It's Mexican Hat Dance week!

It's Mexican week at McGill's and we have a new dish to offer you.  Our feature this week will be the Mexican carnitas.  I'm keen to try it.  I'm sure Chef and his team have done an awesome job with it. 

We're bringing you all our regular items, including three appetizers and three desserts, but it's always refreshing and exciting when another dish is introduced to the menu.  And just to tempt you to come in, here's our Mexican fried ice cream.  This is an extremely popular dessert.  Don't you think it's time you came in to try it? 

McGill's is open Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings from 5.00pm until 8.00pm.  Always freshly prepared, our cuisine will have you coming back for more and eagerly anticipating Mexican week each time it rolls around.  Enjoy fine dining in a relaxed and intimate atmosphere.  Give us a call on (902) 681-3225 and let us reserve a table for you.  We are located at 18 Kentucky Court, New Minas. We'd love to have you join us.

Come and enjoy yourself!  ¡Pásatelo bien!

Here is what we have to offer you this week:
