The Fire Pit

Service is horrible, food is alright.
The staff is rude and they look miserable, seriously quit or shutdown the place.
It’s disgusting when they touch your burger with their bare hands while putting on the toppings

The food is ok at best, except for their onion rings and poutine, they’re pretty good. Very tasty gravy, however they use shredded mozzarella and purists hate that on poutine, but it is what it is. however fire pit is one of the few open late, so you can’t ask for much. I find it to be a bit overpriced as well. Overall a decent place when you’re trying to find something at 2 am

Burgers were good. Prices are fair. Service is terrible. Extremely rude. I havent been back since.

Good burgers. Wish they used smaller buns, quite often our burgers would keep falling apart as we ate them.
Service was good and our food was made very quickly and correctly. Will recommend. Last visit was in spring 2014.
Parking spaces is limited because it is located in a small plaza.

The only thing decent about this place is the hours its open and the low prices. Thats where the good stops !! The burger I had was horrible, I thought oh sweet a nice flame broiled burger, instead I quickly realized why it was so cheap … The quality of beef used was that of a mediocre cafeteria just utter dog food! I also ordered a chocolate shake which that was even less than satisfying., I mean come on people how the hell do u screw up a milkshake? Stay away or go to Wendy’s across the street!

If you are starving and in Mississauga, go to this place because their portions are huge! We always get the chicken souvlaki dinner. And it comes with rice, greek salad, fries, toasted bread bun and their signature one onion ring on top.

Rude staff they make fun of customers in there native language and pass dirty comments about girls, the food is all frozen box meat the place sucks!

Great little place for burgers, souvlaki, or other specialties like steak on a kaiser. Open late (until 4 am on Friday) when everything else is closed. It’s basically a Greek takeout place with burgers and other items on the menu. Nice little dining area with a Greek feel to it. It’s located in a small plaza at a very busy intersection, but there’s still decent parking space. Check it out if you haven’t already.

I’ve been here twice now and the first time it was me and one other customer but the second time it was a lot busier. Both times I got the crispy chicken sandwich and an order of fries. The fries come with 1 onion ring it’s a fire pit signature.
The sandwich is great, I always get it with hot sauce and its always the perfect kick to the sandwich. It tastes so much fresher then a chicken sandwich from Wendy’s or McDonald’s. Its always made fresh to order so I know it hasn’t been sitting around. The fries and onion ring are always cooked to perfection. They aren’t overly greasy or soggy. The meal fills me up and its a great lunch.
They’re open late so if you’re looking for a late night bite, I haven’t been here for late night food but I’m sure I’ll be here eventually. I will be coming here for more lunches and I hope to try different things on the menu. I will update my review as I try more items.

It’s a great old school burger, steak and souvlaki place. Large (too large) portions. Great fries. Seating pretty tight at lunch time. Great prices

I tried the burger and onion rings and stole a couple fries off my colleague’s tray. The fries are fresh and handcut. They are reminiscent of a chip truck fry. Pretty good. The onion rings are fresh and hand battered. The batter is pretty thick and somewhat doughy — kind of like a hush puppy dough. They’re not the best onion rings I’ve ever had, but they are pretty tasty.
The burger, unfortunately, was a frozen patty burger. It hit the spot because I was famished, but I can’t reward a top rating to a frozen burger. It’s really not that hard to make a fresh burger.
The driveway is so close to the intersection at Hurontario and Britannia so it can be very tricky to navigate when traffic is busy.

This place has been around for as long as I can remember. The Fire Pit was first introduced to me back in high school, as one of those ‘late-​night’ ‘after club drunk’ must-​go places to be. And that’s what most sauga people know the establishment as.
However, drunk or sober, their food is good! (Yes, I’ve reconfirmed my taste buds here on not-​so-​drunk nights.)
Wally’s, on Central Pkwy & Hurontario, is a well-​known diner too. However, I prefer the food here.
What should you get at The Fire Pit? Their souvlaki is amazing. Their burgers are pretty good, their poutines are bomb, and almost everything comes w/​that ONE signature onion ring. I wouldn’t bother getting a steak though.
There’s no worrying about portions here. And if you’re going to order a poutine, they drench theirs with gravy. Half way through ours, there was still a pool of gravy at the bottom. Oh my heart.
For my fellow Unilocalers critiquing the cleanliness of the joint, it was pretty clean even the past few times I’ve went. Plus it’s a diner, come on! Still much cleaner in comparison to Wally’s and Master Steak.
Open super late! Which is hard to find in the west end here. But you happen to drop by during the day, it’ll be much quieter and free of drunk clubbers coming from My Apartment. Check it out!

