We went as a big group, around 18 people. The food was excellent! My favorite dish were the Brussels sprouts. The roast chicken itself was amazing but I'm not a huge fan of mushrooms so the sauce provided wasn't my jam but still good! I also really liked the ribs. The dessert course slightly disappointed me, I was expecting more of a pouding chômeur type dessert but I liked the variety offered & they were still good (various donuts, cookie & brownies) Overall it was worth the money.
The location itself is well decorated & very spacious. It's an amazing place for a large group.
Unfortunately I only have pictures of the appetizers
Their brussel sprouts dish is the absolute best; it's a must try. I also love their pasta & rotisserie chicken. The sauce on the rotisserie chicken is just perfect.
However, I am not a big fan of their ribs: the flavors were a bit underwhelming.
We had the chicken, schnitzel, a side salad & roasted potatoes. The potatoes were golden & lathered in olive oil which was wonderful. The salad was fresh & the schnitzel crispy with a tangy sauce. The chicken was juicy but the gravy was way too salty for my liking.
The key lime pie we ordered for dessert however was a perfect way to finish the meal & made up for the extra salt with the chicken.
Always a good place to share a meal. Their chicken & the sauce that goes with it are delicious, it was the best thing we ate.
The place is spacious so you don't feel too close to others, very nice atmosphere.
Service was impeccable.
Poulet rôti avec sauce, aubergine avec sauce rosé, choux de Bruxelles avec amandes & sauce au fromage bleu
Tout est bon , bien servi, belle ambiance!!!
Parait 👍
I really love this spot for dinner. It's got this great, bustling energy without being too loud, making it perfect for a date night. You should definitely try to make a reservation ahead of time if you can.
At first glance, the menu can look a little all over the place, but once the food starts coming out it all makes sense. The roasted chicken is absolutely fantastic, chicken is cooked perfectly & the sauce is so good. The pasta dishes are also a great option with good portion sizes.
For sides, do yourself a favor & get the deviled brussel sprouts. They are seriously delicious & awesome for sharing. You might want to skip the fries, though. They can be a little hit or miss, sometimes coming out a bit overcooked & dry.
A quick tip for dessert: if you're eyeing the donuts, ask your server to set some aside when you first order your meal. They sell out super fast!
A Few Thoughts on Brunch:
I'm probably in the minority here, but the famous brunch double down just isn't for me. I don't get the hype. The hash browns feel both dry & oily at the same time, almost like they were pre-made & then just flash-fried to order. It's not a dealbreaker, but I'd recommend trying something else instead.
As for the service, it was only a mixed bag the last time I went. The hosts at the front were incredible-super helpful & welcoming. But our waitress seemed a little checked out. We all have off days, but it was weird to see her totally happy & chill with other tables but just meh/cold with us. She did perk up when I went to pay with cash, which I found kind of strange.
Overall, I'd still highly recommend this place for a great dinner out.
Update: went back recently, food & service was top notch, 5 stars all around.
The chicken breast sauce was good, the chicken itself was a bit dry honestly.
the'12$' cucumbers with barely any feta in it was very disappointing , I was expecting a salad or something unique/creative. It was literally just cucumbers with a bit of shredded feta…
Stopped by this spot in Lachine because it looked really cute on the inside - definitely a cozy place if you're just looking to grab a drink or a beer after hanging out in the area. Unfortunately, the food really didn't live up to expectations.
The highlights: the Parker House rolls were excellent - soft, buttery, garlicky perfection. Fries were also solid, crispy & well-seasoned. The horseradish sauce wasn't for me (but that's more about preference, so if you like horseradish you might enjoy it).
Everything else was disappointing. The ribs had a tasty Korean-inspired sweet-savory sauce, but the actual ribs were almost entirely fat with barely any meat - I've never had ribs like that before. The rigatoni pasta was cooked properly, but the sauce was bland & lacked depth, leaving the dish flat overall.
It was one of those meals that just felt very'mid' all around, which is frustrating when there are so many better options in Montreal. Maybe it was just an off night, but personally I won't be coming back. The food execution needs serious work if they want to match the nice vibe of the space.
I had dinner at McKiernan & it was a solid experience. Not mind-blowing, but definitely enjoyable. The ambiance was warm & inviting, chill but still nicely put together, the kind of place you can relax in.
We started with the Burrata à la Passata & the tomato sauce absolutely stole the show. It was insanely good, super rich & flavorful. The kravlax trout with deviled egg was an interesting combo, delicate & fresh, though not as memorable as the burrata.
The Schnitzel Holstein was satisfying & well-executed. Crispy, topped with a fried egg, & very comforting overall. Nothing revolutionary, but it hit the spot.
