Came here a few times. I love the Meatball though I have to say I don't recommend getting the stuffed as with the peperoni it becomes overly salty. I assume they don't account for that. The spaghetti was really good and fresh. LOVE the mozzarella so I recommend getting anything with the fresh mozzarella (like the caprese salad). Service though is what brought this place down for me. The first time we ate here it was pretty busy. Service was a bit standoffish. I don't know if the guy was having a bad day or whatever but it was a little rude. We attributed the length it took to get our food out due to how busy the restaurant was at the time and often times I believe our table was forgotten. The second time we came to eat we came at an odd time. Even when the restaurant is pretty empty, it is really hard to flag down any waiters or waitresses. It got to the point where the bartender had to come over to our table to take our order after we had been waiting half an hour in a relatively empty restaurant. Even then, food was slow coming out and we had to wait an indecent amount of time just to have our drinks refilled. While the food was good (fresh tasting, and well cooked), the service was really subpar. I would have liked to give this restaurant a higher rating because the food is very good, but the service is a really big let down and does ruin the overall experience when you feel like you've paid money to be forgotten or overlooked. read more

Quick service, can get a little slow when it is busy but got seated within 30 mins without reservations during peak timess! Love their Naked fresh mozza appetizer and zucca ravioli ! read more

Scaddabush - Naked - Italian Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I absolutely LOVE this place! This is my "go-to" spot for amazing food at fair prices and friendly staff. As a girl, where you eat is just as important as how good the food is. Inside, the trendy candles, chandelier, decor, and even the cool brick wall layering is very cute and Toronto-esque. I love being inside, and even hosted a group gathering here (they have their own event planner who is great at her job). As a personal side note, you HAVE to try their pizzas and butternut squash ravioli (I think that's what it was... regardless, I devoured it in like two minutes). You won't regret coming here. So gooooood! ;) read more

I honestly HATE this place! I wish it would go back to being an Alice Fazoolis! Their menu is mediocre and there are not enough pasta options! I tried their fresh mozzarella and it really wan't that special- I've had better! What I hated the most was the service! The waitress rarely checked on our table, and we had to keep asking for our water to be refilled by others passing by. When I told her I was not happy with my caesar salad due to its weird wasabi like spiceyness which ended up being, because of the garlic they put in it. She blamed it on the garlic that was being picked during the season, but I am quite sure the cooks should be tasting it before serving it and adjust it accordingly. Then she took it away and did not offer me a replacement. Not a happy camper, will probably never go back again. read more

Love the food here, even though it's not the healthiest. The atmosphere is also really nice and cozy. The only thing I don't like about Scaddabush is their food prices. read more

Went here on the weekend. We had been eyeing up this place for sometime. We had our niece over for a visit and thought this would be a good place to go. We were taken to a table beside a family that had an ipad in front of their child with a ten second music tune playing on a loop. Not the restaurants fault, and they found a new place for us right away. Ordered an appetizer and three meals and three soft drinks. Soft drinks arrived. Flat and flavourless. Advised the waiter. They went back and gave us a new drinks. These were heavily carbonated and sugary, but literally flavorless for a Sprite. Our meals arrived - waiter forgot about our appetizer 'Sometimes I can't read my own writing,' was his response. My niece and wife ordered fresh made pasta. My niece ordered pollo pesto. The pasta wasn't good and was pretty much covered in only garlic. My wife ordered Spaghetti and meatball (singular). The pasta was a little too firm and the sauce was far too sugary. Myself, I ordered the meatball sandwich. From the description it didn't say anything about green or red peppers, but there were a lot on the sandwich when it arrived. And that flavour rapidly permeated everything. And since it isn't a flavour I like I was only able to eat about 1/3 of the sandwich, which was very bready. Overall, all 3 of us were disappointed with our meals. Everything was fairly bland and flavourless. None of us ate more than half our meal. They ended up taking my sandwich off the bill, but not the soft drinks. So the price of two pasta dishes and 3 soft drinks ended up at $55 Presentation of the food: I have to say all the food arrived looking very good. However, I'm there more for the taste and quality of the food. Overall - first and last visit here. read more

I have been to this restaurant so many times during the week for lunch and had great food and amazing service. I went there tonight and I am not sure I will ever go back. We waited for about 20 mins for a table to be cleaned off so we could be seated. (yes I did make a comment it may be an indication of the service we would get). We ordered and it took about 10 mins for my friend to get her drink and I had to ask a second time for mine (it was an ice tea). We also finally got a glass of water too. We both ordered salads for dinner and I ordered bruschetta as well; without the avocado. I got my salad first and was told the kitchen could not figure out what I meant by no avocado on my bruschetta (duh, it means do not put it on it). The bruschetta finally came and it was soggy and disgusting - it has clearly been sitting around for a while. I mentioned it to the waiter and he apologized and said he would let the kitchen know. I was also charged for the soggy bruschetta. The waiter was continuously apologizing to us. They either need more staff or need to improve their wait staff because I cannot remember the last time I have had such poor service. read more

