Spice Lounge and Tapas in Mississauga

Good food, nice atmosphere, great music, great staff. What more can you want?

Nice cocktails and seating

There genuine good people.. The two brothers are in sync. Very difficult to see or find these days. Support them theyve earned it. They get it...

Great Staff and Good Vibes

Warm atmosphere. DJ was banging

Sat on the patio, menu was stark for Tapas, expecting more, compared to other places. Service was scattered and food was mediocre, not value for the money. .

The man at the door was very rude.

Nice place to hang out on a Tuesday night.

This is the most nastiest discussion place I have stepped into. Who sends food to your table unordered and makes the customer pay. Is this really how you make money! Customer should always be honored. Not here. Theirs!

Small bites only. The server was very attentive. Eat dinner before you come here

Fun mexican place with a cozy bar vibe. Great for live music and dates.

I was there last weekend, Saturday night with friends. Everyone was dancing while I had stepped out for a quick smoke. The guy at the door locked it right away, seeing I was standing right next to him the whole night. When knocked to come in, he refused to let me in after I reapetedly explained & requested to get to my friends. There was another 30/35 minutes to go before the music would stop. Then everyone would wrap up & start coming out. I asked the guy, do you want me to just stand here for next 40 mins waiting for my friends to come out? One of them I traveled with had my purse. I cant just leave. But he kept saying; o I cant help you. None can come in anymore. It doesnt matter that you were already here. Then I stood there for good 20 mins. Meanwhile people leaving the bar, few came out for smoke & went back in. Apparently, he had to clear his tab. So after a while.. when the music stopped.... people started leaving, I tried to get in. Now he got physical and started pushing me out being extremely rude. As if I was some drunk person trying to cause trouble. Meanwhile, couple of my friends came to the door asking him to let me in.. but he wouldnt have it . At one point I had to tell him to take his hands off me. He was blocking me & pushing me with his whole body towards the door. Im 411. This guy was few inches over 6 feet. Big guy. He kept saying, he is doing his job. This will stay in my memory for a long time. And Ill think twice before I go back there. Always.

I unfortunately did not have a good experience at this restaurant. Though I understand that things were busy, it took us over 45 minutes to get waters at our table, our drinks were watered down, some of our food was never punched in and the server never checked in on us so we were left to fend for ourselves and ask other servers for help. I don t like to give bad reviews but honestly myself and my friends didn t feel like coming here was worth our time. I will say the manager was extremely pleasant, engaged in friendly banter whenever he came to check in on us (he wasn t our server) & he was overall a nice man. I wish that I could say our experience was better because we did drive quite a long distance to get to Port Credit but I can t. Overall, the food has potential & the atmosphere could work but the service was extremely poor. On top of all that, none of our bills had the correct items on them & we had to wait another 10 minutes to have things corrected.

I would be lying if I said I have tried the food here to be honest.... But personally know the owners and chef, behind the scenes is chef Christian.. This man has talent and have heard nothing but positive things from co-workers in the industry... I have been working as a lead hand/sous for almost 24 years in the area and have frequented this establishment scince its birth.... Great live music, atmosphere, and hospitality. Best in PC imo. big ups to Ryan, Andy, Christian and the rest of the crew/great musical artists that have graced this spot over the years... Congratulations on your longevity and continued success as a staple in Port Credit

This place is nice. Good food and nice venue.

Great location for a date night, not too loud.

Cool place for a date night or a drink with a friend to chill for a couple hours. They had live music when we were there. A bit loud where we were seated, but the music was a good vibe

Food was good and the beef tartar was really good and really cheap. Maybe I didnt expect much with the price but it was definitely worth it. Even if it was more We got 6 dishes and they were all good

The food is definitely not worth the price. The steak is not good and the ribs are overpriced

A+

Probably the best Chef in Port Credit

Dietary restrictions: Im gluten free, and they can accommodate me Food

Only went for drinks, but nice and friendly.

Everything we tried was delicious!!!

Unreal fresh food and the owners are top notch!!! They also do sooo much for the community!!! Best Sangria EVER!!!

One of the best hidden gems in the GTA! Amazing service, incredible atmosphere, and the food is some of the best Ive ever had. They also do live music from talented local musicians, and theyre always adding new items to their menu, so theres always something new to discover!

