Yesterday, I had some friends in town who wanted Jamaican food, so we decided to try Spice House. We had a reservation, but despite having one, we waited approximately an hour to two hours to be seated. Since it was a Saturday night and the venue is relatively small, I do recommend making reservations, although there may still be a wait on certain days. The restaurant does allow individuals to be served at the bar without reservation. Once we were seated, we noticed that the restaurant was extremely hot. I'm not sure if they do not have air conditioning or if it was simply not working that day, but it made the experience uncomfortable. Despite the wait and the heat, the food was delicious and had great flavor. We also enjoyed the beautiful live music and had a really good time overall The waitress was very friendly and waitress was knowledgeable, and there is paid parking available for $10. Overall, the food was magnificent and the live music was beautiful, and we had a good time. However, the long wait and the extreme heat inside the restaurant did impact the overall experience. read more

I thoroughly enjoyed my experience at Spice House Midtown. The service was excellent and our waiter was extremely attentive. The food was amazing. We ordered the oxtail dip and it was so flavorful. I ordered the Rasta Pasta with blackened salmon. The portion was huge and I left with plenty of leftovers. The restaurant had a live band and the music filled up the room. read more

Spice house's interior has seen better days. But is the food still delicious, yes. I went for happy hour so I ordered rum punch, wings, oxtail egg rolls and margaritas. The drinks I wouldn't come back for but the food I would. Scanning a QR code for the menu always takes service down a notch for me. But that is the set up here. My waiter barely came to my table but I think the floor was understaffed. I do like when the QR code shows you a running bill and lets you pay. That is a great feature. Maybe Spice House can add that along with free/validates parking. $10 is not a large amount to play for parking but $0 is better. I won't be back for a dine in experience. Maybe take out is the way to go. read more

I went for brunch and really enjoyed the the food and ambience. I had the plantain chicken and waffles which were delicious and my table got the mimosa bottle which includes champagne bottle for the table and juice. Recommend to order this for group of 2-4. I would say some of their seating has a great amount of wear and tear into the booth sections. I had to put a napkin down on the seat so the ripped leather didn't irritate my legs read more

I am someone who gives a great deal of grace, especially to those working in hospitality, because I understand the stress of dealing with multiple personalities and high-pressure environments. Unfortunately, this experience was extremely disappointing. I visited from Texas and came with a friend who is local. We ordered three crab clusters each at the same time. My friend received her order correctly, while I was initially brought only one crab leg. When I explained that this was not my order, the server simply walked away without addressing the issue. I later flagged down my waitress, who assured me she would personally bring the correct order. After quite some time passed, she returned asking how my food was, despite never having brought it. Eventually, I received only two clusters instead of the three ordered. When I pointed this out, the waitress attempted to convince me that the two clusters on the plate were actually three, then she left and came back with a manager who clearly acknowledged that there were only two clusters served. After finally receiving the third cluster, I was told there were no utensils available to crack the crab legs. Unless you have very strong hands, I would not recommend ordering them. To make matters worse, our waitress disappeared for long stretches of time. We repeatedly had to ask other staff members for a to-go box and our check, both of which took an excessive amount of time to receive. When the waitress finally returned with the bill, she had the audacity to ask how the meal was. What stood out most was that the guests seated on both sides of us were also visibly frustrated and discussing the poor service they had experienced. An 18% gratuity was automatically added to the bill, and many of us came to the same conclusion: because the tip is guaranteed, the quality of service is none existent. read more

This past Saturday a friend came to town and wanted to check this spot out. I called before driving to midtown to ask if we needed reservations and to determine if they had a dedicated parking lot. I was advised that we could just walk in if we were planning to dine within the next. 30 min or so. That would be around 5pm on a Saturday. Regarding parking - I was told there is a desiccated parking lot. It is valet parking for $10. When we pulled up it was clear that the valet parking was NOT really valet parking . Don't expect your door to be opened, your car to be parked for you, or it to be dropped off to you upon your departure! Honestly they should just ditch the "valet" and say that there is a charge of $10 to park. When we walked in we were greeted by a nice sign and a host stand. We were immediately seated at a table near the restrooms. There were plenty of staff working, yet there was a delay in an initial greeting by our wait staff. After about 10-15 minutes a wait staff did finally ask if anyone had assisted us. We told her no. At this point our wait staff decide to speak up and say yes it's my table! Once our wait staff finally came over she took our drink orders. When she returned with the drinks we placed our food order. I opted to go with the turkey wing plate and my friend ordered the oxtails. In addition to the entrees we ordered a side of plantains and coco bread. The food came out fast! Honestly I feel like most of this food is cooked ahead of time and there is no reason to delay bringing it out- so I am ok with the food coming out quickly. After we blessed the food we dug in! The coco bread was nothing special. Honestly it tasted like regular white bread to me. From past dinning experienced the coco bread here is not the correct texture or taste. Maybe there are different types of coco bread??! The turkey wing had great flavor but were tough and not fall off the bone tender. I took them home and cooked them in the oven to have that fall off bone experience. I enjoyed the taste of the rice that accompanied my meal as well as the plantains. My friend said the food had a good taste, but the oxtail were too small for the price of the meal. I will say that I think they should take more pride in presentation. The oxtail plate has gravy dripping down the side of the plate when it was placed on the table. (See picture attached). Overall, the service ended up being decent, it's a low key vibe and the food is ok. Will I go out of my way to return- no. It was not a memorable experience. read more

