Family Owned & Operated Since 1981
Originating in the heart of Little Italy in downtown Toronto, our restaurant made its name on good service, a family atmosphere, and great food. The Santos family opened the restaurant in 1981, bringing their traditional recipes from northern Portugal. It is our commitment to authenticity that helped Leão D’ouro become a staple on College Street until it relocating 2007.
A Fresh Start
Along with the move, the restaurant’s cuisine also went through an evolution. After years of serving only traditional northern Portuguese cuisine, the family wanted to fuse their favourite recipes from other cultures into their signature dishes. This gave way to the modern Leão D’ouro – authentic Norte Portuguese cuisine with a mixture of southern Portuguese, Mediterranean, and Canadian fusion.
