meat platter alongside some of the house wine and everything was fantastic. Great staff and great food, worth a try if you like salty portugese food!

Scarlett Nunez Gomes

Excellent food, better services. Authentic Portugues food. Fish soup, cod fish, chicken churrasco. We truly enjoyed.

Katia G.Marchal

(Translated) WE STRONGLY RECOMMEND, I returned for a second time in a month and a half with my spouse, mother and sister living in Montreal. This is undoubtedly a restaurant of excellent quality and originality, an intimate and typically Portuguese gem. All are delicious - I have a thing for grilled cod. Very good service, good value and delicious on the palate. (Original) NOUS RECOMMANDONS FORTEMENT !J'y suis retourné pour une 2e fois en un mois et demi avec ma conjointe, ma mère et ma sœur qui habitent Montréal. C'est incontestablement une restaurant d'une excellente qualité et originalité, un petit bijou intime et typiquement portugais. Tous y est délicieux - j'ai un faible pour la morue grillé. Très bon service, bon rapport qualité-prix et délicieux en bouche.

Have been this restaurant 6-7 times within recent 5 years, every time is was a happy dinner with my friends or families. Definitely, come again when travel to Ottawa/ Gatineau

Cris Sinnott

Great food in a lively atmosphere

Robert Mitchell

The service was excellent, the atmosphere relaxing and pleasant and the food outstanding. A great discovery. This restaurant exceeded our expectations in every way.

Thomas Robert

Fantastic! Hard to find Piri Chicken that good. Everything was so delicious. Fast and friendly service.

Joanne McKinnon

I cleaned up my diet a few years ago. The health benefits make it easy for me to stick with it. Unfortunately, it does make dinning out a bit difficult. So, it is always a great pleasure when we succeed in finding a restaurant with several healthy choices on the menu. For our first visit, we selected the traditional Cataplana de Marisco (Seafood Cataplana) for 2, served in a clam steamer. Generous and excellent. All served and explained by the lovely Alexandra. My husband and I enjoyed our meal with a nice bottle of Bacalhoa Catarina White. I even tried the dessert, something I never do. Well worth the extra calories. We will visit this restaurant again.

Jose Vicente Lazo

Nice little restaurant. Good service, clean and tasty food.

Ana PL

This restaurant was amazing, the food was delicious, the staff was friendly and the owner is great! Will be back again when we are back in the area!!!

Isabelle Breton

(Translated) Very good restaurant! Affordable prices for dinner. I have a gluten allergy and I ate very well, we also had very good service. (Original) Très bon resto ! Prix abordables pour dîner. J'ai une allergie au gluten et j'ai très bien mangé, on a aussi eu un très bon service.

Jennifer Tang

Really enjoyed the food and atmosphere. The prices may seem high, but for the portions and the taste, it is worth it. I just thought the particular waiter who served us kinda gave us a weird vibe, but it’s okay. Highly recommend and I would go back for sure!

Marcela Turizo

I love the chicken of this place, the atmosphere and the staff service, BUT the portugese steak is horrible, it has no flavor, I do not recommend this dish. Cod is a good option. Desserts are good and side dishes too

Biren Shah

Good Portuguese food. Small place but authentic.

Eagle Leung

Excellent services, best dog friendly patio, great food !!

shacomd

(Translated) Excellent chicken !!! Viva portugalos !!! (Original) Excellent poulet!!! Viva portugalos!!!

Sandro Maculan

The food is not restaurant quality, everything lacked seasoning and the vegetables were plain and undercooked. The staff is friendly, I just wish they would put some effort and care into their plates.

Pat Belly

One of the best restaurant meals I've ever had... Every combination of flavour was expertly crafted and tasted delicious. Will definitely return.

Sarah dos Santos

Good food for good price. Pick up is also available. Menu is available on their website.

Terry Fung

Services impécables...

Lindsay Macedo

I've been here a few times, and have never been disappointed! As a Portugese person, this is the best comfort food ???? Definitely get the cod cakes, and the caldo verde! Highly recommend!!

Louise V

(Translated) Best chicken in town and what about the sauce .... mnmmmm. To try it is to adopt it! (Original) Meilleur poulet en ville et que dire de la sauce....mnmmmm. L’essayer c’est l’adopter!

Antonio Romeo

I organized my father's 70th Birthday Party at Portugalos for his love of fish and seafood. The owner Anselmo did not disappoint. Dish after dish was on point. It was like a seafood buffet on the table. Lobster, Shrimp, squid, giant …

Joseph Maczka

Delicious food, attentive service! The house red wine is pretty uninspired, but everything else makes up for it.