Parking: There is a lot in front of the business with a valet, but it is self-parking for a $10 fee. Street parking is free, but the attendant let me know he frequently sees break-ins, so i opted to park in the lot. The overall aesthetic of the restaurant was fine. There was light music in the background and it presented as a casual place! Plenty of people at the bar, enough space for a graduation party, and a nice, enclosed patio area that I'd like to sit on next time! Drinks: I had whatever form of tropical mimosa they had. It took a while to reach our table, but it was good! Food: I had the curry goat and my friend had the coconut curry shrimp dish. Portions were good, presentation was good, and the food was served fresh and hot. Service: This is where they lost me at. Initially, our server was very kind and attentive, however, after she took our food orders she was almost impossible to track down. We were trying to identify her to flag her down for napkins, but she didn't even look our way as she dropped napkins off on the table directly next to us that was so close I could tap the next patron's shoulder. When it was time to pay, we had to flag down the manager who then was having trouble using the POS system and unable to find our waitress which further prolonged our stay at the restaurant. When we finally did get the bill, it had an automatic gratuity which we were told is mandatory. Automatic gratuity makes sense so everyone makes their money, but is not a free-pass to not give service to your tables and disappear. Not sure if she went on break or not, but future-state, i would recommend getting someone else to cover the tables you're responsible for. If I came back, it would be for take-out. read more

I came here spontaneously because I saw a post on IG. It was after brunch so the dj was wrapping up. I was warmly greeted and offered a table or seat at the bar, I opted for a seat at the bar. The music selection was cool. I was dancing in my seat the entire time. My server was Nelly B and she let me know that it would take a while for my food order since they were switching over to dinner, so I ordered the Jerk chicken egg rolls and a lemon drop. My egg rolls were ok but my drink was really good! My meal eventually arrived, I ordered the pineapple chicken rice. It arrived in a carved out pineapple, which was really cool. On a scale of 1 through 5, I would give it a 3.5. Overall, I will definitely return for their live band and maybe another item on their menu. read more

Made a reservation for Saturday brunch and were able to get seated right away. It was very lively and the music was coming from the DJ in the room, but it was pretty loud and hard to hear each other. We ordered the Jerk Chicken eggroll which was good and the Shrimp and Grits which was great. I declined the valet only parking and parked down the road for much much cheaper. read more

The vibe is great here! I will absolutely give them that. Was greeted by the waiter not too shortly after I was seated and was able to order the Oxtail Dip and Pineapple Paradise. The appetizer was fantastic. Those chips were the best I've ever had. Extremely crunchy and tasted good all by themselves too! The dip was very rich and cheesy & the oxtail fell off the bone. My Pineapple Paradise drink supposedly had tequila in it, but it just tasted like a good juice. I had asked if there was actually liquor and I was told it sneaks up on you, but there was no sneaking after I had finished the whole thing lol. Now the downside of this visit is the fact that it took 45 minutes before the waiter came back to my table to take my order for an entrée. It seemed he was more interested chatting with the table that smelled like a dispensary when they walked in and dancing around the restaurant, not even glancing at my table. It was unacceptable and by the time my food came, I had about three bites and was ready to skidaddle. The Rasta Pasta w/ Oxtail was very good from what I had, but doesn't heat up well at all the next day! First time having Coco Bread as well & it was great. read more

