Honestly? The food was amazing! Décor, staff, meh but food amazing! Ordered the tzatziki and pita to start while we waited for a friend. The tzatziki was amazing but very garlicky so fresh breathe beware! We weren’t super hungry after the starter and I had seen some super large plates of food go go by to other tables so I was content with my order of a chicken wrap. When those arrived they were huge! Delicious and huge! I ate almost all of mine but had to leave the last bite. The flavours were really really good. I made good use of the leftover tzatziki on my wrap. The staff could have been a little more attentive with the utensils and water. We had to wait a while for both. It might have been easier to just have a station where guests can grab it for themselves. All in all good experience and would go back.

Came back mostly for the friendly staff. The food was average. The Lamb kababs were the most memorable, I would suggest the gyros… It’s the best bang for bucks. They tend to get busy during dinner service so the wait for service can be a little long. The ambiance is nice, been there for a date and girls’ night out, so it’s a place that you’d be able to talk with your dining partners… hopefully you bring back up subjects as there will be lots of time to converse between seating-ordering-eating-bill…patience is required when things are busy. The owner has spunk but can be friendly :). Glad to have tried this place out.

Food and services is great but little bit higher on the price consider the location but the portion is very generous so sharing plate is a good option too

2 stars coz the descriptions«Meh I’ve tasted better» is the truth. First off it is pricey. Next… although that pita sandwich was stuffed and fat, the words«quality over quantity» applies here. I’m not going to say that this is a bad place to go to but for my first visit it was disappointing. I do feel the options in Messini are a lot better but since this is in brampton then why not root for the home team. With that being said I am open to returning to this establishment. There are a lot of good reviews promoting it. I will update my review and hopefully provide a better one next time.

Food taste and quality is AMAZING!!! Worth taking a look. Don’t come unless you have time. Food takes a while… that is the reason for the missing star. If your in Brampton stop in. So far I can recommend: Chicken and beef kebab Hummus Tzatziki — put it on everything Fries — Just passed on salad; too good Pita Rice

I have been coming here for a few years now and this is still my fav. Mediterranean restaurant in Brampton. I love their mosaic chicken with rice and potatoes and hot sauce! The portions are pretty good, leaves me satisfied every time. I usually get take out and order is always ready when I go to pick it up. It is somewhat hidden in the plaza so you have to kinda look for it but its definitely a place to check out!

When my friend and I pulled in to the parking space across the restaurant, we were debating if we should really eat here. But the food and service were exceptional. We had a great time catching up along with the delicious food. We ordered mosaic chicken and chicken cleo and it was just soooo good! It’s my new favorite spot!

Let me start by saying, I love this spot. Its a hidden gem in a busy plaza(if that makes sense). I first came here years ago when they first opened through a friend of mine and been coming here ever since. This place has changed but for the better and what I do like about them is that the things that matter stayed consistent: food & service. No matter who is servicing us, I’m always greeted and welcomed into their establishment. They make you feel comfortable and dont let you leave with the feeling that you’re just another customer. Food here is finger licking good but I have to admit I’m addicted to there Chicken Shish(Super). Discloser: its huge and packed with meat(I normally can’t finish the whole thing). Its essentially a Chicken Shawarma with French Fries in it, yum yum yum :) because I classify this has a Shawarma, I can confidentiality say this has to be the best Shawarma spot in Brampton. There’s something about their white sauce that has me coming back every time.

I used to go to this place 4−5/month. It’s more like a 3.5*. The food taste is great. The garlic sauce & tzatziki are out of this world! I ordered the Chicken Mosaic Classic which came with roasted potato & rice. The chicken was over cooked. The potato’s were a little on the cool side & the rice was runny. They had the order of food delivery messed up as well. The salad was first then came the appetizer & then the main course. The pita didn’t arrive until we were 75% through the meal. Here’s the issue… this place could be great & the food could be more fantastic but the chef/owner is «difficult». The kitchen turns out some great food but the service is slow & the staff is un-engaged. This place could turn from good to great if they could fix these issues.

