This restaurant in Mississauga is our top choice when on business travel. The Turkish cuisine is outstanding, the service is excellent and the ambiance is very pleasant. Note that this is a halal establishment that does not serve alcohol. read more

This new spot has a beautiful ambiance and friendly staff, definitely a step up from the Vaughan location. The Lahmacun was the highlight: freshly made, perfectly crispy yet soft, and a great portion size. Easily the best I've had. The platter was also fantastic as the meat was tender, the chicken was juicy, and everything was seasoned perfectly. The only miss was the Fattoush, which was a bit chunky and "meh," but the quality of the mains more than made up for it. Highly recommend for the grills and lahmacun! read more

Gorgeous and spacious place. The servers are very friendly. We were a group of 8 and got seated at a round table, which is really nice to ensure everyone's engaged. I find it extremely weird when a restaurant in North America doesn't serve you water. You have to pay for water at this restaurant. And although the food was tasty, it was extremely greasy. They only have the Turkish equivalents of more sodas, which isn't a big deal. We got the peach and basil lemonade, chicken Adana kebab, and iskender kebab. The lemonade was great, not too sweet and was perfectly balanced with both flavors. But I left the meal feeling like the mains were all just butter and oil. read more

Mama Fatma - Iskender kebab - Turkish Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

What a charming warm restaurant! We were warmly greeted upon arrival and welcomed into the restaurant. This is a bonus for us!! Our group of 3 ordered the Mama platter for 2 and a very appetizers! This was plenty of food, we even had leftovers. It's a great shareable platter with tons of different meat options, personally the lamb is my favourite, nice spiced and goes well with the mix dip appetizer we purchase. We were served complimentary black tea afterwards! If you still have a stomach they have plenty of dessert options too. I'd definitely recommend this so for the hardy meat eater, plenty of great grilled meats. I'd say skip the shasuka, but get the dips. They also have long tables to accommodate larger parties(8-20)!! read more

Located on the South East corner of Mississauga Road and Derry. There is plenty of parking in this plaza but avoid parking out front as the parking lot designer failed traffic flow optimization. Came here for a celebration and was informed we have a private room booked only to realize this private room was only partitioned off by some wall pants and dividers. There were kids constantly running in to play with the plants and offered Zero privacy if that is what you are looking for. I was also informed due to this restaurant's lack of reservation system, there is a $200 charge for this joke of a premium private room. (Minus 1) There was a wait staff that was introduced and was informed they would be taking care of us for the duration... I ordered an ice water while I waited for the rest of the party to show up, was provided can of coke. When I corrected him that I requested for an ice water, a bottle of spring water was provided ($1.50). I again inquired why there was no tap water and told they do not provide tap water (WTF?!? - excuse me but tap water is much cleaner and better tested than "ozone enhanced" bottled water. (BIG minus 1 for this environmentally unfriendly cash grab)... Menus were provided and was told we can scan the QR code to see pictures of the menu items. The pictures were small icons and could not be expanded to view the contents. I resorted to googling the restaurant and thanks to Google Reviews and Yelp, had a better idea of what the products looked like but many pictures had no description... back to guessing the food items. The dedicated waiter disappeared and was no where to be seen to place any order after sitting around for 45 minutes with everyone pressing the table bell hoping to flag down our server (think Korean restaurant table bell but this rendition does not work Minus 0.5 - yes this is already at a 2.5 score and without the food to be ordered). Finally flagged down our server to get some appetizers to get things started. BABA GANOUSH - presentation looked nice with an order of fresh pita bread bread (you cannot really screw up pita bread). The taste... the eggplant had no smokey profile, no tartness from the lemon or bite from the garlic. Not an expert on this but hard pass after one bite. LAHMACUN - was ok with ground beef ontop of flatbread. Interesting but could have a little more spices to bring out the flavour profile of the toppings CHICKEN ADANA KEBAB WRAP - this was the better of the 3 apps but the meat I found was a little dry and bland. The saving grace was the onions/ parsley and tomatoes to provide the meat some much needed juice and flavour. For the main, we settled in the mixed kebab combo so everyone got to try a little of everything as all the reviews raved of the wonderful food this establishment served up. Adana kebab - the beef kebab was... under-seasoned and did not have much beefy taste. Chicken Skewer - chicken is chicken and again under-seasoned and a little on the dry side (this was chicken breast mind you and to each their own) Veal shish kebab - meat was definitely soft and tender but that was about it. As you guessed it, under seasoned and could not pin point the flavour profile Lamb chop - grilled to medium - found the meat a little tough. Being lamb lollipops, I would expect a nice tender juicy bite to enjoy... again a little disappointed Beef Doner - maybe it was a busy day and they pre-shaved the beef doner as it was dry and again lacked seasoning to bring out the flavours. Chicken Doner - like the beef counterpart, this too was overcooked and dry. Not much flavour Chicken Wings - ding ding ding! We have a winner here. This had flavour! A little seasoning on the outside, little char to bring out some smoky flavours to complement the juicy meat inside. If you come here, this would be the ONLY item I can recommend unfortunately. Our waiter disappeared for the rest of the meal service. Not to come ask how the food was or any need for more beverages. (Minus one for deserting us) Never to try the Turkish coffee or any of the deserts read more

