Leão d'Ouro

Food was delicious . Restaurant clean and well organized

The monk fish risotto with clams and shrimp was delicious, and the service was great. Great first experience.

I’ve been to this restaurant two times, my partner three times. The first and most important issue is that, due to a lack of visible sign, you’re bound to miss this place when driving on Dundas St. toward East. There are two roads next to each other, and if you’re using GPS like me and my partner, you either take the wrong road—too early—or pass it by—too late. The other issue is the food and the menu. There are simply no vegetarian or vegan options, and you’ll have to try to make a mishmash of several recipes or leave it to the servers and the cook to prepare something for you. The regular menu options are either bland or not cooked properly. I tried the grilled calamari in a white wine and lemon sauce—which had no taste—and the pan seared skate tasted and smelled like ammonia. Now, I’ve had Portuguese cuisine before, and it’s never been tasteless, and I don’t think the ammonia is part of the way of cooking the Skate dish. Vegetarian options: Does not exist. Dietary restrictions: Considering the fact that there are no vegetarian and vegan dishes, I wouldn’t think that is taken into consideration.

Visited for the first time Leao d'Ouro for lunch on Saturday and was highly impressed in every way. The grilled calamari were juicy and tender, a robalo grelhado to perfection, a fresh and tasty tomato salad with delicious sweet onions and olive oil and a Nata de Ceu with a short espresso to finish. The service was exceptionally friendly, professional and with a genuine smile. Leao d'Ouro offers a great Portugeuse experience right in Mississauga. Thumbs up to the team.

Ordered on Uber Eats T bone steak. I literally did the exact same order again, and it was just as good as the first time. Extremely flavorful steak. The cook knows what he's doing. Thank you!

My wife and I were delighted

Dined in for dinner. No reservations on a Saturday night at 8pm. 3 people. We were promptly sat and taken care of. Service was good, food was to be expected of any Portuguese place. Everything tasted delicious in our company and washed it down with a nice Portuguese beer. Sadly we were all so hungry so no pics. Will update 5 star for consistency in future as I will visit again. Love the BBQ chicken.

The staff and food were exceptional! A little bit of understaffing was clear, but bring your patience and it's all worth it!