Great time celebrating a birthday at this lounge. Had live music with an amazing singer and a great friendly vibe plus audience. Food was spectacular, and drinks came out exactly as we wanted them. The singer was kind enough to let us join for the night and we had a blast. Cannot recommend this place enough. Note that this night wasnt busy, so service may differ from us.

Spice is one of the few restos which hits on every level. The food, service and atmosphere are ALWAYS on point. This is one of the few Port Credit restos that has never left my dine in rotation, and cant foresee it ever leaving! Keep up the great work, guys!

Great location for a private venue. FOOD amazing.

Ok, so its a bit expensive, as all tapas places are, but the food was tasty. The sangria was ok: not the best Ive had but not the worst either. They have a full bar, so we had cocktails too. The service was good with no issues. Left full and happy with our decision to stop in and we will go back.

Great place for a quick snack and drinks. Do recommend for a quick visit but it is pricy so expect to spend some money Food

Came here for drinks on a Saturday evening with friends. Not sure what our waitresses name was since she never introduced herself, nor did she pay any attention to us until we asked for our bills. She failed to mentioned any sort of auto gratuity when we sat down and while we were paying our bills. I explained to her that most of us were industry people and I have nothing against an auto gratuity but you should definitely tell the guests while billing them out. She of course had the worst attitude when I called her out. She was obviously trying to make an extra buck off of us. Wouldn t come back specifically because of her. Just be aware if coming here with a group!

Unfortunately its not a real Tapas(spanish) restaurant so very bland food extremely limited menu and for 100 bucks for two people with basic tapas not worth the calories. Server was pleasant though

Food took 40min to arrive, sun was still out, and it came past sundown. When it did come, calamari was cold, octopus dish was also cold. The bone marrow burger tasted like an average frozen burger from costco.

The food was very bland, unseasoned and overpriced for the low quality. It was so bad I contemplated not even eating it just to avoid the extra calories for food that was not even enjoyable. The drinks were okay but I didn t like that they didn t have a drink menu - how do I know what is offered / the prices?! Our server was decent but they were clearly understaffed. I can forgive for that, but I won t be back because the food was honestly trash. I could have made more enjoyable / flavoured food at home. We had the calamari, the fig/Brie flatbread and the empanadas (these were the worst, soooo dry and bland).

Came with a friend to sit on the patio and was thoroughly disappointed. The server was probably high or something but we waited at least 20 minutes before he came over. We made eye contact with him at least 7 times. Once he came, we reordered our drinks and some appys. 30 minutes later he came over and asked if were enjoying our drinks, not realizing it was just melted ice from our first round. He went to go get them but we saw him scrambling behind the bar telling the bartender to make them. We asked for the bill and cancelled the food, which still hadnt arrived 45 minutes later. Atmosphere was great, but would not recommend.

Nice place to chill and they have cute staff

OK, firstly the service we had was pretty good in the back patio. Food was not great at all. I mean its not tapas. Just some apps at best that were sub par. Calamari was really small, chewy and pretty bad. Brava potatoes were meh. Tuna ceviche was ok but two teeny servings was not worth it. Beer was Ok but no drink menu...hardly anything on tap. Overall....dont bother. Find a real tapas spot or at least be prepared for mediocre pricey food.

Been going to Spice since they opened. Fabulous Tapas, excellent mixed drinks and the staff and owners are incredibly kind and welcoming!

Delicious food and friendly service. The restaurant prices are fairly standard. It can get pricey because usually you try 2-3 dishes and share it amongst the group. Its not bad if you split the cost. The portion sizes are smaller , so it is meant to be shared. I recommend the tacos , the brie flatbread , and the tostadas.

Class!

Great food try the fish tacos ! Excellent service love the vibe Thank You !

Really cute, spacious patio that they said they opened that day! I got the Strawberry Smash (I think thats what it was called) and it was so good! Also got the fish tacos and there were delicious. Our servers name was Jeremy and he was nice and attentive! Gave us some good ice recommendations, too!

Very unnique place un port credit! Must visit great tapas! And drinks.

Stopped in for some apps and drinks. Everything was good

Love this place, they do Tapas well, the food and atmosphere is really is amazing!

Food. 11/10. Service even better. Ryan and Andy run by far my favorite bar in Port Credit. Open until 2 am every night . Its definitely an industry hotspot.

