Les équipes de Joe Beef et de Maison publique s’unissent sur un nouveau projet, McKiernan - Traiteur Luncheonette Rôtisserie. Installé au deuxième étage du Complexe Dompark, un immeuble industriel situé le long du canal Lachine
Les avis sur McKiernan Rôtisserie convergent vers une expérience globalement très positive, avec une nourriture savoureuse et généreuse, notamment le poulet rôti et sa sauce remarquable, des choux de Bruxelles délicieux et des donuts emblématiques; le menu offre aussi des plats comme les ribs et le schnitzel qui séduisent, et l ambiance chaleureuse et lumineuse, façon industriel cosy, est idéale pour les repas entre amis, en famille ou en grandes tablées. Le service est généralement apprécié pour sa gentillesse et son efficacité, bien que certaines visites aient été marquées par des retards et une continuité du personnel lors des soirs très chargés; les portions et le rapport qualité-prix font l’objet de réserves chez certains clients, et le niveau sonore peut être élevé. Le brunch est souvent salué et le stationnement est perçu comme accessible dans l’ensemble. En résumé, McKiernan est une adresse majeure pour une cuisine de rôtisserie bien exécutée et conviviale, avec des plats et des desserts qui restent en mémoire, et des points d attention liés à l’affluence et à quelques choix de menu.
We've been to McKiernan several times over the last few years. Every time was an amazing experience from start to finish. This time however was anything but, & unfortunately soured our outlook on this restaurant for good.
After making reservations we were seated without any wait & took some time looking at the menu. First, we ordered a Burrata as a starter. My partner ordered Ribs. The waitress informed us it's just a plate of ribs for $31, & if we wanted any kind of side it would be an additional $7 at the very least. Weird to separate it like that but okay. She decides on the fries to go with it. I then ordered the Nordic Shrimp Scampi & Linguini.
After a little while enjoying our cocktails our meals arrive, with no Burrata as a starter. I ask about it & turns out the waitress forgot to put it in.. alright we all make mistakes. I ask them to send it out anyway & we'll eat it with everything. Now on to the meals. The ribs were plentiful & tasty, but the fries overbaked & under-seasoned. Nordic Shrimp Scampi, I take one look at the shrimp & just laugh. They are literally the size of my fingernail. The shrimps themselves weren't too fresh either, as if bought in a freezer bag from IGA. The pasta was again under-seasoned & had a pool of oil at the bottom of the bowl. The Burrata that finally arrived was another letdown. They used to serve it with tomatoes & pesto, but now replaced that with a pretentious slice of pear & salad dressing that overpowers the taste entirely. At least the cheese itself was fresh.
Time for dessert. I order a maple donut & my partner orders a brownie. Server asks if she wants ice cream with the brownie & my partner agrees. Everything arrives & my donut tastes EXACTLY like Tim Hortons. No exaggeration. Every donut place has their own distinct flavour & I KNOW what a Tim Hortons maple donut tastes like as it's been my go-to donut there for years. Brownie was nice & rich with the ice cream to cut the sweetness. Very good. Until we saw on the bill the ice cream was an extra $3 for one small scoop! The waitress didn't tell us that part when she asked if we wanted it.
& that's how our night ended. Utterly disappointed with not only the food, but the way they're doing business. It was such a shock to us all the upselling they're doing now. I've never seen it to that extent at any other restaurant & it was so sad to see them do it here. & without even telling us at one point on top of that. We knew from experience this restaurant was more on the expensive side, which we're perfectly fine with, but why make the customer pay extra for sides that should be accompanying the plate from the get-go? Or for one small scoop of ice cream on the brownie when it should already be there? We used to love this restaurant. Now, that has changed entirely & we won't be going back.
We just walked in on Easter Sunday & this restaurant did not disappoint! The food, the service, the vibe - all were amazing! I definitely recommend & will be coming back!
love love love it here! brittainy & maeve were absolutely amazing! their service was phenomenal, maeve recommended an amazing wine, & dessert was to die for! can't wait to come back!

Our party of four visited on a Sunday evening. There was ample parking available at the front, despite signage indicating potential towing; after confirming with the hostess, we were assured that parking on the opposite side was acceptable. We were seated by the window, providing a pleasant view of the spacious dining area. The restaurant attracted numerous families with children, resulting in a lively atmosphere which became quieter around 7:30 pm.
The cocktails were excellent. We ordered four appetizers; three arrived promptly, but we needed to remind the server about the fourth, which was delivered five minutes later along with our main courses. Although not ideal, the food itself was enjoyable. Our selections included prime rib, rotisserie chicken, & schnitzel, all prepared well. We also ordered a bottle of red wine for the main course, but it remained unopened on the counter near our table for approximately twenty minutes before we had to flag down our waiter.
While the staff provided friendly service, it appeared that servers were assigned too many tables, resulting in an inconsistent pace & several overlooked items. The team addressed this by offering a complimentary dessert to share among our group.
Overall a nice evening with good food but chaotic service
I went for a solo lunch, had great service Dimitri made me feel most welcome. The food was great diablo chicken sandwich is a solid 9/10 & you can't miss the fries! Can't wait to go back!

Nourriture toujours excellente. Très bel endroit pour manger en bonne compagnie. Beaucoup de places assises, mais je crois qu'il est mieux de faire une réservation. J'y suis déjà allée pour le dîner aussi & c'était le meilleur poulet, ainsi que les meilleures frites que j'avais mangé de ma vie! 👌🏻💯
McKiernan has been & continues to be an absolutely spectacular dinner destination. The large open space with a beautiful sunlight creates an atmosphere that is unique & welcoming. The staff is always top-notch. Attentive, professional, & wonderful. Tonight they're eight of us we had a prefix dinner. That was spectacular & delicious. Everybody had the best possible time the place is called. The people are great. The food is fantastic. This is highly recommended.
Real cool decor, huge room, fairly priced, food is delicious yet somehow leaves you with a'this is a bit mundane' feeling. Service feels like they are constantly under toxic management pressure, lacking in warmth & friendliness, stressed & not vibing, front of house shouldn't be running front & back with a concerned stern face for hours. Petty but 4$ coffee refills with no sugar or milk, sure it's in a nice cup but come on. Also, the reservation/cancellation policy can duck right off (re: see above, toxic management)
Nous y étions pour un anniversaire. La nourriture était très bonne. Nous avions un serveur(ou suiteur) qui était très gentil mais la serveuse était assez bête. De plus, nous avons ressentis un malaise lorsque nous avons commandé des digestifs, ils nous ont dirre que le bar était fermé puis qu'ils avaient réouvert pour nous comme si nous derangions. Finalement, les 15 dernières minutes alors que nous attendions notre facture ils ont mit la même chanson on-repeat & lorsqu'on a demandé de la changer ils ont dit'non c'est la musique pour le close' comme s'ils nous pressaient de partir....
*le serveur mexicain était extrêmement gentil & nous l'aimons. Te amo mucho

I came to this restaurant looking for an amazing experience because that's what all the reviews said however, I was extremely underwhelmed because the service was subpar. Our server might have had too many tables to work at the same time because the first fact the food that we got came cold.
I walked over to the manager, & I asked for a little bit more attention & service & got attitude instead of acknowledgment
The level of entitlement these people have for the mediocre food that they put out is amusing
Donuts were fire tho
Hope to come back soon with a much better experience