Standard of practice is to offer free water. This was off putting because it makes me feel taken advantage of when the standard practice in Canada is to provide free water. The food was ok. Not memorable. I say this as a vegetarian so keep that in mind. I didn't find it terribly overpriced. However the drinks were too expensive. A glass of orange juice for $13 is just crazy for me. The restaurant itself was pretty. read more

Finally managed to try the new location of Mama Fatma. I have previously been to Mama Fatma in Vaughan, but many years ago. I remember the experience being quite memorable at the time and the food being good too so was excited to try the new Mississauga location. It's always packed whenever I pass by so never got it till now, and even then, we had to wait an hour to get a table. The long wait times is quite inconvenient, especially since they don't take reservations (from what I found when trying to do a booking online). I'd prefer if they find a better way to manage the long lineups, since seating is limited (seating for when you're looking for a table) and the long wait times can be quite annoying if you're on a time crunch. The location is absolutely beautiful, and a great option if you're looking for a fancy dinner out for a special occasion or a date night. We went to celebrate a milestone birthday (60). Though the food is on the pricier end, the food is delicious and the wait time to get the appetizers and the mains were not as long as I had expected, given the crowd. There's a lot of menu items to choose from, ranging from Turkish dishes to pasta, to seafood and more. We opted for the Mama Fatma kebab with nuts (36.99) which I found quite high for the price, since it was a single meat skewer (though quite fat and big, and ok to share, if sharing other dishes too). The other thing to note is that the amount of pistachio added to the kebab was not as generous, compared to other Turkish restaurants. However, the dish was flavorful and delicious, served hot. Food is not served all at the same time, but rather when it's ready, which is annoying as it comes in batches and when sharing, which can be a bit annoying, but that's OK. The second dish we got was the chicken tava ($27.99), which was a more generous portion despite being the tava for 1. The bread and rice that came with it was delicious. The bread was served hot and super fresh. We also loved the appetizer, the sigara boregi (turkish cheese sticks). I was expecting it to be more cheesy (the kind where you can see the cheese pull), but it was made mostly with feta and served with a side of sweet and sour chili sauce, which paired well. It was delicious regardless. For dessert, we tried the tres leche as recommended by the server. It is actually one of my favourite desserts, but I found it a little sweet though it was good. We were served complimentary Turkish tea to complete our meal and the homemade ayran ($4.99) was also quite good! I'd love to try more dishes on the menu and more desserts. Overall, the ambiance is great, the restaurant is beautiful and the food, as good as I remember the first time. We had a wonderful time and the server (I think his name is Bari or Baris) we had was also very nice, professional, friendly and smiling. A rare sight at Turkish restaurants in the GTA. I get they were super busy which is why they couldn't meet some of our requests (such as requesting for a glass), but overall I'd recommend Mama Fatma, despite the long wait times. read more

Belated review, we went there few months back. Great ambience and interior decor. Wonderful service. Food was presented to our table very professionally with feel good care. We had a Beyti and a Mama Fatma Kebab. The price is a bit steep comparing with serving size. Taste wise would rate both with 3.5 star, presentation 4.5 star. read more

We had come here on a Sunday morning at around 11:45 am. There were only a few tables with guests when we had arrived however, it quickly became full as we were dining. When we first walked into this restaurant, we were surprised at how beautiful the décor was! This used to be a Swiss Chalet so, when we had seen how it had changed, we were pleasantly surprised. Definitely top-notch décor in my opinion; all of the colours meshed well together, flowing nicely in all areas of the restaurant. In terms of the food, there were definitely many options, which made it difficult to choose. I found that the prices were much higher than I've seen elsewhere. I finally settled on the beef and chicken mix wrap with fries on the side. To be honest, I found the wrap to have too much lettuce, and not enough meat; as well, the inside was dry, could have used more sauce in order to make the meat taste better. The presentation of the food on the dish was nice, and I was even given a side order of bulger which I thought was a nice touch. Service was good, with many different people coming by to bring us our food and beverages. Everyone was pleasant, and they looked to enjoy what they were doing. On the whole, this place definitely lives up to the hype; fancy décor however, the price is a tad too high for me, and the food could have been a bit better in my opinion. I will definitely be back though, as I would like to try the other dishes on the menu. read more

It's nicely decorated Turkish restaurant, serving traditional Turkish cuisine and kebabs in a family friendly setting. The service is decent and the staff are friendly. We ordered "Shaslik" and "Mix Pide". Shaslik was fresh and perfectly marinated. Pide was delicious, too; more than enough for one person. They also offered Turkish desserts and coffee/tea. read more

