Review Summary

Serrano Bar-B-Q is widely recognized as a beloved Mile End institution, celebrated for its authentic, Peruvian-style rotisserie chicken and generous sandwiches featuring tender pork and sausage. Many patrons praise the restaurant for its consistent quality, affordable pricing, and the convenience of taxes being included, often highlighting the delicious potatoes and the flavorful, juicy meat as standout elements. While the venue is primarily a no-frills, takeout-focused counter spot with limited seating, its welcoming atmosphere and long-standing reputation as a neighborhood staple make it a go-to for locals. Despite occasional reports of inconsistent food quality or service experiences, most visitors view it as a must-visit destination for an unpretentious, high-quality meal in Montreal.

Love this place. Been coming for years. Got a whole chicken for dinner. Although it was fall off the bone, it was surprisingly dry & quite salty. It's not usually dry, maybe it was a bad day. The potatoes were bang on though! (Tip: get the potatoes at dinner time; at lunch I find that they hadn't had the time to soak up the chicken goodness & get all soft). I really appreciate that they don't ask for tip at the debit terminal. I respect that.

Service by the two young ladies is amazing! The hard part of chicken is to keep it moist & juicy! Mine was dry! Cuando c seca mejor dejarlo de lado!

Le sandwich au poulet du Serrano est une carte cachée de Montréal. Seul les locaux savent vraiment le goût de ce très bon poulet. Si les touristes arrivent.... Hahaha!!! Ce ne sera plus un secret pour personne. Excellent établissement.

I've been coming here for two decades, sadly today might have been the last time. The quality & service has gone down steadily for the last year or so. If you enjoy a mouthful of cartilage, bones, & fat with every other bite then this is the perfect chicken sandwich for you.
