Le Milsa specializes in the authentic rodizio style of service where professional passadores circulate the room to carve premium cuts of beef, lamb, pork, and chicken directly onto the plate. This Brazilian steakhouse concept emphasizes a continuous flow of grilled proteins seasoned with traditional sea salt to highlight the natural flavors of the meat. A substantial salad bar complements the main service, featuring a vast assortment of fresh vegetables, cold salads, cured meats, and hot side dishes designed to balance the richness of the charcoal-grilled selections. The dining space incorporates a vibrant aesthetic that facilitates the rhythmic delivery of skewers. Patrons utilize a double-sided disc system to control the frequency of service, ensuring the experience moves at a preferred pace. This meat-centric culinary approach maintains a focus on high-volume, quality-driven production within a lively and energetic setting.
Le Milsa is frequently praised for its lively atmosphere, festive Brazilian dance performances, and high-quality grilled meats served in a rodizio style. Many visitors highlight the exceptionally friendly and professional service, often noting that staff members are attentive, welcoming, and contribute significantly to a memorable dining experience. While most patrons thoroughly enjoy the variety of meats, such as the tender lamb and popular pineapple dessert, opinions on food quality and pricing vary, with some guests finding the experience expensive or noting that specific dishes occasionally fall short of expectations. The restaurant is widely considered a great destination for group outings, birthdays, and celebrations, though some guests suggest that the music volume can be quite loud and that reservations are important to ensure a smooth visit.
Came on a weekday. Reserved at least a week in advance, we went their Montreal restaurant of Le Milsa before the covid & it was very good. We havent been going for quite some time so naturally we were excited & much looking forward to it. We arrived on time for our reservation, got seated right away. But we were surprised to see the restaurant had maybe no more than 12 people in the entire restaurant at supper time…i guess it's understandable since it's still close to 100$ per person after taxes & tips. On weekend it costs $5 more same menu. Since the restaurant was not busy, I see they have just 1 waiter, & that waiter is also a bartender & does the hostess job of getting customers seated as well.
Once they show us our table, for 10-15 minutes, we did not get even a glass of water. & i see they bring food & heat to everyone else usually when they are seated (as some customers arrived after us, but got water, appetizers, salad, fries, rice, veggies right away, while the grillmaster circles to one table at a time).. but for our table, we didn't get water, or anything until i had to waive & ask the waiter for it.
Then, i was looking at their menu on the pdf of the restaurant website & see we get be able to get to try all the meat, garlic bread, & shrimps… so we were excited.
But we received the salad, rice, fries & water after only 15 minutes & it seems like they start the meat round with offering garlic bread. Ok
Just for your info, dear reader, i would strongly suggest you try all the meat since you are here anyway for the brazilian grill, right? (Go to their website & check the menu to see all the meat & dishes you are supposed to receive) & when they pass by & ask you if you want the meat they are offering you… even if your plate is full from other meats, i suggest you take a slice or two of each one they offer to you, because you may think they would come back & ask you the same meat again, but they may or may not. It seems to me they dont, unless you explicitly ask the server to tell the grill-master to bring back the type of meat you want.
I can start by telling you now that of all of the meat they served, the lamb is the most tender & juicy & the best, the turkey & bacon i would say the second. & the third would be the shrimps. I tell you now, the shrimps & then the pineapple they will offer to you last. So i suggest you either ask them in the beginning if you want the shrimps in the beginning or leave room for it.
The bavette de boeuf is pretty good too. Everything else is dry, or very dry or too dry & too salty. Even the much anticipated filet mignon.
Their alcohol is all 18 to over 20$ per drink & expensive as hell. Quite honestly, i would much rather go to a korean grill close by than this restaurant again… food is so so at best. Service as well. & extremely expensive at 69$ weekdays & 74$ weekend, plus taxes & tips for dried meat that is not even truly a buffet since you have to wait for the meat to be served at their choice of timing. & shrimps is at the very end when you are full, though i asked the server for it in the beginning.. it's just not worth it. Quite Honestly.
Their booze is crazy expensive too. Usually a smart business owner would make booze more affordable to encourage more people to come… not super expensive & the stock of booze stays in the restaurant with a slow turnover.
Anyway, i cannot say i would recommend it even though i used to be a big fan of this place.
Great barbecue!
I live in Canada & went today with my Brazilian family who came to visit. It's a great place - everyone was very attentive, the owner was super friendly, & the food was absolutely spectacular! I was really impressed. Highly recommended!
An extraordinary experience. The food is excellent & the service impeccable (thanks a million Mr Ayoub & Mr Moa). The show with the Brazilian dancers is exceptional. I totally recommend the place. I have been coming again & again myself.
They have 2 services on Saturday, one at 5 pm & again at 8 pm, both under reservation only. They offer a Brazilian show while dining. As for the dining part, they debut with white meats, then brown, if you are looking to eat lamb & exclusive cuts like filet mignon they are limited & offered practically at the end when they stuffed you. Unfortunately, I was waiting all evening for the lamb by the time they got to our table it was the end of the servings stick, & when I asked for more, they said they had none. The qte for that night was done, it is very difficult to believe, giving it's an all you can eat meat. For that simple reason I give it 3 🌟
The service started out slowly since they had to clean up before the 8:00 reservations, but it quickly picked up with the entrees, main course & the overall experience of a Brazilian all you can eat could honestly not be better. Ask for for Mohammed as a server he did very well. Highly recommend! 👍
Food is out of this world. AMAZING!!!! A real Brazilian rodizio (churrasqueria). The service & all staff is so friendly. Mariana is an excellent host. Also, we enjoyed a Samba show. A piece of Brazil carnaval in Montréal
I went to Laval last Saturday night at 8. It was full & very noisy. Service very slow & we had to ask for lamb 4 times before we got it. Food was just ok. The "samba" show wasn't samba. Prices exorbitant A poor attempt to recreate a Brazilian experience. Never again.
