Best Casual Restaurants in Southport

Great food, drinks service, and ambiance! And the location was just as beautiful.

Outstanding Service, lovely food and charming atmosphere. Burgers, truffle fries, Desert Board and Gingerbread Chai Latte were very tasty. We were seated outside under heaters which was perfect thanks to good weather. They offered Seasonal Cocktails and they were passing hors d'oeuvres while we were waiting to be seated. This cafe is situated in Terrain and it was so beautifully decorated for Christmas including a snow machine. This was my 2nd visit and Restaurant staff are excellent.

We like La Plage. Great for date night, but can get a bit loud if your table ends up next to a larger group. Service was excellent. I had the filet and my lovely and brilliant wife had the branzino, both prepared beautifully. They seem to have solved the heating problem in the outdoor transitional space.

Being very familiar with the always popular Sally’s in New Haven, I was happy to find the same great pizza here! Staff is terrific as well, very friendly and accommodating.

My wife and I had a lovely evening dining at South Bay for the first time. The food and drinks were outstanding, and the place has a fun vibe; upscale enough for a special occasion (there was a birthday, a first date, and parents visiting their college student around us) but relaxed enough for a spontaneous night out like ours was. We will definitely be back, with friends!
