Editorial Review for Spice Street – by Alice Bumgarner

In Short
Take a moment to gawk at the vast, gorgeous space; to the right, a striking dining room with a bar and lounge spills out onto a patio. To the left is a spice, tea and olive market outfitted with slinky teak tables and chairs. The dining room is dominated by overhead lighting that looks like enormous alabaster trumpet bells. Spice Street has a diverse menu that includes soups, flatbread pizzas and seafood.

The chef prepares the salmon a little rare, so specify if you want it cooked longer.

Good food but only if you have an eating disorder.....lame lame lame lame lame lame portions!!! I've travelled all over the US and this is one of the worst rip-offs yet. Shame on the owners. You'll leave hungry and disappointed. We weren't going to say anything until a table of 12 next to us had a five minute conversation about how small their portions were too. We actually leaned over and talked to them for a minute about it! Unbelievable how this joint has pushed the limits of acceptable amount of food per price! Shame on you Spice Street....we left hungry after dropping over 120 bucks.

Pros: Food tastes good.

Cons: Ridiculously small portions and extremely over-priced.

Spice Street definitely has the potential for great atmosphere but it fails to truly impress. Each time I've been there the bartenders have outrageously overcharged. $14 for a mixed drink and a beer, when it should have been $9, and $8 for a $6 LIT that didn't come close to actually resembling a Long Island Iced Tea. When you pay such a high cover to get it, it is definitely not worth going to a strip mall establishment like Spice Street to get sub par service.

Pros: Classy

Cons: Over-priced