Devon Cassidy

Excellent every time I go.

Victor De Sousa

Very nice restaurant. The food was fantastic I am a repeat customer . Muito obrigado Manuel. ????????????

Breno de Lima

Truly fantastic!

Tatiana Blinova

Lovely place with a cozy terrace. Perfectly spiced chicken(on the salty side for me, but that applies for almost all restaurant food). Kids loved the mashed potatoes and rice. Dessert was nice. Great service. Notice to the owner : the tea cup had a crack????).

Caroline Fyfe

(Translated) Courteous service, good food and atmosphere. The grilled salmon was delicious and the desserts too! A beautiful discovery! (Original) Service courtois, bonne bouffe et atmosphère. Le saumon grillé était délicieux et les desserts aussi! Une belle découverte!

Miguel Gil

Authentic, warm, with great food and atmosphere!! ????????

Yutong Huang

So good!

Maria Zentefis

(Translated) It's been a long time we didn't eat well like that. The grill was delicious! We had a chicken, chop and sauce combo. Grill as you wish and very tasty! The rice was ok, the fries not my best but different, next time I will try the loot potatoes. But it's nothing without their piri-piri sauce! The bread was fresh, the salad very nice but not enough dressing. I can't wait to taste the desserts too (photo to come) Portuguese Mousse and Caramel Flan. The liqueurs also being "exotic" Pineapple, Passion fruit and Orange. The service was very fast despite the inconvenience of the lack of staff and delivery person. Definitely recommend, especially if you have a craving for bbq and spiciness (only the sauce is hot). (Original) Ça fesait longtemps on avait pas bien manger comme ça. Les grillades était délicieuse! On a pris un combo poulet, côtelette et saucice. Griller a souhait et très savoureuse! Le riz était ok, les frites pas mes meilleures mais différente, prochaine fois j'essaie les patates piller. Mais c'est rien sans leur sauce piri-piri! Le pain était frais, la salade très belle mais pas sufisament de vinaigrette. J'ai hâte de goûter les desserts aussi(photo a venir) Mousse portugaise et Flan caramel. Les liqueurs aussi étant "exotique" Ananas, Fruit de la passion et Orange. Le service était très rapide malgré les inconvénients du manque de personnel et livreur. Je recommande vraiment, surtout si vous avez une envie de bbq et de piquant(seulement la sauce est piquante).

(Translated) My wife being Portuguese, we were delighted to come across this restaurant during our visit to Gatineau. I was able to discover some Portuguese dishes that she had told me about. It is excellent and the service impeccable. The very nice waiter and the owner who comes to see if everything is correct. It's perfect. We will be going back for sure. Too bad the restaurant is so far from home. Do not hesitate to go there !! (Original) Ma conjointe étant portugaise, nous étions ravis de tomber sur ce restaurant lors de notre passage à Gatineau. J'ai pu découvrir certains plats portugais dont elle m'avait parlé. C'est excellent et le service impeccable. Le serveur très gentil et le propriétaire qui vient voir si tout est correct. C'est parfait. Nous y retournerons pour sûr. Dommage que le restaurant soit aussi loin de chez nous. N'hésitez pas à y aller !!

Even the youngest loved his bifana sandwich very much. My wife's steak cooking was perfect. In short, that's good. We will definitely stay there again next time. Thank you. (Original) Excellent service. Plats succulents. Endroit tranquille, en tout cas pour un dimanche soir. Tout le monde a apprécié son repas, et ce, de l'entrée jusqu'au dessert.

Good Restaurant for Typical Portuguese fare, good selection with emphasis on fish. Fresh catch. Some selection on beef, chicken, lamb. Well executed recipes a little bit on the salty side. Well recommend for a sample of Portugal flavours.

Pretentious regarding the prices. I payed $30 for an entree that worths elsewhere $10 as an appetizer. I will surprisingly recommend Nandos than Portugalos. At least for Nandos you got what you pay for!

Derly Ramírez

(Translated) Delicious! Friendly staff, quick service (Original) Delicieux! Personnel symphatique, service rapide

Fernando Miguel

(Translated) It wasn't good because I ordered mussels for starters and they came with leftover rice inside the mussels why is it? And for the main course I ordered codfish at the house because there was half a slice of cod and from that half portion there was still a bit but it looked like it was leftovers from other dishes. (Original) Não foi boa porque eu pedi para entradas mexilhões e elas vinham com restos de arroz por dentro dos mexilhões porque será? E para prato principal pedi bacalhau à casa pois veio meia posta de bacalhau e dessa meia posta ainda faltava um bocado mais parecia que era restos de outros pratos.