Lets just call this place a hidden gem. Its in a fairly large plaza off to the side. The food is great service is a bit slow. All food is made fresh and cooked to perfection. I went out on a limb and ordered a Philly cheese steak from a Greek restaurant and I must say it was one of the best cheese steak sandwiches that I have ever had. I have dined here quite a few times and always left pleased.

Just ok in my opinion. Name of the restaurant sounds way, waaay more exotic than what it actually is, re: greek food. And btw, sign says GREEKFOOD, so it was sorta difficult to find in this busy plaza with a bunch of units crammed tightly together. So look out for that and not«Mosaic Mediterranean» in the same plaza as Fortino’s. When I stopped by for lunch today, lady was running the entire place by herself, picking up the phone, taking peoples’ orders, cooking, cashing people out. As a patron, who has retail background, this isn’t the most impressive thing to see. It translates into possible mismanagement issues. Due to the short staffing, food did take a while to get — approx. 15−20mins for the lunch special which was a pita sandwich(of your choice) + fries + pop OR salad. If you choose salad, you don’t get a drink. Lady was pretty explicit about this. At $ 10, it’s not über-cheap by any means. Ok, but again, seems like there is more value in dining Asian. My chicken shawarma wrap was pretty good, esp. if you eat it fresh and hot. Not so great after it cooled. What did impress me was the freshness of the veggies in the wrap/Greek Salad AND the fact that the fries were hand-cut, not frozen. Would go again if it was in my ‘hood, but it’s quite far!

Certainly wouldn’t know of this place if it weren’t for Unilocal.In my hometown, but on the otherside of it. I found myself nearby today, so finally gave it a shot. One of my things has long been to have a trusty go-to Pita/Shawarma place, and thankfully I can add this to the list. I had the chicken pita wrap and decided to go with fries in it. First off, they pulled out marinated chicken out of the fridge and cooked it fresh right then and there — a good sign. The staff were really friendly and talked as I waited. I also had to ask about the owners as I know a lot of ‘Greek’ places, aren’t actually Greek. I also had heard of their hot sauce, which I don’t associate with Greek food at all. This isn’t a bad thing, as I actually tend to prefer Turkish and Lebanese food to Greek. The hostess thought that they were Syrian — which would make sense since I’ve had some seriously hot sauces at Syrian-run places before. But I digress… When I received my pita, I’d liken it to the first time I received my children at birth. The thing is huge! It was to-go, and they double wrap it in tinfoil and was told to peel as I eat — like a banana. What a novel idea! LOVED the huge, tasty, and generous portioned chicken — that’s really the star. The veggies did their thing by being fresh. I didn’t see any pickled veggies in case that matters to some. The hot sauce was nice, and certainly builds as you reach your way down. Enjoyed the the Tzatziki as well(they is certainly some Greek stuff there) Again, I just have to applaud the genius way of wrapping this thing, as it would’ve been almost impossible otherwise. Is there a downside? Oddly, it was too big. Towards the very end, I was kind’ve looking forward to it being done. A small complaint, and maybe if I were famished I may have felt differently. Oh, and the fries weren’t weird at all. They’re fresh cut, so it was just like having potatoes inside… which I guess would make sense. I want to give the full menu a try another time by dinning in, though I’d agree with another reviewer that the ambiance is so-so.

Bigger portions than I expected but tasty nonetheless. My only concern — I wish the kitchen was separated from the dining area. Your clothes will smell a bit when you leave. There is a good selection of Mediterranean food choices and service is timely. You will not leave hungry. I like the mural on the entryway too. What it lacks: it feels more like a snack bar than a restaurant. I couldn’t help but feel this place would be a great candidate for restaurant makeover. I give it three stars for great food, good service but giving me he sensation that his restaurant could be more than what it actually is