My review is a bit late however I felt it important to still comment. Went here for my boyfriend's birthday dinner in December. Cons: very, very loud environment (we could not hear each other talk while sitting at a small table). The fries we ordered were so salty we couldn't even eat them. The waitress was kind enough to bring us another order hoping they would be less salty (they weren't). We were appreciative until we got the bill and saw a charge for the extra orders of fries. Not cool. My boyfriend and mom ordered the pork chop (It was a Special). The meat was very good however it came with a very hot/spicy sauce which made it difficult to eat. We went through a ton of water between the spicy sauce and the salty fries! Pros: Mac and Cheese was very good. It's a small portion but because it's very creamy, you can't eat too much anyways. The dessert was great! Overall, the experience wasn't good and neither of us will be returning. read more

Great food and nice atmosphere, I loved the band with an amazing music. I liked the appetizers presentation and quality of material used in the food with an excellent service. read more

I have been to Scaaddabush quite a few times and always enjoy the experience. The last time I visited this restaurant I ordered their thin crust 'Sophia' pizza with chicken, goat cheese, roasted peppers and it was amazing! The pizza was perfectly baked and loaded with fresh ingredients. I really liked that they were quite generous with goat cheese making this dish super delicious. I also tried other items on the menu. Another of my favorite dishes to order here is the spinach and artichoke dip. Served warm with a side of thinly sliced toasted bread. So good! This place is also really good at accommodating large groups. It's a large space with a beautiful patio. read more

Found it by accident. Driving by and it looked interesting. Late Saturday afternoon, so we beat the dinner rush. Service was excellent, appetizers were excellent, waiters recommendations were spot on. One of the best pizzas I've ever had. My wife loved her pasta. Will be back for sure. read more

I planned a birthday party for my daughter and her friends. I picked a set dinner menu and requested to have some changes made. They did it without hesitation. They called the day before to confirm the reservation and the day of to confirm meal changes. It was perfect. Stayed on budget. The place is very busy so reservation is a must. The food was great. Definitely a good place. Atmosphere is fun and nice. Highly recommend. read more

Scaddabush - Stuffed meatball and chicken parm - Italian Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Went there twice... First time, it was wintertime, we were seated in the well lit lounge area with a nice view toward the patio... We enjoyed a nice glass of wine with a delicious Italian style pizza... 2nd time, we just wanted to have an appetizer with a drink... We didn't find anything that is interesting in the appetizer menu, do we just had our drinks and left... Service was ok on both times... read more

Went in to have a few drinks with my girlfriends. Server was great, really personable and on top of things for the most part. We ordered beer and a cocktail- saw a few bellinis come out and they looked incredible. I had a Ceasar salad (WAY TOO MUCH GARLIC IN THE SAUCE) and bruschetta. Very good quality overall, salad was editable with lots of cheese. Friend had butternut squash pasta (very good) and we saw the pizzas come out for another table - those looked really great too. Definitely coming back here again - wonderful experience! read more

Scaddabush - Bruschetta - Italian Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

If you're there for dinner, please try their mozzarella! It is amazing. Their pastas are extremely overpriced and do not taste good. I've tried their lobster pasta, stuffed meatball+spaghetti, and carbonara - all underwhelming and expensive. My friend had the beet salad and loved it though. Service is great despite the busy crowds. read more

Beautiful place, with great displays of Italian preserves and pastas and other sorts of mementos. The food seems like it would be awesome! The menu seems diverse and really simple and elegant. They even hand-stretch their mozzarella which is unique and really neat to see. But it's not that great. The mozzarella is really delicious, and has some great topping options. But the rest of the menu is ok. The steak in the steak frites option is small. Like, 4-6 oz, and albeit tasty, a bit overpriced. It's a really nice place to meet friends or coworkers for a drink or a dessert. Try the tiramisu, or the chocolate hazelnut pudding thing. read more

Came here with a group of friends for dinner. We often goto this restaurant but I have not reviewed it. We were a group of 5 that arrived around 5:30pm. Service was excellent but the wait time for food was unacceptable. The food came at about 6:30pm which was a lot longer than expected. Food quality was good, portions are fair and prices are fair. We are likely to come back but I don't have amazing recommendations for it. read more