Cute restaurant with pretty decor. The food was tasty and the portions were very large. Each table has a button to call the waiter which is useful. We came on a weekday for lunch but the restaurant was very full, likely due to the holidays, so the wait staff were a bit slow but apologetic. I'd return again to try the mixed platter and dessert which looked good, but I was too full. read more

As a vegetarian, I'm going to have to say that they didnt have a TON of options. Regardless, the food was pretty good! The cheese pide is simple but still yummy! The pita was AMAZING!!!! And they seem to include tea with all the meals which is nice. I also loved the tres leches cake! Such a beautiful restaurant in general, very pretty and aesthetic! Service was decent although they refuse tap water? So we had to pay for bottled water which was odd. read more

Great place and food was amazing! Wish they would allow customers to make reservations. Great service and ambiance. Restaurant is beautifully decorated. read more

Horrrendous service. The waiters were rude and pushy. We hadn't even finished our meal and at least 3 waiters on 3 separate occasions came to ask us if they could clean the table and take our food away while we were still eating. Finally, the bus boy came and started to clean our table while we were still sitting on the table. They wanted us to leave so that they could have that table for other customers. This is horrible service. When one spends a couple of hundred on a meal for two people, and expects better service. Will never return to this establishment. read more

My friends love this place so we joined them for lunch. I was not impressed at all to be honest. I did not find that the menu was vegetarian friendly and the salads were okay. Please be careful, I did not check my bill , I just paid for our lunch. A few days later when I went to review my bill I was surprised to see that I was charged for a lava cake that we did not order. Management was not able to help and again, check your bill. Make sure there are no mistakes. read more

Had a couple of great lunch meetings there. Everyone loved the food, atmosphere, and service. If you're a drinker, now know that they don't serve alcohol. The first time we got the mixed BBQ platter for two. It was enough for three people. If you can't decide which meet to choose, then this is a good first-time choice. The second time we were four with individual orders. We ordered Adana Kabab, Sactava (Sauteed Beef), Lamb Lokum, and lamb chops. Lamb Chops were thin and more cooked/dryer. There's a great variety of meat dishes to choose from and done very nice vegetarian dishes with eggplant, etc. Plan to spend about $50 per person, unless you order the sandwiches. Same great food in pita or wrap for smaller portions saves you a few $. read more

Can Turkish food ever get played out ? Thats gonna be a hard NO. I landed in Canaydia Land and after 15 yrs or so since my last visit I must say, I really missed the north. I always had a love for TO and their multi culture embrace (can't speak for now) but there's one thing that they always had one over on the states and that was their HALAL food game. Everything that I remember I've had over 15 yrs ago has been elevated many folds, which brings me to MAMA FATMA. Upon walking in here, I thought I stepped into a restaurant in Dubai. Colors were popping and the decor was like a middle eastern GREAT GATSBY twist. Already was racking up points from the beginning. Once we got seated , our waiter was cool and had the answers to any questions we had. We were so hungry we went straight for the main course and surprisingly the prep time was not too long. Any other little thing we needed, our waiter or another waiter we stopped close by, helped us out. I can't give any more details because you have to go here. It's great for dates, families (the kids next to us were getting alittle too "at home" but hey, they're kids), bringing the wife out for an anniversary, a bachelorette party, just about any occasion. Their food was manufique, service was amazing and the ambience was on point. Go to Mama ASAP read more

**Terrible Experience - Rude Staff, Poor Service, Overpriced** This was my sixth visit, and it will be my last. The service was awful--staff were unprofessional, and the manager was disrespectful and inconsiderate. They made a huge issue out of changing our table, which was too small for five adults. One employee took our order on a piece of tissue paper while kneeling next to my daughter, which felt very inappropriate. The staff seemed afraid to call the manager, and the overall treatment was unacceptable. The food is overpriced for the quality, and the experience has gotten worse over time. If this continues, I doubt the place will stay open much longer. I will never return and do not recommend it to anyone. read more

Barat was amazing! Great food and service when we visited with family. The ambiance was amazing too.

Wonderful restaurant. The place is beautifully decorated and clean. The servers are amazing and the food is delicious. Compared to many other restaurants I've tried in Mississauga, this place stands out. I would love to go again with my family and try more of their food. The only suggestion I have is to keep some water and cups on the tables for the guests to have. read more

We enjoyed the food and the portion sizes, which are generous. The food selection is great and everything tasted very good. The one major complaint is that the restaurant does not serve tap water and insists on customers paying for still or sparkling water, which comes in small bottles. I'm afraid this will prevent me from returning for another meal and/or recommending this restaurant to friends. It's unacceptable from both an environmental perspective (think of the waste involved with all the unnecessary plastic bottles) and from a customer service perspective when Toronto's tap water is perfectly safe and serving water should be a standard and baseline part of any restaurant experience. read more

Portions are very small and food is bland. Nothing is fresh or hot. Service is below average. They're often busy because they're new so the staff looks stressed out and you feel rushed. I can live with mediocre service but not bad food. Won't be back. read more
