| - This place was excellent. We went on a Saturday night in Aug, around 5:30 and it was pretty packed--several big tables of families. Our group had the octopus appetizer, the grouper, and the cod w/egg, potato, and parsley. Everything was delicious and well-prepared. The fish was super fresh, the cod dish was large enough to split, and the octopus was definitely the highlight of the meal.
The setting is nice enough for a date but also not so formal that you feel like you couldn't bring your family. Dining room has lots of light and is a pleasant place to eat. Nice wine selection. Parking is easy. They also offer a takeout menu with chicken, and nightly specials.
My only quibble: I wish they would turn off the TV in the corner (seriously, why does a nice restaurant like this feel like they have to have a TV going all the time? it's something i associate with eating in an airport restaurant or sports bar)
Afterwards, we took a stroll and window shopped at the big Chinese/Vietnamese outdoor mall next door
Would go to Leao D'ouro again for sure,
