Food was ok, schnitzel was a 1/10 dry & flavourless, the salad was amazing! Service was good & the overall space & decor was really nice! Wont be back, too many options in montreal to waste your money here, sorry!

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.

Je trouve dommage qu'aujourd'hui ça coute 42$ pour deux shnitzel quand il y a peu de temps on pouvait commander un « REPAS » schnitzel qui contenait 5 schnitzel pour environ 30$.

Shrinkflation at it's best!

Premium rotisserie/schnitzel spot that is still very reasonably priced for the quality. Order out, date night, large groups, they do it all & they do it extremely well.

Probably the best boston cream donuts in Montreal!

It was my third time eating at this restaurant & the other two times were great. I haven't been back since 2024 but last night the schnitzel was so dry & I ordered fries with my meal that took so long to arrive that my schnitzel was basically finished by the time the fries arrived. & the fries were COLD 🥲. I would have said something but the waiter never checked on me. Anyway so sad because I really liked this place! The hostess was really nice & the interior is beautiful but overall I was pretty disappointed 😔.

If you haven't tried their brunch, RUN don't walk. It was my first time trying it & they did not disappoint! Servers are sooo friendly & fast. We tried the croque madame & the schnitzel sandwich + extra hashbrowns. Everything was sooo delicious! Just perfect portions & very tasty. We also got lattes, they were great! To top it off we ordered 2 donuts: dulce de leche & maple! Exquisite. Will definitely come back to try other items, the place has big windows that light the whole restaurant. The vibes are super nice.

The staff is friendly & offer great service, & really enjoyed the atmosphere. The meal is a bit limited, but the foods are high quality & taste very good. The best place to eat Brussels Sprouts & Schnitzel.

Delicious, affordable, & healthy are an impossible trinity. No matter what you choose, you can only satisfy two of these criteria. But this restaurant defies that rule. I loves the large arched windows. The sunset creates a European-style romance.

The schnitzel is fantastic, thinly fried & crispy. Served with lemon slices & a chopped chili & olive ,it's a savory & flavorful dish that cuts through the greasiness. It brings back memories of my time in Austria.

The Alexander's roast chicken is also a standout.

There's ample parking outside the restaurant, which is absolutely convenient.

Schnitzel sandwich was good though I felt it was plain & might benefit from more garnish. Donuts were delicious.

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.

This is a perfect brunch/lunch/dinner spot! Relaxed but beautiful space, great for large groups & sharing! It's usually quite busy but thankfully they take reservations, so reserve in advance. The food is outstanding. The brunch menu is fantastic, & super cheap for the quality of food you receive! I've been here a few times now & every time I've been blown away. A little hard to get to using public transit, but worth the trek! (Honorable mention for the schnitzel, you must try it!)

To say I'm impressed with this place is an understatement!!! Have been 3 times now & each time as exquisite as the last. Yesterday we had the breakfast schnitzel, the chicken salad sandwich special, the hash browns, coffee & a donut & holyyy. Absolutely fantastic. The service is great there, the coffee is strong, the interior is beautiful with a ton of natural light & the high ceilings are great. Over 10/10 breakfast spot & I'm not sure I'll ever come to Montreal again without going here for brunch before we leave

Came for the schnitzel, coming back for the brussels sprouts. It is the apex of side dishes. I almost died, like in a good way.

Great great food. We took a lot of things on the menu. I strongly recommend the rotisserie chicken, the schnitzel, the brussel sprouts, the salad with pumpkin seads & the pasta with zucchini. All of those were fabulous! French fries were dry & uninteresting. The eggplants were lacking salt & spices. The drinks were ok nothing more to my taste. The restaurant looks very cool, it's friendly & trendy. The staff is very nice & kind. I would go back.

This was our first time visiting Montreal & we were so happy to have made it into McKiernan. Everything about our dining experience was perfect - the stunning & super welcoming space (we LOVED the open floor concept, loads of natural light, thoughtfully curated art/decor/plants, etc), the exceptionally friendly & knowledgable staff (a huge shoutout to Alex - one of the best servers I've ever had - & Rob for their top notch service), &, of course, the variety of incredible dishes we enjoyed (the cucumber/green goddess/ricotta salata special, schnitzel bomba, & blueberry/cheesecake-filled donut were the highlights of the meal). If you're looking for a casual yet elevated dining experience for a date, family dinner, or group outing, McKiernan should be at the top of your list. Looking forward to coming back to dine with y'all soon!

Food was absolutely delicious! We ordered the « Country Salad », « Devilled Brussels Sprouts », « Schnitzel bomba », « Spicy Rigatoni Rose » & the « Béchamel Asparagus » from their daily specials. Every dish had so much flavour & depth. I would absolutely come back & re-order all of the items we tried. The place is huge, you don't feel overcrowded. It's definitely a great spot to host big groups!
