We went to Spice lounge over the weekend for our first Tapas experience. The amazing rating on yelp helped make our choice easier and we were excited to try it out - and we were not disappointed. The spot is a bit cozier than what I had expected and the food selection was plenty. I did notice that some of the items mentioned on yelp were not on the menu which I assume to be seasonally changed. We had the mushroom croquettas, pulpo, tuna cheviche and the paella. I was not a big fan of mushroom croquettas but my siblings enjoyed it (I think it had shiitake mushrooms which I am not a big fan of). Tuna cheviche was okay. The paella and pulpo though...are a MUST! The service was great and the place started filling up right after we were seated - we did not have a reservation and were lucky to walk in when we did. I will definitely return to try other items on their menu. read more

Bartender can certainly remain questionable about the age based on appearance but when asked for if they serve shots, response was a bit vague. Anyway overall ambience was great. read more

It was my first time in Port Credit, and we stumbled upon this restaurant, which is currently operating as a back alley patio. We were intrigued by it's fusion tapas style, even though we had originally thought that it was a Spanish tapas place. I was with a party of six, and we were served by an extremely friendly server that night. We ordered some tacos, flatbreads and a mango papaya salad. Each dish was quite well prepared, and since it was a mix of a lot of different cultures' foods, I was satisfied with the level of authenticity. However, because they were trying to do a lot of different styles, I feel like the quality was not as good as if they did something more focused. Also, I think it would be worth it to consider some more substantial dishes like a fried rice, etc. I know it's a tapas focused place, but I found that for a party of 6, I still didn't feel too satisfied after trying all the dishes we got. I hope that they can continue to upgrade their menu, because I think it's a really nice place already, but improvements can be made. I also think that since it's mostly serve in a back alley patio right now, there were a lot of wasps and it wasn't the cleanest back alley, so that is my other reason for giving this place 3 stars. I'm sure that when they get back to serving in their unit, the quality of the experience will go up! read more

We came on a Monday night to celebrate hubby's birthday. I called ahead to ensure they would make something vegetarian for our friend and vegan/gluten free for me. The friendly guy on the phone, Andy, said they could do veg tacos as the tortillas are corn and they have veggies. This was good because in the past they refused to do anything and said it was best if I ate elsewhere. The server was surprised Andy told me this but she checked with the chef and he did make the vegan tacos. Although they did get soggy fast and break apart, the flavour was fresh and tasty. My son had the chicken tacos and did not enjoy the flavour so he wasted them. We had olives and spicy nuts to start. The nuts were sweet and salty but not very crunchy. The spice flavour was good. Hubby had the short ribs and the meatballs in bravas sauce.. he said both were fine but the meatballs were quite big so he had to pack them to take home. They came with toast. We sat on the small patio in front but they have indoor seating too and a huge patio in back. It was not busy on a Monday at 6:30pm but I have seen the place packed full on weekends. read more

I just absolutely love Spice. The food is great and the tapas allow us to try different things in the menu. Our fav is the duck flatbread, patatas bravas and octopus, but all the food is amazing. We love the atmosphere, the music, (when they have live music) and the staff. Never a dull moment. This is our favorite place in Port Credit as it is cozy and friendly, which is a bonus., read more

Still yummy! Absolutely love their outdoor patio set up. Each picnic table has its own umbrella and is separated by plexiglass for extra protection. Sorry I did not take photos of everything we had: 1- Patatas Bravas Crispy yet pillowy wedges of fried potato drenched in a tangy tomato sauce and a side of creamy garlic aioli. This was my favourite of the tapas we ordered. Super yum! 2- Vegetable Goat Cheese Flatbread Good size tapas. Generous toppings. Grilled veggies were not overdone. Yum! 3- Mushroom Croquettes Crunchy on the outside, risotto-like on the inside. Good truffle flavour - yum! 4- Grilled corn Sweet and buttery and tangy from the lime - yum! Wish it had more tajin seasoning but that's me. 5- Margarita Smooth, lightly sweet, tangy with a nice rim of flaky salt - yum! Would I visit again? Most definitely! read more

Food was great. Service was questionable. The fries were great but we were forgotten and were left hungry for 30 minutes. Last time we came, a nice young man served us. This time around, our waitress went to MINGLE with another table and completely forgot us. Possibly will come back. read more

