This is a Churrasqueira restaurant in the Rogers and Weston Road area…read more Food - (4/5) - small menu of portuguese dishes for selection including the BBQ chicken - with your choice of traditional grilled or rotisserie. Decided to go with the Rotisserie as I prefer it a bit more moist. It was a pretty good combo... 1/2 chicken (standard size chicken not too big) with a ton of rice and potatoes and pepper sauce on the side. Chicken was done properly with nice level of browning of the skin and subtle flavour. They leave the flavour to you as it is on the side unlike other places where it is basted on. Potatoes were good - not too soft or overcooked and ample size. Rice was average - tons of it but just ok imo. Service (4/5) - friendly server and pretty quick turnaround overall. Atmosphere (4/5) - it is a small place with only a few tables to dine in but clean and orderly. Overall (4/5) - seems like a reliable place for takeout or dine-in. Chicken a bit on the small size... probably shrinkflation taking effect!

Good Portuguese chicken place!…read more They have 2 types of chicken: Rotisserie and Grilled. Grilled is supposed to be drier, but more flavourful, so I got that option! 1/4 Chicken + 2 sides was $9 and I couldn't finish it! Girl who was behind the counter piled it on. I'm not complaining as I had leftovers! She also gave me a "sweet" sauce which was more sour, vinegary and garlicky. It tasted really good! Chicken and potatoes were flavourful. Rice was a bit dry, but ok. My BIL got a container of Bacalhau ($8) and that tasted good, freshly made. Initially, the girl put it on a plate and it was A LOT of food. So he opted instead for a smaller container. There is seating, street parking only, so I'm guessing it's more of a takeout place. It was clean though, so if you're hungry, you can dine-in. My only complaint was that they should work on their menu. There's only a posted menu for their sides. Otherwise, it's a takeout menu with M-F specials, so prices weren't very clear. Great bang for your buck though as lunch for 2 ppl was under $20, taxes in!

How disappointing…read more Came here and had high hopes as the menu looked promising. The service at first was great. The servers were friendly and chatty. We came on a Wednesday night around 7:30pm and there were only 4 other tables apart from ours. The restaurant was fairly bright and the tables were nicely spread apart so that there was enough space to move around. There were 3 of us for dinner and so we decided to order 3 different main dishes to share. They were all pretty good size portions. BACALHAU À BRÁS - fairly large size portion and pretty tasty. I've had better elsewhere, but this was still good. CARNE DE PORCO À ALENTEJANA - good flavours; however, the pork was a bit dry, even though it was a bit of a saucy dish. PICANHA GRELHADA - grilled rump steak, served with black beans, French fries, and rice. This dish was terrible and I would NOT recommend! The steak was chewy and tough. When we told the server about this all he said to us was "well, sometimes that happens" and walked away. So, you're basically telling people that sometimes it just happens that you serve terrible food and you still expect people to pay full price for it. Because of this dish alone and the server's response to our feedback about the dish, I will never go back to this place again and I do not recommend this place at all. If I'm going to be paying those prices for food, they better be good. Also, when we made a reservation, we needed to leave credit card details for the booking. There are other places that are far better for Portuguese cuisine.

I love Nando's chicken. The flavor is always good, and I especially love the char. The staff was…read morefriendly and helpful, and I was told my order would take about 15 minutes, but it came out in under 10 minutes. The food was also hot and fresh. My biggest issue was the portion of the sides. I ordered a whole chicken with two regular sides, and the portions were surprisingly small. With that much chicken, I expected the sides to be more substantial. In my opinion, the two regular sides would barely be enough for two people, so I didn't feel like the meal offered the best value for the price. Overall, great flavor and service, but I think the side portions could definitely be more generous.

The atmosphere is very weird, the dining vibes are not it. It's open concept, lighting feels off,…read morethe seating is very dated and feels like you're at a low tier fast-food / run down mom and pop restaurant not a steakhouse. The service is not very attentive, we were seated and told to use the qr code for the menu. We picked our items and not one waiter decide to come back to take our order. We had to flag down a waiter, to give in our order. When the food arrive, they weren't even sure if it was for our table, the staff never came back to check if everything was okay. We had to also flag them down to get take out boxes, and again for the bill. The food: the appetizer, we ordered the calamari it had good flavours and were crispy. Slighly more oily but still delicious. The jerk chicken had good flavours and was very tender. The veggie upgrade is NOT worth it and extra $3 for 5 carrots and 3 broccolis. The rib eye steak was okay, the cut is not the best. The hot stone makes the table very hot, the plate holding it was cracked and hazardous imo. Fries in general were tasty and the 3 different sauces were good. In general this place needs to step it up a little, atleast with service since it's the easiest thing to change. The decor can come after..