Had to walk out... Went here on Weds @ 1730 hrs, very empty. Requested to have a seat in a booth in the lounge area. Out of the 4 booths, 1 was in use and the other 3 needed to be bussed. The hostess obliged us and commented that it'll take a moment to clean the table. Not a problem. While my companion and I wait, we notice several other tables that haven't been bussed. There are at least one bartenders behind the bar, and three servers around the bar (casually chatting, I am also assuming one of which is a manager). None of these people are helping bus nor perceived to be actually working. I say "perceived" because they may be talking shop or awaiting a drink order (they're not because there are no chits for the bartender and she is clearly cleaning and doing prep work still). We are seated, and continue to observe the few employees socializing with one another. We go over the menu a few times, and have waited several minutes now (it it wrong of me to have expectations of a SIR Corp restaurant employee greet us and introduce themselves as our server and inquire about drink orders once seated?). Still nothing... By now, my girlfriend and I have made the "wanna leave" eye contact, and we start getting up and are getting ready to leave. The server comes over with a greeting and bottle of water as we are turning to leave. He seems confused but is apologetic in our displeasure and we leave. I expect more from such an established franchise... read more

Went for dinner hear on a Friday night and was placed on the waiting list. We were called up earlier than the time we were told which was good. The waiter was really nice and welcoming. My girlfriend ordered the margarita pizza and a side of three cheese penne and I ordered the chicken parm. We weren't overally impressed with the portion size and my girlfriend being vegetarian was disappointed that the penne had bacon bits in it which was not mentioned on the menu. The biggest positive was probably the food itself, they all tasted fantastic. Would definitely recommend the three cheese penne. read more

I just hosted a work function at Scaddabush and its actually my 3rd time hosting my party there! I usually have over 40 people attend! Colleen has helped me with all 3 functions and is amazing!

I love the atmosphere of this place! The decor is great and the patio is awesome! I love the flowers and plants all around. I wish the food was better! It just seems bland. I feel like my spaghetti and meatballs taste way better than theres. The only dish we love at this place is the artichoke dip! It seemed to have the most flavour! I wish they gave more bread with it though. They only give you four pieces. I think six would be great! read more

Decided to try this place out due to its good reviews. When I entered in, I felt as if I would absolutely love it there. Maybe I set my expectations too high, but I was kind of disappointed. I had the shrimp pasta which was okay. There was nothing too special about it. Along with that, I also ordered the charity bread. I've never tried charity bread before, and this one was really oily. I felt as if they just soaked the bread in oil and served it. For dessert, I ordered the tira misu. But, the waitress had accidentally given me a wrong order (it was chocolate in a jar), and ended up giving me that for free, and wow they're desserts were AWESOME!! I would probably go back just for the desserts. read more

Scaddabush - Italian burger - Italian Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

My daughter and I went to dinner Saturday night at 7 pm, my very first time dining at Scaddabush. We were seated in the patio, which I was very impressed with their set up. We ordered a bunch of shareables, we were enjoying our evening and food until I see it. A mouse running in the patio, getting close to the tables. Then another and another and another. There was at least 5-6 of them that I saw. I even saw one go inside the restaurant. Other customers noticed it as well. Some tables asked to be moved. Others got up and started stomping on the ground to try and scare them away. It was absolutely disgusting, I was horrified. I have never seen something like that in my life. read more

This is your regular pizza, pasta place. Unfortunately I found a hair in my pasta and it really killed it for me. There is too many servers that keep changing at your table. And the place can get quiet noisy read more

Come here often. They have many gluten free options - pasta, pizza. Delicious food. The sangria is to die for in the summer.

We are halal food eaters, and managed to find 3 items on the menu that were halal from cooking process aspect I.e. after asking a few related queries from the hostess. The bruschetta was spot on, haven't had better yet. Crusted Snapper was simply wow, with parmesan and black pepper to top it with. Shows that the chef takes the pain of putting it together .. my wife enjoyed a shrimp pasta, and a salad. The host confirmed with the cook that the utensils used for seafood, are exclusive from other meats .. though asked for a favour to confirm if not. They obliged and seemingly the full house ensured the required customer care. Next time I will be going for their salmon entree. Just a star less, since being in Mississauga for a long time, they should introduce a few more entrees that halal observing Muslims can enjoy too. read more

This was my first time eating at Scaddabush and I must say it was a great choice. Originally I was going to pick a different Italian Restaurant in Square One (named after a well known chef), but after reading quite a few bad reviews about it on line, I decided to try Scaddabush instead. Scaddabush is conveniently located in Mississauga, very close to Square One. The atmosphere was great. Seemed clean, and not too loud. My friend and I went for lunch and the food was delicious. The staff there were very attentive and the food was exquisite. I ordered the grilled salmon which came with roasted potatoes and green beans. It tasted amazing! I also had the Tuscany salad which was also excellent. The flavors in both were spot on. My friend ordered a pizza, and my order showed up first while I was still eating my salad. Our waiter was very friendly and personable and made us feel like guests. About a minute later a 2nd staff member came over to apologize as my friend's pizza was going to be a bit late and she offered to keep mine warm so that both would arrive at the same time. Very nice. The atmosphere (and conversation with my friend) was so lovely we really didn't notice any delay whatsoever. Regardless, a few minutes later, a third staff member came over to let us know that the pizza would be coming out in a minute and that they had "taken care of it" for us since it was late. Amazing! We weren't even complaining about anything and the removed it from the bill! The pizza and my order arrived, and both were absolutely delicious. 5 stars for great service and great food! I would highly recommend this location! Cheers! read more