I like their burgers and souvlaki a lot, but the reason I come here is they have the best fries and gravy. Onion rings are also up there… which is why you might want to order the frings. Even if you don’t they make a habit of giving you one or two rings with a fries order so you can try them. That is confidence right there and deservedly so.

Update review: still coming to this place pretty much when I can, and I’ve never had a chicken souvlaki dinner like the one they serve here. The chicken is cooked fresh along with the salad, fries and rice. The tzatziki sauce they give you for the chicken is delicious as well. This place is seriously amazing and I can’t wait to go back. The prices have gone up just a tad bit but I don’t mind.
Overall this place is top notch and I don’t think it can get any better. I believe it changed my life and made me see life in a different way. I love you.

I was craving a steak sandwich and this place just happened to be on the way to where i was going. As i was placing my order, i had a friendly chat with the person on cash. I didnt have to wait long for my order to be ready. The fried onions on the steak was a nice touch. The fries were decent. I will be back I’m sure but its a bit of an awkward location depending on which direction you are headed. Next time i think i will give the souvlaki a try. I suppose i would have enjoyed my visit a bit more if the two guys sitting at the table behind me would not speak so loud in a foreign language and most of all if they would shower. But we dont juge the establishment on the clientel so 3 stars, the food was decent.

Everyone is doing poutine now but the poutine they sell is better then other restaurants. No cheese curds on the poutine but the gravy and the fries taste great. If you feel really hungry upgrade your combo to a poutine !

I have been coming here over 15 years, and the food is always consistent. Fresh cut fries, salads, steak sandwiches, and greek souvlaki dinners are ‘must haves’ here. They have the best gravy I have ever tasted in my life. Everything is cooked fresh in front of you, I am actually surprised at some of the negative reviews here. The portions they give you here are very generous and a one person dinner can actually serve two people. The only thing I don’t like here are the onions rings which are very large, soft and greasy. The steak on a kaiser is also very good here and the location is fantastic (with quick access to the 401) Even though I now live in Toronto, I still order from here when I do visit Mississauga.

OK who doesn’t know the Fire Pit. There used to be many of these places around in the 90’s. Unfortunately this is the only one left. Any one who lives is Mississauga knows this place is open real late on the weekends. Prime place after partying in the Sauga area. I am not going to say that its the best burger joint in town but it is pretty good. I mean where else in that area can you get a decent burger or souvlaki. Haven’t really tried anything other than a burger and fries at the Fire Pit so I can’t really judge on anything else. Burger is tasty and juicy. Fries are great and love how when you order fries they give you 1 huge onion ring on top. Good touch. Different is key. Will definitely return to this location.

Wear gloves please! I don’t appreciate seeing you wipe the counter with ur hands and then make my burger filthy. I dont want to think of other filth going on in the kitchen
Will not return. Burger is so overrated. I’m not even sure if it wad really beef I was eatting

I’ve only been here twice but that’s all I need to say that the burgers, poutine, and Greek salad are amazing.
It’s your typical burger and souvlaki joint that’s been around for 30 years. The burgers have been recommended to me as some of the best burgers in Mississauga — and they are, for the price. At only $ 5 and change, the banquet burger is essentially a large bacon cheeseburger. Luckily for me, that’s all I ordered. Its size was much larger than other burgers at a fraction of the price.
The second time I went, I had the Greek salad upon recommendation from one of my Greek friends. I’ll have to seek her recommendations more often, as this was as good as it gets. Don’t bother ordering the large size, the regular size is enough to fill your plate. I also got the regular poutine after seeing how good it looked. While it doesn’t compare to more specialized poutine spots, this was equally as fulfilling and even had a large onion ring on top — a nice touch.
The food here is great, but what’s even better are their hours. They’re open as late as 4am on weekends! I think I have a new late night spot to go to in Mississauga. I’m glad I found The Fire Pit.
