Overall, Mandy's is described as a reliable favorite for fresh, flavorful salads with ample customization, big portions, and a bright cozy vibe that makes healthy meals feel inviting; the menu offers vegan, vegetarian, and protein options with the option to build your own bowl and have dressing on the side, and the taste and quality of ingredients receive frequent praise, with standouts like the 'Wild Sage Bowl' and the 'Seared Tuna Salad' getting repeated thumbs up along with popular smoothies. The atmosphere is often noted as chic, Instagrammable, and welcoming, with attentive service and helpful staff who accommodate allergies and substitutions. On the flip side, some reviews point to higher prices, occasional slow service or long waits, and inconsistencies such as missing ingredients at pickup or changes in packaging that impact the experience; a few also call for clearer online ordering communication and better reflection of prep times. Despite these concerns, the overall impression is that Mandy's delivers delicious salads, fresh ingredients, and a sturdy, consistent core that draws locals and visitors looking for healthy, quick meals, even as some visits vary in value and execution.
This is definitely a restaurant with a beautiful vibe. The service was nice, the menus were varied, & the Caesar Salad was very delicious. When you're at the counter you can get a glance at the kitchen & see how they have everything clean & well labeled. I will definitely come back!

Protein Power did not disappoint! Nicely balanced salad dressing with an option to add specific veggies /nuts to your bowl . Green Goddess dressing with fresh herbs is must-try!
My friend introduced me to this place on my last visit to Montreal! I don't know about you, but when I travel, my eating habits are sometimes not the best.... This place had healthy, delicious options!! Could have eaten 3 more bowls of the satay peanut salad, loved it sooo much!!!! Can't wait to go back & try more of their delicious menu items!!

Les salades étaient fraîche. Je suis quand même un peu déçu car, j'ai pris une salade César avec supplément poulet à 6$ & il n'y avait vraiment pas beaucoup de poulet de plus il était coupé en dés.
Unbelievably beautiful dining room for some amazing salads, even if they seem to be on the pricier side - they are worthwhile especially for a vegan friendly option. My friend raved about trying Mandy's & their salads. The economical option is to select one of their pre-conceived choices & then add a protein of choice, which was how I ended up with my Sesame Dressed Salad with Peanut Chick'n. Apparently the soy based one is not vegan which I'm not sure if that's true, but I took the staff's word for it. Once you order, take a seat & wait for the massive salad to appear in front of you. It was one of the best dine-out salads I have had - loaded with fresh ingredients & the option for plant-based protein made it all the better. Not to mention that the venue is just exquisite & really makes you feel like you are in a fairy tale fantasy.
I am literally obsessed with this place. For my Americans, think Sweetgreen's little sister who lives in Malibu. Salads are huge, fresh, & unique. As an omnivore, I looooove the mock chicken here (there are plenty of non-vegan options as well!). The smoothies are also really good, especially the green one! Only con would be it is on the pricey side, similar to Sweetgreen. I do think the salad is larger though, FWIW!
Les salades sont excellentes & nous avons le choix de changer la sauce si nous aimons pas le choix proposé qui accompagne la salade. Le prix est relativement bon.
I chose my own ingredients for the salad, since I'm on a completely raw diet. I loved it! Great dressing, good portion size, very kind staff & fast service. We found a spot on the patio; we needed one more chair & all were taken but the waiter kindly brought out one of the interior chairs. I loved the interior decoration as well. Will visit again when I come to Montreal. The only thing I would improve is make the entrance more accessible, the stairs were rather steep for my friend whose mobility is limited. Adding a hand rail/ramp would be a good idea.

The portions are insanely small for the price. For paying 30$ for a salad you should be full. It wasnt like this in the past but overtime the portions have gotten smaller & smaller. Also, no consistency with the add-ons one item is usually 2x more present than another...
