A Flavorful Jamaican Experience at Spice it's name give a real meaning. Spice is a hidden gem that brings the vibrant flavors of Jamaica to life. During my recent visit, I had the pleasure of savoring their renowned Brown Stew Chicken, and I must say, it exceeded all expectations. The Brown Stew Chicken at Spice is a true culinary masterpiece. The tender chicken pieces were bathed in a rich, aromatic stew sauce that was bursting with Caribbean spices. Each bite was a delightful blend of savory and slightly sweet flavors, leaving me longing for more. What impressed me further was Spice's impeccable takeout service. Even as a takeout order, the chicken arrived piping hot and beautifully presented. The packaging was secure, ensuring that the flavors and textures remained intact during transportation. The portion size was generous, making it a perfect choice for a satisfying meal at home. Alongside the Brown Stew Chicken, the sides of rice and peas were cooked to perfection. The fragrant rice was fluffy and accompanied by tender kidney beans, creating a delightful harmony of flavors. Spice Restaurant's commitment to quality and authenticity really shines through in their Brown Stew Chicken. The flavors transported me straight to the streets of Jamaica, evoking a sense of nostalgia and adventure. The staff at Spice were friendly and accommodating, offering excellent customer service. They took the time to explain the menu and made helpful recommendations based on personal preferences. Their attention to detail and passion for their cuisine truly elevated the dining experience. Whether you're a local or a visitor, Spice Restaurant is a must-visit for anyone seeking an authentic taste of Jamaica. With their outstanding Brown Stew Chicken and impeccable takeout service, Spice truly captures the essence of Jamaican cuisine, leaving diners with a memorable and...

Never been disappointed as I am today, been coming here for 5 years to support this business because I genuinely enjoyed the food. Today that changed when a new young staff served me what seems to be left over pieces of shredded chicken. I ordered the brown stew chicken with rice and peas and cabbage. As the server was making my large plate I asked her not to give me broken pieces. She gave me two small portions of whole chicken and the rest of it was broken shredded chicken which amounted to one extra piece of it had not been broken, so I paid for three pieces of chicken for what should have been a large which usually includes about 5 good pieces. Then she literally gave me one scoop of cabbage that were over cooked and needless to say I’m highly disappointed for her service. The owner was there but she is not approachable as she never smiles and always seems to just want to get people in and out her business. I think I will no longer support places like this although in the past I have enjoyed their food today was just trash of food service and poor quality of food. I took a pic of my served plate for reference. They sure show favoritism in cultures as well as in the past I’ve noticed they give more rations to the African Americans vs the other...

I have been coming here for awhile after searching for some good carribean food. I must admit that that curry chicken and spicy beef patties are delicious. The jerk chicken to me is awful after trying it 2 times. This is all I have tasted. Even though it is small inside it is nice and clean. I often thought about dining in. However that stank attitude that the female owner has is terrible. She always act mad and take it out on her customers. Maybe if you didn't act so funky you could keep some workers and don't always have to be trying to run the whole store. She is the worst. All I want to do is get my food and get out of there before I caught that stank attitude too. I'am just coming to get some food, that's all! She went up on the prices but give you the same portion. How is this even possible. Giving me mostly bones with no meat and get mad when you ask for carrots and potatoes. Make that make sense. Some people take their customers for granted until they don't have none. I hope to find someone else to go soon so I don't have to put up with this miserable person every time I come in there often and she never smiles. If you don't want to deal with people, you should just close down!!! People want good food with good service! If I could give a zero...

I stopped here for lunch today. I was WOWED with how clean the outside was and WOWED again with a very warm welcome from the gentleman and lady that was serving and cashing out. I was coming from a 1 hour drive and needed to use the restroom. The restroom was the cleanest restroom I have ever used at a Jamaican restaurant located in America. Everything was going well until I disappointed myself by only being able to eat one meal. I had a mixed lunch (fried chicken and curry goat). The curry goat was seasoned to the bone and very soft. I usually don't eat chicken breast/ white meat, but that's all they had left, so I took a chance and never had any regrets. The chicken was soft, well fried, seasoned, and juicy. Don't think I need to say much more. The evidence is in the picture showing what was left of my meal.

The young lady that answered the phone when I called was helpful as I explained this is my first time patronizing this business. The service was excellent. I ordered curry goat, it’s spicy and delicious. They give you a lot of food for your money. The coco bread was soft and the plantain was sweet and soft just the way I like it. I can’t rate the mac and cheese because I’m partial to my own lol. I highly recommend this restaurant. I’m picky and the restaurant was CLEAN! If I had to complain about anything it would be that they didn’t have any diet soda’s but that definitely isn’t a deal breaker for me. I’ll be back next week.
