Suppose Ferreira Café has quickly established itself as one of the best restaurants in town. In that case, there is no mystery: a visionary owner, an inspired chef, high-quality products, and a talented and dedicated team. In Montreal, Ferreira Café gives Portuguese cuisine all its nobility.

Ferreira is an unforgettable experience that promotes discovery, sharing, and conviviality in a warm atmosphere. This is today's Portugal, in downtown Montreal. And we come back to it again and again.

- Established in 1996 -

Why they're an Icon

From the OpenTable editors: Since opening its doors in 1996, Ferreira has set the bar for refined Portuguese dining in Montreal. Ultra-fresh seafood stars in dishes like Lagareiro octopus or daily catches flown in from Portugal. The predominantly Portuguese wine list, recognized by Wine Spectator, pairs seamlessly with the sleek decor, which transitions easily between business lunches and elegant evenings.

What a gem of a restaurant! Food is extraordinary and great service. Shout out on the ham (menu describes as best in the world....and it probably is). Arguably, the calamari is even better. Best I've ever had. Staff are attentive and the atmosphere is very comfortable.
