Master Steaks Ltd., located at 5895 Dixie Rd., Mississauga, is a family owned and operated Restaurant & Butcher Shop that was built in 1977 by Gregory Ioannidis.
Time and again my friends and I visit here for the cheap food, beer (2.10 draft) and 11.30 after tax for a steak. The older cashier at the counter is a piece of work, she's rude, but calls you "dear" at the same time. The new younger girl is great. Makes you feel like you matter. Definitly going back. If you have a lot of friends and just want some cheap steak, go for it. I mean, where else can you get a 24 ounce porterhouse steak at 2 in the morning after a night at the bar, did I say it was only 18.99? Which by the way they have one of those attached to it... and you can order food in there too! So if you want the sit down feel just order in there.
Depending on what you order is what you get! Don't put dressing on the salad, definitly order it on the side.. mine got all soggy. Gravy is fantastic. Rice is gross, never get the rice. The french fries are where its at... lots of them!
Definitly truck stop, self serve diner type place.
Go, try for yourself.
I've been there several times. They have great Rib steaks and T-Bone.
I admit that their quality can be inconsistent sometimes. But you're paying a 16oz steak meal with sides for $10-$16 for something that is worth at least $25+... it's say it's near the 30s..
It's just slightly below The Keg, but it's half price.
The Keg could easily mistake you with a steak from Master Steaks, and you wouldn't notice.
Add 75 cents for hot mushrooms or onions.
It's self-serve.
Extremely good value.
This is a great place to satisfy late night steak cravings. The best thing about this place, I must say is the price..
For about 11 dollars, you get a midsize steak, and a side dish (salad or potato)
The food was ok.. atmosphere could see some improvement.. pricing was great..
Good place to come with close friends.. but not a good place for a date or family dinner..
Burgers, chicken strips, wings, fries are your typical diner/pub fair. Well prepared and tasty when you are really hungry after a hard night's work ;)
In fact the atmosphere really does feel like a "trucker's pit stop"
If you are looking for a romantic setting with your significant other... perhaps this might not be the right place..
Its just a simple diner to order, sit and eat.
The steaks themselves go really well with beer.
One thing that needs mentioning is that the portion of fries that come alongside your sandwiches are HUGE!!!
So either you should be on a very empty belly... or you should ask for a take out container when ordering anything with fries.
Finally the counter staff attitude.
The counter staff are actually not that unfriendly as long as you don't try too hard to play "buddy buddy" with them. The trick is to be polite but straight to the point. Order, be patient (sometimes it takes awhile till your number gets called up) and say your thank you's.
Master Steaks seems like a pretty busy diner. The staff are probably not frustated in appearance for the sake of it. Good chances are they work long hours and are doing their best to cope with the fast paced bustle.
If you are looking for a beautiful view of the sunset and romantic music in the background... keep searching... this most likely aint it.
However if you just got off your shift and are grumbling for some decently prepared pub diner fare... this might just be the place for you and your work mates.
I will not be returning to this resturant. The lady behind the counter makes you feel like you are a nuisance and that you are on her last nerve even though you are being completely polite. There are notes,signs and prices marked up everywhere which can be confusing for the customers. Not for the people that work there of course which is most important to them.
The atmosphere made me lose my appetite. It is not the cleanest place. There was some guy that walked through with a dirty apron and then the counter lady went through with a cleaning cart.
The steak was good. The rest wasn't. The onion rings were odd tasting and sweet? The salad was wilted and slimy with 8 croutons. The potatoes were served with some sort of sauce that got mixed with the bloody juice from the steak which is not exactly appetizing. Our plates were on trays that were shedding a film because I guess they were so old. Oh and the few vegetables we got were obviously frozen and not completely cooked through.
I just think anyone would be better off buying an expensive steak at the grocery store and making their own side dishes.
