Reviews describe Mandy's as a bright, stylish spot offering healthy, customizable salads, soups, and smoothies with fresh ingredients, standout dressings, and generous portions that many feel justify the price, along with friendly, attentive service and a pleasant atmosphere; some visits note slower service, smaller portions, or price increases, and a few experiences mention packaging or pickup glitches and meals that miss key ingredients, but the overall vibe is that the salads are delicious, satisfying, and great for a quick, healthy bite or a casual meal with friends.
I'm originally from Vancouver & the salad bars are amazing there. Having said that, there aren't many options in Old Port & I've given this Mandy's location four chances now & each time it's so disappointing. Today was the last straw. Please have a look at my photo…I'm sorry but if I wanted to eat whole pieces of lettuce like a rabbit, I could've just gone to the grocery store & bought a head myself. Not only was it unappetizing, I picked out 5-6 whole pieces of lettuce, the tortilla chips were whole size chips that I had to use my hands to eat & I paid almost $30 with tip for this atrocious thing. Am I crazy for thinking this is disgusting?! Mandy's needs to pay a visit to Vancouver or LA & see what a good salad looks like. Never again.
I've been here a few times & the salads are great but the service is insanely slow. Took 20 min just to get to order at the front counter & then 40 minutes to get a bottle of dressing from them

Blown away by the salads here. I got the sesame & added chicken- absolutely delicious. Everything was so fresh. The atmosphere is also wonderful, very cute vibes. A little expensive but it was so worth it!
Great salads. Lots of options if you have allergies or dietary restrictions. You can pick premade salads or build your own bowl. Food was delicious & prices are reasonable.
I loved this place. I had a salad here on my first day in the city, then came back every day until I left. Actually, in the last days, I changed the unit because I was embarrassed. But they're all equally great. The reason for my addiction was the Wild Sage Bowl with the mushroom soup. Top 3 best salads I ever had in the world.

Delicious, fresh salads & super friendly staff! Everything was well-prepared & full of flavor, loved the whole experience at Mandy's. Highly recommend!
We were on a driving trip to Quebec City & stopped in Montreal for half day to see the historical sites. For lunch we went to several places we researched from home & easily picked Mandy's . Everything was great. Good service, good food & interesting atmosphere. Inside & outside seating but inside definitely better. Pretty crowded today but tables turn over quickly as many customers seemed to be locals. A real fun place. Highly recommended.
Délicieuse salade en cette soirée chaude ! La portion était parfaite & l'endroit est vraiment mignon. Une belle découverte quand on ne veut pas manger quelque chose de trop lourd ! 🥗

The summer salad at 22 dollars had to be ordered & pre paid indoor at the cash & then I walked out with a table tag & half an hour later the salad was served . The white wine was priced at $35 a bottle . It was a warm day but we were lucky to flag a waiter who brought water . Nobody asked if we wanted an ice bucket Nobody poured our wine . Why did I prepay the tip? I guess the restaurant serves locals . Because Ina regular restaurant the waitress takes the order gets the wine gets the ice bucket gets the water & double checks that everything is ok . I was told later that there are salad recipes with more protein . Ok. Next time I will take the salad with some tofu. The indoor diningroom is nice. Next time I will eat indoors. Have a good summe
Seared tuna salad was expensive, $30, & undercooked. An underwhelming experience. When I asked if the tuna could be cooked further they said'no'. It was raw...
Nice salad place to enjoy a quick coffee & salad.
Many choices of Salads to choose & the salad dressing is really good.Fresh ingredients, decent quality & portion.
My server Kelly at Mandy's Old Port location made my day. Her warmth & care are just as nourishing as the salads. She represents everything Mandy's is about-feel-good food & feel-good vibes. If you haven't treated yourself to a Mandy's moment yet, this is your sign.
THE salad spot
Sure, you may be paying a premium price. But for the quality of ingredients & portion, the service, & atmosphere, it is definitely worth it. Mandy's is not necessarily an'on-the-go' spot, it's an experience. I hadn't been here in a while & used to be iffy about the service in certain locations. However, the service was perfect this time. I had the seared tuna salad & it was crazy delicious. Mandy's is just an IT girl point final
