Bairrada Churrasqueira was founded in 1989 at 856 College St. where it existed for five years. It was then relocated down the street to 1000 Colleges St. where within five years it catapulted itself into a level of its own among Portuguese restaurants and its community. This has allowed the "Bairrada" name to expand by opening locations in Mississauga ... more
Worst customer service ever experienced by our group of five. Very rude waitresses
Embarrassment to our guests from out of country.
Best to drive to Mississauga location for both food and service.
Going to a nearby bakery for coffee and dessert since they clearly didn't care to provide any service.
honestly this place can be really good.
...but most of the time its not.
its hit or miss
i usually go in the evening, maybe thats why? not sure
i usually go to their take out section, and normally order grilled chicken and potatoes.
when they shine, the chicken and potatoes are REALLY good.
but 8 out of 10 times its awful.
ive got potatoes that were super dry/h@!%!*n the outside and oil...

Best meal for your money
Huge portions well seasoned meals great service,
When having a meal here it's a very relaxing no turnover start with a glass of wine and a appatizer, then your main course
They are one of the best Portuguese chicken places in the GTA , But you must try the other dishes.
From fish to steak.
The bar prices are also great .
This is a chain they have a few stories in...

Bairrada Churrasqueira Grill is one of the few Portuguese restaurants in Toronto that actual Portuguese people go to for Portuguese food. There are absolutely no pretentious downtown hipster here to spoil an authentic food experience. Well, semi-authentic. An authentic experience would involve the very least a show of live animal slaughter. If you want the authentic experience, it would include... more
We got take out from this place...
The chicken was dry and gross. We were given a tray covered in tin foil containing our chicken, rather than proper take out containers - nearly spilling it all in our car though it really wouldn't have been any loss..
Ordered a side containing clams - and were given one clam.
This place sucks.
Wouldn't recommend to anyone. Save your money and try one of...

unfortunately ,the food was almost ,inedible .chicken only compares to Churassco in name. not taste . steak was totally left, not worth eating. only plus ,the salad was excellent and potatoes good
I've gotten take out hear a few times and it was fine. Yesterday I waited and regulars came in after me and they would serve them Right away and ignore me. I didn't even get any eye contact. I will not be going back.
We had some business in the area, and I had always wondered about this chicken place, so we got takeout for 7 people and shared it for lunch at work.
*Chicken-I wanted to love it-I liked it. Found it a bit dry, especially the white meat.
*Potatoes-the little round ones-love. Creamy, savory, big winner.
*Rice-it's rice.
*Veggie-it's broccoli.
The piri piri sauce is uber-greasy. Mildish...

Went there last month entrance looked small but the backyard is huge with a large dining area. We had ordered chicken, ribs, halibut and roast pork. Portions were big and we shared it. We went there with reservation on Saturday early evening, later on the whole restaurant was packed. Service was good and food were ready after twenty minutes we... more
You walk through a narrow restaurant out to a beautiful courtyard which seemed to have room for hundreds. Fortunately, we were there for a weekday lunch and it was not mobbed. The grouper I had was excellent and my companion's chicken was excellent. While this was a 'outdoor barbeque' atmosphere, the food was delicious.
By the way, this restaurant is now at 2293 St Claire
Although in a modest section of town this place is a truly nice casual family restaurant serving good down-to-earth Portugese food. We had a large family and friend group dinner on Saturday which virtually took over the entire restaurant. Service was excellent, prompt and professoinal. The ambience was OK...

Huge portions, delicious complimentary bread bowl, delicious meat, cheap booze, what else could you ask for? Driven by here several times in my neighborhood, buy just now got around to trying it. It was a pleasant surprise and far exceeded our expectations! The atmosphere is clean and simple with several large flat screen tvs, great for watching sports! Service was quick, friendly and... more
From having eaten there before, I can say that the BBQ chicken take-out was good, if a bit greasy. My issue is that they can't seem to decide on their hours! Their official website says that they close at 11pm on weekdays, except Tuesdays, when they're closed. The signs posted on their door say that they close at 10:30pm. I... more
If you're someone who usually spends no more than 15 bucks and enjoys a very good and taste Portuguese meal, this is an excellent option.
My wife and I went to Bairrada Churrasqueira Gril, 2422 St. Clair West. If you don't have a car, take the street car and enjoy the St. Clair Avenue. No more than 20 min. from...

We had a lovely inexpensive family meal ($200 for eight) on their very large shaded terrace. There is a beautiful garden with a little brook and a pond where the kids could run off to to burn off their fidgets. The food was good, the mixed plate appetizer was very tasty. I would be happy to return next time we... more
Went to take out window so can't comment on dine in. Needed to feed a hungry crowd of teenagers. Ordered 2 and a half whole chickens, a large order of Parisienne potatoes and a large rice. Total was $39.00!! Way cheaper than ordering pizza or Swiss chalet for this crowd. Comfortably fed 6 kids and 2 adults and we didn't finish it all. Yay! Leftovers! Chicken was delicious. Moist and flavorful.... more
The food was dissappointing - the beef steak with egg was tasteless and the sardines were dripping in oil and did not taste good too.
What was unforgettable was the service approach of the waitress. (table 10, 22:39 , July 7, receipt says served by Luis).
I ordered half pint beer. She brought a glass that looked like full pint....

I went to this restaurant the service was horrible (no flavor at all)I asked for my steak well done I got it pink the waitress only showed up at the end of our meal I didn't eat the food and paid full price. When I confronted the waitress all she could say was sorry I... more
Bairrada's a bustling, popular spot for Portuguese, and for good reason. While they're best known for their BBQ chicken and multiple cod recipes, Bairrada has a rotating menu of weekly specials, so there's different stuff every day. I just tried the stewed goat with potatoes and rice, and it was delicious (though not the best choice if you're looking for a light meal).
This location is spun...
