REVIEW | Snug Harbour - Port Credit's restaurant with an unbeatable view

Patio season has arrived in Ontario, Canada (it's really about time)!  With the weather getting warmer everyday, there's more of a reason to dine Al fresco at restaurants with outdoor spaces.  And what makes Snug Harbour special? They've located in Port Credit Marina, overlooking the water, where you can enjoy great food with a great view.


There's lots of seating inside and outside.  If you're going to sit outside and it's a bit chilly, don't worry.  They have outdoor heaters all around the deck!  The inside is more of a formal environment.


 

On Saturday night, they had a live band playing some great music.  It was busy as usual with lots of couples, families and groups coming in and out steadily.  If you visit during the weekend, you will for sure see a line up.  Don't worry though, they're very efficient and you won't have to wait too long!


The restaurant has an impressive Oyster Bar Selections.  My friends had these to start and they said it was one of the freshest oysters they've had in Toronto.  Below are a dozen oysters, served with traditional seafood sauce and horseradish.  Check out their Oyster Bar Menu HERE.  If you're not into oysters, you may want to go for the East Coast Mussels - DELICIOUS!



 The Grilled Salmon was a good size and cooked perfectly.  It's served with rice and sauteed vegetables.  You can get potato of the day instead of the white rice if you wish.  They have plenty of other seafood selections such as Fish & Chips, Rainbow Trout, Scallops or even Catfish!

The Seafood Tagliatelle was light, fresh and very tasty.  The combination of Chorizo and the different shell fish was perfect.  I especially liked the addition of chili peppers - without it, it could have been a bit bland.  There was a good amount of clams, shrimp and mussels in there.


For dessert, we got two scoops of chocolate ice cream, served with some whipped cream and a slice of their Carrot Cake.  The Carrot Cake really impressed us.  The creamcheese wasn't overwhelming but it added the perfect amount of sweetness to the dessert.  We couldn't get enough of it!


Port Credit is such a nice area and Snug Harbour Restaurant gives us more of a reason to go often.  Their friendly & helpful staff, delicious food and the amazing view makes this place a great place to dine with your family, friends or for a romantic dinner date.  Make sure you go for a nice little walk after wards in the park!
