"Chez Doval is a quintessential small neighbourhood gem. Opened in 1974, this ultra-cozy, home-style restaurant tucked behind the Plateau’s Parc du Portugal ticks off all the boxes when it comes to no-nonsense Portuguese cuisine. That includes some superb grilled sardines, thrifty carafes of house wine, and a mighty fine chicken." - Valerie Silva
"Fittingly located steps away from Parc du Portugal on Marie-Anne Street, this rustic, no-fuss Portuguese spot has been a neighbourhood stalwart for nearly 50 years. The focus is on traditional, home-style cooking, with garlicky shrimp and salt cod fritters as starters and charcoal-grilled meats and fish — the sardines are delicious — for the main act. Add some house wine to wash it all down." - Joel Balsam
"On the quieter side, this rustic Plateau restaurant is all about traditional Portuguese fare. Expect lots of seafood and grilled meats." - Daniel Bromberg
"I often go to dinner at Chez Doval with my brother — there's always the waiter that doesn't smile but gives good service, and the singer; it was strange to see it empty and to know the ovens are off." - Tim Forster
"Open since 1974, Doval’s a Montreal institution and a Portuguese classic has a menu that’s beloved by many. Among those choices is a chargrilled chicken that’s a major favourite." - JP Karwacki
