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“

“Uptown Churrasqueira is a nice place to eat. They serve yummy chicken and fresh veggies. The chicken was a little cold, and they could have used more sauce (I asked for extra sauce), but it was still cooked well. The veggies were really fresh and tasty. There isn’t a lot of seating, so be prepared to take it on the go!I think it's a good spot to grab a bite, so I would give it five stars. You might want to try it if you're in the mood for some tasty chicken and veggies.I will add though, the area is hard to get in and out of due to the Finch traffic, but if you’re willing to brave it, then you’ve got a good chance at enjoying this place the same way that I did.“

“Ive been a loyal customer of Sao Miguel Churrasqueira for the last 5 years and the food and service never fails! The food is always fresh, large portions and im always treated like im family. Theyve always gone the extra mile and they deserve the 5 🌟 review. If you're in the west end, I would recommend to stop by and grab a bite. Try the hot sauce 🥵 home made and packs a punch 👊🏾💥“

“We arrived within 5 minutes of the kitchen closing but the service was fantastic. Nothing missed. I would have loved to go over the menu a little bit longer but it was on me to arrive that late.
The food was delicious and the portions very generous!
Will definitely come back, with a little bit more time to go over the available choices.“

“Excellent evening this place gives you an abundance of tasty food served hot and displayed nicely. Good service an good food a definite home cooked meal to come back to. The ambiance is date but the food makes for that .. Once tried you will go back for more ..“

The service was very nice and our food came out quickly. We enjoyed our stay and will definitely be back!“

“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. We highly recommend them for any corporate or catered event and will definitely be ordering again! 🇵🇹⚽🍽️“

“This place is amazing. The owner, Linda was so warm and inviting she made us feel like we were being welcomed into her home. The food also tasted like a real home cooked meal. 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!“

“Food was excellent.

Only issue i had was that the special that just states lunch special is different for take out and eat in. When I asked the difference it seemed that the cashier was bothered so I just decided to have it take out.

Did enjoy the service, but the food did deserve 5 stars.

Very enjoyable.

Going to try again and hopefully it was just an off day for the cashier.“

“The food and service is outstanding. For the quality of food, the pricing is great value. We’ve been several times and will keep returning.

If you are looking for a party venue, be sure to ask about their upstairs event venue. It was perfect for our mother’s 70th birthday (60 people).“

“The food was absolutely delicious and the staff were exceptional. The establishment is very clean and has an upscale feeling with home like treatment. The owner came around to check on each table. Warm and welcoming. My 9 year old grandson loved his food and pinches of the cheek from the maître d’. 😆 We’ve been before and will definitely come back again.“

“I have been coming here for years, and the quality has never dropped once. This is hands-down the best Portuguese chicken in the area. The chicken is always perfectly grilled, incredibly juicy on the inside, and packed with that smoky, spicy Loco flavor that keeps you coming back for more. The portions are generous, the sides (rice and potatoes) are always piping hot and fresh. If you haven't tried their chicken yet, you are missing out. A true local gem!“

“Tres bien! Amazing customer service, genuine and hospitable. Good eats too ;-)“

“I had such a wonderful experience at Nando’s, and I wanted to recognize Maria for her exceptional service. She was incredibly welcoming, friendly, and attentive from the moment we arrived. 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!“

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.“

“We celebrated our daughter’s confirmation gathering on June 6th 2026.
Lily and her team were amazing
The service was on point, the food was delicious and the tables were beautifully decorated. They took their time to make this special family gathering feel truly special.
Highly recommend!“

“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 went to Gallos after work one day for the very first time. I got recommended by family to check them out. I didn’t realize they were closing up and I couldn't believe how kind the owner was who stayed open just to accommodate and wait for me to get there. Loris was so kind to me and made my first time trying gallos so special. He treated me like a part of the family and his mom was so sweet as well. The food was amazing and I loved the chicken, the rice and potato’s. We will definitely go back for the food as we loved it! He even sent me home with some delicious tarts. Thank you Loris for treating us with such kindness. I absolutely loved the food and enjoyed every bite!“

“Loves it“

“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.“