Great atmosphere on the back patio but drinks tasted very watered down. Not worth the price. Food portions are also very small.

Basic Single act Entertainment, Some Ok and Some Not Ok

Everyone summer is running out! If you want the best of Mississauga, Port credit, and frankly Toronto, then get to spice patio and tapas!! The staff is amazing, friendly, always say hi to chef!!! Cheers!

I went to the Southside shuffle I seen David Wilcox with a friend of mine down there and we went over to the spice had a great time I recommend everyone drop in

Very good tapas especially with drinks. Batatas Bravas with their seasoning is perfect. Good with Martini, Gin dirty.

Worst food and drinks we have had ever. We got three drinks and three different tapas - and they were horrible - the drinks seem to be made by 4 year old and the food was perhaps made by 3 year old. I am surprised they had 4 stars on google.

Food and drinks were terrible. Everything was coated in the same bottled tomato sauce.

Rented the private room for a company holiday party... it was a great space; it had a bar, clean washrooms, dance floor and table for food! The food was amazing; the staff were delightful and helped us out so much! The party was organized with Ryan and he was amazing to work with and so helpful; he made it so stress free and easy and even helped me unload my car when I arrived!!! I would definitely book there again!

Cool little bar in Port Credit. We had a private event there this week. Great food in a fun spot.

Went on the patio with friends, they placed us up right next to the sound system which was next to the band so i dont understand the placement too much. It was so loud, our ears started to hurt. We couldn t even talk. We saw other empty tables and asked to be moved, waiters just ignored us or told us to deal with it. Note im also deaf with help of hearing aid but my friends are hearing. If its hurting a deaf person ears, thats a bad sign. Ive ordered the duck bread with pear, cause i wanted to have an open mind. It was such a awkward combo, it was not pleasant nor smelled great. I didnt take more than 2 bites cause it was so gross. My buddies also tried it, same result. Also, Spanish and Mexican cusines/cultures/dishes are very different so it was confusing when the menu labels this to be spanish or mexican when it isnt. My friend is from mexico and was very confused

Loved the food and the feel of the restaurant. The waitress hovered though and would interrupt when we were obviously deep in conversation.

The OG late night spot that s been around since before PC got the nightlife it currently has. R&A are nothing but top notch hosts, catering to every need be it a small table of two or a maxed out 50 person event upstairs (sugar room). The micro sized kitchen faces heavy demand with the new patio but Cristian always wins the battle. Try the Ahi Tuna! Best seafood dish on the block

Charged us $150 for a shot of tequila and no warning. Caught us off guard. Not a n mistake

Walked in, bar seats were full (except for 1 in-between 2 guys talking to each other). Used bathroom to urinate and got asked to empty pockets (only had phone, wallet, and keys) and was kicked out immediately after using urinal.

Cool outdoor patio with good music and great service. The drinks were very good but the food was just okay and pricier than other places with better food and bigger portions.

Amazing staff and atmosphere. Great live entratainment and a small town, local vibe where everyone knows everyone while surrounded by a big city. Love this place.

Cocktails are well done and food is delicious

Went here for a date with my boyfriend and we were disappointed. Tried the steak, calamari and strawberry smash and dont think its worth the price at all.

Bland food...... This is white food... No flavor to their food. Not spanish at all.

Food is amazing! Staff is so super friendly and so quick to serve you & make sure youre good. We had nice conversations with the staff and they really made sure we had the best service. Also love the new back patio! Best patio in Port credit!

Waited 45 mins after being served drinks for food. No server came to us to check in and neither did food. I went up to ask where our food was and got told 10 minutes later that it was never punched in. Very poor service as we were never checked on. I would not return. Going home hungry tonight. This is great.

Fun late night spot. Certainly has a local vibe to the small indoor space, which is inviting. Steak tacos were very tasty and bartender was attentive and super pleasant. Would definitely return the next time I m in this area.

Liked the patio. Ordered the beef tacos, calamari and octopus. Beef tacos were cold, portions were small, the meet had no flavor, not even a little bit of salt.....just sad....The calamari was so so, portion was small, definitely wouldnt recommend it. The octopus was the better dish, but still nothing special. In summary, the only good things about this place were the beer and the atmosphere. Definitely over priced and poor quality food.