This is my favourite tapas place. I love their olives and nuts and even more so their patatas bravas. I cannot speak enough praises of this place. It's a small place in beautiful Port Credit. The staff are very nice and always have a smile. Their food speaks for itself, everything I have had has been delicious! read more

Spice Lounge & Tapas - Olives and nuts; mushroom flatbread and patatas bravas - Lounges Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

After being informed, quite literally at the last minute, that there was a media launch going on near me, I ran, ran and ran some more from my office to the other side of Port Credit. My destination? Spice Lounge and Tapas, a mainstay in the area. With its Spanish tapas, plentiful drinks and dark, brooding atmosphere, it's no wonder why this place is seen as the venue of choice for lushes and hipsters across south Mississauga. I spoke about them briefly during my review of the Mississauga Mac and Cheese Festival, where they had a tent and were serving penne-style mac-and-cheese with duck confit. There was nothing quite that extravagant at the event I attended, but the food was stellar all around. A large plate of tenderloin(?) steak was served up alongside flatbread pizza, a tray of vegetables and plenty of wine. I also had the chance to try the croquettes, which my good friend Jake says are a particular highlight of this restaurant. I'm not sure if I'm as impressed by the food as everyone else was, but the lounge more than makes up for it in style. There's almost always live music going on in here - my former boss used to play Spanish guitar on the weekends. Anywhere you sit is a choice spot, and the menus offer quite the range of tapas items and drinks. There's a lot to choose from, almost too much. It's a perfect date spot if you're in the village. If I have any concerns, it's that the prices on average are a bit higher than I'd usually like to pay. Most items on the menu run $10 - 13, and the portion sizes are a bit smaller-than-normal. Regardless, if you're willing to pony up the dough for it, there's a lot of selection, including the Spice Meatballs, a personal favorite. Spice is definitely one of the true hotspots in the village, and well worth a look if you want a different (and more cozy) tapas experience. Recommended. read more

I've become a huge advocate for all things Port Credit as of recently. The food for the most part is high quality, the business owners are friendly, personable and approachable and the venues are unique and each present something different for night life. No spot was as unique, on a recent restaurant crawl of the Port Credit area, as Spice Lounge & Tapas. This tiny venue located just East of the Pumphouse on Lakeshore offers something that no one else does in Port Credit, Mississauga and perhaps even the entire GTA--authentic Spanish/South American Tapas! The decor in here is upscale meets wine bar. Well I guess that would make it very loung-y then. I enjoyed the lighting, dimly lit (almost entirely by candle light) with red accent lighting above and around. Very intimate and cool, almost like a sexy-romantic vibe. No surprise that even on a Wednesday night this place was a hotspot hangout for tattooed twenty something hipsters - wait they have hipster types in the GTA?????? Heck yes! And they all hang out at Spice. Just kidding. But the place was extremely busy with a very cool younger crowd of folks for a Wednesday. I could totally see myself being a weekly regular here if I lived a touch closer. That may happen sooner than you think... (I really love Port Credit... like a lot). We were treated to a delicious sample of their tapas menu, we were so full by the time we arrived but I vowed to rearrange my stuffing and make room for the delectable options presented to us. Initially we were served a flatbread with prosciutto type cured meat on top which had honey drizzled, it was sticky but tasty. I'd never considered drizzling honey on top of cured meats. Shortly after we were given a plate of Artichoke hearts done in a red sauce. It was piping hot and I love artichoke hearts so I can't say a bad word about them. The grand finale and by far the surprise of the night was the Colombian ricotta cheese balls. Deep fried. Covered in a dolce de lecce caramel sauce. Unexpected and fan-friggen-tastic!!! I'd definitely come back for this time and time again. Sangria options were by the glass or by the pitcher. A note to those bordering on a visit to AA the "by the glass option" is MORE than enough for one person. See the pictures that thing was crazy huge, filled to the brim and made perfectly! Can't wait to return - thanks for a great time. A well deserved 5 star from me! Eatcrest Out! read more

Was in the mood for some nice cocktails and Tapas. Found this little gem close to my house and decided to try it out. The place was completely packed but we were lucky to grab the last table available. Despite being a tapa place, the portions were reasonably generous, service was courteous and quick, the food was fresh, meats were succulent and the experience..... Exhilarating. We ordered beef skewers with quinoa, seafood stew and truffle mushroom croquette. For drinks we ordered a white sangria and it was a pretty generous size. All in all a great experience and would love to visit this place again I just hope I am lucky enough to find a table as the place was completely packed. They do accept reservations, so I would recommend all yelpers reading this review to book in advance and parking is a bit problematic but check the side streets, plenty of parking available there. read more

