50 Best Italian Restaurants in Mississauga

“Shoutout to Minhaj at Scaddabush 🙌 From the moment we walked in, he made us feel welcomed and taken care of. Super professional, friendly, and always had a great attitude even when the place was busy. You can tell he really cares about the guest experience and keeps everything running smoothly. Definitely someone who sets the tone for the restaurant.“

“Had dinner with friends last night. The food was incredible. Drinks, apps, entrees so delicious!!!! Service was top notch. The atmosphere was amazing. Even my picky daughter loved it. They made her a special pasta that wasn’t even on the menu. Love this place. Will come back soon. Must try!“

“Had a the most amazing time taking our firneds out for dinner here. The food is top notch and absolutely everything on the menu is delicious. We had 4 kinda of pasta, a pizza, some appetisers and a few cocktails (and we all love to share our food) so we tried a healthy mix of everything they have. The Lobster Ravioli and Giardino Pizza especially stood out for us. The Lavender French 75 spritz was also very refreshing.

Our total bill was approx $200 which we found great value for money.

We do not believe in the North American culture of tipping generously for someone to do their job. The server (Makayla) was absolutely lovely and didn't pressure us into doing that. Her recommendations and attentiveness during a busy Friday night were commendable.

Will definitely go there again a hundred times!!

If going on a weekend (eve) most definitely make a reservation :)

PS- the Patio is much better (and cuter) than indoors.“

“lovely restaurant, delicious food“

“great service! delicious food! a must try!!“

“The Paint Master team came in for lunch and had an amazing time. We had the most delicious veal sandwich we have ever tasted! If you’re in the neighbourhood, stopping here is a must!“

“This restaurant is very good, clean and hygienic, and the food is delicious“

“Amazing ambiance, great location & delicious food! Can't be beat!“

“This place is all about the movie of the same name. It has details of the movie and actors all over the place (literally!). It's a nice and cozy italian restaurant. The wood oven pizza is delicious and the pasta is really good too! Staff is not that friendly and not very attentive, but service is alright. They have specials, happy hour and specials and a menu for kids.“

“Not Exactly Traditional Italian with the style of how it’s cooked but the food is ALWAYS filling, and I’ve never had a complaint or brought someone who’s complained before!

I tend to order the Carbonara, Garlic Bread w Cheese, and the Artichokes with Tiger Shrimp instead a cream sauce! That App is an absolute 10/10 SHOW STEALER!

Friends I’ve been with have ordered Seafood Linguine (Was told it was great), Lasagna (very good and layered well!), Bruschetta (good for the table), and the Farfalle Polo Affumiciato is something I ordered more recently and was pleasantly surprised!

This is a business that’s been in the heart of Streetsville for many years and it’s clear to see why!

If you’re into Italian-American style food in a very personable and intimate restaurant. This is your best option in Mississauga!“

“Our recent family gathering at La Scala for a little girl's birthday was made exceptional by the fantastic food and the outstanding service provided by Angel. Angel's warm and attentive approach, coupled with her menu expertise, ensured a seamless and enjoyable dining experience for our entire party. The food at La Scala was simply exquisite, and Angel's recommendations showcased her passion for the cuisine. Her ability to strike the perfect balance between professionalism and friendliness added an extra layer of joy to our celebration. In the midst of a bustling restaurant, Angel's dedication to service truly stood out. La Scala is fortunate to have such a personable and skilled waitress on their team. If you're looking for a memorable dining experience where service is as outstanding as the food, I highly recommend Angel at La Scala. Thanks again, Angel, for making our family celebration truly special.“

“Was in town to pick up parts. Heading back home and saw this truck. OMG, we had the chicken panini and we both loved it. Next time we're in town we will definitely stop by to try something else on the menu. Maybe franchise it and open one in Ottawa! Just sayin' ?“

“Handmade, delicious meat sauce! The staff are very friendly. Excited to try more of their dishes!“

“Great ambience, amazing and tasty dishes, very well plated as well. Considering the fact that the restaurant was at full capacity, the food did not take long to come but it took a long time for the server to come over. Not their fault though, they looked under staffed. I wish they had one or two more staff taking care of seating and ordering.“

“One of the best chicken risotto i've ever had. Homemade, fresh, and made with love. Stephano (the owner) seems to be a stand-up guy. Great Pandemic service and i expect regular service to be even better! Highly recommend.“

