| - Location: On St. Viateur, west of the main. Off the top of my head, the closest subway is probably Laurier (check the map) - street parking available, but metered. Watch out for those residential zones.
The place: Tiny. Get there early or make a reservation. In terms of its overall look and feel, the rotisserie is average and nothing to write home about.
The food: My personal opinion is that Mile End is mediocre. I wasn't blown away by the chicken - I found it a little tough and there wasn't any moistness to it. In terms of flavour, meh - nothing special. There was nothing that stood out or made my taste buds quiver with excitement. Instead of fries, I had the rice (I know, who does that?). Wow. The rice was white - that's it, that's all. No veggies, no chicken broth and zero flavour. Would not repeat that experience. The bread and salad that are great though. The salad was fresh and crispy and the bread was soft and tasty.
Service: Average to mediocre. When we asked if we could sit at another table (this was before we even sat down at the original table), the waiter gave my friend this look then literally threw the menus onto the new table. Really buddy? The table was right behind you - it's not like you had to walk a mile to reach it. This same waiter proceed to rub his arse against my chair all night, which wasn't annoying at all. Service is also very slow.
Price point: I think a breast and side is about $12.
