We were in Mississauga at dinner time, and we felt that going to a Mandarin was a good choice for us. This location on Matheson Rd wasn't too busy this evening, so we were promptly seated. Although the decor in our dining room was different than other Mandarins that we have been to, the general layout and food choices at the buffet tables were the same.
Even though the restaurant wasn't too busy, there were enough people there to keep the various dishes moving and replenished. There were a couple of dishes that were a bit overdone, but overall it was typical, good Mandarin.
Service was better than most Mandarins. Plates were cleared promptly, and water was tipped up on a regular basis.
Given that SWMBO and I have been to numerous Mandarin restaurants, it would be nice to see them introduce a few more new dishes.
I visit this location most frequently when my family decides to go to Mandarin (buffets keep everyone in the group happy and satisfied). I find this location much more clean and friendlier (especially after they renovated) and the food is always being refilled and is always fresh. Lots of variety of Chinese/Asian and some American with some special items they add during certain times of the year. Sometimes they change around their food items but it’s usually just about the same every time I go. I used to think it was fairly pricey but it’s really not considering how much you would pay at a regular restaurant for just the main course. Here you get it all from appetizers, to dessert (no drinks though) and fortune cookies at the end :)

Amazing! We felt like Kings and Queens. We were treated like royalty. Hot towels before and after dinner just pushed it it to over the edge! I could not list how many amazing things there are to eat but i'll try to list as many as i can remember starting with what i or people in my party ate. wonton soup, curry coconut chicken soup, Spicy thai mango salad, deviled eggs, antipasto, oysters, ceaser salad, veggie tempura, stir fried tofu w veggies, sushi: fried shrimp, salmon and cream cheese, sweet potato and brown rice, lemon chicken, spring roll, Sashimi: red tuna, salmon, egg, one other i don't remember, pizza, lots of different types of breads, black bean mussels (very spicy), every dessert imaginable: chocolate covered strawberries!!!, sundae bar, 7 different ice creams, 2 frozen yogurts, a waffle bar (these were so good!!!) with english cream, whipped cream and different sauces, caramel chocolate brownies (again a major fave), cheescakes, sugar free options, carrot cake, fruit, chocolate mouse cake.
A few things they have that we didn't try: a meat bar with 6 different meats they looked ok but we are not big meat eaters, a bunch of fried stuff, and french fries. Again looked ok but we don't eat too much fried although maybe my son had one fried shrimp. So for all the reviews that said everything is fried... ummm maybe there were some things that are fried (which is fine) but we can more than get stuffed and still want more without eating much, if anything fried.
We recently moved from montreal and we have def found our new go to restaurant!
Newly renovated, looks nice. However I hate how this stuff is over you every time you take a sip of water. I had my full glass of water topped up twice and I didn't even drink from it hahaha. it's a really nice atmosphere but there are way too many crying babies and children at every member and I go to go I don't know.. Good food not so good atmosphere. .the server should find a way to seat families with children in one section of the restaurant

Newly renovated. Amazing service. Very clean. Food often replenished. Favorite dish was mash, corn, sweet and sour chicken balls and steamed rice. Crab legs were great! Awesome selection of dessert. I really enjoy the cappuccino ice-cream. Came here again as a vegetarian and realized they have a lot of selection for us! Did I mention the service is amazing? They thank you for coming and say goodbye in unison for heaven's sake! That made my night. Especially because I was high... I couldn't stop laughing. I found that their hot towels which they now bring right away and even after you eat (which is awesome) smelled weird (which was weird). But honestly there is not one other flaw I can think of... Love that they give fortune cookies at the end.
update: came back recently had a not so good experience. Firstly, they changed their salad! The garden salad is now spring mix that I usually have with cranberries and strawberry balsamic vinaigrette but they didn't have any of those so it's just that fancy lettuce with basic sauces. I liked their regular green lettuce that they used to have... the only other option is cesar so that ruins the salads for me. Their white rice has some hard grains in it here and there... The garlic bread was so hard I almost broke a tooth.. Went and told them and they made me new ones but gave them too me far too early and so they were undercooked like you could still see the butter on it.. Also the ice-cream had some hard pieces. Guess it was just a hard day! Also had to remind them to bring me a Coke. They were busy though.. Maybe that explains it...
Buffets are usually not that good but Mandarin is AMAZING !!!! They have an excellent varierty of food but its still good.
Good. If you're looking for genuine chinese, this is not the place for you. However if you looking for very much westernized chinese or like fried food, this is the place for you. In my experience, the food is pretty good.
I frequently visit Mandarin for its fabulous dinner buffet that boasts a large variety located on queensway. Its a great family restaurant and if you love Chinese food and meat, this restaurant will not disappoint,the drinks are good and the service is amazing thanks to the friendly staff who are not to far away if you need them. A little advise from me would be not to fill up on the starters and main course, which is quiet a challenge but rather save a little room for the delicious desserts as well.
Absolute great food, clean services. Worth going place with fam/friends.
Fresh food and good quality as usual. Good servers. After brunch. They have free cotton candy machine at door to give to guest! What a nice surprise.
Went there for a birthday lunch. The buffet was really good! Worth the money spent. Only regret was that we could try everything.. Good customer service :)..the review won’t be complete without the bday picture magnet..
Had a terrific time at the Mandarin Matheson Mississauga location! The food was great and the service was amazing! ALL the staff here were welcoming, attentive, fast and amazing. Special shutout to Harry, Eric and Daniel, they were the BEST staff and servers I’ve EVER experienced at any mandarin location! I regularly go to the Niagara Falls mandarin location but this MATHESON Mandarin location has by far been THE BEST customer service I’ve ever experienced. They went above and beyond to accommodate my friends, family, and I during our dinner. We left happy with full stomachs and great memories! I definitely will be coming back!
Was told: buffet wed-sunday, but they will be open for buffet on the week of may 2nd. we stayed and ordered a la carte. great prices for the size. much bigger than we imagined, about $3.99 on average.
me and my family decided to have lunch at Mandarin on fathers day and were quite surprised to see the amount of people, none the less, the hosts were still friendly, and we were seated pretty quickly. Food and atmosphere were good but the service provided was extra well done. our server Eric got us our drinks fast and provided our family a wonderful dining experience. We could tell our server was really dedicated to their service because even though it was busy they managed to do a wonderful job during my birthday even with the rush.
Truly amazing how fresh everything is at this location and coupled with friendly & polite staff this is our new favourite location. Tried the mango pudding for the first time and was blown away.Thanks for the wonderful experience Mandarin Matheson, keep up the great work!
NIce restaurant. Never been in a chinese restorant in Canada and this was the 1st one. Was expecting to have weird food, however this was a buffet that you pay C$36/adult and you can eat as much as you can. I tried a lot of stuff and I liked it (being a picky eater :) ). The only problem is that you need to book an appointment, otherwise you can wait for more than 1 hour to get in when it's busy. recommended.
Good place for chanies foods.
Lot of items are there.
Tasty food.
Good service.
