Hola! Join me in a Mexican fiesta!

Deep Fried Ice Cream
Time to don those sombreros once again and welcome Mexican week.  With three appetizers, three mains and three desserts, deciding what to have will be the most difficult part of your evening.  Just make sure you save room for dessert.  Doesn't the deep fried ice cream look amazing!  If you haven't tried this yet, you really have to.  But not to be left behind are the Mexican Churros.  I guess it depends on exactly how much room you have left for dessert which one you have.

The weather is perfect for enjoying your dinner on the patio with a few drinks.  It's the best way to pass a summer's evening with family or friends.  Remember McGill's has an excellent wine list, Garrison beer on tap as well as domestic and imported beers.  Make sure you ask your server about our cocktails.  And finish off your meal with a specialty coffee. 

Mexican Churros
McGill's is open Tuesday through Saturday evenings from 5.00pm until 8.00pm, with our rotating theme menus being offered Thursday, Friday and Saturday evenings.  Stop by Tuesday and Wednesday evenings for wing nights.    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!
