| - The end unit at 170 Lakeshore Rd. E. in Port Credit has been many things over the years - a bistro, an upscale restaurant, and most recently, Wingporium. Is the third time the charm?
I actually stayed away from this place for a long while because I wasn't sure if it was going to stick around long enough to make an impact, but I eventually went with a group of friends and was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food.
On both occasions I've been there, I've ordered the Cajun Creole wings, which I enjoyed greatly. The prices are fairly reasonable (there's also an AYCE option for just over $20 which seems quite good too, although I haven't tried it yet). I also give them kudos - I attempted a suicide-level hot wings challenge with my friends, and when I couldn't finish the order, they gave me a replacement order of a less-hot wing (the aforementioned Cajun Creole) at no charge.
Wingporium seems like a solid place to go and hang out with friends. I only dock a point because, while I like the design and interior of the restaurant (sans its darkened back area), the patrons are either the usual bar patrons or just really sketchy. Both times I've went, I've had to deal with leering looks from customers and at least one drunk person each time who tried to strike up a conversation with me.
Still, it's a very solid place to go for great wings, and there's a lot to love here. Recommended.
