I had lunch today at Galito's Flame-Grilled Chicken. You choose what you want from the menu above the cash and then order and pay for it. They bring it to you when it's ready (it took about 10 minutes). I ordered a 1/2 chicken with mild sauce and corn on the cob as my side. The chicken was just okay ... kind of on the small side. The corn was just okay too ... it seemed like it had been soaking in water for a while and then put on the grilled to heat it up and char. The staff weren't very friendly. read more

Not bad not bad at all. Other than going on a weekday and there's closed! At six! So tried again but called fist. They're open! Woohoo! Got a full chicken towndies and garlic bread. Bread wasn't bad. Rice as very nice. Perfect yellow rice goes well with chicken. Classic mini potatoes but slightly underdone. Chicken was proper. Grilled juicy cut up loved it. Some of my favourite chicken. Sauce is okay. Tasty but not spicy more tangy. I enjoyed it. One of those business that only hire one gender and race which is ridiculous but welcome to Toronto! read more

Flavourful chicken and side dishes. Reasonably price for the portions. The restaurant looks old and is located in a plaza with a lot of parking spaces. It's not dirty but some tables were not cleaned and were left for awhile even after the customers left. read more

Loved the food here. Everything from the service to the taste was top notch. This was by far the best peri peri style chicken I've ever had. Would definitely come back . read more

Galito's Flame Grilled Chicken - Half chicken with salad - South African Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

I've been eating out a lot recently so had decided yesterday morning that my lunch would be just fruit. Then I got a notification about a Galito's Groupon, so what's a girl to do? The deal was $13 (+ taxes) for 1 whole chicken, 2 breadsticks, and 1 large side. You order/pay upfront and then the server brings the food to your table. Garlic and Hot Peri Peri sauces are available to use as you wish (and they are delicious!). The chicken was juicy and marinated well. In terms of the quality of the food, I don't think it's a whole lot different than the other Portuguese-style chicken places we have here (and I generally enjoy them all other than the odd time it's not as fresh or portion is smaller), but the service here was notable for this kind of quick-service restaurant. The manager taking the order asked if I wanted white meat only. I prefer white meat and it's never been suggested as an option to me before, so I happily took it. Mid-meal, the server checked-in asking how we were liking the food. At the end, another associate noticed that we were done eating but had leftovers so she asked us if we needed a takeout container. Again, for a fast food style restaurant, this was impressive. read more

Galito's Flame Grilled Chicken - 1 whole chicken (white meat) with large side of fries - South African Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Came during a busy lunch service, but was served reasonably quickly. They have lunch specials and I opted for a double leg lunch, which comes with rice and roasted corn on the cob. My partner ordered chicken kebabs and a mixed green salad for a side. The orders came out in due course, starting with the corn and the salad. The corn was perfectly cooked, slightly charred in spots but not overdone. Thoughtfully came with a butter packet. The corn didn't disappoint, it was fresh and sweet. Tasted the salad my partner had and the dressing was quite zesty and had great flavour and the greens were fresh. The chicken came and although a bit smaller than I expected, the peri peri marinade and crispy skin were bursting with flavour. The rice complimented the dish well although it was too much to finish in one sitting an do took the rest home. They also had cakes and desserts on display but sadly we were too stuffed, but will be certain to make a return trip. Overall this location is great, lots of space, even a separate dining room for larger groups. The food and counter service format is comparable to a Nando's, but I think they do it just a bit fresher and quicker here. read more

Galito's Flame Grilled Chicken - Dining room - South African Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Ready to eat a horse or rather a chicken after spending the entire day at Canada's Wonderland and another hour getting out of their fricking parking lot. Friendly and fast service and none of that weird sit down first and then go up and order nonsense of Nando's. Very similar menu to Nando's and we ordered the double skewers and the chicken leg with one side. Chicken was cooked perfectly and tasted good. I admit I prefer Nando's peri peri sauces as they seem to have a bit more depth to them. Galito's lemon and herbs peri peri sauce was tasty! The portions seem a bit more generous than Nando's as well. read more

Friendly staff and nice clean restaurant. I got there at 11:00am when they first opened. I ordered the half chicken with rice and roasted potatoes. Chicken was tender and cooked perfect. The hot sauce really complimented the chicken and the rice. The potatoes were nice and soft too. I would definitely come here again. Way better than Nando's !! read more

