The stars are really for the great chef and good teppanyaki food. Lost stars due to time to serve, staff a little slow, lack of ambiance, dated decor, and the tiniest portion of mall style sushi. I mean tiny but tasted good. Would not recommend or return. Better teppanyaki for this price exists if you look.
Hey family, Here’s an honest review of my visit to Iron Chef located in Mississauga. We visited on December 3rd for dinner with some friends. Below is our experience and I wanted to share it with you. Location/Amenities: .5/1 star Iron Chef is located at Eglinton and Tomken road. It’s not as visible from the main road but you should find it at the back with plenty of free parking available. The parking lot can be a little dim and feels a bit sketchy but we were able to find the restaurant. Staff: .5/1 star We entered the establishment and unfortunately weren’t greeted until 10 minutes while waiting at the door. Once we were greeted they asked us if we wanted take-out, traditional dine-in or the teppanyaki experience. We chose the teppanyaki experience and shared it with another family. By the time we sat down it was another 20 minutes before we chose our toppings and they brought out the food. Service: 1/1 star Once the chef came out and greeted us, service resumed like normal and we were really happy with the service they provided. They brought our appetizers, drinks and cleaned up our dishes fairly quick so we could enjoy the main dinner. Food: 1/1 star The food was cooked right in front of us and was absolutely delicious.We enjoyed a variety of different meats, seafood, vegetables and rice. It was cooked to perfection and have nothing bad to say. Wow factor: 1/1 star Teppanyaki can be a very fun experience whether it’s a date, with family or a group of friends. The chefs are talented in their craft and will definitely entertain any audience. This is huge in the dining industry and creates a fun, unique experience. I recommend everyone try this at least once. All in all we genuinely had a great time and I would strongly recommend this restaurant for anyone in the area. Overall based on our experience I give it 4 out of 5 stars. Until next time…..
Probably one of the worst dinner experiences of my adulthood. Booked a reservation for 8:30pm. Upon arrival they were unable to seat as because the table was not “ready”. However once we were finally seated at around 8:40pm, there was old food all over the ground and table. The hostess said “she didn’t know the ground was a mess,” and attempted to sweep up the mess. But we probably should of just left after that because it went downhill, FAST from there. When we asked to switch seats she told us that “the view was better where we were seated.” The place as filthy like absolutely disgusting and I couldn’t believe the lack of care. Old food stuck to my boyfriends plate, lip stick all over my glass, dirt on the utensils. Everything about the place was unkept, cringeworthy, and borer line a health hazard. Our server however was incredibly sweet, but the service was slower than molasses and our food was slightly overcooked. Also our chef bless his heart, kept leaving to grab missing items and ingredients. Don’t see us returning here ever. Sad, because we used to frequent this spot pre-pandemic but never again.
This place has past its prime. The last time I had went was 2011. Same decor, same paint colors. Half the ligh bulbs around the cooking area didn't work. Our chef wasnt energetic and didn't do many tricks. He was funny and the food was tasty. Thus the three stars but for the price there are alot better hibachi options out there. It was a pleasure to take my kids out for dinner to a hibachi style resturant for the first time but due to the lack of tricks, the chef was unable to keep their attention. The staff is amazingly friendly, just expected more from a dinner "show" as other chefs were engaging with thier audience, tossing food, performing alot of tricks, spelling things on the grill. Unsure if I would return.
We had to book a reservation for teppanyaki a week in advance but it was worth the wait! The food was delicious, affordably priced and the service was fantastic. Our chef was engaging and kept our party of 6 entertained. Do not let the exterior of the building scare you away. It does not look very inviting but the inside was very comfortable and more importantly very clean. I would highly recommend this place and look forward to going back!
I’ve been going here for YEARS. I’ve done the teppanyaki table, regular dine in, UBER Eats and pick up. Food is always consistent and made very well! I usually get one of the dinner combos and sometimes the sushi. For sushi, they are decent. Not the greatest but definitely good enough to get your sushi fix. Their dinner combos are the best! So tasty and worth it. The portions are massive! I’ve tried all dinner combos and I can say that they are all very good.
My family and I are regulars at Iron Chef. We order take out at least once every other week and are always happy with the consistency of the food. The food is always fresh and delicious and we have never had any issues with the quality of the Sushi or Sashimi. The owners and other staff are always extremely friendly and helpful. Make sure to try their salmon sushi pizza and the chicken katsu. Honourable mention to the ginger salad dressing.
I came here for a date with my fiance, we sat at the tepanyaki table. We loved it, the food was delicious and the entertainment was top-notch. I thought I might get overheated, but I didn't, you don't feel the heat of the cook top at all. Oh and you really must get the fried rice with your meal!Food: 5/5
A little old in appearance, but makes up for food taste and friendly service. We were 2 families both with child under 2. The friendly staff took good care of us and the chef was entertaining even for the children.Food: 5/5
Place is awesome. Food is great a reasonably priced. Only thing is the chef are not consistent. There is one chef there that is super duper entertaining and the others that i saw are ok. Also, i didn't really like their mixed drinks But still very worth it.