Good location and good food. The ribs were very tasty, great selection of drinks too.

Vegetarian options: Appetizers: Patatas bravas, mushroom croquettes, vegetable and goat cheese

Bad food

Wish I could miss out on this single star too. Pathetic food. Would say do not be lured by the deck seating and late hours. Whatever we ordered was either bland or overly salty. Food here I would say is a no no. They use disposables for drinks too that just spoils the feel somehow. We ordered the raw papaya salad and the mushroom croquettes and flat breads- all disappointed.

Well DO BETTER. The music was the only reason I gave this lounge 2 stars. My La Paloma tasted like pure glucose, I asked for a Stella it was presented to me still in the bottle. I asked for napkins, I received 3 crumbled napkins, which appeared to be found in the trash. The calamari was barely OK. Huge sigh!!!

Food and drinks are ok. But good vibes on the outdoor patio. Dog friendly as well. Very friendly staff

Friendly staff and good vibe with the live music on patio. But food was not great at all. Small tiny portions for regular entree prices. The Calamari was just fried bits of batter at the most. Food needs to improve!

Great place

Please dont waste your money ordering food here. We ordered the calamari, potatoes, and two flatbreads. So there was a hair on one of our flatbreads, which they offered no compensation discount for. The actual flatbread tasted freezer burned. The potatoes were way overcooked and you can see that they were reheated. And the calamari were gross. There was Zero batter on them and not flavored at all. Someone left a review here on google a couple weeks ago saying the only thing good with their experience was the calamari...and their pictures looked really good, lots of batter and they said they tasted great, which is why we ordered them. We must have had a different chef, ours tasted overly fishy, were tiny thin peices in comparison to the other and no batter or spices! Our waiter was very nice but Such a horrible food experience

Great place... Better server

Amazing food few items are very reasonable.. Vegetarian options: Idli & vada combo tasty & good quality & reasonable.. Dosa was also good. Parking: Yes Kid-friendliness: Yes

Fantastic experience! The food was served quickly and piping hot. Everything was delicious. What made the night though was the service. The server was so friendly and accommodating. We were told that we could not order dessert as the kitchen had closed for the night. The Chef overheard and insisted on making us dessert anyway. The dessert was so good they almost didnt need to was the dish.

The owners and staff all rock, especially Cass and Andy! Best patio in Port Credit. Parking: Lots of free parking at the library across the street. Also a few paid spots on Stavebank.

Always a warm welcome and great service! Love this place.

Good flavour but the quantities are too small. Prices are way too high for the amount of food.

Love this place! Everything on the menu is different and flavorful. The venue itself is nice cozy and the ambience is nice. Perfect place to grab a drink or get some shareable platters

Great little spot! Intimate and relaxing environment. Phenomenal food! Amazing service! Variety of live music offered nightly. Great place for a date night or small social.

When I hang with my co-workers, the night is not complete until we stop by Spice.

Wished i could give this place zero star. Music was great, service was okay but the food wasnt great at all, aside from small portion its tasteless and when i ask for ketchup to put some taste on the food the server says sorry we dont have ketchup the exact word was the chef is against ketchup! I thought that was funny lol Just wont comeback to this place again.

This place hits it out of the park every time. The homemade sangrias are a hit, my favorite menu item is the mushroom croquettes. Always friendly service and knowledgeable servers. A must stop while in Port Credit.

Ordered the bbq chicken and ribs. Smoked to perfection

Great vibes. Always a good time. Launched a big patio in the summer in the back. Bring it back!

I cant wait for them to be able to open up again. Been here on a few occasions. We are an older couple compared to most of the patrons, but the staff treated us well. Thank you.

The steak tacos are awesome

#Delicious Food #Great Service

Ppl don t wear masks walking around during covid. Very expensive potatas n beer. Ppl at bar during covid. Will never go again because they didn t respect the rules

The food tasted good, but the portions were very small for the price. The calamari pieces were so small it felt like they gave us the left over bits. Their menu is very small, which was very disappointing.

First time going, cozy lil spot. Mango salad was good, mushroom ball shaped arancini was ok, beef short ribs and calamari was on the bland side, but service was quick. Mojitos were ok

Food and drinks were good but portions were really small as said in other reviews

Good atmosphere. Food was underwhelming.