Galito's Flame Grilled Chicken - Double leg special - South African Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Everthing looks like Nando, the chicken taste good, flavorous, fresh and tender. Peri fries has a little spicy. Maybe the location near the airport, so less customer, whole dinner time only our family, India pop music. read more

I was staying at the Toronto Airport West hotel and wandered down a couple of blocks and found this place for lunch. I ordered the 10$ double kebab lunch special which came with rice and I opted for potatoes as my one side. The food came out in a timely fashion and the place was very clean. The chicken kebab was great.. a little char on the outside and moist on the inside with a flavorful marinade. The rice was okay...and the potatoes were nice as well. Overall..for a ten buck lunch, its definitely worth coming back to. read more

Enjoyable Portuguese chicken... not sure why its under South African on Yelp. Staff very accommodating and this place is child friendly. The reason I didn't put up a fourth star is that everything tasted more or less the same to me. Cooked well and seasoned but all of one note. read more

Some of the best chicken we have ever had! This surprising place was happened upon after reading a few reviews and I can't say enough about how great the food is! Now we ordered for take out and had the family meal- chicken with lemon and herbs, some mixed vegetables and spicy fries and garlic bread - it was a 10-10 meal for everyone in the family! Can't wait to try more from this place! Price is great and they are fast! read more

This place is just ok, not bad, not great, but Ok. Had a Groupon which was 50% off a whole chicken meal, I would buy another Groupon, but would buy this at regular price. read more

I dont know how the food was unfortunately, but here is my experience. We use Groupon to test out restaurants near us. It's basically a website where restaurants register and offer promotional deals to gain clients. When you purchase a groupon, you can only use it at the particular restaurant that you chose and then you have a certain period to use it. What some restaurants do is sell groupon offers and pretend that their scanning machine is broken and dont honor their promotion. By that time you are already there and end up buying food there anyway. However, people like me who feel disrespected by businesses who operate in bad faith, will leave as quick as they came, and spend their money in places of integrity. By the way. Buyer beware. This is a thing done by many. Still figuring out how to get our money back read more

This place is nice and big as compare to other locations. And the chicken was really great we enjoyed a lot and service was awesome love it read more

First time eating at this place and it was quite tasty. I LOVE the peri peri fries, I want that seasoning they use! I got the groupon deal so it was 13 but 10.40 with groupon code plus 1.70 for tax. Anyway I got the very hot chicken, peri peri fries and garlic sticks and enjoyed every bite. My friend was just upset because she asked for lemon herb and when we got home it was also very hot, probably my fault for enjoying heat, but she hates spice so she was upset. We just didn't feel like driving all the way back. Other than that it was tasty and not gonna lie I enjoyed hers as well, so win-win for me. :-) . read more

Love this place! Double Kabob with Rice and Piri Piri Fries for lunch is addictive. The people at this location are amazing. One time I forgot to grab my drink after I left. I had no issue going back to pick it up, however I called to let them know. They had a person drive and drop it off to me at my place of work. That is customer service !! Great food .. Great service ! read more

I ordered the half chicken with 2 sides (peri peri rice and roasted potatoes). Had it made "hot" on the heat level. The chicken was tender and the flame grill taste was prominent. The peri peri rice was alright and the roasted potatoes were not that great. Would recommend for the flame grill taste. read more

I've been to Galito's a few times as its across the street from my company. I like the speed of service and quality of food. I would recommend this restaurant to anyone who feels like having grilled chicken. read more

I called at 11.30 PM on Saturday night hoping to place a medium order for pickup. While the restaurant only closes at 12 AM, they said they decided to close early and cannot serve! Unacceptable read more

Horrible experience at this Galitos, no wonder they have to provide groupon deals because people normally wouldn't dine here. The manager was completely unaccommodating and lacked basic customer service skills. Never coming back and will not recommend this location. read more

Went there today and got the same order as last time and the peri peri rice and roasted veggies were old and rotten. The rice smelled like it had been going bad for a few days the vegetables were shrived and the smelled repugnant. I ate the chicken on its own and then called them to tell them what was wrong with my dinner. Turns out the worst thing isn't their food, it is how they treat their customers. The lady I spoke with was so rude, did not even apologize, rushed me off the phone and told me to call back when the manager was there. What kind of a business that wants to retain people serves them rotten food then don't have the decency to apologize? I do NOT recommend this place because I couldn't guarantee you would get food that isn't rotten. read more