My husband surprised me by taking me here on a date night. I was so excited because I have driven by so many times and always thought to myself that I wanted to check it out. I was soo glad we came here! Picky vegetarian like me? I often find it extremely difficult to find one dish on a menu I enjoy. So imagine my excitement when I literally enjoyed very single dish we ordered!!! The mixed drinks were unique and tasty. The service was great! The wait staff was very attentive yet gave us our space and were non intrusive. This is such a great little spot. Perfect for a date or girls night. See pics for the dishes we got. read more

Spice Lounge & Tapas - Lounges Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Great cozy tapas lounge. A very date-y type of place with several two tops and candlelit ambience with very faint lighting. Sat at the bar height tables close to the window to do some people watching and chat it up with the neighbors. The prawns were grill just about perfectly and the spicy tomatoey sauce was a pleasant depart from the usual butter based sauces. The mushrooms were meaty in a throaty thick broth. On the second round got the veggie flatbread & chorizo, which go to together like peanut butter & jelly. Prices were about on par with the area and passed tapas experiences. Eat more, pay more. *M* was a great waitress and offered up some really wine suggestions. She was also previously in the porn industry, but behind the camera allegedly... really funny gal though. read more

Went here tonight for a girls night with my best friend. We had a good time! It was a Friday around 10pm and the atmosphere was very chilled out and relaxing - like a classy restaurant-lounge. I believe on other nights it may feel more bar-lounge, but not Fridays! Not too dressy but I didn't spy any t-shirt/jeans. I noticed a lot of after work customers still in their blazers. We split the red wine sangria jug and the cheeseboard - both were more than enough for us and so delicious! My friend didn't LOVE the cheeseboard, but I found it quite delicious. The blue cheese, fig jam and candied nuts were such a nice touch. I especially loved how their bread was crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside - they even offer to refill it for free! I loved 3 out of 4 of the cheeses on the cheeseboard, and couldn't care for the one fried one they had. The red wine sangria wasn't too heavy or strong and had a nice fruity flavourful but not overly sugary. I really enjoyed the wine they used! We spent about $30 each without tip and were full off the cheeseboard and bread, and got at least 2.5-3 decent sized glasses of sangria each. Pretty decent for that price! I would definitely come back with my SO or in the summer with some friends/on a date! Highly recommend. Notes: the place was smaller than we expected but we ended up enjoying the coziness. We also had great service from the waiter/waitress attending to us. Presentation and quality of food was top notch in my books, however my friend felt there was room for improvement (she did enjoy her experience overall though and complimented the non-cheese part of the cheeseboard). Other orders we noticed all looked delicious. They take all cards and cash and reservations as well. Friday nights just consist of lots of ins and outs of groups of people, happy atmosphere, but super laid back/non-party like. However, it's a great place to kick back a few drinks and have some laughs with friends. read more

First my thanks to the many Yelp reviews. They were a great help choosing from an amazing menu. Started with Nuts and Olives. Great starter - suggestion to staff - I was eating alone and needed a little cheese to go with salty olives. I asked for a slice of cheese. You could have sold me a $5 slice or whatever. But, you only offered me cheese platter. I ordered Mussels but, they were gone - bummed. But ordered the prawns instead. NOT DISAPPOINTED! 5 or 6 pieces of greatness - great job kitchen! Next course Tacos - another home run! But honestly make it two for the price! Table order suggestion, 1.5 per person and worth every cent! Nice music set from a brother Scot! I would have had Benejlos (sp?) dessert but they were out! Bummer! Another time! I cannot express how impressed I was with quality of food delivered. AND LEAST NOT BE FORGOTTEN the EXCEPTIONAL staff. See you on another trip! read more