“I ordered the chicken quesadillas and my mom, who is a senior, ordered grilled cheese and french fries. We were absolutely, over the hill, happy with our order. The food was hot when it reached our table. The food was absolutely delicious, my mom enjoyed her grilled cheese and french fries, and I enjoyed my chicken quesadilla. The only thing I can suggest is to ensure that your patron always have more than a half glass full. This is good for tips, and this is good for sales. Other than that, everything was superb.“

“I absolutely recommend Dalmoro’s Fresh Pasta To Go.. the freshest pasta that one can ever find in Toronto. their pesto is my all time favourite. Their housemade classic Tiramisu and Nutella Tiramisu deserves a special mention !!!“

“Thank you everytime I ordered never disappointed“

“Family friendly.. customer service friendly.. fabulous food made by guys in the back...from the guys homemade soups..comfort food..come out and enjoy a Streetsville gem...“

“Mario's catering menu is pretty vast and food quality is great. I have order their catering service since 2017. He has look after some of our family and friends events. Mario has accommodated menus from 10 ppl to 50 +ppl and consistency has always been there. Also, all his staff have always been friendly and respectful.“

“We wanted to have a small and quaint wedding for under 50 people and wanted a venue that felt like home and the Red Spoon Restaurant was the place. Nadia, the owner, took great and kind care of our needs and requests. She was very flexible and accommodating when providing her services. The food was very good with many options, and she gave us the option of using her décor entirely, using some of her décor and bringing our own. We were able to create the ambiance we desired. The venues’ pricing is great, and Nadia worked with our budget! We are hoping to have an anniversary party in a year! We had a wonderful time and do highly recommend the venue! Thanks Nadia!“

“Awesome seafood risotto! Great service!“

“Once you’re inside, there’s inmediately a friendly atmosphere from the staff at the counter. It gets better when you’re seated at your table because the servers create an even better customer experience, making you feel at home. Aside from the great food they serve, this experience matters most for me to come back and recommend. Highly recommended!“

“Very good the best location I ever seen in my life in 20 years in Canada and 18 years live in Mississauga. I never see if we like this and very good ways and the way they serve it for you. They will ask you are you gonna take out or do you want to eat it here? If you eat it here they’ll put it in the plate and they’ll give you sauce.“

“The best pizza pizza in the GTA. It's the cleanest restaurant/pizza pizza I've ever seen, great service - friendly, nice, kind and helpful, amazing atmosphere and the pizza is absolutely incredible. 10/10 in every aspect. I highly recommend coming here. You won't be disappointed.“

“First time dining here ! Exceptional service food was wonderful. Large portions. Friendly service. We will be back. Fully recommend Rogues ❤️🍷🍷“

“Pizza Pizza never disappoints! The food is always fresh, hot, and delicious
especially the classic pepperoni and those signature garlic dipping sauces. What really stood out this time was the service: the staff were friendly, efficient, and genuinely seemed to care about the customer experience. My order was ready quickly and exactly as requested.

Whether it’s a quick bite or a late-night craving, Pizza Pizza always delivers quality and consistency. Highly recommend for anyone looking for great food and top-notch service!“

“I was impressed with an employee named THULASI in Fresh Market Restaurants in Square One. Outright , she approached us to get our orders and when she found out my brother's bday (from USA) that day, she led us to the tables, got a group to sing him Happy Birthday with some other employees and a FREE BIRTHDAY CAKE WITH CANDLE to my Brother's delight. God bless you and I was so thankful to GOD for Ms THULASI. I pray she gets the REWARD she deserves for her excellent service towards us, in Jesus Name! God bless FMRestaurants esp. Ms. THULASI for excellent service! This company needs more like you as an ASSET to the company: perfect customer service and very encouraging & inspiring!“

“We hosted my sister's baby shower here and all I have to say is AMAZING. You will be in the best hands if you choose to host your event here. Fiorina is incredible. A true gift to the hospitality industry and such a pleasure to work with when planning all the details. We couldn't have asked for better communication. The food was perfection. All of our guests raved about the food and how authentic and delicious it was. The serving sizes were fantastic and no one left hungry... In fact, many took home food! (Which was an appreciated touch) Sue helped with serving the event and she was stellar and the owner himself was right in the front lines mingling with my guests, sharing his stories and working his butt off. He truly cares about his business and his customers. We can't say enough about how wonderful our day was and whole heartedly recommend Il Porcellinos for your next event or meal out. Thank you so much.“

