Reviews for Mistaan Catering and Sweets Inc. in North York, ON
Went to Mistaan a few weeks ago on a weekend to order some food for lunch with my family. We have been going to Mistaan for more... than 15 years now, but this weekend we tried to order something new. I have a food allergy which is deadly and always make sureto ask wherever I go the ingredients of the food I am ordering. I asked the girl at the counter the ingredients of the one fooditem that we ordered to ensure there was no nuts or lentils, since I am allergic. The female staff member assured us there wereno lentils or nuts in the products we ordered when I asked as well as when my family member asked separately. When I got homeand had the food I had a severe food reaction, and had to go to the hospital. We were notified that my reaction was to thelentils in the food product. When my family member called l and tried to confront them that they gave wrong information, one ofthe owners who picked up the phone screamed at my relative that they were lying and that staff had told us there were lentilsand then hung up. That owner at Mistaan shows no compassion and is just too focused on making money. My family, and I who wereonce loyal customers to Mistaan will not ever be returning. If you have a severe food allergy, please do not order food fromMistaan. They will lie to you about the ingredients just to make a sale and apparently do not care about the well-being of theircustomers. Read more
Great place for Indian food and sweets. The sweets were on the lower side of sweetness, which is perfect for my taste. The... Samosas were simple and on the lower end of spicy flavour, which is delicious for the kids. The prices were reasonable. Therewere several persons who walked in, but it better to order over the phone and come for pick up, if you are ordering a meal.Otherwise it will take some time. You can get it delivered with the leading food delivery apps. Done in option is alsoavailable. Will definitely be visiting more frequently. Read more
Used to like Mistaan but recently the quality of the sweets has dropped. Disappointed to see a good sweet shop cutting corners... on quality. After 20 years of being a good customer have to say will not be coming back. The service is good and friendly. Read more
The best place in Toronto for Bengali sweets. Every time I am in North York, I stop by here for samosa and chai. The savouries... are always fresh. The thing to die for is their sweet selection, everyone is a fan of this small restaurant in North York. Theyalso sell pickles and other snacks. Read more
I got a aloo paratha and asked it to be spicy there were no aloo to be seen in the paratha and the crushed pepper were jus... dumped in it. And its not paratha more like tandoor roti. Asked for ilachi chai its good but too strong. Samosa and pakora aregood but pakora are better is fresh the one i got were cooked a day before seemed like it coz i have had thr fresh ones too.Mithai is good. Read more
Update - came back here few days after labour day for more samosas and sweets. The samosas are now $0.75 cents each ?. Ordered... 1lb of motichoor ladoo- it was good. So came here because I have heard a lot about this place through others - aunties in thearea of course :) ** there was no halal signs so cannot confirm if the meat was halal and I only ordered vegetarian. So - Iordered 10 samosas. 2 Chanda Bhatoora. 0.5lbs of mixed barfi. Bill was $25 The samosas - pretty darn good. Will highlyrecommend. The barfi - was just okay. Maybe a little overly sweet for my taste. But my parents loved it. Overall, Neither sogreat neither so horrible. I mean for $10/lb maybe I was expecting more? Now these channa Bhattura - hardest review to explain.I personally did not like the Channas. They have this different taste that I could not acclimate myself too. BUT the parentsLoved it ??????????? they enjoyed having that different unique masala taste. Maybe hence all the auntie referrals! Bhattura werefresh but oily. Honestly - they should have samplers out front lol The store also sells a lot of items on the side - I wasgoing to grab a few but when asked they seem more expensive compared to just picking them up from another store. Ex. Pani pooribox was $5.00. I can buy the exact same box. Same brand. Same size from Indian grocery for $2.50. There are barely any prices onthe items so you gotta ask. Location was clean. It was busy. Initially the customer service wasn?t that great. Just too busyand trying to accommodate. I made my order first but wasn?t served first. But then once My order was completed. The individualdid apologize. So I do appreciate it. Read more
It was a nice quiet place. The salted lassi was amazing. My search for authentic chole bathure is still on. This one was great... but was more like home made, not the thick dark gravy chole with potato and cheese chunks In it ????. They have some greatIndian snacks including samosas, Spinach fritters and more. If in the area you must give a visit. Read more
The chicken curry and naan was amazing but I wish they had a better customer service. They have a dining space but no water to... offer. The place was not as hygienic either, especially to have food. Went there to have the thali experience but would not gothere again for the dining experience. Read more
