About this restaurant

Good for special occasions
Great for fine wines
Good for business meals

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.

From the moment you are greeted to the staff and managers- this place is exquisite! The ambiance, the food was delicious and was paired perfectly by the sommelier. Our server Alex was accommodating and treated us like part of the family. We loved it!

I had a very pleasant experience at the restaurant. The food was excellent — well-prepared, flavorful, and clearly made with quality ingredients. The ambiance was warm and inviting, and the service was attentive and courteous throughout the evening. While the menu could benefit from a bit more variety, everything we tried was outstanding. Overall, a great dining experience that I would not hesitate to recommend. I look forward to returning

Really wanted to love this place but it fell way short. First the tables on the back wall are placed embarrassingly and insultingly too close. To get out my behind is literally on the table next to me which is rude and unsanitary. I thought the fish entree would have flavor but it was a chewy and season-less sable fish. The octopus was good. The crudo ok. The cod was nice. The vegetables were a bit on the crunchy side and lacked flavor also. I’m not sure how it reached Michelin but it was a mistake for us - especially it being a special dinner. Our table didn’t get dusted which I would expect there. The beignet/churro dessert was delicious and the only thing I would go back for.
