Spice N Nice 2 — Restaurant in Delaware

I’m going say that if you order the oxtails, check your boxes before you leave because you are going to be real mad when you go to open that now almost $30 box of nothing and there’s hardly any meat. They gave me oxtails that we’re barely the size of half dollars . LITERALLY. All mainly fat and gristle. I mean, I get that prices are going up everywhere but dang, give me what I pay for. Their large is now equivalent to a small but they pack you up with rice to make it seem like the box is full. The jerked chicken does not have a good Jamaican authentic flavor. It just taste like sugar to me. D&H has great jerked chicken but not so great oxtails. The prices at Spice n Nice are going up while the food quantity and quality are going down. It’s also worth noting that Mac n cheese is only served on Fridays, which I think is dumb. The store closes very early and they stay running out of things. They are also not big on customer service. I never feel appreciated as a customer in there. And I don’t even know why they have a telephone because they NEVER EVER answer it. I wish another good Jamaican place that has great oxtails would open up in the area cause Spice n Nice getting a little too ahead of themselves. The picture attached is enlarged so you could see the size of the oxtails. They were so small that I had to zoom in. And you could see that they only give you a few pieces in the large, and they are from the thinnest point...

I first started going to this establishment a few years ago because of word of mouth but this place is going downhill. The portions have gotten smaller, the prices have gone up and the food is becoming mediocre. There used to be a young lady that worked there that used to take care of everyone and made sure that the place ran smoothly but now there is some older woman who's only concern is how much money she can get you to spend. I have had the curried chicken which was good when I first started going there but sometimes, when I get it now, it's under cooked or I get three small pieces and mostly gravy. Once, they ran out of rice and peas and they threw some kind of sauce over some white rice, which was so nasty! I have also had the jerked chicken which is pretty good but not enough pieces! The price of the oxtails is ridiculous beings that you get mostly gravy and a few small oxtail pieces...very disappointing. I have not had any other dishes but based on what I have had, I would go back if I'm craving something spicy every once in a while but not on a...

Looking for a decent Caribbean meal, a friend recommended Spice N Nice. Hungry, and willing to explore, I visited Spice N Nice on a Thursday at approximately 2pm. The parking-various businesses competing for a limited amount of parking, in this small strip mall of stores. The restaurant-a small interior, was modest and busy. There was seating, and the ambiance (noise) was loud to me. Various customers ahead of me in line, I over heard them complaining that Spice N Nice often run out of certain dishes during the day. So, I ordered curry chicken, rice & pea with cabbage; and two beef Pattie’s. I waited about 15 minutes for my order. The food, priced at the industry standard, portions were good, and the food was tasty and appealing to the eye w/plenty of gravy. I would return and order a different dish, to compare my experiences. I was not blown away, with my first impression experience. I would recommend the restaurant to friends and family as one of several Caribbean restaurants...