“We had our daughter’s Holy Communion reception at the restaurant on Sunday April 28th 2024. I love that we had the entire restaurant to ourselves as they only open for private functions on the weekends.The owners (Kim and her Husband whose name I neglected to get) were so accommodating. They were kind and courteous from the start.Our servers were friendly and very attentive. Our water glasses and wine glasses were filled continuously. We also had access to a full bar.The food was spot on. I have zero complaints and our guests were just a thrilled.I won’t lie, the bill was about $500 higher than we anticipated. It’s an expensive place however we had a wonderful function and we’re happy all around.“

“I had the opportunity to eat at the Eastside Marios in the Heartland location and was very pleased with the experience there. The food is always great at any Eastside Marios location but it all comes down to service. Not all location has great service, but you do get one of those times where you have an outstanding service. Today Michelle (employee # 216) was outstanding. She was friendly and always has a smile when she asks if we were ok and need anything from her. She is very attentive to her customers and very polite. I would definitely go back to this location and would ask for Michelle again to look after us with our visit.“

“The minute I was on the phone with Stephanie, I knew she would take care of us. She provided excellent menu choices for our party of 10. All items were perfectly packed when we picked up, especially the individual soup & desserts. Everything was delicious, we even had leftovers. This was not our first time ordering catering from My Secret Kitchen, each time it seems to get better & better!“

“Great experience every time at this Pizza Pizza! The pizza was made perfectly, with fresh toppings and a crispy crust. Service was quick and the staff were polite and welcoming. You can tell they care about quality and customer satisfaction. One of the best Pizza Pizza locations around!“

“LOVE the delicious lasagna, veal and chicken parmigiana. The cannolis and Zeppole were so YUMMY 😋“

“Love it! Tried it for the first time today. When I walked in I was immediately accosted by the most delicious scent of homemade Italian food. I ordered the hot chicken sandwich and I was not disappointed. I will have to go back to try more on the menu!
The service was really great, super friendly. Prices were fair.“

“Great evening and dinner.“

“Lester is amazing! I always come in and order the walk in large cheese special, he greets me with a smile and makes me feel welcome in the store. If you're in the area I would definitely recommend coming by Panago and ordering a take out pizza for yourself.“

“I payed $16 for 10 wings and only got 9… and it was already expensive… and the workers were quite rude as well. I respect them working late but they should try to be nice. I want a refund for what’s missing

EDIT: they compensated me through email, I changed my rating for the good customer service to 4 stars :)“

“Tried the margarita pizza. It was hot, the ingredients fresh, tasted great, wasn’t greasy, and didn’t make me feel bad after the fact. Top that off with incredible customer service, and reasonable prices, and you have a winner. My go to place now.

Only thing I’d change is make the garlic sauce more creamy. It was a bit runny.“

“This place was absolutely amazing. It's a pretty good value for what you get, the mac and cheese is seasoned so well, and their sauce options are all great. It's definitely a must try soul food spot for Mississauga! I recommend the loaded mac or the loaded jerk chicken. There's lots of seating inside. Service was fast and kind with good suggestions for food choices.“

“Most delicious cakes, dessert and freshly made Italian food in the area 😋 the service is top-notch 5/5 😍“

“I had an amazing experience at Pizza Hut, all thanks to Arshdeep! She was incredibly friendly, professional, and made sure everything was perfect from start to finish. Her warm smile and positive attitude made the visit extra special. You don’t often come across staff who genuinely care about your experience—Arshdeep is definitely one of them. Keep shining and delivering that top-notch service!“

“A Fantastic Italian Kitchen! You will quickly come to adore Pomodoro. The moment you walk in your greeted by Nim and always acknowledge by the boys in the back who always cook up perfect pasta.

Flavourful food presented eye deliciously mouth watery and aromatically an adventure.

A must-visit for anyone craving truly great Italian food. Prepared the way you enjoy it.

“The Quality and Taste of Shawarma is amazing, Mr. Peter was professional, pleasant and guided us about the special snacks. I would highly recommend this shop, its clean, spacious and has positive vibe. I recently went their second time Sonia and Feras were really kind and offered great shawarmas“

“LOVE the delicious lasagna, veal and chicken parmigiana. The cannolis and Zeppole were so YUMMY 😋“

“Friendly staffs.
I’m very grateful to Malik for his assistance in recovering my driving license, which had accidentally fallen beneath the refrigerator. I truly appreciate his professionalism and willingness to go above and beyond. Highly recommended. And of course the pizzas were great too.“
