3.9 stars is crazy because this place is an absolute 5. I’ve been coming here since I was a kid, now being almost 24 years old. Used to come here late night almost every day with my step dad before he died and it’s a great memory to have walking in here on my own now to grab a bite. Food is amazing and so are the employees. Always loved this place and always will!!

One of the few original charbroiled grill restaurants left in Mississauga now. Breakfast and burgers are very good. Great place to get together with a group of friends and shoot the breeze for a few hours on the weekend. Nice staff.

I really enjoyed this place!!! If you’re looking for a quaint little diner to go to this is the place. My hot dog was so good and I enjoyed how prompt the service was.

Been going to Walleys for over 35 years. Through all the years the food has been exceptional. From a kid to a grown man the food is still very delicious. Especially their steak on kaiser, the delicious home burger and chicken wings are amazing. Best late night spot in Sauga for a bite, a beer and some relaxation. The staff is great and the chefs cook with love . Thanks for being one of the best restaurants in Mississauga for decades.

I've been going to Wally's at Hurontario & Central Pkwy since 1985. In fact in 1987 on a very late Saturday night actually Sunday morning I met my 1st girlfriend who was a stripper. This location was very popular in those days for strippers, Patched motorcycle gang members, bartenders, clubbers, and anyone that wanted chow really late. It may look a bit tired inside these days but the chow remains as decent as it was in 1987. Recently I've been coming here because I'm in the area. The chicken souvlaki dinner is fit for a champ. Doesn't matter what you do for a living or who you are, if you wanna eat like a champ you'll order the chicken souvlaki dinner. And if you came decades in the past like myself, the memories will accompany your chow ! Every bite I take reminds me of Crystal with her natural double D's (1987) ! Wally's is where you wanna go if you wanna eat like a champ !

Best place to order from for your late night cravings. Also the best staff to call and confirm your order. I would recommend this family restaurant for your next meal and if you call them they will be happy to accommodate your needs

Do you miss the 80s? Me too. This place is a time capsule! OG decor from the early 80s. It's all just like you remember it. Friendly staff and excellent atmosphere. The food is good too and the prices are excellent. Highly recommended if you're in Mississauga!!