Xavier Labonté Frey

Just Great!

Mathilde Recly

We went there for lunch with family. The food we ordered was good and the service was ok. Though, we didn't appreciate that much the fact that one of the waiter played with words to make us spend more and more. For example, he asked to the youngest among us if he wanted more water (without specifying if it was about the regular one) and added another bottle of sparkling water. As much as he asked us if we wanted coffees (espressos) and then charged them in the check, saying that the coffee included in the menu wasn't an espresso one. Too bad because except that, everything was cool. But we wouldn't come back for these reasons.

Smexz

They open the restaurant 3 hours early for party of 14. Great Food, Huge Portions. Would go again!

(Translated) Very good dishes good price a very cozy place. (Original) Muy Buenos platos buen précio un lugar muy acogedor.

L. L.

We ordered the three-course meal. I had the chorizo sausage appetizer, which was a little bit on the salty side but otherwise good. The piri piri chicken was excellent. The seasoning was perfect, and the chicken was tender and moist. The dessert was a mousse cake which was good, but nothing to write home about. Overall, a very pleasant experience and would come here for a group event again.

Bob Mess

Welcome to Portugal. The food was amazing and the ambiance has a familiar home feel.

Most definitely 5 stars especially for sea food lovers. Their cod fish dish is excellent and the staff is wonderful , very intimate and pleasant ????????????

(Translated) The chicken is good, but it's not spicy. The family size of fries is very small. The fries are super thin. I ordered take out and they didn’t put any utensils. The rice is good. (Original) Le poulet est bon, mais il n’est pas épicé. Le format familial de frites est très petit. Les frites sont super minces. J’ai commandé pour emporter et ils n’ont pas mis d’ustensiles.

Nice place for supper with good customer service, or just pop in for a delicious dessert.

Michaël Dumais

(Translated) The service is very friendly, the food is authentic, the dining room is large, the atmosphere is good and especially the prices are really reasonable! A glass of house wine at $ 6 ?! In addition, all the wines on the list are from Portugal. The desserts are also quite unique. It is to wonder why I did not go there before! I recommend! (Original) Le service est très sympathique, la cuisine est authentique, la salle à manger est vaste, l'ambiance est bonne et surtout les prix sont vraiment raisonnables! Un verre de vin maison à 6$?! En plus, tous les vins sur la liste sont du Portugal. Les desserts sont aussi assez uniques. C'est à se demander pourquoi je n'y suis pas allé avant! Je recommande!

You know when they say not to judge by the appearance.... This was one if the experience where it looks good but it was really not great. Home made fries looked amazing, and would have been if they hadn't dropped a bunch of salt in them.

Excellent!!

Suresh Bissessar

We were part of a tour group from South Africa. We were made up of 6 Indians and 4 black south Africans. We were the first and were attended to very hesitantly. A table was set up at the front for us. 4 of our black colleagues came after. the mAnager Emilio said the table that was vacant next to us was reserved. our colleagues feeling very uncomfortable left. no one occupied the table for the duration we were there. 4 people came shortly after with no reservation were ushered to a seat inside. We were made to feel that we being foreigners and black had no place in his restuarant. I approached him about it and kept insisting the table for 4 was reserved for 7pm. surely by 7.30 or 7.45 PM u could allocate it to people were waiting. His demeanor and attitude really made us feel uncomfortable

Mark Mendonca

What a wonderful place to feel comfortable. Great food great staff. Seafood with flavor and amazing service to go along with a wonderful experience.

Eric Vaz

Food was excellent. Service was great. Weill come again.

Cédric Leblanc

(Translated) The fries were excellent, the chicken was decent, the starter mussels good and it all seemed relatively healthy (as much as the fries can be). We had poor service (waiting in right in the lobby, they seemed to bother them) but the other guests seemed to receive a nice smile and compliments and were served immediately. (Original) Les frites étaient excellentes, le poulet correcte, les moules en entré bonne et le tout semblait relativement bon pour la santé (autant que des frites peuvent l'être). Nous avons eu du service médiocre (attente dans raison dans l'entrée, on semblait les déranger) mais les autres clients semblaient recevoir un beau sourire et des compliments et étaient servis immédiatement.

