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!