I went to Spice House in Midtown with some friends on a Monday around 6:30 and the restaurant was pretty empty, which was nice. Our server Diamond did an excellent job explaining the menu and giving details on certain items. The food came out hot and quick. I ordered the oxtail egg rolls and this was the first time I had them presented with whole pieces of oxtail on top. It was such a nice touch and of course they were delicious. The sauce that came with it was perfect. I also tried their happy hour specials. The tropical long island was so good, I could not tell you what is in it but it hit the spot. I ordered the five piece lemon pepper wings and they were fried to perfection. Fried hard and exactly how I like them. I tried some of the oxtail fried rice which came with oxtail on the side and some fries too. This is hands down my favorite Spice House location. The food is always good every time I come. On certain nights they have live music or DJs which adds to the vibe. One thing to note is there was no valet charge this past Monday and I appreciated that. read more

The food was really good and presented well however the service was absolutely not the greatest and it felt like the staff were more interested in hanging out and talking amongst each other than serving. I'm not a fan of hookah being smoked inside especially since the seating area inside isn't the most spacious. Not sure if I would come back but the food was really good. My curry goat was cooked tender too, which is a plus. The Oxtail dip (not pictured was PERFECT) and they didn't hold back on the meat. I definitely got my moneys worth. read more

We had a great time celebrating my mom's birthday brunch at Spice House Midtown. We made reservations ahead of time, and they seated us promptly as soon as we arrived. The food and service were both fantastic. The ambiance was nice, it had a bohemian island vibe. We started with the jerk chicken and oxtail egg rolls and the fried green tomatoes, and they were all really good. For the main course, I had the shrimp and grits, my mom had the lobsterman fried rice, my daughter had the French toast, and everyone else had the island boy breakfast. Everything was so delicious and the portions were so filling that I couldn't even finish mine! I really love how this location fuses different Caribbean island flavors with American dishes. I'd definitely recommend it and we will definitely be back! read more

Spice House Midtown feels like a place that actually takes pride in its food, not just the presentation. From the moment the dishes hit the table, you can tell the flavors are intentional--nothing tastes rushed or thrown together. The seasoning is layered, the portions are generous, and everything comes out hot and fresh. The lobster mac & cheese is easily the highlight. It's rich and creamy without being greasy, with tender chunks of lobster throughout instead of being buried under cheese. The pasta is cooked perfectly, and the sauce has depth--savory, slightly buttery, and well-seasoned so the lobster still shines. It's the kind of dish you order "just to try" and end up guarding your plate. The Havana paella balances the menu beautifully. The rice is fluffy and flavorful on its own, and the pineapple adds a subtle sweetness that feels fresh, not sugary. Every bite has contrast--warm, savory elements mixed with bright, tropical notes--making it both comforting and refreshing. It's filling without being heavy, which makes it a great option whether you're eating light or pairing it with richer dishes. Overall, Spice House Midtown delivers a consistently satisfying experience. The food feels thoughtfully prepared, the flavors are bold but balanced, and the standout dishes make it clear this isn't just another trendy spot--it's somewhere you'd actually come back to. read more

I was really looking forward to trying the oxtail egg rolls, but they were a huge disappointment. They were extremely dry ,and the filling was mostly cabbage with very little oxtail. The meat that was there was dry and lacked the rich, flavorful taste you'd expect from oxtail. The egg roll itself was overcooked and tough, making the whole thing feel heavy rather than crispy. Even the dipping sauce couldn't save it. For the price, I expected something much better. Based on this experience, I wouldn't order the oxtail egg rolls again or recommend them. P.S - the food has frostbite bite read more

Went for a special that was advertised on their account. $5 crab while supplies last and $5 drinks all night. The restaurant stated that the promotion was for $5crab clusters only and that the drinks were normal price. The management said that the post was for an old promotion (even though it was posted the day prior saying that they would have it EVERY THURSDAY. The management refused to honor it. They also advertised a live DJ but there was no dj until later on (maybe almost 8 pm) Decided to stay anyway for the $5 crab which is still a great deal. The crab was great and the sauce was flavorful. Ordered 2 drinks that were very good and strong. (Had a lemon drop and a vodka soda) Service: the interaction upon first entering was a little awkward. The hostess seemed a bit frazzled. There were not any greetings or pleasantries exchanged. however, we were quickly seated for our reservation. Once seated, it took quite a while to be helped. Once the waiter came she was very friendly and had a positive attitude. Table was very sticky, even after we asked the waitress to wipe it down. Unsure if it was the material of the table or what. It was unpleasant and everything- including napkins and my purse stuck to the table. Parking: there is a self parking lot but it's $10. There is free street parking if you are able to find a spot but we were warned that the area has frequent break ins. Overall the 1 star is for false advertising. If there's a promotion being advertised, it should be honored. Especially with it being just the day before read more

