Great buffet in market area. Clean, friendly and lots of choices. I guess “Mother Tucker’s” has been updated with a new feel and name. I used to enjoy Mother Tucker’s in Winnipeg until it closed many years ago. Was pleasantly surprised.
Been here three times and have never been disappointed. Wide selection of food, friendly staff, quick to bus the empty dishes. Love the carvery and the main dish table. Only downside is that it's often busy and you may need to wait for a table, but on the plus side, a busy buffet means high turnover of food, so it's fresh.

My first time at Tucker's . Took my daughter for her birthday. Waiter didn't provide good service as I expected ..never came to our table to ask how we were doing or if we needed a drink since I just at water initially; had planned on ordering a drink and staying longer but he made no eye contact at our table..guess too occupied with other (still tipped him though) customers...food, dessert and everything else great despite lousy service from that particular waiter. I propably would go back but definitely not have that waiter serve me.
We have been there twice in the last three weeks for the first time in 10 years. Both times we had the same. Great service. Great food. The coleslaw was amazing. Great atmosphere. I had two kids with me and the girls at the pasta bar were great with them. They talked them into eating more than just plain pasta! You don't feel like you are eating "buffet food" made in large quantities. It tastes like home cooking. I think it actually is. Great place and good price.
I was there with the family, the buffet has somethings for every one. Ham was very good, the buffet was at the right temperature. Ok the kids enjoy the sweet and I may say very much. Good outing with family with kids.
The staff here take pride in providing the best possible food and service, and it shows. This is one of our favorite places to go, and we're never disappointed.
I really like it here. The food is really good and theres a decent variety. I don't come here too often due to location, but I look forward to it when I do.
Went on a Thursday at 7pm. Service was good. Food was well made. My options were limited because I am on a Low-carb diet, but I was disappointed to not have many options in terms of meat. I ate the beef roast (had to ask carver for more, and he gave me one more slice without issue). Ate a Kale salad which was good... Loved the sautéed carrots. Basically stuck with veggies and meat. Was disappointed that my kids didn't really find anything that they liked, as the options aren't as vast as the Mississauga location we were used to. Plus parking was expensive.

Went Friday night at 6pm for my Mother's Birthday. The service was friendly and efficient. It was very busy, and if we didn't have a reservations there was an hour wait for a table.
I am on a low-carb diet currently, so my options were fairly limited. What I tried:
-Kale Caesar I actually quite enjoyed it. I had some on almost every plate I got. I'm not even a big fan of raw kale, so I was surprised, but it was very good.
-Garlic Coleslaw was okay. It was decidedly missing something. I think a bit of acid like lemon or vinegar would have taken it up a notch.
-Sweet & Sour fish, I only tried 1 bite, and I wasn't impressed.
-Taco meat was tasty. I quite liked it.
-Roast Beef. One of the better things they had. I ate a lot of it with Gravy & au jus.
-Lamb, I found to be overcooked slightly. It wasn't objectively bad, but it also wasn't good.
-I tried their custom stir fry and it was quite good considering I chose fairly simple items.
-I tried their roasted chicken, which wasn't anything special.
My only real complaint was at the roast beef carving station, I went up a few times, and I asked "Can I get some more please?" after he had put a few small slices on my plate. He told me he couldn't because he would get in trouble from his boss. Not his fault really, but just made it a hassle to have to go keep going back up over and over when I could have just gone up once or twice.
On the expensive side.... Good food and good service. There's a lot of variety and choices of foods and drinks. However, they do not have a lot of asian cuisine to offer. It's mostly salads, pasta, rotisserie and mixed items; mostly '' northern american'' cuisine. It's a bit more ''fancy'' than ordinary buffet restaurants. The only down side is the price. The basic price is 22,95$ for the buffet and all drinks are add ons; not budget and/or student friendly. Either than that, it's all good.
Wonderful service. Excellent quality. What a beautiful experience. Fresh and healthy foods. Amaaaaazing salad bar and taco station!!! Made to order fresh pasta station!! Wonderful roast beef, and soooo much more. We had a birthday supper here and it was effortless. There is something here for everyone. This is a restaurant that demonstrates they care. Families are welcome. Awesome price!!! #localguide
A variety of food to choose from! Definitely a place for everyone! Have been going there for the past 5 years. Service is exceptional (especially the manager). Student and birthday deals are available and facilities is awesome! Parking is easy to find. You can choose from patio or indoors. Always enjoy the ice cream there
The food was good, the selection was great! There's bound to be something you'll like. I was slightly disappointed to find that in most cases, the food looked amazing but it wasn't as tasty as I expected. The prices are reasonable and tip is included in the total. We were well served and all staff we encountered were nice and friendly. We'll go back.
Very good food lots to choose from. Salad choices were good but some were a little lacking in flavor. Over all the experience was good. Would go back again for sure.
