    Olives and spicy nuts
    Ritu D.

    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.

    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!

    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!

    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.

    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!

    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.

    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.

    This is a hip little joint in Port Credit that offers a nice selection of beers cocktails and snacks. Great location for people watching in the heart of Port Credit. I love the decor which features exposed brick. Great place to go with a friend here or a small group. The service here is very good as well.

    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.

    The outside is somewhat deceiving until you walk in and realize the place is indeed just a small…read morelounge with a very intimate setting. Staff are very accommodating. So many different flavors for hookah to choose from along with the flavored water which we opted out for. First time smokers ar truly unaware as to how light the smoke is and feel as if it's smoking nothing. The harshness of regular cigarettes can't be compared as the shisha and has the unique flavor infused. Exotic Candy was nice to start with Crown Royal at your side. Lounge chairs and ample tables, minimal decor and many patrons.

    Sketchy. Dirty methods. Red flag after red flag…read more Located in the middle of nowhere, probably best when u wanna keep below the radar for promoting a place like this. Cover charged only to walk in to a nearly empty place (except 1 other party of 4) with music so loud you can't even hear the hostess and we are told we can only pay with cash and cards are not accepted (red flag) . We were optimistic and decided to make the best of it while we sat and waited. Our server brought over a menu for food drinks and hookah.. Then a handwritten stained pieces of folded notebook paper and crossed out words here and there, presenting it to us as the "currently availability hookah flavors" (red flag) . We still kept an open mind and began to place out orders. Every hookah food and drink order requested was "not available" or out of stock. We ask to see the manager, who walks in and tried to make a package deal to accommodate the lack of availability from all departments. Hungry ad realizing there is not much to eat, we ask for our cover money back to leave. We are approached by promoter who refuses to return our money and begins arguing with manager about lack of food or hookah flavors or drinks (red flag) . The unprofessional Promoter goes back to negotiate giving us back half but returns with 4 bouncers and forces us out of the place and curses at us upon us asking for our refund after he tells us he is not allowed to serve us hookah tobacco because the place is not licensed to do so , and continues to yell at us as we walk out the door . ( red flag confirmed) Great customer service guys . Excellent way to promote.
