A new restaurant opened recently in the West Island, meaning I had to try it out, and quick. I'm always looking for something new and good, close to home. Montreal is known for its amazing food, but unfortunately in the West Island, there really isn't that much. Le Milsa, with 4 locations and a fifth one opening soon, I was hoping that this new expansion wasn't going to hurt the food that I heard was so great at the Bishop location. This is a Brazilian rotisserie called "Churrascaria" that comes from the word "Churrasco"which means a restaurant that serves grilled meat on skewers(most of the time all you can eat); with waiters walking around slicing the meat on clients plates.

This particular location is enormous, split in two sections with the bar in the middle, has midway through the night a belly dancer and a male dancer. The music turns up loud, the lights dim and the disco balls light up. There are 3 different sections on the menu ; the turnstile,  the whole cornish hen grilled on charcoal and the smoked salmon grilled on charcoal. I choose the turnstile(29.95), which is 10 different types of meat(all you can eat), some of the notable meats were the pork sausages, filet mignon, lamb and strip loin. The meats were all cooked medium rare so they were all juicy and tender, but I found that they lacked a little bit of flavor. I assume the meats are not top quality which is the reason why they're not as delicious as they could be.

A mediocre at best salad was served with the meal, so were bland sweet potatoes, a tasty rice and delicious sauteed mushrooms. For dessert there is the choice of grilled pineapple covered in cinnamon and sugar or vanilla ice cream. I opted for the pineapple and was a little disappointed by the overly bitter taste. The wine list is pretty decent for this type of restaurant but are priced a little bit on the high side.

At the end, I had a nice time, with a good 20 minutes of belly dancing and a male doing some type of karate dance.  The food was average at best, with prices too high to match, I unfortunately cannot see myself returning here.
