I was looking forward for this place opening for so long, and it was good in the beginning but know its the same song and dance, even the mandarin changes it up. I used to go for the lunch decided to try the dinner and couldn't believe that everything was the same they don't put anything extra. Please are the those napkins made of gold, they give one napkin for the whole dinner and thats it, the mandarin constantly giving you new napkins.Thats spretty cheap considering how much they charge. 0 customer service from the owner. If want to charge double you have to put new items on the munu and fresh items!!!

I been to this restaurant many times, and each time it get worse and worse, no one comes to clean off the plates the food is extremely old from the afternoon buffet they don't put fresh items ,get it together guys!!! If you want to charge double then you guys have to put new items in and also have to put fresh food not the afternoons leftover that is disgusting, all the stuffed pepper tasted off the salad was rotted and they still left it there very bad quality control this place is going down in a hurry!!!!!!, the food looks all dried out and many dishes tasted like it has gone bad, I think there boardering between health control and poisoning people and I will never return back there, I gave them lots of business in the summer but thats it , its over. Any one planning to go to this place don't do it, food smells off and you get charged double in the evening for food thats been sitting out all day, and especially todays day and age no one wants to be in bed with food poisoning for a week stay away from this joint total rip-off and no quality food control.

An alternative buffet worth checking out.
I was trying to find a buffet other than Chinese or Indian and this suited me just fine. I tend to like to try "a bit of everything", which is what makes buffets appealing to me. I found BFG (Wedding^D)Buffet here on Restaurantica and decided to check it out.
The restaurant is squeezed in between Yuk Yuk's and Swiss Chalet, but it goes back a long way and the area around the buffet is very open and nicely decorated.
Being as it was Wednesday and not too busy, all the customers were seated in the bar area. It has a nice open feeling with a large row of windows along one side. It has separate doors as well, so could be used for a private function. There was only one server, but she was pleasant and all the dirty plates were swept away during the trips to the buffet.
The food for the most part was fresh and hot. Other than the stuffed peppers looking a little dried out, the other 20 or so items on the hot buffet were appealing. There was also a grill area serving souvlaki, beefteki and a few other standards. The salad bar ingredients were limited, but fresh and tasty, including a wonderful tzatziki. The hummus was good, but not as strong as the average Greek food fan would like.
Dessert always seems to be a favourite amongst people who like Greek food and BFGB offers a good choice. Besides some standard cakes and ice cream, there are some traditional such as spice cookies, havla, and a very good baklava.
I would recommend this to anyone who likes Greek food, or buffet fans looking for something different. There is enogh choice that anyone in the party who doesn't like Greek food could still find enough to eat. Vegetarians could also get by, but might want to check the ingredients list carefully.
As of writing, adult buffet price is $19.95 for dinner Monday through Sunday. Lunch prices are lower, and there is a $4 "sharing" option for the little ones.

A suprisingly good concept held to a very good standard. Not particularly fond of buffets but this intrigued me. Friendly wait staff, but you do serve yourself remember.
The salad bar was clean and well presented, crisp and fresh where it should be and diverse. Overall the food was good quality and not compromised considering the variety. It's not high end food, but made to a good standard.
Overall a pleasant experience, nothing to drive 100 miles for, but I would certainly take guests there and recommend the restaurant for what it is, good value on good comfort style food. - Order: all,buffet

I found the service to be poor, I spoke to the waiter about a problem with the food, and she didn't care about it, so I find this place to be poor in food quality for this reason, usually people will go out of there way to straighten problems out but they didn't care, also the rug in the joint should be changed thats the same rug that was there from previous owners, the owners are rude when you have a problem with the food, I won't be going back, the grilled food was cold thats not fresh in my opinion, I had way better quality food at Mandarin, also for that price they should offer prime rib . There is no prime rib for that price, there desserts are not that great, for the same price you can go the Mandarin and get way more food and better quality and excellent service.

This place is Amazing!
Tucked away in a semi industrial area - strip mall location, this restaurant is a GEM.
Facility - Nothing much to look at on the outside, however a large multi-level dining room on the inside. Nicely decorated with Mediterranean decor and ambiance; the restaurant is very clean. Greek music is heard over the sound system.
Food - This place is an all buffet restaurant theme. The menu (mostly) Greek with an occasional Canadian dish thrown in (not sure why – adds nothing). The food is very authentic and tasty, with many premium menu offerings (for a lunch-time buffet). Desserts offer traditional Greek pastries, cakes and cookies, as well as Canadian ice cream and cakes.
Service - The hostess and server were very friendly and attentive. Smiles, "please", "thank you" and "your welcome" abounded (something very rare in many restaurants today). It was very apparent the staff understands the meaning of hospitality.
Even with the minor food diversions into Canadian cuisine (they need to resist the urge to down grade to this level), however a VERY GOOD experience overall and EXCELLENT VALUE. Worth the drive to Mississauga.
