Mercatto Centrale arrived in Mississauga in 2026 and immediately became one of the most talked-about restaurant openings in the city. Nestled within the beautiful Brightwater waterfront development in Port Credit, this Italian dining destination spans an impressive 8,500 square feet — with indoor and patio seating for nearly 300 guests.
The menu is a celebration of Italian cuisine at its finest. Start with antipasti and fresh seafood platters, move on to hand-crafted pizzas and rich, comforting pastas, and finish with classic tiramisu or seasonal desserts. The kitchen balances beloved Italian staples with modern touches, making every meal feel both familiar and exciting.
Mercatto Centrale marks the restaurant group’s first location outside of Toronto in nearly three decades — and Port Credit’s waterfront is a worthy home. The setting alone is worth the visit: dine overlooking the water with the Mississauga skyline as your backdrop.
A first for the Mercatto brand, the Port Credit location also offers brunch service on weekends — making it a perfect destination for leisurely morning meals as well as vibrant evening dining.