This place was absolutely phenomenal! The boyfriend and I came here for the first time the other night, and I couldn’t have been happier! First of all, it’s in a plaza with a sign that says«Greek Food». We drove by twice without realizing it was the restaurant we were looking for. Don’t let the outside fool you. We ordered the Bathenjane Dip to start. It was a pretty big portion for 2 people. It was incredible! Served with warm pita, and topped with olives. So. Good. I then ordered the falafel plate with rice and potatoes. It comes with a salad(Greek or Caesar), but I asked them to sub it for tabbouleh. This was no problem for them. The salad is HUGE. This plus the dip was more than filling. When the rest of the meal came, I was overwhelmed with the amount of food. It all tasted fabulous. Those were probably the best falafels I’ve ever had. Ever. My boyfriend ordered the Mosaic Chicken Classic with Greek salad and rice and potatoes. Another massive portion. He mentioned that the vegetables were nicely cooked, and that the texture of the chicken was great. We couldn’t order dessert because we were so full! You could see the cooks working in the kitchen, and you could hear the owner giving directions and keeping on top of things. A few times, I heard him tell the chefs to add more of this or that, and attended carefully to the details. I appreciated and respected this… This is how you get repeat customers! The only reason I didn’t give this place a full 5 stars was because the service was a little slow. However, this was totally understandable when seeing how many take-out orders they were making in addition to the dine-in orders. I’ll definitely be asking my boyfriend to bring us back here again :)

We ate the bruschetta — yum! The balsamic was a nice touch. I prefer a little more basil though. Hubby ordered the lamb souvlaki and I had the chicken souvlaki. Both were incredibly juicy. The portions are crazy. No way I was going to be able to eat all of the rice and potatoes. Great tsaziki! We arrived shortly after 5pm on a Sunday. Place was pretty busy. Service was great, staff were friendly and the owner cares! I’d come here again if I was in Brampton.

Great food and owner takes a special interest into all his customers to ensure they enjoy their meal; goes above and beyond. It is in a plaza but dont be fooled, the quality of food is awesome and consistent. –The Roasted Veg penne in Alfredo sauce is amazing(Yes a Mediterranean resto with great pasta) –Chicken Slovaki also real good –Veggie Poutine a must try

When my boyfriend told me that he made a reservation in this famous mediterranean restaurant for vday, I hoped to myself it better be good. :) it was our first time, he just Googled it and believed that is famous base on the reviews… when I found out that it’s in a plaza I almost cry deep inside. I mean, seriously. vday dinner… in a plaza… you’ve got to be kidding me! When we arrive it was packed and there are people waiting inside. It’s small but it’s cozy and you can see how people in the kitchen are preparing your food. which i think is pretty nice. you can see what you’re about to get. This place reminds me of Anatolia, the resto to go to whenever we crave for something mediterranean back in New Zealand. The setting, the coziness, It felt like I’m home again.:) … I like how Chef Tony is so passionate about his cooking… everything was NICELYDONE, FRESH and by jeez the food tastes EXCELLENT! We ordered fried calamari for starters,.it was cooked to perfection… with tzatziki dipping sauce, oh goodness!.. I almost forgot my boyfriends name! :) we had shrimp and mosaic chicken for our mains and we knew we have new fave resto to put on our list. Keep it up chef Tony! Words are being scattered.. So don’t let me down! :)

Their food is always consistent and that’s very important too me. I love that they make their own hot sauce from cracked peppers awesome… I always order the Greek pita and have them smother it in it. The guy that owns this place is awesome and his mother who works there as well is very nice which make the customer service a bonus. Food is Always fresh and their meat is hormone and gmo free! Honestly I feel like this restaurant is too good to be in Brampton but on the flip side I’m lucky to have such a great find so close.

I waited almost 2 hrs for delivery and it was well worth it! Although, nobody should have to wait that long. Try the chicken parmeason penne and the chicken souvlaki dinner and Greek salad! Amazing, I’m surprised I forgot to write a review for this place. Extra taziki sauce please. Reason for the 4 stars. the delivery. Food 4⁄5 out of 5 easy.