The food here is absolutely amazing! Definitely my favourite out of all these types of restaurants (milestones .. moxies etc) I ordered two appetizers - the bread with proscuitto and their store made Mozzarella cheese ball + calamari. Both were 10/10! Mouth watering and I wanted more when I finished LOL. I ordered the breakfast pizza as my main, and although I can't handle spice too well, I finished the whole pizza, it was just that good. I had a bit of the pastas as well and they also tasted amazing! The atmosphere inside has a rustic feel, it can get quite busy as well, we had to wait 45 mins but I don't mind waiting if it's for some goood food! read more

So we went here after hearing some pretty good reviews from a few friends. We were here last weekend and the parking lot was packed as this restaurant is across the street from Square One shopping mall. Parking: There is ample parking and we found a spot even during the crazy Christmas shopping season. Drinks: Drinks were very yummy, we had a Blueberry martini and it totally hit the spot! We ordered 2 rounds of the same. Decor: The decor is really awesome and eclectic, liked the way it looked rustic and modern at the same time. Service: Service was great, right from the hostess to our server. Everyone was polite and answered any questions we had. Server didn't always know the answer to our questions but he made sure he got them and we were satisfied. Food: Ok this is why the review gets 3 stars, as the food was just OK. We ordered the calamari (which came soggy and not light and crispy as it should). The charity bread was good for $2. The Margarita pizza was just ok as were the 2 pasta dishes we ordered...and they came out lukewarm. We did tell our server and he warmed up our pasta, but still it was just ok...I make better pasta....this one tasted very bland. Overall, there are better places in the complex you can go to like Canyon Creek. I was really expecting much more from this place....and left a bit disappointed. read more

Sat Night, just showed up at 6:15, had to wait 15 mins. Good Cesar! Had the charity bread, only $2, and for a good cause, as an appetizer. Also the sweet pork bits and a pizza, both are really good, hot, thoughtful, delicious food. We wanted to order more, but we were already full. Very reasonable pricing. Going to come back soon to try the meatballs! read more

This restaurant is a must-try! I've been here 3 times already and going for my fourth trip tomorrow. The dish I would recommend is the Zucca pasta, which is a butternut squash ravioli dish in a creamy hazelnut butter sauce. My only issue with it is if they added two more pieces of ravioli it would be the perfect portion size, but I think the taste is definitely worth it. If you have a big appetite like me then you may want to fill up on the seasoned charity bread that only costs $2 and goes towards local charity. I have also tried their margherita pizza which is made fresh in the pizza kitchen. The ingredients are very good and flavourful, but the crust felt a little charred for my tastes. I love the presentation of the pizza on a wooden cutting board and scissors to cut your slices the way you prefer. I also really liked the calamari as it was seasoned well and had a very good aioli dipping sauce. I would definitely recommend the fresh mozzerella (which is only available between 5pm and 9pm). We got the naked version which comes with sea salt and tomato jam, and my only dissapointment was that they only gave us three pieces of bread with it to split between two people. Nevertheless, the mozzerella itself is a huge portion and extremely tasty. Their service is very friendly and enthusiastic, and on our first night going my boyfriend and I left our server a huge tip. The only issue I had is when the restaurant had just opened and we first came on a very busy night. The wait was long, and it was very odd because they tried to convince us to sit at a table with other people as an option, and seemed confused when we turned down the offer. I'm sorry but I came there on a date with my boyfriend and it would not be a very good experience to sit at a table with a bunch of strangers. This was the only thing that turned me off about the place. Despite that, I have liked everything I have eaten there, and I believe it is all quality food. There may be some flaws here and there, but I think the pros outweigh them and this place provides a very good eating experience. I will definitely become a regular at this restaurant and I liked it much better than the restaurant that was there before called Alice Fazoolis. read more

The charity bread is the cheapest thing on the menu but it tastes amazing! All the items i've tried so far were very good. Pizzas are my favorite. Nice place to take your date. read more

I came here on a Friday night for dinner with some other friends. We didn't make reservations but we asked to be put on the list for both inside and outside (so we could just have our pick when the time came). The weather was so nice so we decided to wait for the patio which was nice cause they had cushions for us to sit on outside to wait. When we finally got in 20 min later we were greeted by our waitress and we all shared a bottle of wine, I had the naked mozerella which was amazing and the zucca which I wasn't sure I would like but it blew me right out of the water it was so good! It was easy for the waitress to split the bill which included splitting the price of the bottle of wine we had. I cant wait to go again! Best Italian food I've had read more