Great patio but the food and drinks were okay. I specifically liked the mushroom croquettas but the tacos were okay... The tortillas were a bit too thick. The drinks tasted a little watered down but the atmosphere was great.

It was our first time attending this patio. When we arrived the host was very rude and not welcoming at all. Before even saying hi, he asked if we were all above the age of 19 (which we were all over 20 and if he didnt think so he could have ID us with no problems). He then continued to target the girls in the group, asking if their was alcohol in our purses and trying to look in them. We then sat down at the table and the waitress also was not the nicest. She took our order however had an attitude when asked to list what beers they had. We all felt very uncomfortable and had our one drink and then left without ordering any food.

Horrible experience. Extremely rude staff, manager and host at the front. Female group, assumed we had alcohol in our purses and accused us of drinking in public. Would not recommend to anyone, ever. Seemed like this has happened to others as well.

nice location , would not go back. portions were small and food mediocre. very pricey. bathroom were horrible with chipped sink and unfinished rooms upstairs. how this place survives is beyond me.... save your money and go anywhere else... this place is garbage

A very pleasant patio and our server was friendly and attentive. However, the host was unwelcoming as he only glared at us when we entered and left. What s the point of having a host if he is just going to stand there and ignore guests? The calamari was delicious although the rest of the food was a bit disappointing for the high price and small portions.

Great patio, great food, and in the Heart of Happening Port Credit !

Wow! A true gem of Port Credit! I was looking for a place for a date and I am very glad I decided to go there! The service was incredible, all staff seemed to have lots of experience in the service industry and the owner took the time to come to our table to talk to us and ensure we are having a good experience! Easy 5 Star! Other places should look at this venue and learn from them!

Food & pricing are great. Some of the best Caribbean food but the service is extremely slow. Make sure to order ahead of time. They move like molasses

Great place. Great vibe. Great drinks. Love the hospitality from the Brian and Randy ;)

Absolutely horrendous service... server barely came over twice or made an effort I have been here (not by choice) at least five times. No cutlery, no water, no quality checks, hosts not wearing masks INCREDIBLY hostile and rude hosts! Drinks overpriced, served in dirty cups taking 15 minutes plus. Not following any covid protocols. Bathrooms disgusting. Horrible food selection and very overpriced. Incredibly rude staff... Was sadly a regular at this place by chance and could not say worse things even after being in the industry for 15+ years.... only underage kids come here to get plastered and no reasonable adult would sit through such horrible service and staff.

This place is a scam, tbh! A pitcher of mojito with no alcohol just soda and syrup costs $70 The tapas are $12 plus and you get one tiny serving. And the taste is very mediocre. They are trying to sell this place as a harbour/beach side shack but honestly, I am not paying $12.5 for a cocktail that s not even tasty as a mocktail. Servers are friendly and service is nice. Food is really not that great if you compare the price.

It was the worst restaurant experience of my adult life. I wasnt sure what I was eating at one point. The food was inedible and portions were small. To top that, our server convinced us to get the Mojito pitcher that was 85% ice and get this $70!! There was nothing remotely Spanish about Spice. NEVER GO THERE

Worst bar in Pc . The host was the worst , the bartender even worse . Don t recommend this place at all

If I could give one star I would. My friends and I were at the bar and the owners came and chatted us up and offered us drinks on the house. We therefore accepted and continued on with our night. At the end of the night, our bill came and realized we were charged for the drinks we never ordered. When we confronted the owners about why we got charged for the drinks they offered on the house, they dismissed us and proceeded to tell us that it wasn t their problem. Honestly. The worst experience ever. I would not advise anyone to part take in this scam oriented establishment

Great service and food

Maybe good for alcoholic drinks or if you ve already been drinking. Patio is nice. Food was not good at all- eat somewhere else. Had 3 dishes and they all tasted terrible.

A nice and cozy tapas lounge with a good variety of food. The PEI mussels were my favourite thing on the menu but the short ribs we had were overcooked and very tough to eat.