John Reis

I was told to go to this restaurant by a local grocery store owner in Ottawa — Mario’s Food Centre. He wasn’t wrong, the restaurant is very cozy and welcoming. The server was very …

Jean-Michel Genest

I rarely post reviews but feel like i have to do my share this time. I do not agree with a number of the reviews that give 2 stars or so to this place. I have been there twice now and each time, the experience has been thoroughly amazing. They serve authentic portuguese cuisine and I dare anyone to find better cost/value when it comes to their grilled fish and/or their seafood dishes. I didn't find it overly salty myself, but to anyone complaining this was too salty: Portuguese cuisine is somewhat salty to begin with.

Mary-Lynds Syllion

My experience here was mediocre. I ordered a plate with a few different types of meats, most of which were rather dry and flavourless. The bread provided to start was cold and seemed stale. Someone else at the table ordered a dish with clams in a wine sauce which was very good though, and the staff were great.

Jean P.

One of the few Portuguese restaurants in the region. Odd layout in commercial building, ample parking across the street in shopping centre. Classic Portuguese cuisine dishes from meat and fish to seafood. Some fish dishes lack the traditional spiciness. Reasonable prices for quality and quantity. Friendly and efficient service with a smile, owner on site. Good spot for introduction to Iberian type cuisine.

Theresa Kelly

Love love love this restaurant. Good food and great service. Even has a great take out option and catering services which we have both before.

Coffee Goddess

Where do I start? We were a party of four at Portugalos on a Saturday night. We ordered 1/2 litre of sangria and got a stained glass with red grime on the inside. They quickly gave us a new cup without hesitation which was appreciated. After waiting about 20 minutes to order our food, we ordered some appetizers and entrees. The appetizers came about 20 minutes later. Things were going fine until we finished the apps. Little did we know, we had to wait another hour until we got the entrees. To make it worse, the centre of my dish was cold! The waitress apologized and took it back into the kitchen. The man we believed was the manager came back with the dishes and 5 minutes later returned and rudely asked is it good enough now? When our bill came there were two mistakes on it which made our bill $20 higher than it should have been. We pointed those out, and he quickly went back to change the bill, but when he returned, only one of the mistakes had been corrected - obviously because he was only half-listening to us. We pointed out the second mistake and he went back to fix it, after explaining to us that it was because we had confused him by the way we had ordered. Aside from the absurdly slow service, most of our issues started and ended with our server, who might also have been the manager. Several of the other people who came by our table to drop off items seemed quite nice and capable, but the attitude from our main point of contact coupled with the speed of things really put a damper on the evening.

Unfortunately I was very disappointed, we had calamari and mixed meat platter. Taste wise it was okish, luckily the spicy sauce was actually good to is covered the lack of taste of the frozen unseasoned fries, mashed up to not say chewed up "beefana" bite size chorizo and undercooked chicken. Don't waste you time or money go somewhere else

(Translated) What a beautiful and tasty experience. Béchamel cod and Piri-Piri chicken, a delight. An exquisite Portuguese wine. And courteous and welcoming service. You have to experience it. (Original) Quelle belle et savoureuse expérience. Morue béchamel et poulet Piri-Piri , un délice. Un vin portugais exquis. Et un service courtois et accueillant. Il faut faire l'expérience.

Friendly home like atmosphere with great home cooked authentic Portuguese cuisine. If you love Seafood this is the best in Gatineau. They also have a variety of meat to satisfy any meat lover, on their menu. Great place to eat if you're in Ottawa

I ordered a half chicken for take-out and they handed it to me in 10 seconds! I should have looked inside before leaving and returned it, it was so light and tiny, the wing was just a nub. For $9 it was a complete a rip-off because it was so dry and burnt, you could choke on it - obviously sitting around for quite some time. The meat wasn't even marinated or seasoned, they just threw the smallest chickens they can get by with on a char grill and call it Portuguese chicken! Absolutely NO flavour except for the bitter char. You'd be much better off getting a REAL Portuguese-marinated 3lb WHOLE flattened chicken at the IGA for about $11 or a juicy WHOLE roasted deliciously-marinated chicken from Costco for $7.99!

(Translated) The food is good, but the portions are very small. Normally Portuguese restaurants are distinguished by tasty and generous food. (Original) La nourriture est bonne, mais les portions sont très petite. Normalement les restos portugais se distinguent par une nourriture goûteuse et généreuse.

Garlic shrimp starter is a must try. Octopus main was also good, quite tender.

Don't bother, showed up at 11:30 AM and was turned away. Was given the third degree for being English and having the audacity to show up so early. (Restaurant opens at 11:30)

This is one of the best Portuguese Restaurants in Gatineau. We really enjoyed our experience tonight.