The real highlight for me was the cheesecake. Hands down one of the best I've ever had-super creamy, smooth, & just sweet enough without being heavy.
Overall, McKiernan served up a very good meal with some standout moments. I'd go back, especially for that tomato sauce & the cheesecake.
This is probably my 10th visit to McKiernan, & it's about time I updated my review. This spot never misses. The schnitzel with eggs & rich bomba sauce was killer. The 16oz prime rib? Flawless. The fusilli with beef ragu & white wine sauce was pure comfort food, elevated. We also had the burrata with peaches & beets, creamy, sweet, earthy, absolutely on point. Shoutout to our waiter Dimitri: hilarious, sharp, & professional. It still amazes me how this second floor gem in the middle of nowhere keeps filling up. McKiernan just delivers, every single time.
Been here twice already within 3 weeks, stellar service, great food & really nice ambiance.
Food is amazing & simple, you know a place is good when the menu is short & not several pages long. I gotta recommend the deviled brussel sprouts, nice crisp & bitter taste with the sauce. Their dessert are very nice & not overly sweet.
Service is impeccable, staff is very attentive & change your plate throughout the different stage of the meal if need to be.
Nous sommes allés bruncher & avons pris un mélange de plats menu brunch & menu régulier. En général ce sont des plats savoureux. Le poulet était très tendre avec une sauce succulente. Petite mention spéciale pour les beignets, potentiellement les meilleurs en ville.
OMG ce resto est à couper le souffle tellement tout est bon ainsi que l'acceuil & le service est vraiment superbe la sauce aux champignons était juste wowwwww
The best service I have ever received. The waitresses were friendly, the atmosphere very nice, I loved the design of the restaurant & the food was perfect. The sauce of the chicken is amazing!
Great experience, great food. Staff is amazing & helpful. Really loved the pasta was definitely my favorite rose sauce, Brussels sprouts too was phenomenal. Loved the glazed donuts too. All the plates are so appetizing & delicious
The owner is smart & generous to invest on staffing. As soon as you empty the plate, there is either a bus-boy/girl or waiter/waitress removing the plate. *The only tiny detail the bus-boy/girl need to pay attention is to ask customers if we still need utensils on the plate. If you decide to take away our utensils, please offer to give us a new set. Thank you. Our waiter is friendly, good in explaining the menu, great presence without pressure. Food is above average. Price is reasonable. *Homemade vanilla ice-cream is Blend. *Both Homemade donuts are very good. *Homemade rosée sauce is very good. Great distance between tables, very roomy. Vintage Wooden floor compliments well with the overall decoration. It was a great experience overall.
Came here for dinner & had a fantastic meal! We got the Moscow mule & Bloody Caesar for drinks. Started the meal with a tomato salad from their daily specials & the zesty Italian beef tartare. The tomato salad had pine nuts, basil & a delightful dressing. The beef tartare was served with endive & so delicious! We got the honey garlic spare ribs, rotisserie chicken Alexandre & fries to share. The spare ribs were so tasty - sweet & sticky. The rotisserie chicken was so good!! The sauce was so savoury - would highly recommend the rotisserie chicken & the beef tartare! The fries were shoe string cut, nicely seasoned & came with a Dijonaise. The staff were all extremely attentive & service was amazing! The restaurant space is so open & spacious. It has a great vibe. The string lights were a nice touch. They have plants everywhere - I loved it all! They also have a foosball table near the bathrooms & people were actually playing. Would highly recommend!
Service was very slow. They had a bunch of people working but it seemed like there were only 2-3 people working & it wasn't even busy (around 4-5 pm on a thursday). The only thing that came out fast was the food, which is maybe why the quality was subpar. I had the burrata & Parker house rolls with herb butter. Burrata was fine, the bread was basically just 4 brioche buns that seemed like it was store bought with butter poured on top. My mom had the prime rib, the sauce was too sweet & it was so tough & hard to eat. We accidentally spilled some water on the table, not one waiter noticed, & when we called, he wiped it & left the wet napkins on the table. Then after we ate we asked someone for the bill, I was waiting for about 10 mins. She said she was going to get the bill but she didn't. I had to ask our original waiter for a the bill & it took him 10 mins to get the receipt & another 10 mins to get the machine. & there was less than 5 tables in the whole restaurant!!!! Basically, its an overpriced & overrated place. Not worth going. I regret coming to this restaurant.
Beau café/rotisserie au décor intéressant évoquant les sports nautiques toutefois ce que j'ai grignoté me laisse sur ma faim ; croquettes de poulet qui relèvent plus de la boulette de viande hachée trop finement. Résultat c'est "mushy", mou & peu savoureux. Bonnes frites mais la sauce dijonnaise est banale. service ok mais pas très souriant en creux d'après-midi ...
