Welcome to Churrasco Of The St Lawrence

“ I got the Portuguese tart and coconut tart. I had already purchased my tart from Paddington but since this is branded as "Portuguese cuisine," I wanted to come the tarts since MOST OF THE BAKERIES AT ST.LAWRENCE ARE SELLING THESE TARTS. Well, I enjoyed the tart from Paddington more. They were both good but the custard in that was not as smooth and spiced and Paddington. The coconut tart is very moist and has a balanced sweetness. There is not really much of a coconut taste but you can feel the coconut flakes that are used, so yes there is coconut but it just is not strong. The texture is also a bit chewy, not what I expected but enjoyable nonetheless. Give this place a try and eat right way! Best when fresh, if you lucky :) ”

“ Heard about the legendary Portuguese chicken of St Lawrence Market for a while, so when I finally came for a visit, I just had to try it. The proprietor was gracious and generous with his recommendation. I decided to order quarter chicken dark meat to go, with rice and potatoes. Finally, two Portuguese tarts would round up the order. Frankly, the chicken looked a bit dry to me, so I was bracing myself for disappointment. However, it took one bite to change my mind. The chicken was tender and juicy, with good flavour on their own. The proprietor highly recommended eating the chicken with the sauce that came with it, and I heartily agree; the sauce added a little kick to the dish, and made the meat more moist and pleasant. I separated the sauce because I wanted to eat it with my dogs, but next time I would let the proprietor slather the sauce all over the chicken while serving. I have mixed feelings about the tart, but for Portuguese egg tarts outside Portugal, it's not bad. I did come close to end of day, and the tarts may have been sitting outside all day, but they are good complement to the Portuguese chicken dish. ”

“ I’ve had their custard tarts maybe too many times now. I can attest they are always warm and crunchy. The dough is so flaky and it’s always a treat to go and say hello to such nice people. ”

“ I ordered the half chicken with rice and potatoes and 2 of the pastels. The chicken was really flavorful and was very tender. I was able to eat it with very little effort from my fork and knife. The price is great for what you get! The pastels were great and were very comparable to the ones I’ve had in Lisbon. Overall this is an amazing spot that you shouldn’t miss in the market! ”

“ Popular choice in St Lawrence market. Crunchy and delicious. $1.85 per tart! 9.95 for 6! Good deal. ”

“ Decided to take a trip to the St Lawrence Market today and stumbled upon the famed Churrasco’s! The chicken was fall off the bone tender and well seasoned leaving me wishing for more and the egg tart was delectable! Got the 1/4 chicken with rice and it hit the spot. Check them out! ”

“ I really liked this place. The Portuguese custard tarts were done right unlike Eve’s Temptations in the basement. These were fresh, the custard in the middle was smooth and melted right in my mouth. I regret not buying like a dozen of these. Cost of one was very cheap. Service was attentive and friendly. You just walk up, order, and then find a seat somewhere in the market. There was no line when I ordered and that was on a Saturday morning. ”

“ I stopped here simply to get their Portuguese Custard tarts- delicious and affordable! The entire was amazing- flaky and crunchy pastry with a super soft and creamy custard. The custard has a perfect level of sweetness which makes this a must try tart. The service was fast and super friendly- amidst them what seemed like a very busy morning. Really worth a try! ”
