Best Waterfront Restaurants in Bridgeport

We love this place in the summer. The windows and doors are always open, eliminating the intense noise level you fave in the old months with all that shut. The service was good! The food was mediocre. I had a salad with salmon, and my husband had a steak salad. Portions were just enough. My salad, while good, was not a $21 salad. It was lettuce, with dried cranberries and some gorgonzola cheese. There was supposed to be apples on it, but I didn't see any, then an overcooked piece of salmon on top. That's it. Drinks are another topic entirely. I ordered a "holiday special" margarita. The first drink was alcohol laden. Almost too much so. The 2nd tasted entirely different and was heavy on the lime juice. Neither was good, but at $12, I didn't expect a lot. Bottom line - great for a quick bite, a large party, or a young crowd. If you are looking for a date night restaurant and are over the age of 45, skip it and try it for lunch in the summer months.

We enjoyed our first Thanksgiving at La Plage and both the service and food were superior. We have gratitude for the La Plage teams who spent time away from their own families to create something special for their customers. As always, we look forward to our next La Plage experience.

The ambient soundtrack, not heavy metal or rap but I caught Jon Bon Jovi in ther, tells you something about this restaurant’s schizophrenic identity. The menu is almost excessively wide-ranging, from wings to lobster, in an sattempt to appeal to all comers, yet the prices invite a somewhat higher-incomed clientele. The interior is hardscaped, with no sound-absorbing fabric in sight(except the napkins) amidst the poured flooring, floor-to-ceiling windows and granite tabletops. The service was accomodating but slow at obvious transition points in the progression of the meal. Our order: appetizer of calamari was plentiful, oddly(for me) sprinkled with gorgonzola and drizzled with balsamic but delicious; an ahi tuna salad ( beautifully presented) and a clam and bacon flatbread that seemed a bit overdone/crispy. Two proseccos, a glass of pinot grigio and a bill of $120…. I want to try this location on a summer evening when there’s outdoor dining and enough light to enjoy the harborviews. Otherwise, it is not a top choice in several categories

We had a wonderful meal with friends. A very large group came in and were very loud (obviously not the restaurants fault) which made it difficult to hear ourselves. Overall the food and service were wonderful.

We love the atmosphere of the smaller dining rooms at the Snapper. The views of the river and marina beyond the lawn make it very soothing. The food is always top notch.