Celebrated a friend's birthday at Spice Lounge on Friday evening. We arrived at 7:30 and there were only a few people sitting at the bar. Our table was reserved and we were seated promptly. Our server came over right away, introduced herself and took our drink order. When she came back with drinks she explained the different sections of the menu and made a recommendation on the number of plates to order. She also made some excellent food recommendations. We ended up ordering the meat and cheese board, brie & fig flatbread, scallops, striploin and the artichoke hearts. The meat and cheese board was delicious. It came with two types of meat, two cheeses, sweet pickles, olives, some spicy nuts and fig jam. One of the meat choices was wild boar. Really good! The two types of cheese were good too - different than the usual cheeses found on a charcuterie board. It was definitely enough for two people to share, three was stretching it. Wish more bread had been provided. The brie & fig flatbread was delicious. There was lots of brie on it - big hit with the table. There was also a good amount of fig jam. The flavours balanced each other out nicely. The arugula on top was warm which I actually prefer on a flatbread. Enough for three people to share - two pieces each. The scallops were cooked perfectly. They had a really nice cucumber almost salsa like topping on them. Good mix of flavours. There are 4 scallops per plate. The artichoke hearts were easily the table favourite. The tomato based sauce they come in is amazing. I want to put that on everything! We were even dipping our flatbread into it. I would get this dish again and again. Enough for three people to share. The striploin was excellent as well. The presentation wasn't the best, but the taste was out of this world. It wasn't overly seasoned and cooked medium rare as requested. I like the concept of bringing things out as they are ready as opposed to altogether. All dishes were served hot and felt as though it was multiple courses. Around 8:30 the restaurant really picked up and was busy. Due to the small space, it does get really loud, but cannot be helped. We really enjoyed the food and the service was fantastic. The menu is relatively small. I'd like to see them add maybe some street taco options to give it more variety. Great evening out. I will be returning! read more

Nothing like a night out at Spice! Been going there for years, and it really is the best bar in Port Credit. The staff have always been incredible. The drink selection is amazing, and the food is always delicious. Definitely a must try if you're yet to go! read more

Spice Lounge was so good I went there twice during a three-day stay in Port Credit. Well, it could have been a combination of goodness and late hours... To make the most of your trip to Spice Lounge here's what you need to do: - Order a sangria. Drink. Repeat. - Snack on Patatas Bravas and/or the beef with corn and peach salsa and/or a truffled mushroom pizza. - Leave happy. It seems like they have live music many nights of the week and Sundays are Sangria Sundays if you're looking for a special. The place is smallish, but it's cozy and well-suited for dates or non-dates alike. Enjoy! read more

A new late night lounge on Lakeshore Rd in Port Credit (MIssissauga). I was pleasantly surprised at how comfy this spot became once we settled in. At first a little small, mood lighting turned to setting "DARK!!!", and some funky acid-jazz playing on the radio, the bar seemed maybe too stereotypical and cheesy to enjoy... but that feeling proved wrong pretty quickly. The seating arrangement, while not a ton of it, is nevertheless roomy and comfy. Big plush leather chairs or high-tables and bar-stools for those who like to look down their glass of pinot grigio upon the rabble below. A few stools around the bar itself as well. The service was crazy friendly and fast and helpful - in the way that ONLY a new establishment provides, so get it while it's good (let's hope it lasts awhile). They've got a handful of (mostly Irish) brews on tap, a full bar, and make their own renditions of "sangria"... if you're a sangria connoisseur, you'll probably find their light and funky variations off-putting, but if you're just looking for a bright and totally flavorful summer beverage, their sangria hits the mark. My party sampled both the red and white versions, and while it was clear the concoction is not made with fruit steeping at the bottom of the carafe, they still threw in some very fresh fruit into the glass for good measure. Tasty tasty tasty. Their tequila selection was a little strange and somewhere between impressive and silly. Upon inquiry, I was told they had Jose Cuervo (the absolute worst trash you could pout the word "tequila" over), or their specialty import tequilas that cost upwards of 60, 80, and 100 bucks a shot depending on the grade (silver, repasado, añejo). Wanting something more in the middle, I stuck with the sangria. Also, the place advertises tapas, but I didn't see any menus or anyone else eating... nor did I inquire... so someone else will have to check on that. Cozy, intimate, fair prices, very welcoming and fast service, this place will continue to be awesome until the Port Credit cougars take it over... (pop your head in across the street at the Harp to see what I'm talking about). [The same owners run the equally new burger joint directly across the street, which is awesome and highly recommended! Make it a two-fer!] read more