We had come here on a Saturday evening at 6:00 pm for dinner. When we had arrived, it wasn't too…read morebusy however, we had made reservations in advance just in case they were needed. We were given a booth near the entrance of the restaurant, then given menus to choose our items from. We also noticed that there was a QR code on the table, in which we were able to scan and view the menu on our phones. Once we had chosen our items, we waited patiently, while admiring the music playing on the loudspeaker, and the television screens showcasing the menu items in video format. The restaurant itself was dark, with moderate lighting, and a calm ambiance. More guests started to come as we were seated, and the restaurant became busier. Since we had ordered an appetizer, we were waiting on that to arrive while watching other guests arrive. Calamari was the appetizer in which we had chosen, as we both enjoy eating it. It was a tad spicy, and didn't have a lot of sauce on the plate to dip the calamari into. However, it did have a nice kick to it, and was easily eaten by us both. We then had to wait another ten to fifteen minutes to receive only my meal, which was the hamburger with melted cheese. We would have liked to receive our meals together however, the lamb that my husband ordered took much longer to arrive. Since the lamb came about fifteen minutes after the hamburger, the kitchen provided us with a complimentary salad, which we found generous. Both the lamb and hamburger meals were well-prepared and tasty however once again, not enough dipping sauce was provided for fries, and the salad on the plate with the lamb was covered with the sauce used for the lamb. Service was great throughout the entire night, with the server coming by to check on us, and apologize for the long wait for the lamb to arrive. Overall, this restaurant had tasty food and a chic ambiance however, the prices were a little high, and some of the presentation items (lack of sauce, slow service) were a bit of a let down. However, this place definitely had a lot of options, and would surely satisfy any hungry individual looking for a well-made meal.

Solid, authentic, takeout Portuguese chicken place!…read more Storefront is super hidden in a plaza BEHIND another plaza that faces Kennedy Rd. You enter through an alley which opens up to another, newer plaza. Absolutely no menu posted anywhere - digital or otherwise. As a first-timer, this doesn't give me the best impression, but the friendly female worker behind the counter was quite friendly and seemed honest! She said that they were in the middle of revamping their menu. Eatery consists of a counter with chafing trays behind glass. I grabbed dobrada (tripe & bean stew) - $6 (XS) and a half chicken dinner w/ 2 sides - ~$12. Everything tasted good!

Hello, foodies today I bring you a hidden gem of traditional Portuguese cuisine, I have had many of…read moretheir food options here, and the food has all been fabulous.  Today I happened to grab their chicken This place has great grilled and BBQ Portuguese chicken plus a ton of other items on their hot table everyday which they rotate on a daily bases including fish, Meat, ribs, pasta, fresh salad options, and many other amazing authentic Portuguese delicacies. Out of all the Portuguese restaurants in Brampton, they sure have the most options as far as what they offer on their hot table or made-to-order. They function mainly as a takeout place with some catering options. They are nestled in a plaza just of Kennedy and Clarence St in Brampton with plenty of parking. Their prices are also very reasonable for such great food made with lots of love and cooked in a very traditional way. Today I opted to grab their BBQ chicken special for $9.00 that includes ¼ chicken white or dark meat, BBQ or Rotisserie your choice with two sides, and a pop drink so I got there rice and potatoes you have the choice also of salad or veggies. You can't go wrong at this price. Food 5/5 The chicken was very nicely BBQ with a nice char on the skin and cooked thoroughly, great flavors and with their Spicy hot sauce, it's a kind of like a franks hot sauce taste, it's  a must-have on your chicken, they also give you the option of a mild version if you can't handle the heat. The small round Portuguese potatoes were also just amazing, perfectly cooked, and very tasty. The red Portuguese-style tomato-based rice was also cooked to perfection and delicious. Service 5/5 Super friendly staff, the service was quick and they take care of you with a smile, if you're looking for some amazing Portuguese authentic cuisine I suggest you stop into this place and grab some food you will not be disappointed.

We go there for fast short-order rotisserie grilled chicken takeout. The restaurant section becomes too busy during lunch and dinner times. Languages spoken by the staff are Portuguese, English and Spanish. This setup functions mainly for takeaway but if you prefer eating inside there's a separate menu which you order from your waitress.

Just a heads up there's no seating while waiting, and it's cash only. The first time I came here, I got the medium 1/2 chicken meal with a natas, plus a striploin on the side. Everything was really good and honestly worth the drive. The second visit wasn't as smooth. I ordered the Bife à Casa and expected regular fries because I saw them in someone's Google review, but it actually comes with fried potato rounds instead. I called to clarify in case I got the wrong dish, and they confirmed that's how it's served. In the end, the potatoes paired well with the steak, so I wasn't upset about it. What did disappoint me was that they forgot the gravy that was supposed to come on the side. When I mentioned it, they acknowledged it should've been included and said I could mention the issue next time for a possible discount. Service also felt a bit disorganized during this visit. My steak took a while, which I can understand, but another customer's chicken sandwich was missed completely and she had to wait an extra 10 minutes after already being told it would be quick. The sandwich was sitting on the service counter for a while, and it only got resolved after she followed up again herself. Food is still solid overall, especially the chicken and steak, but service consistency could definitely improve.