I experienced my first visit at Spice House Midtown after hearing about it for awhile. I decided to give it a try this week for my husband's birthday because he loves Caribbean and Haitian food and this restaurant offers both. Well...the food was okay. He loved the black rice. The service was poor. For a Tuesday night, I would've expected to have great service. We were sat in the bar area and had the bartender as our server - just not the greatest. Mostly dry and seemingly preferring to be behind the bar. We waited FOREVER for our appetizers (oxtail dip 10/10) and FOREVER MORE for our entrees with no real explanation, apology or anything else. The owner/manager (assume that's who she was just watching her movement) never spoke, apologized or asked if we were okay when she saw us sitting there for an extended period without our food. At the end, she finally asked how everything was but by that point, I wasn't impressed. It just wasn't what I expected overall. I was very surprised to receive bottled rum punch as I just knew it would be freshly made. The booth we sat at needed to be reupholstered. Overall, I was disappointed, especially given that it was my husband's birthday. I'm not sure I will be back. read more

This is a restaurant I visit often, but unfortunately, my experience tonight was very disappointing. I went into the restaurant and spoke with a newly hired host to make a reservation for a party of nine. My group arrived about 20 minutes late because I needed everyone in the party to be present before we were seated. When I confirmed with the host that all of my guests had arrived, she informed me that our table had been given away. I told her that we could simply leave and dine elsewhere since we were late. However, she insisted that if we waited about 20 more minutes, they would definitely be able to accommodate us. I specifically asked if she was sure, and explained that we were willing to go somewhere else rather than continue waiting. Based on her assurance, we decided to stay. Unfortunately, after waiting 45 minutes, our table was still not ready. A supervisor/manager did approach us and ask what could be done to improve the situation, which I appreciated. However, the host's handling of the situation did not help resolve the issue. She could benefit from additional training in customer service and professionalism, especially since hosts are often the first point of contact and represent the face of the restaurant. When I politely asked for her name, she refused to provide it. On a positive note, the parking lot attendant was excellent and provided the best customer service experience we had all evening. I hope management takes this feedback seriously so future guests do not have a similar experience. read more

I had a mixed experience here. The drinks were good, the bartender was really nice, and the manager was polite and professional, so I want to acknowledge that up front. The issue was with a $26 dish I ordered that ended up being far too spicy for me to eat. I only took a few bites before realizing I couldn't finish it. The staff did offer me another item, which I appreciated, but I declined. The entrée was partially comped, but the main dish was taken away. I was allowed to keep the side of mac and cheese that came with it. In the end, I paid $15, essentially for a side, which didn't feel like a fair resolution. I would have been much happier either having the entrée fully comped or discounted and allowed to take it with me. I understand spice level is subjective, but the way this was handled felt more policy-driven than customer-focused. read more

Decide to try out the $5 snow crab with my fiance and had an absolutely subpar experience. I arrived at 4pm and was told we would have to wait 25mins for the crabs to finish cooking so we decided to order a Rasta Pasta while we waited. The crab legs came out an hour later at 5pm. The pasta came out around 5:30pm after asking where it was at. The food was delicious. The Rasta Pasta was great and the crab legs were good. I understand they were slammed with customers so I'm more forgiving for the wait. The service was absolutely terrible. As more customers arrived, the attitude of the waiters also increased. We saw our waiter maybe 4 times the entire time including asking for the check. She brought out our food but gave us no utensils. So we sat there staring at our food for about 10 minutes until a nice guy sweeping the floor came by and he provided us the utensils to actually eat the food. We never got any refills on our drink bc our waiter was never around. When we did see our waiter she was walking outside on her phone multiple times. When it was time to order more food we had to ask another employee to take our order bc our waiter was nowhere to be found. It took so long for the food to come out that I got up to tell our waiter to cancel our order so we can just leave. She told us to hold on as she walked into the kitchen. Our food was now magically ready or maybe our waiter didn't care to check on it. The biggest slap in the face was having to pay gratuity on a party of 2 with absolutely terrible service. I've ate at restaurants around the world and this establishment has the award for worst service. Maybe the gratuity on any size party insentivize some employees to not care about their quality of services. The table next to us was having similar issues so this is not a 1 waiter issue. Both of our tables were talking about how we will never return. I don't recommend this establishment not based off the food but how terrible the service was. read more
