Grab your sombreros and head to McGill's!

The Mexican theme has become just as popular as the Italian one here at McGill's, so I hope we will see you this week.  This is the most difficult menu for me to pick from as I love all the appetizers, mains and desserts.  Perhaps the weather will cheer up and you could enjoy your meal on the patio. 

Beef Tacos

Our beef tacos are sure to hit the spot for even the hungriest person.  They taste even better than they look!  I'm lucky if I can get through one of them.  And if I tried to eat both of them, I'd never have room for dessert.  Speaking of dessert, you need to try the fried ice cream at least once.  I bet you won't stop at once though.  Definitely a crowd-pleaser and just plain fun!  If I actually have room for dessert, I enjoy the crème brûlée.  It has just the right amount of heat and sweetness to end the meal perfectly.

Mexican Fried Ice Cream



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.  Or if the weather cooperates, enjoy dinner and drinks on our patio.  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!