Came here for date night on a Monday we were a little hesitant since we weren't sure about the quality of food at a lounge/bar type of place but o..m..g. The place was pretty much empty so we had the full attention of the server and everything came promptly on time. We ordered the patatas bravas, tuna carpaccio and the gambas. Patatas b. was alright; filling and nothing special Gambas (shrimp in tomato sauce) served with fresh grilled bread was amazing and the server was great in getting us more bread The tuna carpaccio was FANTASTIC - melt in your mouth typa dish! And we ordered two red sangrias, and because we were a little unsure about the white, the server graciously offered to get us a sample!!! Price-wise; on the pricier side for the portion size but we availed the last offer they had for 25% off on mondays that they'll no longer continue. Will definitely be coming again read more

So - we had dropped Kid #2 at college, and decided to take the long way home through Toronto. We got tired of the highway, and diverted to Lakeshore Road - the back roads are always so much more interesting! It was getting to be dinner time, so we were keeping an eye out for a hotel and a good place to stop to eat. We absolutely LOVE tapas, so when we passed through Port Credit and saw tapas we literally made a Uturn right then and headed straight for Spice Lounge & Tapas! You know it must be good when most of the tables had reserved signs on them even at 5:00pm! It is small, so next time we would definitely make a reservation. But there were a few tables open so we grabbed a seat. Liz, our hostess/waitress, couldn't have been nicer! She explained the menu, and gave us an idea of how much to order. When we told her we were from out of town and looking for a hotel for the night, she even called a nearby hotel for us to check on availability! Who does that anymore? We were a little disappointed that they were out of a few items, but there was plenty to choose from and a very nice wine list. We ordered the meat and cheese plate and a bottle of Malbec. Warning: the meat and cheese plate is HUGE!!! I mean HUGE! It would easily feed 4 people! The proscuitto was so creamy and delicious - it was the best I have ever had. Two kinds of fresh cheese, olives, spiced nuts, crusty bread... what's not to love? The plate was so big that we didn't need anything else! Port Credit is such a cute little community - there happened to be a street fair (The BuskerFest) going on that night - and we were so lucky to stumble across this town, the fair, and a terrific restaurant. What a great night! read more

Went here on a DishCrawl and it was the 4th location. I did try everything we got but I will definitely come back when I'm not already full! :) Flatbread with proscuitto and drizzled with honey was good - a little sweet though. Artichoke hearts were, well, artichoke hearts. The donut thing for dessert filled with cheese was unreal.. read more

As a big fan of any restaurant who serves tapas, I was thrilled to find this restaurant in Port Credit. I love food and trying different dishes, but my eyes are generally larger than my stomach. So a place like Spice, where I can try bites of 5 or 6 different plates is a dream come true. This restaurant is small so make sure to make a reservation or go early. It gets busy quick, But, the atmosphere is romantic with dark lighting and close tables. A perfect place for a date! Now, here is the reason that I continue to go back. The cheese board is INCREDIBLE! Their selection of cheese has always impressed, along with their candied nuts, fresh fruit, salty olives, and, oh the jam. The fig jam I would purchase in buckets if it was for sale. I've learnt my lesson and always start with my cheese board and decide after what I still have room in my tummy for. The empanadas are crispy and cheesy, the smoked duck flatbread is a nice mix of sweet and savoury, and the messy ribs are stacked mountain high. The only miss for us was the beef taco. My boyfriend is a taco fanatic and found it wasn't anything special, at a price point of $6/taco. Anytime I find myself walking down Lakeshore in Port Credit, I find myself drawn back to this great tapas bar! -Ashley Marie read more

A+++++ We went for a friend's birthday dinner and this place was just PHENOMENAL! Our servers were friendly, the food was fantastic, and that white wine sangria... Oh my oh my oh my. I'll definitely be back. There were four of us, three boys and myself, and after a bunch of small plates we were all pretty stuffed. Here's a breakdown of what we had: Meat and Cheese Board (4.5/5) - sooooo good. The cheese selection was amazing, the meats were pretty yummy, but it was the other fixins that stole the show! They had these candied nuts, spicy pickled veggies, super tasty olives, crusty bread, and quince paste--all were memorable. Prawns Romesco (5/5) - Just so tasty, eat it to believe it people. Artichoke Hearts (4/5) - This one was great too! Although three crostinis for that whole bowl of dip? Ehhhhhhhh Red Stag Chorizo & Cider (3.5/5) - Sausage was alright but the three crostinis made a comeback. Also, this one I just don't think is that memorable in taste, although the table side flaming action was pretty cool. Paella Croquettes (4/5) - totally yummy, just deep fried breaded rice goodness. Needs a tad bit more sauce though. All in all, I can't believe I found a gem like this in Mississauga. I'll definitely be back and I really hope you all will give this place a go! Note: it's pretty pricy! We split the dishes and the bill still came to around $33 before tip for me. read more

