Dans l'ensemble, Serrano Bar-B-Q apparaît comme une adresse ancienne et sans chichis, prisée pour ses sandwichs au poulet rôti à la peruvienne et ses portions généreuses. Le sandwich au poulet est décrit comme juteux, bien assaisonné et équilibré par une sauce maison, avec un pain moelleux et une croûte agréable, tandis que les options au porc et à la saucisse ainsi que les pommes de terre font aussi l'objet de compliments. De nombreux avis le présentent comme l'un des meilleurs sandos au poulet du quartier et le rapport qualité-prix reste bon malgré une hausse de prix selon certains. Quelques commentaires évoquent une diminution de la qualité et du service au cours de la dernière année, des heures peu pratiques et des expériences au comptoir parfois froides, avec une facilité de manger sur place limitée lorsque la chaleur est importante. Dans l'ensemble, l'accent mis sur des sandwichs simples et réconfortants, la praticité à emporter et une clientèle fidèle font de Serrano Bar-B-Q une référence pour les amateurs de poulet à Mile End, même si les attentes peuvent varier.
A true Mile End gem! Serrano Bar-B-Q has been doing one thing exceptionally well for over 40 years, & our visit made it obvious why locals love this place.
The chicken & pork sandwiches were incredible. The rotisserie chicken sandwich is everything it's hyped to be. Juicy, perfectly seasoned, & served on a soft round Portuguese bun that soaks up all that flavor. The crispy pork sandwich was just as good, tender with those crackly edges that make it irresistible. Simple, unpretentious, & honestly some of the best sandwiches in Montreal. Pro tip: ask them to add a ladle of the chicken broth for extra juiciness…total game changer.
It's a tiny counter spot, easy to walk right past, but that's part of the charm. The staff are warm & welcoming, the prices are very fair, & the whole experience feels like a neighbourhood classic that's earned its reputation honestly.
If you're hunting for the best chicken sandwich in Montreal or a great cheap eats spot in Mile End, Serrano Bar-B-Q is a must visit. Five stars, no hesitation, I'll be back.
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.
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.
The best sandwich of your life! they serve chicken OR pork sandwiches. They prepare it like - pollo a la barbacoa - Peruvian style. A must try in the Mile end.
The bread was really good ,soft inside, a nice crust outside, & it felt homemade (which is always a win).
For the protein, I went all in: chicken breast, thighs, & sausage. They were well-seasoned, & the homemade sauce tied them together nicely.
The toppings, though, were pretty basic ...salad, tomatoes, coleslaw, & more of that homemade sauce. They tasted good, but nothing that really stood out. During summer it's way too hot to eat inside . Overall 8/10

Mile End is rich in chicken options, from Portuguese to southern fried to kebabs... but Serrano is a no-frills takeout homestyle classic, & with its Peruvian rub (secret family recipe!) its tender rotisserie chicken stands alone. Absolutely hands-down the best chicken in the neighbourhood. Prices have spiked in recent years, but it's still totally worth it!
This is by far the best chicken in mtl!! They've been there for over 20 years & it never changed. Beautiful family owned business. The absolute best best best ❤?
This lowkey rotisserie spot is not very polished but is standing on a 40+ year legacy that keeps customers coming. Honestly it kind of reminded me of the Portugese rotisserie spots I used to eat at in North York, Ontario with it's down-homey atmosphere. Menu is focused on sandwiches & plates featuring their expertly prepared meats. I went for the chicken breast sandwich, which was packed with a nice portion of meat. I was impressed by how nicely the sandwich held together despite it's size, it was expertly prepared. The price-to-portion ratio at this place is righteous, enough to wave off the lack of comfortable seating. Service was good too.
The chicken sandwich is delicious, filling & healthy. The workers are friendly & efficient. The only little thing is the bone left in the sandwich, but it's not a big qualm. Overall, great place!
