满江红 Red Lotus Restaurant

I had a very enjoyable meal here with a group of friends! The ambiance of the restaurant was very nice and clean, and most of the dishes tasted great! We did note that the fish tasted very oily, almost to the point of tasting deep-fried. I thoroughly enjoyed the stir-fried green beans, as well as the braised pork. The fried noodles were also tasty. I can see why my friends are a fan of this restaurant and I see myself bringing my family here sometime.

My family and I have been coming for over 15 years. We always order the spicy pot sliced fish. The food is pretty oily and salty and many of the dishes are spicy, but it tastes pretty good! Bathroom trips afterwards can be a little rough but I think it’s usually worth it :^)

Red Lotus Restaurant has the best dry hotpot by far. The flavors are bold, spicy, and perfectly balanced, with just the right amount of heat and seasoning. Every dish is packed with fresh ingredients and cooked to perfection. It’s the kind of place that keeps you coming back for more. If you love dry hotpot, this spot is an absolute must-try.

My wife and my favourite place to bring my in-laws while in Mississauga. Chinese food is their absolute favourite and this restaurant is a sure winner. The chef must be very experienced as they serve very well cooked and delicious Sichuan dishes. The cumin beef and sweet and sour chicken are stand out dishes, but we typically enjoy everything we order. There’s also a bubble tea shop on site which makes this place great for local hang outs as well. Good stuff!

Red Lotus is an old favourite in the plaza filled with great restaurants. From the countless times we ordered take outs during the Pandemic, to late night cravings, this restaurant is a solid choice. Sweet soy chicken is a favourite dish. The chicken pieces take some time to dissect with the bones included, along with chestnut pieces to round up the dish. Spicy fried chicken is also a great, solid Szechuan dish, if you can avoid the mala peppers. In the last trip we also tried the eggplant dish. It was so flavourful, great with steamed rice. The sliced pancake is also an amazing and unique alternative noodle dish if you're craving for that. You order your food from your phone using QR code. Many servers do not speak English well. I had no issue having my water filled, but flagging for service might be difficult during busy times.

Enjoyed my visit here. While many of the dishes contain some spice, there are non-spicy options. Expect a hearty and heavy meal of dishes with rice. Good value for money.

The fish with pickled vegetable stew 酸菜鱼 is delicious! The cold noodles were also amazing.

This is the first time I've seen the owner argue with customers. There is no policy in the menu regarding limits for the daily specials. We've ordered more than one daily special before without any issues. You should check how other restaurants handle their daily specials. If you don't want to continue the promotion, then just remove it. This feels cheap.