Spice Lounge & Tapas - Lounges Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

Sangria and tapas. This shouldn't be to hard; fresh quality tapa ingredients and lots of wine should complete the picture for Spice Lounge but unfortunately the Sangria was lacking and the food was just ok. Good for the area. Nothing special in my books. It's nice to go out to a lounge but the waitress was forgetful, they made us wait outside as they were at capacity yet enforced this rule sporadically and unfortunately Spice Lounge did not make an impression on me whatsoever. I could have saved my $150 and brought my own fruit to put in the sangria as Spice had none. read more

This place felt like a ghost town on a Saturday night. The bartender looked uninterested in serving and had a limited selection of beer. The food was below par and the service average. Really can not find even one good feature to write here. read more

I would give my experience a 3.5 - we had actually intended to go to Door FiftyFive but they were at capacity. We looked at reviews of nearby places and this one had great reviews. I liked the atmosphere inside, it's small cool lighting, the seating layout was a bit odd though. The staff was really nice and she ensured that the one tapa we got came dairy free. We had intended to come out for drinks, the drink menu looked cool. Here is a breakdown (please note these were two drinks each not four to myself lol) Yellowbrick Road- it had a good taste, as expected off the menu description but slightly watered down Keylime Pie - did not taste like Keylime Pie, tasted like bar lime juice and touch of vodka Blueberry Muffin - too sweet, it did taste a bit like a blueberry muffin but again watered down version The Equalizer - by far the best drink, delicious not watered down For tapas we got the Artichoke Hearts - Sautéed with lemon tomato olive salsa. I really liked this dish, I have never had anything like it before. The artichoke was tender, lots of green olives (not pitted though unfortunately) super tasty. The other dish was Patatas Bravas - Spanish style potatoes? They were spicy and tasty I couldn't have the dip but it looked yummy. I don't know if I would come back for drinks, they were pretty mediocre but the food was good. The music got a bit too loud as well, it was nice when we came in then they started blasting it like it was a club. Pretty unnecessary as it just came off classier when they didn't do that. read more

Such a great find in port credit, not really a "spice" lounge though. However, if you're into tapas, this is the place for you. The dishes are absolutely yummy! The beef tenderloin skewers, beef tenderloin tacos, and chorizo were really good. Didn't really like the Serrano ham and fig flatbread; felt like I was eating jam toast than actually having flatbread. It was way too sweet. I'll definitely be back to try the meat and cheese platter and mussels! I'll definitely be back here, to try the meat and cheese platters and mussels! read more

Salsa and Tapas? Yes please! I've been here numerous times with my husband and never ever been disappointed. Living in Port credit area, we just walk to "The Spice lounge" if we fancy a little wee bit of drink after work and some tapas to share. I probably tried all the items in their menu but my favourites are : - PEI Mussels: (in tomato sauce or white sauce) both very tasty and cooked right. - Red Sangria ( I usually order the pitcher) - Chorizo ( cooked in sherry and cider) - Empanadas ( Serrano ham and smoked cheddar) - Beef TacO (AAA beef tenderloin in soft taco shells with jalapeños and garlic aioli. read more

I cannot believe how incredibly well the staff at Spice handled our reservation last night which blossomed from about 25 to somewhere around SIXTY people!!! (Sorry again Ryan!! lol) They didn't miss a beat and were so incredibly gracious and kind ensuring we were all happy despite getting SLAMMED by us for my fiancé's 40th Surprise party! I cannot recommend a better place for an intimate gathering with your loved one, a group of friends or even the family. I can attest to the consistency of their service and food as I also had my staff Christmas party here and it was super! The Tapas choices are varied and incredibly tasty! The management and chef even went so far as to ensure they had wild caught fish on hand to prepare an "off the menu" request for the Birthday Boy last night! I was really impressed with their eagerness to go out of their way to ensure we had a night to remember! THANK YOU GUYS if you're reading this... "you are all AWESOME!" Everyone had such a wonderful evening and the live music at the end of the evening was such a beautiful treat! Spice Lounge is a class act! So lucky to have this hot spot in our backyard! We can't wait to come back! read more

