This restaurant is right in my neck of the woods! Used to be called McBeans, but now rebranded as “StarSpice”.
The other day I was given the curry chicken and fried rice and it was pretty decent. The rice was very good and carried the meal it alone I would give a 8/10.
From trying that I was eager to go inside and try more. I went recently and saw that they have jerk pork (which I love), but only on Fridays and Saturdays. Ironically it was a Friday, so I was lucky. The restaurant itself was very clean and there is some seating so you can sit indoors.
I've also been looking for a place that sells Chow mein as well and I was glad that it was sold here. I got the jerk pork, Chow me in (had to pay extra) and salad. The portion was very generous. They packed it up tight and added condiments. I even got to try a piece of their sorrel cake, and it was GOOD. The jerk pork I would give an 8/10 and the chow mein a 7/10.
Upon getting home, I was anxious to try it. With the first bite, it was very tender and fell off the bone. It was well seasoned and tasty. I took it slowly because I didn't want to finish it fast. The Chow me in was okay, I feel like it needed a bit more seasoning.
Overall, I would come back here! And did you know they have a $5 lunch special?!? From Monday - Saturday?! That's amazing!
Thank you for having me StarSpice! Until...
Read moreIf I could give Star Spice 10/10 Stars I would! I have been blessed to have had the opportunity to frequent this restaurant for several years. Every Friday I would look forward to trying their Curry Shrimp, yet as I began to explore more of the wide variety of Food that is available, truthfully I can say that their Menu has yet to disappoint me. If you are seeking to eat delicious food that is highly flavorful and made with Love, then surely you must pay a visit to Star Spice. The Rice & Peas is simply phenomenal! Try the Jerk wings & you will find that the meat slides right off the bone. The Cook-Up Rice is also VERY Nice. Their Rasta Pasta is A1, and as someone who is a Patty enthusiast, Their Freshly baked Patties are easily some of thee best I have ever had truly. The Staff here is just as amazing as the food! I can go on & on about how thankful I am to have discovered this restaurant, I highly recommend! to any & all in the Flatbush Junction Area. Thank you...
Read moreI recently stopped by this place for lunch and was created by to very polite young men. One stepped from behind the register to assist me so that I didn’t have to way inline. I ordered a Medium Oxtail with white rice and they told me the price ($18)it make sure that it was okay with me. I was sold with the signage outside that read “Known for the best jerk chicken.” In that area that’s a very bold statement to make. The place was well maintained inside. I tried their strawberry lemonade, I don’t think it’s a fixed item. One of the servers mentioned to me that they periodically switch up the flavors. The I’d rate the drink a 5/5 and the Oxtail a 3.5/5. It wasn’t terrible, I just expected a lot more. Next time I’ll go for what they’re known for. They also have a huge selection of various cake slices, I didn’t try any but I certainly plan on trying it in the future. Atmosphere I’d give them a 4.2/5 and a 5/5 for...
