Reviews for Mandy's present a mixed outlook, with frequent praise for the delicious flavors, healthy ingredients, and quality of items like the soups and signature salads. However, significant concerns are often raised regarding declining portion sizes, inconsistent food quality, and a price point that many find difficult to justify. Common complaints also highlight issues with long wait times for pickup orders, occasional inaccuracies in food assembly, and an atmosphere that sometimes lacks comfort. While loyal customers continue to appreciate the unique menu options, the overall experience appears to vary greatly depending on the visit, leading to a sense of disappointment among those who remember higher standards from the past.
I ordered food online 10am to pick up at 12:30pm, I arrived at Mandy's & I have to wait more than 25 minutes. They have a huge disorganization with the orders people who arriving to order where serve before me. Moreover I ordered my salad without broccoli & they put broccoli on it. It's my last time I am going to Mandy's at Phillips square. Horrible service. I have only 30 min for lunch time & they make me wait 25 min in his restaurant to pick up a salad that I ordered in the morning. Seriously?
Mandy's used to be a go-to. Fresh ingredients, generous portions, consistency. That's clearly gone.
Now, $30 gets you a carelessly assembled salad made with produce that often looks like it's on its last leg. Portion sizes have shrunk dramatically while prices continue to climb. Shrinkflation is one thing. Charging premium prices while quality visibly declines is another. Mandy's is both.
What's frustrating is how predictable this feels. A business finds success, expands, & somewhere along the way starts prioritizing margins over the actual product that built the brand. Consistency is what keeps customers loyal. Right now, Mandy's is consistently disappointing.
Customers are the reason you were able to expand. People supported your business because they believed the quality justified the price. That trust disappears quickly when repeat customers feel like they're being taken advantage of.
& if you're going to charge luxury prices for a salad, maybe act like a business that actually values its customers. Respond to the negative reviews. Make things right when people have bad experiences. Ignoring unhappy customers, downgrading your ingredients all while continuing to raise prices is tone-deaf.
Spend your $30 elsewhere. I won't be supporting this business anymore.
This Mandy's location is only okay. Please go to their other spots. Ordered The Wrangler because I remembered how good it was a few months ago as its seasonal - the meat I got was supposed to be pulled, it was all clumped together like they just defrosted it. Not worth the price at this location.

Used to live in Montreal years ago so was really looking forward to revisiting one of my favourite spots- was sad to see my favourite salad (the Superfood) is no longer on the menu :( Ordered the endless summer instead which was good too, but also sad there aren't pomegranate seeds anymore. Got my dressing on the side & the bowl was so full that it didn't mix in great. Miss the cup/deli container style packaging. & lastly, vibes in the place were pretty low. Still love my Mandy's, but just not quite the same as I remember!
Mandy's would probably be able to give you more of the non-filler ingredients if they didn't use these these fancy custom paper bags & napkins with your $26 mediocre salad but that's a chain guess.
What a disappointment Mandy's has become . They've halved the size of their salads & upped the price . I never minded paying 30$ for a salad cause it was filling, but now it's just pathetic portion - i made my own salad- walnuts ( maybe there were 4 walnuts, cranberries , like 6 cranberries - tiny amount of lettuce / it's just a rip off - sorry - plus - why are they serving everything with Plastic forks in a tiny cardboard bowl? I was eating IN, not take out
I usually love Mandy's but today was a less-than-ideal experience for me. The staff was friendly but I wasn't asked for my take out (crunchy sesame) if my salad dressing should be separate or together with the salad. I also found that the whole salad had wilted lettuce leaves that affected the taste, & that there was very little salad dressing added. Rather disappointing for a $30 salad. I usually love Mandy's so I hope this branch can do better next time!
My favorite restaurant ever in Montreal. I highly recommend the pumpkin latte & all type of salads they have in their menu. I wish they have a Mandy restaurant in Colombia 🥹😍
Mandy has really downgraded in the past years & is not really worth their price range anymore. Ingredients quality & freshness is sometimes questionnable. They also made mistakes in my last orders & it's starting to be a recurrent issue. Ordered a cesar salad, confirm I want the dressing mixed in & lemon juice on the side. They gave us plain cesar salads no dressing at all... like am I just supposed to eat plain romaine leafs
At least a year ago, I would give Mandy's 5 stars, but something has changed, food isn't as fresh, chunks of stuff that are not mixed well & dressing tastes wierd, options on the menu & selections are limited now, taste not as great, very disappointed,
