Something Sweet 4 U

We eat here almost 2x a month. Delicious breakfast. Friendly staff. Very authentic ! Feels like home !

The only Filipino restaurant in Mississauga where you could sit in without smelling like «ulam» when you leave. Place is clean. Friendly staff. Price is reasonable. They can be very busy and sometimes they ran out– good for them, but as a customer, call ahead esp if you plan to come in near the closing time.
Their TerryFox location is better– more food options but limited seating. TerryFox is only good for takeouts.

This place has the ingredients to become the go-​to sit-​down spot for Filipino food in Mississauga. It’s clean, has ample seating, classy décor, and a wide range of options on the menu. It’s a great spot to take your parents for lunch on a Sunday (which I did), and you wouldn’t be the only one — the place was packed on a Sunday around 12:30 PM.
Unfortunately, a couple of things are lacking. First, there doesn’t seem to be any crowd-​control mechanisms in place to control the lineups that form at lunchtime. While my parents and I came just in the nick of time and grabbed a table before the crowds started arriving, it doesn’t seem like anyone is really around to inform incoming guests that it’s an X minute wait for a table, nor is there really a place to stand wait, so people are left walking around and standing beside your table, hovering, watching you eat, and waiting for you to finish up. Secondly, their Halo-​Halo (dessert) was a 1 star. I pretty much paid almost $ 7 for ice. Very minimal toppings, zero sweetness, and the toppings that did come with it were hard and frozen.
The food itself was delicious (beef tapa was fresh, perfectly marinated and crispy, just the way I like it! Fried Food is my middle name). Although, for the price, at almost $ 8 per plate, portion size was very, very small. Aside from that, the food was great.
Overall, if they could work on their desserts and their restaurant logistics, and you don’t mind the price point, these improvements could really make them a decent go-​to sit-​down restaurant for Filipino food in the west end.

I am a regular customer of Somethin’ Sweet. (Just coz’ its that one Filipino restaurant that in the centre/​heart of Mississauga)
I would say that their dishes are okay.
Sizzling sisig was not listed on their menu but they have it if you order it. Good for 2 – 3 serving ($ 11+tax). But can get a bit dry.
Their ‘all day breakfast’ menu is fair. I always order tapsilog and its a fair serving. But for $ 7.50? + tax? Other filipino restaurant like LunchBox in Brampton has more serving and tastes better for $ 5.50.
Empanadas & halo-​halo are subpar.
However. I LOVE THEIR KWEK-​KWEK (quail eggs coated with sweet & sour sauce). Costs $ 3 for 6pcs.

I’ve only had desserts here and they’re very delicious! Price is reasonable. I’d give them 5 stars but I haven’t tried any of their «ulam» (side dish) yet. So 4 for now.

Very good Filipino resto with very reasonable price. Famous Silog breakfast is available. Very friendly customer service. Braso de mercedes, boat tart, and many more! Will definitely go back

Well I don’t kno much on Filipino food but one thing I know is it shouldn’t be cold. I got the beef stew with rice. Just not my type of dish with too much tendon and flavor was unsatisfying. The warm cold food was a turn off. Also had a banana spring roll which wasn’t so bad. Tho I wouldn’t have it on my own. I’d love to hear what’s good here or in general for Filipino food BC mine was an extreme miss.

The best Filipino dish joint in Mississauga. If you’re looking for an all day Filipino breakfast this is the place. Friendly staff, good food, lots of selection, clean restaurant and prices are fair. Look to taste the Kwek Kwek. It’s their take on this famous street food in Manila. I will be back!

