I have been going there for years. Great vegan food variety. Friendly engaging staff. Highly recommended!
When we are in the Oshawa area, we make it a priority to do take out from this fabulous restaurant (no dine in yet). The chickn shawarma is out of this world! Everything we tried has been delicious though. Alice is so kind, love seeing her. We can 't wait to dine in because the restaurant itself is beautiful.
On top of their menu items, they also have daily specials that rotate on their hot table. They also have baked goods, frozen meals and grocery items you can purchase. My fiancé and I ordered the 3 Item Daily Special and got the Chick’n Shawarma, BBQ UnPork and Cheezy Potatoes for $15 (including tax and tip). We brought it home and used our own rice. This was more than enough to satisfy us both! Everything was delicious, flavourful, and more than we could have imagined! Definitely will be back to try more daily special items!!
Fresh prepared meal was delicious I had the curry chicken with rice. The 2 choice combo came with 1 choice and rice ? Should be called 1 meal option. The freezer food meals like perogi was $16!! The main meal was great. The chess’s spinach puff pastry had a sour taste to it. But it was fluffy , if not for that foul taste I am sure it would be delicious.
I visited Mathilda's hoping to enjoy a tasty vegan meal since they offered many options. Unfortunately, I was disappointed to discover that none of the dishes were gluten-free.

The food at this restaurant is incredible! The selection of dishes offers a fantastic blend of vegetables and plant-based meats. The Thai curry and BBQ pork are among my favorites. Vegetarian options: Everything on the menu is vegan!
Mathilda’s is my go to spot for wholesome, plant based dining, great friendly service and recharging my soul when in Oshawa.The staff are always so cheerful and it’s always great to see Mathilda herself interacting with patrons.If you haven’t tried a plant based diet, ask yourself what are you waiting for? I should add… try a chocolate brownie for dessert, you won’t regret it!
An absolute must-try for anyone who is vegetarian or vegan in the Durham area! I would give it 11/10. The food was incredibly fresh and delicious, and it was refreshing to find plant-based options that go beyond the usual burger and fries. The staff were also very friendly and helpful. This was my first visit, and I will definitely be returning!
Matilda’s is such an amazing place because of the INCREDIBLE food, Warm and welcoming atmosphere and the friendly and helpful people. Changing your diet to be plant based is a huge adjustment, and I know for myself I was really concerned that I would need to give up some of my favourite foods all together, but finding restaurants like Matilda’s that are HEALTHY and DELICIOUS plant based options is so encouraging. I am a return customer and look forward to my visit each time. ?
This is by far my FAV restaurant in all of Durham! Since the first day I walked in I was welcomed warmly by smiles and genuine goodness. Mathilda and her wonderful team go out of their way to accommodate and it’s so awesome to be greeted by name. I have brought all my friends and family (all non-vegan) to try her food, and everyone cannot believe how delicious everything tastes. Her sauces are unbelievably good too! We are so grateful for this incredible gem of a restaurant, we need many more locations across the GTA!!!

Excellent experience and tastes! Mathilda and staff are so friendly, welcoming and passionate about their food. They make food that anyone and everyone would enjoy. We tried a variety of vegan dishes and a GF chocolate muffin, all were delicious, freshand healthy, like home cooking made with love. The space is very clean, open, and inviting.
Food's AMAZING????. Lots of great options and decent portion sizes. The ambiance is very clean and lovely. Staff and Owners are very friendly and accommodating with allergies and dietary restrictions. Will definitely come back for more.??
Everything we tried was delicious. The perfect place to stop on the way to Toronto! The people working there are absolutely wonderful. It made me wish I lived in Oshawa ???? My 3 year old loved it too. She ate a lot and wanted more even though shedoesn?t usually eat much at restaurants ????
So happy to have found a plant-based eatery such as Mathilda's. The food was genuinely delicious, filling and made with intent. I was surprised that Oshawa doesn't have too many vegan places but Mathilda's just changed that opinion for me. The staff wereamazing, friendly and cordial. Fresh food at great prices. Will definitely come back for more!
