Spice Spirit — Restaurant in Jersey City

Very disappointing experience. After waiting 20 minutes, the staff told us the main dish we ordered was unavailable. When I asked for a refund, they said the refund machine was “broken” and suggested we swap our main course for appetizers at “the same price.” However, those appetizers were clearly cheaper, and the staff even tried to claim the printed menu price was “outdated.” I checked the online menu, prices were the same. This kind of dishonest behavior feels like a scam. Mistakes happen, but misleading customers to cover them up is unacceptable.

Or do you want to prove your appetizer is the same price as your main dish? Would love to go for a visit and see your updated menu where the price of maindish is the same as your appetizer:) or you want to tell me 19.14=13.14? I understand business needs some flexibility but don’t act like i am stupid this is really...

Pretty good Chinese food option in the Hoboken/JC area

It’s not easy to find good Chinese food option although there are many restaurants around the area.

Ling Long Xuan was my favorite but they seem to have closed recently.

Food we ordered were generally pretty good. Mapo tofu was flavorful with hint of mala, Dan Dan noodle was also good with a hint of spice, dumplings were nice and chewy with nice filling inside.

I would say sesame chicken and general Tso chicken were probably the most disappointing dishes. While it wasn’t bad, you honestly can’t even tell which is which Bc they just taste the same (might I add they look the same?)

Overall, this is my new goto delivery in the area! I would def give it a try. Try the tofu and...

This place used to be decent-- basic Chinese takeout at a reasonable price-- but has declined, esp. in terms of service. The last couple of times I went there, the guy behind the counter was so busy chatting that he barely noticed me. I also had to wait close to half an hour for my order, which wasn't 100% correct (white rice instead of brown, which I'd ordered) and not that good in terms of flavour (I ordered sesame tofu, and the nuggets were heavily battered and overfried).

Never going...