I came right after typical lunch time but also it was during a Tuesday of March Break. There were some people there, a few families, a group of construction workers, and a few mama types just hanging around.
the place is a lot more modern than some Filipino restaurants I’ve been too in terms of design… Let’s call it ikea chic with shades of eggplant on the walls.
I was craving some traditional filipino breakfast and this time I got a tocinolog (rice, egg, and sweet pork) it came with Achara (I’d say it’s Filipino sauerkraut but it’s on the more sweet vs sour side).
I added a halo-​halo drink to it…
The food was good, I was filled and had to force down the last bit but only cuz it was so yummy and I was taught to never leave food on a plate.
I find it odd that the halo halo cost almost as much as a the main meal but the drink was ok… Compared to quiapo quiapo though, even though it was cheaper, the quiapo version was a lot yummier

I love this place! Great for filipino families because there’s plenty of seating.
The food is a bit pricey, but the service is awesome, and so is the plating.
It’s pretty clean and there’s plenty of options on the menu.
You can also purchase items for take home such as small snacks and sweets.
I especially love the cashier /​server Monica! She’s so adorable and sweet!

Building on what Bernie mentioned in his review, I’m amazed at the lack of Filipino food options in Mississauga given its high Philippine population.
When I was younger, I would frequently visit Something Sweet 4 U’s other locations to get small baked goods in bulk, such as their mouth-​watering empanadas. They’ve now progressed and opened a full-​scale restaurant in a strip-​mall plaza littered with other food options such as Wild Wing, California Sandwiches, and Marble Slab Bakery.
It goes without question that the restaurant is popular among the Filipino population, but to be truly successful, the word has to spread a lot further. Why do I believe that this won’t be a problem in the years to come? Because their food is good. Really good.
My first visit to the restaurant was at 9:00am — I was craving a traditional Filipino breakfast. Their breakfast offerings consist of a variety of dishes that end in «-silog». This is a portmanteau of sinangag (garlic fried rice) and itlog (fried egg). So basically, the way it works is you pick your meat to go with your combination of fried rice and egg. All of these breakfast combos are priced at $ 6.50.
I had the daingsilog, which consists of daing (milkfish), sinangag, and itlog. I was highly impressed with the presentation of the dish (check out my pictures to see what I mean). The food was very good — pretty much exactly what I expected. Daing was nice and soft with a crisp outer shell, just the way I like it. Portion size was also great for a breakfast combo.
If I had one gripe about my experience, it would be that their bottled waters are frozen and barely drinkable. Nothing terrible, but just a small gripe.
I still wait for the day that Mississauga can boast higher quality Filipino offerings akin to Lamesa downtown and Casa Manila in the northeastern GTA. Something Sweet 4 U’s newest location doesn’t fit that criteria, but it shows that Filipino food in Mississauga is headed in the right direction.

Wow, this place is disgusting. Bought palabok and they filled it up ²⁄₃^rd of the way. I ordered kikiam and second bite in, I wanted to puke. I spit it out. My mouth is still suffering from the salt. Super salty. Disgusting.

Okay, Mississauga is so multicultural yet I really only see chain restos, Chinese, Japanese and Indian restaurants and some Middle Eastern restaurants. Yet there are very few Filipino restaurants even though there is a huge Filipino population. This place opened up in the Heartland Town Centre food area (i.e. Britannia and Latimer Road).
Décor: ³⁄₅ — very clean and modern
Service: 2.5÷5 — I came here during it’s first week and there were a few kinks, which almost had me running out the door. While the cashier was very friendly, I was very apprehensive when I saw someone cleaning the place with a mop at around 5:30 pm. I figure most cleaning should be done at around 2 – 4 pm, when it’s not prime eating time. The second thing was that when I ordered a combo, it took the cashier a while to figure out why their POS (point of sale) device wasn’t sending the order to the kitchen. She then had to be told since it was a «combo», there’s no need. Despite these two hiccups (which would scare me off if it were a long standing establishment), the cashier was very helpful in explaining what everything was.
Food: 3.5÷5 — okay I don’t remember what I ordered. I believe it was chicken and pork adobo and some type of pork «sausage» with rice. The adobo tasted like a sweet curry chicken, which I thought was okay. However, I really loved the pork «sausage». I wish I could describe or compare it to something, but I can’t. It was a good mix of sweet and salty. In addition, the rice was very fragrant.
Verdict: It’s very different than Chinese, Thai, and Indian food. It’s not spicy. But it has similar curries but sweet. Try it out. Seems like it’s good for takeout and would be great hangover food too.
