Portuguese Restaurants near North York, ON

“Food Very Good but as in any place once in a blue moon it goes wrong DONT COMPLAIN they hate that but overall I gave them a 4.5 stars“

“First time...turned in when I noticed the place driving by. I prefer white meat which you don't usually get at Portuguese Churrasqueiras, but the dear lady said she could do it for me.
Also got a nice big salad on the side.
Plus she gave me a couple of very tasty pork pieces to try. It felt so homey, I would go back just because she was so nice! Good food and good prices“

“We ordered catering from Bairrado for a work event while watching the Portugal game, and it exceeded our expectations. The food was fresh, authentic, and absolutely delicious. Everything was prepared perfectly and delivered on time, making the event easy and enjoyable for our team. Everyone at work loved the food and had great things to say about the quality and presentation. Bairrado helped make the Portugal game even more memorable.

Everything is homemade including the pastel de nata as you can see in the photo - it was by far the best one I’ve ever tried. Highly recommend!“

“Greet Portuguese food. We had the calamari, tried the pork and beef sandwich’s. And of course chicken with rice and potatoes. Unreal! We drove an hour to try this place and it was worth it! Will be going back. Gotta try the seafood rice (order ahead takes 45 minutes as it’s made fresh to order). Must try!“

“Haven't been here in a year or two, but we've been coming here for 20 years. The food is still the same excellent quality. Shared the platter for 2. The chicken wings are delicious. So was the calamari and tiger shrimps. The fries and veggies are very flavourful as well. Shared a tart and strudel for dessert. Both were delicious.
It was quiet on a Tuesday evening but great to see the food quality is as good as its ever been.“

If you’re craving true, authentic Portuguese comfort food, look no further than Costa Verde Toronto on Oakwood Avenue.

Tucked right between trendy St. Clair West and hip Eglinton West, this spot is one of the city’s best‑kept secrets — a neighbourhood treasure serving up flavours that feel like home.

They roast some of the most incredible Portuguese‑style rotisserie chicken you’ll ever taste. Juicy, tender, perfectly seasoned, and paired with roasted potatoes that are vibrant, crispy, and unbelievably delicious. It’s the kind of meal that makes you close your eyes for a moment just to savour it.
And the menu doesn’t stop there.

From hearty fava beans to beautifully breaded fish and so much more, Costa Verde delivers generous portions that guarantee you’re getting your money’s worth. Don’t be surprised if you leave with leftovers — the servings are huge, and every bite is worth it.

And let’s talk about dessert: their Portuguese custard tarts are exceptional. Golden, creamy, and absolutely addictive.
The cooks are masters of their craft, and the staff are warm, welcoming, and wonderfully attentive. It’s the kind of place where you feel taken care of the moment you walk in.

Costa Verde is a must‑visit.

The food is outstanding, the portions are generous, and your taste buds will be thanking you long after the meal is over.“

She went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect, and her positive attitude truly made our visit even more enjoyable.

It’s employees like Maria who make customers want to come back. Thank you, Maria, for your kindness, professionalism, and outstanding hospitality. Nando’s is lucky to have you on the team!“

“Came here to get a beefana to go. They make them really good here and you can't beat the price!

Its mostly older Portuguese people here, and it really is a place stuck in a time capsule. Great for watching soccer games.“

“One of my family members said this is the best place for Portuguese food in Toronto. We were hungry so we thought we would give it a try. We phoned through our order and went and collected it and once it was home we tucked in. The food was EXCELLENT! There was plenty to go round and for us all. Highly Recommended!“

“I have been a longstanding customer for over 35 years and today was the best grilled chicken and hot sauce that I have ever had. The chicken was juicy and had real grill taste and the hot sauce is somewhere between warm and hot so pleasing to everyone. Fries were hot and freshly fried. Could not be happier.“

“I want to give a huge shout-out to the amazing waitress Paula! Every time I visit, she and Shan are the only ones who are always smiling, incredibly polite, and ready to serve with enthusiasm. The food is consistently delicious, making it truly worth experiencing Portuguese cuisine in Toronto. Note: They always provide exceptional service ????“

“Had a custom cake made for my daughter's confirmation...it was amazing: colours for the outside 👌. Cake was absolutely amazing and so fresh. Everyone enjoyed it!!! Employees were amazing with communicating any requests. Thank you team Nova Era.“

“The Portuguese chicken was absolutely delicious—juicy on the inside, perfectly grilled on the outside, and packed with flavor. The spices were well balanced, and the peri-peri sauce gave it a nice kick without overpowering the taste. Definitely something I’d order again.“