I was looking forward to a great night reacquainting with friends. However, the host and server were full of bad service and attitude. A host should greet the customers and be welcoming, instead he was rude and fully of attitude. B. The late night server was horribly confused about taking an order of a pitcher of beer and shots, then she didnt even know how to split the bills. When I tried to clarify it for her (we only needed three bill) she was once again confused and tried to blame me for her confusion and mistakes. She blamed me repetitively too. We had the money to pay out and it was obvious we wanted drinks..... Her bias read of customers ruined the mood of the atmosphere. Plus the fact that the washroom is in a different building, badly lit and two unisex washrooms. There should be security or a bathroom host to make sure things are safe. What happened to quality service?

Food is great. Cozy ambience. Not so busy but that s what I like

The food is amazing! And if you want to order an off-menu drink, theyre happy to make it!

Great food and staff. Had the chance to chat with the owners during a recent event, they were great. Cant wait to come back.

Amazing owners. Great staff. Awesome food. A Port Credit gem.

Great food and great ambiance! The staff was really patient.

Great vibe

Great food and atmosphere

Delicious food, attentive service. Will definitely be back.

Cool private little spot with bookings at a good price for an event.

Good atmosphere great staff and owners

Great staff. Great atmosphere. Great food and drink.

Very nice location, went there for a private party. The bar staff and security were extremely friendly and helpful.

Nice cozy place to dine.. the food is to die for!! Amazing food and very good service!! I would recommend this place for a nice quiet evening out with close friends.

I dont know where to begin . Last night I attended a private function with family and friends. Short story...the staff and service was absolutely fantastic .

Nice place for drinks and food. Had a great time

Fantastic place, great atmosphere, really friendly staff, and super great food selection.

Friendly service and exceptional food choices

First time going out since the pandemic. Very impressed with the new patio outside to accommodate for social distancing. All the staff are friendly and diligent, the service was quick and food was great. Thank you Spice Lounge and Tapas!

Great patio great service.

Service and food were both great! Will be back soon.

First time i visited this place and i loved it! Not only are the people so nice and kind but the atmosphere is soo relaxing! I enjoyed the patio soo much and the food was amazing especially the veggie flatbread! Keep smilin everyone as you are all doing a great job!!!

Nice food and nice service.

Food was really yummy. Drinks and service amazing. Wait was way too long . We did go on a Saturday night but it took forever.

Great food but the staff here really makes this place rock. Andy, Meg, Christian, Tiago, Nelson,Ryan,Jessica, Mark and all the rest of the wonderful people will make sure youre well looked after. This is the hottest spot in the Port and they deserve to flourish! Great owners - they treat their staff and customers very well.

They are open! Take a walk behind it and youll find their lovely patio!! Great service good vibes

Phenomenal service, friendly staff, great food! Feels good to support local. (Very safe and sanitized, plexiglass in between tables, 6person max). Would recommend the duck flatbread, the tacos and the sangria. I encourage everyone to check out their patio and support local businesses :) will absolutely be returning!

Amazing experience always !!! Good food, good people. Good entertainment.

Excellent service and awesome staff

Food was great! Service was fantastic! Our server was so kind, down to earth, and funny :) We did find that the portions seemed to be a lot smaller than we remembered...just wish it were a bit more food:/

Only live music Ive heard since the Pandemic.. Cute patio menu.

Great place

Nice touch with the patio in the back. It was a good experience and it was a great concept considering how difficult it is to get out. Picnic benches get a little uncomfortable after about an hour but still good. The octopus was cooked very well and the tacos were good. Only drawback was that the drinks were fairly watered down for the price (Mojito and Sangria) and Ive had better tacos that were less expensive in a fancier downtown Toronto restaurant.

Great place for catching up with friends.

Good food. Love the ambience

Octapus was the bomb!

This place is excellent! I can describe the food, the service, etc. But Id rather summarize it as starting from the quality-driven and success-minded approach to detail that the owners take, relentlessly!

Great patio

They take reservations but don t honour them. We made a reservation for 9:30pm, arrived on time only to be told that we d have to wait. Ended up waiting over 30 minutes and we re not seated so we left. What s the point of taking online reservations if you don t honour them?

ive been coming here ever since moving to the neighbourhood several years ago. the food spice offers is just so unique with such impeccable quality... yes its by no means economical given the price wrt portion, but tapas is in their name and if you are looking for food instead of feed, look no further. from the balance in flavours to the balance in ingredients, their food just make sense.

Nice and cozy place. Reasonable priced decent food.

Nice ambiance. Great food. Perfect menu for sharing dishes.

Great food.

Bad crowd