For those who have not made their way to Spice yet - it's well worth a visit! I've been here a few times & it's my favorite hot spot in Port Credit. Ultra chic atmosphere, great music and not to mention busy! The staff here is always smiling and so friendly, you can tell they really enjoy being there and socializing with the crowd. There's never a dull moment! I usually swing by for a few drinks (try their sangria!), but my most recent visit entailed an accompanying dinner, which was nothing short of delicious! It was a tapas menu so we had ordered a few things - pan fried hallumi cheese with crustini (probably my favorite; huge cheese fan!), pulled pork empanadillas (the dips are amazing!), truffled mushroom toast, and to top it all off, turdillas (pastry-like) with vanilla Ice cream and Dulce deleche. It was just as appeasing to the eye as it was appetizing! I wish i had taken some photos, but unfortunately I devoured everything much too quickly :) My regards to Chef Marty for whipping up these items, the food items exceeded my expectations (I felt the need to thank him and let him know in person; very nice guy!) If you do go by Spice, I suggest trying some of the food items - you won't be disappointed! 5-star experience (and my date wasn't so bad either)! Thank you, Spice! read more

Visited Spice on a snowy Saturday night (remember that weird storm of April 2018?) and the place was still busy. The weather didn't keep people away. The food is great - I tried 4 dishes (spice nuts and olives, prawns, panko chicken, beef taco) and they were all great. I would definitely eat here again. Those four dishes with 4 or 5 drinks only came to $100. I was impressed. The food was flavorful in a plain kind of way. There is no need to salt dishes if the food is fresh and of high quality. The panko chicken for example was juicy and delicious even though the breading wasn't savory. They make a good Old Fashioned and the red Sangria is decent. The atmosphere looks really nice. It would be a really great place if you have enough people to fill it for a private party. There was one large table that was quite loud. The music got louder so others could hear it which meant the group got louder too. I'm all for loud music but it was a bit much for a small place. In no way is this a dig on Spice though. The server was very nice and super attentive. Spice is small enough that I could look at her and send a hand signal - she knew what I was saying. :) There is a regular DJ on Saturday nights. The music wasn't my cup of tea, but the lighting was cool. read more

This place was pretty good. The dishes were a bit pricy for the portions, but the food tasted good. The atmosphere is more of a date night place than a casual dinner, especially once you see the lighting which is very dark and romantic-like. We got 3 dishes - as they didn't have about 7 different things on the menu which was slightly disappointing... Couple of the dishes we got were the beef skewers and the spicy meatballs and then we got a chicken Flatbread to start. Overall, I will go back here, but only for a date night, as the food portions as I mentioned are not designed for someone who is hungry.. It's more of a social setting. read more

Spice Lounge is a great spot in Port Credit - great and affordable menu with lots of variety and nice drink options, very cozy atmosphere and open late. They also has live entertainment when I was there on a Friday night. I can honestly say that everything we ordered was delicious and the service was great, would definitely recommend it! read more

Nice interior atmosphere and location. I will say that the truffle mushroom croquettes were amazing! However everything else is not at all that impressive especially for the price. Live the idea of the smaller portions but if they're going be over $12 each they should at least be something worth remembering. read more

Spice Lounge & Tapas - The only thing worth recommending were the truffle mushroom croquettes on the left - Lounges Near Me - Mississauga, Ontario

This place was the last stop on ourr Dish Crawl, and boy was it fun! We were cramped. There was barely room for us. And by that, I meant I was sitting on a high top table in the corner of the stage. They moved away the band stuff for us. Though we were all elbow to elbow, it was SUCH a great place. I was too full to try the prosciuttp seranno pizza, but I did get to try the ricotta desert ball. OMFG. SO FREAKING GOOD I ate three. No lie. SO GOOD. SO SO So GOOD. The drinks were pretty cheap too from what I remember. Definitely the most happening place on the lakeshore strip! read more

I used to love going there but the servers are so rude. I went Thursday because every other bar had a line or closed.. And the server saw me and my date. Ignored us to the point the BOUNCER asked if wed been served and brought us a drink menu. And I give him credit for that actually. Then after avoiding us as long as she could.. Was so rude and made me feel very uncomfortable ... I know she's dating one of the owners so maybe she feels entitled to be blantantly rude. The owners are nice, very professional and the bouncer actually helped us out but wow. I don't rate or review places ever but this was unreal. read more
