Love Spices' food and service at every visit! Been here several times and never disappointed. For…read morethis visit, we ordered the Jumbo Curry Chicken with Yellow Rice and Cabbage and also the Jumbo Curry Shrimp with Rice/Beans and Plantains. Wonderfully seasoned and flavorful of the Caribbean for sure! Very robust flavors that is balanced. The service is always outstanding and they double check the food with you to ensure you received what you ordered -- quality control at the finest in their restaurant. The ambiance is always bustling and busy, but also you can see the staff take great care and pride in serving the best quality of food to its customers. Love coming here and luckily close by home.

So, sitting in my cousins livingroom debating what we were going to eat. I initially wanted Asian…read more Opened my DoorDash app and spices popped up. I asked my cousin because they live here. Whats better than supporting your own people, Caribbean it was. Ordered a Jumbo oxtail plate and a regular jerk chicken plate. Picked up the order bag was tied and ready to go. We left came to the house and opened them plates. Pure disappointment. I think the restaurant did this because the food was already paid for. EVERYONE WHO EATS HERE AND ORDERS ONLINE, HAVE THEM UNTIE THE BAG AND SHOW YOU YOUR FOOD. How does a Jumbo oxtail plate look like a regular plate? If i order extra gravy i want the gravy from the meat i ordered. Not a jarred sauce. My cousins jerk plate was dry as h3ll. I asked him has his plates in the past looked dry? He said no, he mentioned that his past plates the chicken is juicy with tons of gravy. Very disappointing for a black owned restaurant. I dont want to blame the restaurant as a whole as we know how the food comes out based on how the chef is preparing plates. The chef for September 09, 2026 was not hitting and needs to be reevaluated. I have let my family know who frequents this place to put that on pause. My cousin is already hesitant about returning. And i know when i return next year i definitely will not be back. I should have taken pictures but didnt. Just know people check your plates before you leave.

Where to start? It's all damn good. Jerk shrimp is made to order and is well worth the wait! Jerk…read morechicken? Yes, please! The jerk seasoning is spicy without being overly cruel to the gut. Magic sauce from the squeeze bottle near the counter thrown on top will cool it off a bit. The stewed beef... just order this. You won't regret your life choices. The little sweetness that underlies the savory gravy that tops this dish makes this recipe stand out compared to others. Rice and peas are the best mate for the gravy. Macaroni has just the right tang of creaminess. Cabbage is dreamy. Even the teen is obsessed with this dish! Large can easily be shared with teen. On to the oxtails. These are so dang good! Tender and makes you want to suck the juices right out the bone. Last, but not least, the cake slices. These are not the dried out slices at some brunch places. Moist and with just a touch of sweetness, each flavor I've had is delightful. Lemon has zing without too much sugar, strawberry is light and airy, and vanilla is no plain Jane! Closer to a pound or crumb cake, they are pleasantly dense. Try the real juices from the fridge for a deeply flavorful drink. Mango tastes like it was just juiced right in front of me. Owner is a total gem. Always seems to be in the back working hard and cooking up the best dishes. Very friendly! Plenty of seating inside, everything is packaged in to go containers.

We ordered the shrimp, crinkle fries, chicken wings (honey garlic flavor), blue velvet cake and Cajun curly fries, all at a decent and affordable price. They also have burgers, gyros, subs, gizzards, livers, oysters, fish, salads and dessert! The honey garlic wings were more honey sweet than garlic, hot and crispy. Both fries were amazingly hot and seasoned what seems like a garlic lemon peppery or ranch seasoning. Doesn't matter because it was still delicious! The shrimp had the perfect taste, crispiness and seasoning! And lastly, BLUE VELVET CHEESECAKE was heavenly and sweet! The cheesecake and cake blend were soft and so great! All were so good and looking forward to being broke!

Balla, the owner, was just as engaging--he came over to our table, interacted with the group, and even snapped a few pictures with us. That personal touch really stood out. The food was superb--perfectly seasoned, not overwhelming, and absolutely satisfying. The brown stew chicken was generous, cooked just right, and the meat fell right off the bone (even the bones were melting!). Someone else ordered the curry chicken and could not stop raving about it. Two others had the oxtails, and wow--the meat was overflowing out of the container, incredibly tender, and seasoned like it came straight from a Jamaican spot in Jamaica. Authentic is the only word that fits. The ambiance was great--nothing fancy, but full of Caribbean flavor with the music and layout setting the tone. There's also a bar area where the music spills into the street and the drinks flow freely, adding even more life to the experience. Several of the ladies in our group said they had no idea this place existed--even though they live nearby--but they'll definitely be back. This is a true slice of down-home Jamaican culture and cuisine, and Balla has created something special here. Highly recommend! scene?

The meal was flavorful and hot. I'm from Virginia, so I was in town visiting and it was good to find a good Caribbean food spot while visiting that tasted good. I'd recommend and if ever in the area again I'd like to see what their jerk chicken tastes like too.
