One star for the convoluted business that it is…read more So I arrived at the restaurant to take my mom out for a fun night of Egyptian food, the restaurant occupied two commercial units thought its very unusual why they don't unify it was one unit. One side is for takeout but patrons are sitting there to dine in and the other side is for dine in, but the employees also do take out. Confusing YES. So I arrived in blindly following a line. I eventually tapped the person behind me, is this the line to get a table. He says no it's the line to order... okay. About 20min in the line I finally get the deal what everyone is doing, they order their seafood order at the front where the precious alive seafood is stored- it's like a pick what you eat counter. So I order their sangarita with a salad and yellow rice and a calamari with no sides (you save like $4 for just skipping that). After ordering she asked if I had a table?? I said no, then she comes out with seven yellow sticky notes and says there are 6 parties waiting for a table. I asked how long? Maybe 40min. She also advises me that i can put myself on the list for a table and she can hold my order up to 45min- they won't start cooking until you have a table. So I asked how long for takeout, she says 20min. Well I did my math, I waited 20min in line, and 20min for food that is not partially cooked so 40min, I can live with that. Watched the server rip the slip, and just fyi the fish was charged at $35/kg costing $60 and the calamari at 1lb was $22. She asked me to wait on the side, saw her put the slip with the raw fish and placed it ON THE FLOOR behind the counter. As I waited on the side I can see quite a number of orders piled in Rubbermaid containers on the floor. Behind the counter I can see the coats of the employees piled up next to what looks like to be the washed cutlery for table service and the employees use the same yellow rag to wipe every cutlery. I also saw employees clear the tables and return to prepare more cutlery- did they wash their hand in the kitchen??? I was then prompt to pay on their pay unit. It prompted me tip. SKIP tip for takeout. Then she tells me it's 2% charge if I pay credit card no charge for debit. So I pay debit. I waited patiently, I stood near the washroom and overheard how a male customer found a $100 bill in the washroom and handed it to the restaurant- they didn't even ask around if anyone dropped it. Then when I had waited 30min (10min past the estimated time, I asked for an update ). They assured me 10 more minutes. Then after 10min I asked again, they said 1min. And then they came out with my take out. The gave me a complimentary hummus for the slow service, but I don't think it made up for the undersized sides they served me. Just look at my pic and look at the website photo. Overall , if you have 2-3hours this is your place. THIS PLACE WAS ABSOLUTELY CHAOS! I'm questioning food stored on the floor even though it's in a Rubbermaid and then that bin placed back on the scale, touched by the gloved hands and potentially cross contaminating food. During the whole time I didn't see anyone clean or mop the floor- what if people are trekking sidewalk salt in the winter. I am really concerned. Eat dangerously here if you want. I do say the food was seasoned well but won't be returning.

A solid, comforting classic.

The wait was an hour and 10 mins. if I had of known I would not have paid and waited but, hey if the food was good why not? Sadly, it was not at all worth the wait. We ordered 1 halibut and chips (which was suppose to come with coleslaw but they forgot to put it in the bag), a medium gravy ( which we were charged 3.50, the bill says medium. We got a watered down small, the fries were undercooked and the fish was greasy and more batter than fish. We put it in the oven when we got home it was so cold . We tried to eat as much as we could not good at all. We will not go back. Big disappointment for such a long wait.

He said I will come back for these and he is right! The chicken shawarma was also very good but could not beat out the philly in my opinion. Place itself is cosy and quiet.

As it was my…read morefirst time here, the staff kindly explained the menu and how to select the fresh seafood to order over the display counter. After selecting a sea bream, the fish was weighed for its price. You can choose between 4 different cooking options. I tried the Singari Fish Platter option for the sea bream, as I felt the way the fish is prepared butterflied would be easier to eat. The flavour of the fish was nice, with the unique spice blend. I also tried the Alexandria Mix Platter and Shrimp Platter. For the Alexandria, I found it to be a great option to share and sample the variety of their seafood selection. The fish fillet was definitely my favourite in the mix. As for the shrimp platter, the grilled shrimps were also very flavourful. However, I did prefer the fired shrimps from the Alexandria better as I enjoy the crunch. In terms of sides, the portions are generous as you get to select 2 options per platter. The fries were surprisingly good. Worth a second visit.

When I walked in? It definitely looked like a British pub! Not a bad thing, right? I was seated at the bar right away and ordered a Lionheart lager. It definitely hit the spot. As I perused the menu, I saw they had shepherds pie! Not the official one with lamb and all that - no, this was ground beef. But when a boy is hungry? Damn! You gotta go for it right? I put in the order, started drinking the beer, and waited about 15 minutes for the shepherds pie to come out. Man, that was one fine, looking shepherds pie! The mashed potatoes had been lovingly put on top and it had a nice little bit of red peppers and carrots and broccolini on the side - oh nice! I took my first bite, and I fell in love. Man, this place hit the spot! If you want a British style pub in the heart of Mississauga? Come here and you won't be disappointed. Next time I'm in the area I will come again.

I came here for my anniversary with my boyfriend and we enjoyed our meal. We made a reservation for around 7pm, and they took us to the patio outside. I personally prefer being seated indoors, as it can get either too hot or too cold in the winter, but it is quite nice when the weather cooperates. The tables are also personally on the small side so keep that in mind if you're planning to order many appetizers. Our waitress was incredibly friendly and served us quickly. We ordered beef tacos to start. We usually get the fish tacos (which are some of our favourite tacos in the city) but we wanted to try something new. These tacos were great and the sauces were amazing. We then had the Burrata Fresco. It was our first time having this as well and we were quite pleased with it. The cheese was super creamy and went super well with the bread. Usually, the mains take a while to come, especially if you come on a weekend night (this was Father's day weekend, so it took a bit longer than usual) Finally we got to our mains. He had his usual, the Chimichurri steak sandwich, and I got a fish and chips, which i had never tried before. His steak was great and cooked really well. I've had the steak sandwich before as well and it was super well seasoned and cooked perfectly. Do keep in mind they only serve it with one slice of bread, though you can add an additional slice to make it a real sandwich. My fish and chips were good as well. The fish was thickly battered and was a little on the oily side but it wasn't bad. It went great with the truffle fries I ordered. The slaw was purple cabbage, which I think I prefer to the green cabbage kind. The restaurant was kind enough to give us a free cheesecake on the side with a cool flame sparkler for me and my boyfriend's anniversary. It was quite good and we thought is was quite generous of the restaurant. Overall, Taps is a great all rounder place to get food with your family or friends. They serve great pizzas here as well and I haven't had a dish I was disappointed with yet. It is on the pricier side, but if you have the ability to splurge, this is a great place to do so.
